All webpages show up as garbage text
I was using Firefox and my system was low on resources so it killed the process using the most memory which was Firefox. When it restarted every page showed up as garbage. I've cleared cache. I've refreshed Firefox. I've reinstalled. I've rebooted. Nothing seems to work. mozilla.org appears to work but every other site I try looks like the attached image. When I view the source of a page that looks like garbage, the source looks perfectly fine. I'm running 77.0.1 64 bit on Windows 7. Any ideas?

Do you possibly have disabled multi-process in Firefox by using the MOZ_FORCE_DISABLE_E10S=1 environment variable?
- Bug 1638652 - Content-Encoding not honored when e10s is turned off via browser.tabs.remote.autostart=false or MOZ_FORCE_DISABLE_E10S=1

This doesn't seem right.
Multi process Windows = 0/1Disabled forcibly
Remote Process = 0
While my laptop shows:
Multi process Windows = 1/1 Enabled by default
Remote Process = 8
Are you sure you removed the MOZ_FORCE_DISABLE_E10S environment because MOZ_FORCE_DISABLE_E10S=0 won't work (merely its presence is sufficient) ?
If that is the case then try to rename prefs.js in the profile folder (prefsOLD.js).
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Folder/Directory:
Windows: Open Folder; Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data
No MOZ_FORCE_DISABLE_E10S environment triple checked.
Created TEST new profile and set to start with new, rename pref.js to prefOLD.js
Now it's intermittent. some pages load ok, but then hyperlinks don't work, right click new tab and get garbage.
Seems ok for while on mozzila.org site then start to get garbage.
Is multi-process still disabled if you check this on about:support ?
Are there accessibility services active as reported on about:support ?

Will test some more tomorrow. now back to ver 76, but now how do I set default back to the profile I want. it keeps say you've launched an older ver of ff, to exit or create new profile, i want to start a specif profile and stick to it . using profile manger
Now im worse off im back to ver 76 but can't get FF to load or start or create new profile and cant change to a different profile listed. I click on FF icon to open and start, now it pops up to create new profile, or exit I do not want to create a new profile every time I start FF. forced to create another profile in order to get to about:profile to try and set the default profile.
ok finally got it to work. Hope this helps someone else. After doing lots of digging.
"You'll have to open it through a terminal: firefox -p "profile name" --allow-downgrade."
Note that it isn't recommended to downgrade a profile as it isn't guaranteed that the profile is still fully compatible.
ok checked accessibility
Activated = false
Prevent accessibility = 0
accessibility handler used = true
accessibility Instantiator = blank
Multiprocess Windows = 0/1 Disable forcibly
Could be this bug, affects ver 77 but not ver 76
tried browser.tabs.remote.autostart=false or true, this made no difference
MOZ_FORCE_DISABLE_E10S is not on my system
This bug was fixed for ver 78 Windows 10, I'm still using Windows 7.
Will go back to stable ver 76 for my system. This has consumed a great amount of my time. Will wait to a later upgrade maybe it will work correctly then.
cor-el --Thanks for all your help
