Since the update to 30.0 my firefox does not close correctly. One process is still there (and the parent.lock as well).


I tried so far: -reinstall with all information deleted - deactivate all Plugins and Extensions - shut it down via the menu.

I usualy love this browser and i use it for years.

Any Help?

Thanks in advance Thomas

Chosen solution

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode; Press the <Alt> or <F10> key to bring up the tool bar. Followed by;

Windows; Tools > Options Linux; Edit > Preferences Mac; application name > Preferences

Then Advanced > General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.
