Cannot Type a Persian Character

more options

I had no problem, until I updated the FireFox to 48.0 version, and the problem was not solved in subsequent updates. The problem is still even in 49.0.1.

I am using Windows 8.1, 64 Bit. In FireFox I can not type "و". It is a character on Persian keyboard located on the right side of English character M.

Now, I am using 47.0.1 version without any problem.

I tested by changing the keyborad to Persian-Farsi in Win 7, no issue when using AZERTY keyboard.

Could you install the tool mozregression to narrow down a regression range in FF48, please. See http://mozilla.github.io/mozregression/ for details. Run the command --good=47 then copy here the final pushlog from the repository mozilla-inbound.

Thank you very much for your reply.

My keyboard layout is Persian (standard). There is no AZERTY keyboard. I saw AZERTY keyboard for Arabic language.
