Why is that? I'm running quite heavy session on my Firefox (many tabs opened with Tab Groups addon) and it was always launching with 2 or 3 instances of firefox.exe (and that was good). But today, for no reason, nothing has changed, it launches with just one instance, and I can feel it. The whole browser is laggy and slow. I restarted it and it's still one instance. And it's not the first time it happened, few times in the past it did that. I don't know what's causing it to launch with only one instance. I can clearly feel the slow down that way. Can anyone explain this to me?

hi, incompatible addons that you install can disable the multiprocess mode - the https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ makes them visible in the addons manager.

I run firefox in safe mode, instead of installing another addon, and it still launched with one instance. Besides, as I said, nothing has changed, I didn't install any new addons, and non of the current ones updated, so everything is the same as yesterday.

I found two mentions of it (I have non english version of firefox). The first line from the picture says something like this: Multiprocess windows: 0/2 (disabled by availability tools)

And the other line says "true" in the "Enabled" column.

Ok, not much I understand from this. BUT:

Tools that can trigger disabling of electrolysis include:

  • Vision impaired related assistive clients (screen readers, magnifying glass clients)

Yesterday, by mistake, I launched the magnifying glass tool in Windows (I pressed Win key + NUMPAD+ by mistake), and closed it. So now you are telling me this disabled multiprocess in firefox for me? What can I do to enable it? Can I clear these two?

  • accessibility.lastLoadDate
  • accessibility.loadedInLastSession

yes, right-click and reset those two preferences and create a new integer preference called "accessibility.force_disabled" and set its value to "1".
