While playing FarmVille 2 foxfire keeps hanging - says at top "not responding". I can load game and play for a few minutes but then hangs. Sometimes it hangs right after loading. Will not come back so I have to quit foxfire. I have been having the problem in last several weeks but yesterday it got really bad. I usually only had to restart foxfire once to get it to work. I have tried refreshing foxfire. Also disabling hardware acceleration. My plugins are up to date. My computer is only 1.5 years old and I have windows 10. I can play FV2 on Google Chrome and MSN edge but both are slow and jerky. I really prefer foxfire over the other ones.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?


Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe web sites. Is the problem still there?

I cleared the out of date java versions and it seemed to help but the not responding started up again. Starting in safe mode didn't even let me log into facebook but started not responding immediately.

Thanks FredMcD. I have 2 Facebook/FarmVille 2 accounts and it is taking me over twice the time to play on Edge or Chrome because they are slow and jerky. I really want Foxfire working again because it is so smooth and fast.

I was able to use another computer that still has windows 7 and I did not have any problems with the "not responding". I tried again on my computer which has windows 10 and the "not responding" happened again right after loading FarmVille 2.

This is a known issue with the new Flash Player 19.0 from Adobe as it is doing it in Chrome also with its Pepper Flash version of 19.0
