Sometimes, when I am looking at a web page, some of the text disappears. The formatting and layout does not change, and it doesn't matter what colour of text or background is there. The text will become invisible starting at some point in the web page to some other point. I think that images remain visible, but I am not 100% certain. The text reappears when it is selected and then unselected (click-and-drag and [CTRL]+[A] both work). Note that the text disappears some time after the page is loaded (seconds to minutes). It first displays correctly and then disappears (I have watched it vanish).

The problem happens intermittently (probably between 10% and 1% of web pages opened). It has persisted through many update cycles of Firefox. I don't remember if it started with some Firefox update, or if it started when I got Windows 8.1. I think it happens more on pages with more text (many screens worth), but it could just be more noticeable there. I have seen it on the Facebook sign-in page.

Sorry, wrong one but if do have issues with Win 8.1 Above might be worth while.

This one please : uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files(x86) Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles
