Since 91.3esr update, over a period of a couple of days, if I open the Windows 10 hidden icons I will see a large number of FF icons that disappear immediately after I hover over them. Are these FireFox icons (see picture attached)? I also note that FireFox left untouched will be using 25% of my 32GB memory growing over a period of time. When first opened (I have restore previous sessions option selected), it is minimal memory usage.

I am on Win 10. But Firefox has never shown up there on any Windows version. This could be a Windows problem.

This may help, but I don't know. https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/13102-notification-area-icons-reset.html
