I'm unable to select text for example on aliexpress.com on Windows 10 computer(s). I tried clean install, reinstall, downgrade, portable, I tried solutions from forum. Nothing helps.

FF on Linux works fine, FF 8.x works fine, Edge and Chrome works fine. Just FF 64.0 on two separate computers with Windows 10 works bad. Any ideas?

Thanks

V nouzovém režimu Firefoxu (podrž Shift při spouštění FF) to taky nejde? Taky je možnost, že to blokuje nějaký antivirák (dočasně ho komplet vypni).

No, safe mode not helped :( Antivirus will propably not block selecting text on several pages. But okay, I disabled all possible firewall, VPN and antivirus programs, problem is same. I'm unable to select any text, only in input boxes.

Nevím co s tím může být. Zkus si udělat na zkoušku nový profil Firefoxu. Používáš nějakou beta verzi Firefox 65. V tom může být taky problém.

I did full reinstall, including deleting all in /Program Files /ProgramData %APPDATA%... I tried several versions since FF 8.X. 8.X is okay, above 33.X is with error. I hope it will be something in rendering engine, but waht to disable? :(

Mimochodem cekal jsem, ze tohle je nejen ceska podpora :)
