Is there a basic incompatability between Firefox and current versions of Windows 10 that didn't exist with Windows XP?
I am running Windows 10 Home, version 10.0.15063, x64 bit on a Lenovo laptop, with 90% of 490GB disk free space and 6 GB available RAM. My security is Avira Premium Pro.
However with latest versions of Firefox, 54.0.1 currently, the browser loads slowly and erratically; there is difficulty opening files from Favorites list; my Gmail email loads and transmits erratically; large web sites, such as Facebook, PBS News, and others load very slowly and video streaming is interrupted; other video transmission is very slow; data feed, including video is hard to navigate with Firefox; as well as other irregularities that never existed with my Windows XP Home operating system on an older Dell PC. Can anyone tell me what is the basic problem, and where to find solutions?
