When typing in a text box or when I have a player stretched too full screen, the area i'am typing in keeps being deselected. The same thing with full screen. Its as if the mouse is clicking off the area I'm in but I am not touching the mouse or the laptop mouse pad. The cursor does not move when this happens either. It just happens.

Hi,

Please check if this happens in Safe Mode. Safe mode disables the installed Extensions, and themes (Appearance) in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Use hardware acceleration when available. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.
