I believe so, but I cannot confirm. I did not experience this before updating.

Hi,

I have tested your issue on latest FF release 70.0.1, Beta 71.0b11 and latest Nightly build 72.0a1 (2019-11-20) and could not reproduce it using Ubuntu 18.04.

markppowers0, can you help us investigate? Please answer some questions:

  1. Can you reproduce in a newly created profile? (you have the steps here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Managing-profiles#w_starting-the-profile-manager)
  2. Does it reproduce in the latest Nightly? (http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/2019/11/2019-11-20-21-52-17-mozilla-central/Firefox%20Installer.en-US.exe) maybe even using safe mode (https://goo.gl/AR5o9d), to eliminate custom settings as a possible cause.
  3. Which exact Linux system are you operating while this issue reproduces?
  4. Did it reproduce in any other operating system than Linux?

Thank you for your cooperation!
