I reported this on Brave, my actual User-Agent is Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0 - I am running Firefox Developer Edition 91.0b9 (64-bit)

Additional Information: This worked fine in Win10 (Before upgrading to Win11's Development Builds) with the same Firefox Installation

Comment 3

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco/ :calixte]]

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Toolkit::Password Manager' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

[Sam Foster [:sfoster] (he/him)]

This is likely in the underlying widget/OS integration code. so lets try the Core::Widget::Win32 component

Maybe same cause as bug 1722208.

NoraUwU, I'm not able to reproduce this on Windows 11 (winver 10.0.22000.168 but not the "N" version). I've tried the latest Firefox release (dev edition), which is version 91.0.2 (you were using the 91 beta). With mozregression, I've tried Firefox builds (not dev edition) going back a year and I never see the issue you are reporting. Can you still reproduce this?

To be clear, my steps are:

For context menus:

• Launch Firefox in Windows 11
• Right click anywhere on the window (so, the window decorations, the window content, anywhere).
  Result: If a context menu should pop up, it does. For example, a right-mouse click on the address bar or on web content brings up a popup menu.

For password autofill:

• Launch Firefox in Windows 11
• Go to reddit.com and click "Log In".
• Enter something into the login fields and submit. When Firefox asks to "Save login?" click yes.
• Navigate to another page, then back to reddit.com
• Click "Log In", then click the username or password field.
  Result: The password autocomplete box comes up beneath that field.

Also, I'm running Windows 11 in a virtual machine. What type of setup are you using?

For completeness, I've tried this with the Windows 11 N beta and I can't reproduce the bug there either.

[Raluca Popovici, Desktop QA]

We have also tried to investigate this bug in order to see if it is reproducible on our machine. It seems that we did not encounter the behaviour described in comment 0, on Dell XPS. This was checked with Firefox 91.0b9, 93.0a1 on Win 11 Pro, OS Build 22000.176, version 21H2

Comment 9

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

We are 2 weeks from the 93 release and this bug seems non actionable, so wontfix for 93.

Comment 10

[Gian-Carlo Pascutto [:gcp]]

Changing severity to S2 because of see bug 1722208 about affected machines.

Comment 11

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco/ :calixte]]

Changing the priority to p2 as the bug is tracked by a release manager for the current nightly.

Comment 12

[Gabriele Svelto [:gsvelto]]

I tested on my Windows 11 ARM machine with 93.0 and I can't reproduce. Menus are showing up correctly. To the original reporter, can you still reproduce this bug? If so can you describe the hardware you're experiencing it on? In particular I'm curious if your machine has touchscreen.

Comment 13

[Ryan VanderMeulen [:RyanVM]]

Given the lack of ability to reproduce, downgrading the priority/severity of this. We can revisit if/when we find a way to consistently hit the bug.

Comment 14

[Stephen A Pohl [:spohl]]

No response from reporter. Please reopen and provide the info requested in comment 12 if you can still reproduce.
