Details

(Whiteboard: [win:sizing])

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0

Steps to reproduce:

Running Firefox on Windows10 in a Remote Desktop Session with a higher resolution then the actual machine display has.

Actual results:

If I run Firefox later on that machine directly, the FF-Window is to big and there is no menus. You have to grab the side of the window and manually shrink it to use Firefox again.

Expected results:

Firefox should check at startup the actual monitor resolution and reduce its windows size accordingly like all other tested browsers do.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Win32' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

I got reports about a similar variant if high res monitors are disconnected. Together with the dupes, I'm increasing the severity.

Severity: S4 → S3
