Yep, there is no such thing as Kaspersky task manager, I called Application control this way simply because it was the first expression that came to my mind.
Your directions were quite clear to me. I was stumped the other day because I was consistently overlooking the "View" drop-down menu where I needed to uncheck the option to "Hide Kaspersky Internet Security" executables so I wasn't able to see ffcert.exe in the list of programs until I unchecked that option. I'll blame it on low blood sugar and depressed serum caffeine levels. :lol: The fellow that I was trying to assist had KAV and he said that it doesn't have the corresponding Application Control settings as I have in KIS 2018 (I tried KIS 2017 a few days ago as well). Hopefully he'll see your comment about simply deleting ffcert.exe.

Thanks for your explanation about the purpose of ffcert.exe.

If anyone is running the "Replace bookmark" extension, uninstall it before updating to today's nightly or it will completely mess up Firefox .

@Streetwolf, @Omega X, do you suggest turning Webrender on or should I still wait a while?

Look like Flagfox just broken after update to this build, you may not want to update if you are using this add-on frequency.

Two questions about the 'no restart"

Do you still get one?

Did you have Webrender enabled?

I did not have either yesterday. Today I enabled Webrender and later the update did not restart.

I'm not WaltS48, but I'm also having Nightly hang on shutdown (which leads to no restart after an update).

WaltS48 and I are both running Linux, and the specific hang crashes we see have Linux specific forced crashes. There may be a corresponding Windows problem but I haven't tried to find them.

To answer your specific questions: I still had the hang on shutdown problem this morning. I don't have Webrender enabled.

Thanks for the info. I used Linux for a while some time ago. Mandriva then Mangia then Fedora.

What ever the distros did to their releases they always worked. They solved all of the dependencies. But they usually did not work as well. IMHO.

And the Mozilla ones almost always had problems with some mismatched libraries. :-)

Webrender is a little system intense. Lots of resources and some embedded videos don't play. For me.

Yes, with today's update.

No Webrender isn't enabled.

I don't have the problem with Thunderbird Daily 56.0a1.

Well it was a thought. :-)

As for TBird Daily? Today's update broke Enigmail. For me.

So, the last few days Firefox seems to be having some startup issues. It's heavily spiking CPU usage for 30 (clean, temp profile) to 60 (main profile) seconds, where UI is fairly unresponsive during that time.

It might be associated with a recent full reinstall of Firefox. I tried uninstalling everything, then installing the 64-bit version, but had issues, so uninstalled that and went back to the 32-bit version.

Anyone else noticing this problem?

Also, have been having frequent issues of the cursor not changing to the hand icon when over a link. It stays the standard pointer arrow.

Thought it might have been related to an addon, but that addon has been removed, and it's still happening.

Create new profile, click on the arrow down in the url bar - it doesn't work. Set browser.urlbar.maxRichResults to 100, make sure you have more than 100 history entries, click on arrow down in the url bar - dropdown menu is rendered but you can't scroll it.

I guess that's a known bug but I can't find it on bugzilla.
Sorry for my poor English.

The scrollbar from the location bar popup has been removed because it was flickering like crazy, and in general we don't want a scrollbar per design directions. Now the popup sizes accordingly to maxRichResults. The "tens of results" case is now unsupported.
