Hi, I've refreshed and tried to create a new profile. At first, it works but how I know that the new profile will not broken again like this one. I do not know why it starts to work but then stops working and I've to either refresh or create a new one :(

I have the same problem, Firefox 56.0 is a joke.

Wondering why I had so many problems since upgrading.

My guess is maybe some of the add-ons are causing this fault, since they all now say incompatible.

I tried deleting all my cache and it did not help, disabling all the add-ons did not help either. I am downgrading to 55.03.

Please fix this garbage.

Hi! I think that maybe the problem could be this: https://support.mozilla.org/es/questions/1177625

If you have the MEGA extension, you should try to disable it by the moment. I've updated Firefox on my work to version 56 and works fine. At home, I had the Mega extension on 55.0.3 so when I updated to version 56 that's the reason of the failure. Then, when I refresh or create my profile again all addons were deleted so Firefox 56 worked well. I installed later the MEGA extension but since it does not require restart Firefox worked well, until I restarted the PC and needed to open again Firefox and on that moment, it stopped work as usual.

I will try to update Firefox and disable MEGA extension when I arrive at home, if it works for me I will post it here.

Regards!

I can confirm it. Disable Mega extension until it's updated. Now Firefox 56 works as expected and if I reactivate again Mega extension the issue appears again.

I'm posting here because mozilla disabled my mega addon and I've been using FF56 on 7 10 and Linux with the MEGA addon (I have them synced) since 56 came out without an issue, do you guys maybe use an user script addon like greasemonkey cos I have a lot of legacy addons and as I said no issues with mega I re-enabled it still having no issues?

Not seeing that issue here in 56. Have you tried starting Firefox in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
If no improvement using Safe Mode, do you have the same problem if you create a new profile and test it with no extensions or non-default themes installed?

Stupid me, I tried opening Firefox in Safe Mode and everything works. Then I went plugin hunting and found the mega nz plugin was causing the issue. Removed the plugin and everything works again.

Yesterday Mega.nz plugin got upgraded and the issue is gone. BTW, it is now a webextension, so no more "Obsolete" next to it ;-)
