slow firefox
Hello My firefox is slow. Moziila.org page loads about 10s, while other webbrowsers on the same windows account load Mozilla.org in less than 200 ms (50x faster). Other websites also works very slow. Of course I have tried: - Safe mode, - Restart Firefox, - Reinstall Firefox, - Use portable version of firefox which has separate profile to installed version of firefox. All above didn't speed up my firefox. On the same computer, logged to another account I have normal, fast working firefox. I don't want to change account or reinstall windows. What else can I do to find what is slowing my firefox
My computer has Ryzen 5600x processor and 8GB 3200 MHz Ram

I think the problem was in proxy settings. My configuration was set to "Auto-detect proxy settings...." (12.7 s mozilla.org) I have changed it to "no proxy" and now firefox is much faster (0.322 ms for mozilla.org)

Is there any keyboard combination for proxy setting? I don't remember if I had to change it.

Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?

In Windows Safe mode with network support mozilla.org loads in 1 s - 10 x faster than in normal mode.
I don't use antivirus software except that built-in windows.
In my windows startup there are two active positions: - Realtek HD universal Service, - Windows Security notifiaction icon.

That was very good work. Well Done. Please flag your last post as Solved Problem as this can help others with similar problems.
Type about:preferences#advanced<Enter> in the address bar. Under Advanced, Select Network.
[v56+] Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address bar. Look for Network. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Look for Configure How Firefox Connects and press the Settings button. If you are using a proxy, make sure those settings are correct. If there is no proxy, first try No Proxy. If there is a problem, then try System Proxy.
