Hello,

I've updated my Firefox to latest version (89.0) on my Windows machine, and from yesterday I'm keep having occasional freezes and artifacts. It happens when opening a tab or loading a page while also opening a Windows app. Freeze lasts for 5-10 seconds, followed with black screen and sometimes artifacts (today).

I've attached a picture along with data if you might find something useful. I disabled hardware accelaration from this point forward.

Hey cor-el,

I temporary resolved the issue. To give you headsup and people who have this, it is related to NVIDIA driver 466.63, roll back to 466.47 until newest is fixed.

Firefox update came at the same time as NVIDIA so everything started at that time. People with GTX serier GPU's will experience this issues along with BSoD's on Windows 10. Try also skipping May update for Windows 10.

Thanks!

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Close and restart Firefox after modifying the setting to make changes effective.

You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.
