White line on the bottom of the screen
When I use firefox on my main display (1920x1080 144h 16:9) in full screen there is a noticeable white line in the bottom, not using full screen fixes it, but a pain in the ass to resize it all the time. I tried using the browser on my secondary smaller display (1920x1080 60h 16:9) and there is no white line. This seems to be a bug, how do i fix it?

Alright, I seem to have fixed it. The problem was in a app called TaskbarX, it created a space between the taskbar and the bottom of the screen. The white line seems to be between that space so it created a weird effect. I have since disabled that app and made a bug report to his GitHub, thank you for all your help!!

You should try uninstalling Firefox, then delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files(x86) and then restart the system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup after that run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Your Firefox Profile is saved, but you should make a back up before you do https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-firefox-bookmarks-to-backup-or-transfer Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 57.0.3 with a Full Version Installer

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Options/Preferences -> General: Performance
remove checkmark: [ ] "Use recommended performance settings"
remove checkmark: [ ] "Use hardware acceleration when available" - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/performance-settings
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.
Tried every step above, didnt work. what i found is that the line goes away when going fully full screen (f11)

I have this problem as well, except I don't have this Taskbar X program, so I have no idea what's the problem is.
