    As far as flash for Firefox goes, there's a new version 24 available if you haven't gotten it already.

    ~ Link Removed - See Flash Player Policy ~

    I almost forgot to untick the McAfee thing in the second step. :cautious: Almost.

    Thanks, but did you check out the site? The problem with Flash is that you can never be sure if it's a website related or browser/software related problem. I can't wait for Flash to die.

    oo-oo, I just saw that, sorry about that. Lesson learned.

    See, not even their own stuff is acceptable. Yeck.

    I updated Firefox to 50.1.0 early today. I changed Multiprocess Windows to "0/1 (Disabled by accessibility tools)". Thats what it shows in about:support. I think I want to keep it that way for now but I cant figure out how to change it back to how it came when I first upgraded. At that time Multiprocess Windows showed "1/1 (Enabled by default)". Does anyone knows how to do it via about:config.

    Thanks, JR. What I am exactly looking for is an easy way to get Multiprocess to default. Perhaps making a couple of changes in about:config. Default in my W7 is 1/1 (Enabled by default). When I played around with this early today, the one way I found to get Multiprocess back to default was by creating a new profile.

    Bo, I believe that's the only way, because if you had 1/1 (Enabled by default), Mozilla turned on that feature for you. Unless... check Options > General tab, and see if you have the Enable multi-process checkbox (only present in Nightly versions but maybe you have it now). The Mozilla Wiki link I provided shows the different Enabled by User options. My Fx 50.1.0 version still shows 0/1 (Disabled by add-ons).

    Yes, 1/1 (Enabled by default) is default for me. I reckon that's because I use few extensions (four) and they work great with Multiprocess. I turned it off because using an screen keyboard makes Firefox display an annoying pop up telling about a possible conflict. I dont like pop ups of any kind.

    I did try changing accessibility.force_disabled preference value to false but that didnt do nothing for me. I just like to know how to change this back but as I have it now is how I want it. :)

    OK thanks, then there's something wrong on my system, I will reinstall and/or test it on a clean FF version, with the help of Sandboxie.

    Thanks, I haven't tried to solve it yet, but I think NoScript might be causing the problem, it seems to block certain parts of PB's interface.
