I’m glad you asked this question. I am on version 102. I have updates set to automatic & every once in a while when I open Firefox, it says it is updating, please wait. So I thought I was current. Now – how do I update to 113? There is no update option under the Help or Tools menu.
Thanks,

Sherry,
Have you verified that you’re running Firefox 113 or later?

Subject: [VICUG-L] Firefox Extremely Slow
Hi,
I am using the current version of Firefox, Windows 10, current version of Fusion. Firefox is extremely slow. I open a page & let it load. I use h to jump to headings & have to wait longer than I should for each jump to happen. I use the arrow keys & same thing, an extra long wait until Firefox moves to the next item. I use Chrome & Edge for other things & no problems there. I want to use Firefox for some particular web sites as I like to download articles as text files for later reading. Last time I checked, I could not download to a text file using Chrome or Edge.
Does anyone else have this problem with Firefox? Any ideas on something I can do to speed things up?
Thanks,
Sherry Wells
