    ff 67.0

    • Firefox 67 demonstrates improved performance thanks to a number of changes such as:

      • Lowering priority of setTimeout during page load
      • Delayed component initialization until after start up
      • Painting sooner during page load but less often
      • Suspending unused tabs

      Learn more about our approach to performance in 67 in the Mozilla blog.

    • Users can block known cryptominers and fingerprinters in the Custom settings of their Content Blocking preferences.

    • Keyboard accessibility has improved in the latest version of Firefox. Toolbar and toolbar overflow menu are both fully keyboard accessible: keyboard users can now access add-ons, the downloads panel, the overflow, Page actions and Firefox menus, and much more.

    • Private Browsing sees both usability and security improvements:

      • Save passwords in private browsing mode
      • Choose which extensions to exclude from private tabs

    • A myriad of new features help make Firefox easier to use:

      • We’ve added a toolbar menu for your Firefox Account to provide more transparency for when you are synced, sharing data across devices and with Firefox. Personalize the appearance of the menu with your own avatar
      • Tabs can now be pinned from the Page Actions menu in the address bar
      • Firefox will highlight useful features (like Pin Tabs) when users are most likely to benefit from them.
      • Easier access to your list of saved logins from the main menu and login autocomplete. Learn about all the ways you can manage your passwords in Firefox.
      • The Import Data from Another Browser feature is now also available from the File menu
      • Users will be able to run different Firefox installs side by side by default so that you can run the beta and release versions simultaneously

    • Firefox will now protect you against running older versions of the browser which can lead to data corruption and stability issues

    • Firefox is upgrading to the newer, higher performance, AV1 decoder known as ‘dav1d’

    • WebRender is gradually enabled by default on Windows 10 desktops with NVIDIA graphics cards

    • Mozilla’s highest performing JavaScript compiler now supports ARM64 Windows devices.

    • Enable FIDO U2F API, and permit registrations for Google Accounts

    • Some users will see experiments with an improved Pocket experience in Firefox Home with different layouts and more topical content.

    Fixed

    Changed

    • Firefox no longer supports handling webcal: links with 30boxes.com

    • Change to extensions in Private Windows: Any new extensions you add to the browser won’t work in Private Windows unless you allow this in the settings.

    • Users will no longer be able to upload and share screenshots through the Firefox Screenshots server. Users who want to keep existing screenshots need to export them before the server shuts down in the coming months.

    • Included Twemoji Mozilla font updated to support Emoji 11.0 🥳

    • Font and date adjustments to accommodate the new Reiwa era in Japan

    Developer

    • The DevTools Changes panel now supports copying modified CSS. You can either copy the full changes or individual changed rules.

    • CSS Viewport-compat - Firefox for Android's mobile viewport behavior is now aligned with other browsers, resolving known compatibility issues with websites.

    • JavaScript module imports - Firefox now supports dynamic module imports.

    • New streamlined worker debugging in the JavaScript Debugger with the new Threads panel.

    • New inline breakpoints provided by the JavaScript Debugger give a much higher fidelity and reliability for pausing in specific locations within a line of code.

    ublock v1.19.0

     

    gorhill released this

    New

    New cosmetic procedural operator: :nth-ancestor(x), where x is the distance from the currently selected node. It is effectively a low-overhead equivalent to :xpath(..[/..]*). Using an existing filter as an example: 

    fastbay.org##.detLink:has-text(VPN):xpath(../../..)

    Could be rewritten with the new operator: 

    fastbay.org##.detLink:has-text(VPN):nth-ancestor(3)

    The new operator has a lower overhead as it avoids the need to create and execute XPath expressions.

    Closed as fixed

    1. -install menu runs now in english - before it runs in german on my os. (install over the old...)

    2. -tools - software updater on the right side -> "update" among them "refresh" in english

    in german "aktualisieren" among them "aktualisieren" (its 2x thesame)

    -> perhaps better "aktualisieren" among them "wiederholen"

     

     

    Apply CCleaner in an External Disk

    in CCleaner

    in your direction for example:

     

    ccleaner -> cleaner -> under "advanced" -> check "custom files and folders"

     

    next step:

    ccleaner -> options -> include -> click on "add" on the right side of ccleaner-window

    there pop up an window "include"

     

    next step: location

    choose "drive or folder"

    click on "browse" or give it manually into the white field -> in your way for example "f:\backup" -> click "OK"

     

    next step: kind of files to delete

    choose under "file types" what kind of files do you want do delete.... -> for example choose "all files" for all kind of files

    or choose "file types" and explain ccleaner what kind of files do you want to delete - for example: "*.temp" -only for all files with the files-end "TEMP"

     

    next step: -> additional options

    choose what do you want additionally to delete...

    there are 3 things additional to delete

    1.) include files only

    2.) include files and subfolders

    3.) include files, subfolders and the folder itself

     

    and choose if you want the option "only delete files or folders older than ..."

    and give ccleaner the hours how old the files/folder are can be - in the example 24 hours

    click "ok"

    Good to know! I'll still be able to use an old last WinXP version of Firefox ESR on my old XP system with that tweak.

    nice :-) i have on my old xp an ff esr too but longer not online... ;-)

     

    @hazelnut

    i have opera updated and it seems that the autoupdater ... brings the browser opera itself unaccessable and the "service" is not shutdownable with the taskmanager.

    is there a way to deactivating this autoupdater in the options of opera? (i have only found the "rename" thing in the install-folder of opera and the deactivate-option with cceaner)
