Sometimes when I hover over a tab to see what info is on that tab before switching to it, there is a huge box popup with other boxes in it. I don't know why it's there and I don't want it there (it blocks the info I need to see because it's HUGE) and I can't find any setting for it. Please help.

I would add an image showing what I see but of course it's not doing it now.

Possible GPU issue. Can you reproduce it in troubleshoot mode?

You can restart in Firefox Troubleshoot Mode from the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button Fx57Menu, click Help, select Troubleshoot Mode and click Restart in the "Restart Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode?" dialog that opens.
