Periodically the title bar becomes transparent and the tabs are not responsive. I am on FireFox 71.0 64 bit. Only restarting the browser fixes the issue for a while - interestingly, Thunderbird also shows this odd behavior. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hello Macgyver16502,

Could you please also mention about your computer's specs? Also provide details about your installed extensions.

Thanks!

However none of these are installed in Thunderbird - which shows the same behavior.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support to see if that has effect in case security software is causing problems.
