With any page open, the screen flickers and the size of the text changes as it flickers. The "View" tab on the menu bar is also flickering when this happens. It appears as if it is zooming in and out on its own.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

It is doing the same thing in safe mode. Also I tried opening Safari and it is doing it there too, so seems like it i not just a program issue. Maybe a faulty keyboard of something. T will try changing keyboards and see what happens
