Since the latest FF update when I open a link in a new tab the tab loads incorrectly and I have to shutdown FF and restore previous session to get said tab to load up properly. Bit frustrating. Is there something wrong with the new update ? I've not changed anything on my computer for a while

hi, what is going wrong exactly - does text and images on pages only load partially?

if so that may be a known regression that affects users who have turned off cleartype font rendering within their windows settings. a workaround for the moment would either be to turn cleartype back on or disabling hardware acceleration in firefox: Firefox's performance settings

we are currently looking into fixing this issue in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1435472
