Firefox won't show any page's content
Hi,
So after this 59.0 and 59.0.1 Update, I'm facing this Issue
Firstly I did a Clean Install of my O.S.
I'm currently having Windows 7 x64 bit ultimate, Updated with all updates available from WIndows Update, with All basic frameworks and visual c++ redistrubable, flash java, literally every important softwares that I used, and are widely requried, downloaded and u[to date from official Website
My Ublock origin is uptodate, and even disabling it and ctrl+f5 won't show any content
The problem I'm facing is,
In some website, or some pages of same website won't show any content, but it is indeed loaded properly, and Hovering Mouse all over the webpage would give me glance of it, and If I type password, I won't see black dots, but pass does gets typed, pressing enter logs me in and pressing CTRL+A shows me Black Colored selection covering texts, but no characters, elements, or content of website visible
The O.S. is Freshly installed, and even the firefox is downloaded 59.0.1 x64 bit from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
I have most recent drivers of Intel and Nvidia aswell
and this problem does not occur on chrome stable version,
attaching screenshots
First image is of the microsoft website, not showing anything after hovering cursor(Second image) and ctrl+a, shows that elements are loaded
and third image is of same webpage in chrome(Wiht Ublock origin ON)

There are several possibilities.
Make sure you are not blocking content.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

in Safe mode I can see everything just fine,
So I disabled all Addons and then restart firefox in normal mode, that still cause same error
What I'm not able to understand is,
I'm not blocking anything
everything loads perfectly,
What I'm not able to see has actually been loaded, just that I have to hover my mouse over there to see it.
and I only have two extensions, ublock and greasemonkey with adsbypasser, other than that, amazon assistant, idm, useragent switcher, and browsec vpn
Disabling all of them won't help, but in safe mode, I can see everything just fine
also
it's quite irregular
On a website I may see one of it's page properly now, and maybe after Firefox restart or next day, I may not be able to see that page's content tomorrow or next time I open it
Hi this is a possibility as it appears to be an issue that only affects users who have turned off cleartype font rendering within their windows settings. So a workaround for the moment would either be to turn cleartype back on or disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/performance-settings
suggest turn on cleartype.
Please let us know if that fixed the issue.

Hi, Yes I always turn on cleartype but this time forgot to configure that, for now, I am able to see contents clearly
H/W accel is on too
