when firefox updated recently the fingerprint reader on my hp envy laptop running windows 8, quit working took me awhile and 2 restores to figure it out. plus now i disabled automatic update but when i reboot its back on, updates and crashes my fingerprint reader, been a loyal firefox user for many years, never had a problem before, seems like all the recent updates cause problems
