Hi there, I've noticed some minor but annoying problem with browser vertical maximization.

When I vertically maximize browser by dragging upper form line to the top of the screen, upper and lower side of browser form are snapped to top and bottom of my screen. If I close browser in that (maximized) state, next time when I open it, whole browser form isn't snapped top and bottom anymore. It is slightly moved up. It would be great if this can be fixed soon. Like I said before... it's not big deal but it is little bit annoying and degrading whole user experience with browser.

I am using latest Firefox and Windows 11 Pro. 2K monitor resolution 2560 x 1440px

Thanks in advance

Have you enabled the preference to resist fingerprinting because that can evidently affect window size? It is possible that you have a corrupt xulstore.json file (link below).

@Dropa, this happens to me only with Firefox. With any other browser I didn't have this issue.

@Terry, I've tried with Refresh in Troubleshooting mode and problem still persists. It is very annoying. :/
