Firefox 86 V 64

Firefox can remember what you've entered in forms on web pages, also known as text fields. After you've entered something into a form on a web page (such as a search box), the next time you visit that page, your previous entry will be available to re-use. This article describes how to use the auto form fill feature and how to clear or prevent it from storing form entries.

Firefox was created by Dave Hyatt and Blake Ross as an experimental branch of the Mozilla browser, first released as Firefox 1.0 on November 9, 2004. Starting with version 5.0, a rapid release cycle was put into effect, resulting in a new major version release every six weeks. From Firefox 86 onward, DTLS 1.0 is no longer supported for establishing WebRTC's PeerConnections. All WebRTC services need to support DTLS 1.2 from now on as the minimum version. Consolidated all video decoding in the new RDD process which results in a more secure Firefox. Firefox makes it to version 54, Mozilla dubs it 'the best Firefox' Mozilla has announced the latest update to its popular web browser. Firefox is now up to version number 54 with changes that, according to the company, make it 'the best Firefox in history' thanks to an important performance tweak in the form of multiprocess support when loading tabs. Firefox's features are robust and generally competitive. The most important feature in the modern Firefox is Sync.Sync now smoothly syncs your bookmarks, passwords, preferences, history, and tabs, not only with other computers, but also with your Android version of Firefox. Firefox allows only those trackers and scripts needed for the site to work and blocks the rest. For more information, visit SmartBlock for Enhanced Tracking Protection. None Detected: Firefox looked for these trackers and scripts, but did not find them on this site.
