This is a very recent thing I’ve had happening, presumably since an update. I will often have multiple FF windows open. In one of the windows, I’ll suddenly not be able to place my cursor in the address bar on any tab. But other FF windows function fine. I have to close that window and start a new instance or drag a tab from a working window to another screen, then that will work fine for an unpredictable time.

I have no idea what specific thing I might be doing that touches this off, as far as I can tell I’m just browsing. I thought maybe I had a child dialog opening in a hidden window, but it must be hidden pretty good because I can’t find it if I do.

Fedora Linux 42 KDE

Firefox 139.0

    This one’s super annoying, I’m glad the tab thing actually fixes it for a bit because I was completely killing my browser every time before I learned about that.

    Hope this fix goes live soon
