If you're using firefox it's worth checking if a restart's required to apply update.

Correct! Just forced a Firefox restart and now resizing AND frame rate issues have been resolved.

Back to normal set-up, thank God! :D

'Restart'? Mine does it from a cold boot. Did you force an update somehow?
So what version are you on now?

I was on v118.0.1 which was an update on 28th Sep (when the RTV first started), and an update to v118.0.2, dated today, was waiting. I restarted Firefox and now everything is hunky dory :D

Thanks PeachFlame. But I've checked. I go to about and see if there is an update but not there yet. Hopefully when I get the update it will sort it out.

Many Thanks 👍

I don't know if it's connected, but I also updated Windows with the usually monthly nonsense just before the new version of Firefox appeared.

My desktop version of Firefox is now 118.0.2 but it didnt update since last week. I will check again today if I'm still having trouble and report back.

Also just to note Firefox on my mobile phone just updated today to "118.2.0" yes 118.2.0 not to confuse it with "118.0.2".

So can everyone check if they have 118.2.0 or 118.0.2 please?

Glad to report all is back to normal now.

Also just as I was about to start trading at 13:30 my pc decided to do a Windows update LOL.

I have settings that stop it from doing this but it still did it.

Windows update is a nightmare. I've learnt thanks to this group that they always appear overnight on the second Tues/Weds of the month. So I always push updates through manually before trading starts on that Weds.
