Here Is What Is New In Firefox 96.0.2 – Ghacks Technology News

Mozilla released Firefox 96.0.2 to the Stable channel on January 20, 2022. The new version of the browser fixes three issues that affect Facebook, LastPass and audio play on Linux.

firefox 96.0.2

Firefox 96.0.2 is already available. Firefox is configured to download and install updates automatically, but users may speed up the process by selecting Menu > Help > About Firefox. The window that opens displays the current version of the browser. A check is run to find out if an update is available; if that is the case, it is downloaded and installed automatically on the system.

The official release notes list three fixes:

  • Fixed an issue that caused tab height to display inconsistently on Linux when audio was played (bug 1714276)
  • Fixed an issue that caused Lastpass dropdowns to appear blank in Private Browsing mode (bug 1748158)
  • Fixed a crash encountered when resizing a Facebook app (bug 1746084)

The first fix resolves an issue in Firefox for Linux. According to the bug report, Firefox on Linux used to change the height of the tab bar when audio was played in the browser. Firefox displays a sound indicator in tab items when it detects audio playback; this indicator seems to have triggered the resize behavior on Linux. The update to Firefox 96.0.2 resolves the issue.

The second issue is specific to the LastPass extension. It occurred only in private browsing mode and caused the Lastpass dialog window to be displayed without any information (blank in other words). The issue is fixed when users update to the new version of Firefox.

The third and final issue listed in the release notes caused Facebook applications to crash Firefox when the application window is resized. At least some Facebook applications are affected by this, and users who use these applications may want to update to Firefox 96.0.2 to address the issue.

Firefox 96.0.2 is the third Firefox release of 2022. Mozilla released Firefox 96.0 Stable on January 11, 2022, and Firefox 96.0.1 shortly thereafter to fix critical connection issues.

The next stable version of Firefox will be released on February 8, 2022.

Now You: did you run into these issues?
