Firefox 110.0

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/110.0/releasenotes/

Version 110.0, first offered to Release channel users on February 14, 2023: 

New

  • It's now possible to import bookmarks, history and passwords not only from Edge, Chrome or Safari but also from Opera, Opera GX, and Vivaldi for all the folks who want to move over to Firefox instead!

  • GPU sandboxing has been enabled on Windows.

    Note: A bug in the popular X-Mouse Button Control (XMBC) tool may cause mouse wheel scrolling to stop working. The author(s) are working on an update. Meanwhile, scrolling can be restored by reconfiguring XMBC: either disable the Make scroll wheel scroll window under cursor option in the global settings, or enable the Disable scroll window under cursor option if using a custom profile for Firefox.

  • On Windows, third-party modules can now be blocked from injecting themselves into Firefox, which can be helpful if they are causing crashes or other undesirable behavior.

  • Date, time, and datetime-local input fields can now be cleared with Cmd+Backspace and Cmd+Delete shortcut on macOS and Ctrl+Backspace and Ctrl+Delete on Windows and Linux.

  • GPU-accelerated Canvas2D is enabled by default on macOS and Linux.

  • WebGL performance improvement on Windows, MacOS and Linux.

  • Enables overlay of hardware-decoded video with non-Intel GPUs on Windows 10/11, improving video playback performance and video scaling quality.

 

 

Changed

  • Colorways are no longer available in Firefox, at least not in the same way. You can still access your saved and active Colorways by selecting Add-ons and themes from the Firefox menu. Additionally, you can now install Colorways from all of the previous collections by visiting Colorways by Firefox on the Mozilla Add-ons website

Microsoft issued an update to disable Internet Explorer on Windows 10 forever --- it was replaced by EDGE.

Visual references (i.e., lingering ICONS) to IE will be removed via Windows Update in June.
