Thanks for the details, people - very helpful.

and I just HAD to say something

I just got the dead X at the top instead of the refresh arrow/circle thing.

I got crazy and jumped on the Beta release for FF57. Disabled many addons but the BB does work. Works also on FFbeta on Android.

FF 56.0 (64 bit)
BB had been working for me for a while but just stopped again this am.

win 10 and ff Quantum 64 bit back button not working

 

[Evi|grin]

I killed all flash content on this site because it performs so poorly. Not a single problem on any other forum including phpBB, Vbulletin, IPboard, Proboard and 2 other Xenforo based forums...The problem is THIS forum and the plethora of advertisements.

i changed one setting in
about:config
apz.frame_delay.enabled;true

Double click it to change it back to false which was the setting in Firefox 56. The forum slows down slightly but the back button works on the first try now under Firefox Quantum 57 64bit

Just tried this but it still doesn't work for me under Firefox Quantum 32 bit

I wish i could help with the 32bit but my 32bit box is Win7 Enterprise which i keep locked down more securely. Such as no updates unless i choose to install them. Quantum caught me by surprise on this system somehow. I thought i had it set to NOT auto update Firefox.

According to the reading ive done, the back button issue has been a rather large problem with Firefox 32bit for some time. At this time ive found no solution for 32bit

Chrome appears to not have this problem if you want to try it.

Thanks @Evi|grin - I may decide to go down the Chrome route but since this is the only site where this seems to happen for me, that may be overkill !

Out of interest I just tried the site using Microsoft Edge and the back button worked a treat. When I tried it a couple of weeks ago, the page loading was so slow I kept getting "Not Responding" but that didn't happen today.

Since I just got the FF Quantum update this morning I decided to try the back button and the first couple of clicks it wasn't working and then all of a sudden it works! Talk about a WTH moment?

I hope I'm not tempting fate, but my back button has suddenly started working again (Firefox Quantum 57.02 32 bit)

The red arrow is working for me again in Dark.

If the back button doesn't work a refresh will usually make it work and also try 5-6 clicks because sometimes that works!

It did work with the 5 or 6 clicks but it's back to working with just one

Let's keep the glitches to one thread please - too many are making tracking things down difficult

We have moved!
