The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

To test out of process extensions, go to about:config and set extensions.webextensions.remote to true. Note: after flipping this pref it shouldn't require a restart, but it might not run reliably without one, so just restart Firefox ok?

APIs that are particularly affected by out of process:

  • context Menus
  • devtools
  • omnibox
  • tabs
  • permissions
  • webRequest
