We sometimes find that browsers are slow to use, or other unknown problems. At this point many users will use the reinstall browser to solve the problem, but the user's data will also have the risk of loss. At this point, we first need to find the cause of the problem, such as browser version and Plug-ins, extensions, such as compatibility, browser settings and so on, and then to the right remedy.

Here, take Firefox as an example, to show you how to optimize the browser settings and upgrade the corresponding additional components to improve the speed and use of the browser experience, and introduce some common problem diagnosis methods, to get a better experience of the Internet.

1. Turn on automatic upgrades to keep your Firefox updated in time

In the Firefox tool-> option-> advanced, to provide users with the Firefox browser update service settings, here is recommended to use automatic installation updates, the first time with the latest version of Firefox, experience the latest performance optimization and better speed. Each new version of the browser contains a boost to browser performance and fixes to previous issues, so the new version generally has more security and better performance than older versions.

Users who want to get update notifications can also choose to check for updates and install them according to their needs at the appropriate time.

2. Turn on the Automatic Update add-on component and install it automatically the next time you open Firefox

Firefox's add-on provides an automatic update, and as the browser is updated, add-ons can be automatically updated without user manual action. Here we recommend that you use Automatic Updates, the updated extension will be the next time the user opens the Firefox browser automatically installed, will be the user's interruption to the minimum, but also allows users to remove the compatibility after version upgrade. Click on the Gear button on the right side of the add-on to check the "Auto update add-on" option.

In addition, here also prompts the "extended control" users, install too much of the expansion will have a certain impact on the use of Firefox, some are not required to use every day of expansion, we recommend that you disable it, you need to use it again, do not need to download and install.

3. Regularly check and update plug-ins to enhance the stability of the browser

Unlike extensions, Plug-ins are provided and maintained by third-party companies (such as Adobe Flash Plug-ins) and are registered in the system, and Firefox is only invoked from the system, so it cannot be automatically updated in Firefox. However, Firefox provides a portal for users to check whether the currently installed version of the plug-in needs to be updated: Open the Plugin tab in the add-on, and see at the top: "Check to see if your plugin is up to date."
