Back button on browser doesn't work

Postby *Wiro » Sun Mar 01, 2015 2:54 am

The page will say the session has expired. Is this an intended change? I used this extensively, practically on every single page. It's significantly easier to press backspace than it is to scroll down and click the button.

Already discussed in another thread. Restarting your browser/pc will solve it.

Two weeks later and it seems that this issue occurs every day to me now.

I'm having the same issue since updating to firefox 35.
Browser cache gets overloaded very quickly, so it looks like some bug.

If it's firefox, then it's possible to see contents of cache by entering: about:cache
Cantr related stuff on my PC takes about 1 MB, while most of the space is used by some youtube videos. I've changed the limit to 1024 MB and clear the cache every few days.

That makes sense, I also use Firefox. I'll do that and post here whether it's fixed or not.

Restarting your computer seems excessive. Whatever the restart does (probably clears temporary files and cache files) can almost certainly be done without a restart.

Clearing the cache should have the same effect.

This might help others. Setting cache at max and making firefox automatically clear the cache is a great solution to this problem. Until today I would have to clean the cache every single day.
