Fix: Enable E10s (multi-process) (disabled: An accessibility tool is active)

If you’ve enabled Electrolysis aka e10s or Mozilla done that for Firefox Nightly on your computer, have you spotted that? If you use Screen Capture software like Snagit, you’ll notice e10s disabled in Firefox browser and browser settings under startup shows this entry grayed out: Enable E10S (multi-process) (disabled: An accessibility tool is active).

You can’t re-enable e10s again in the browser, let us see how to fix this.

UPDATE: Force-enable both E10s and Accessibility Support in Firefox Nightly

Mozilla adds ‘Enable E10s’ Option to Nightly Preferences
