<p>Hi, </p><p>Somehow while searching for this solution on the web. I got my answer in a foreign Firefox. The answers posted to this solution are in English but all the other buttons are according to Goggle translate are in Lithuanian. How can I see this whole page in English? </p><pre>I was able to answer a couple of people but if I search in my USA profile, none my posted questions or answers include the ones from the Lithuanian Firefox.  Just curious if I could see them here somehow.  </pre> <p>Amylogamy </p>

<p>I was away from my Windows 10 computer and when I came back Firefox was gone and replaced by a notice that it had crashed and would need to restart. Restart could not proceed because Firefox was still running. I went to the Task Manager to end the Firefox process but the Task Manager was not able to stop it. I had to reboot the computer to end Firefox. You know a crash is real bad when the OS can't even terminate it. Just wanted to see if someone could pass this along to the developers as the feedback page does not appear to be working. Thanks </p>

I have no problem signing in on Edge, but I really don't want to go there.  Ran CCleaner, made sure to clear all sling cookies, whitelisted sling for uBlock origin.  (Running FB Container - does that have any effect?)  Help? </p><p>Win10 Pro 20H2, FF 84.0.2 </p>

<p>Olá! Meu Firefox no Windows 10 Pro, versão mais recente do windows e firefox não reproduz vídeos da Netflix. Sempre aparece a mensagem "Firefox está instalando componentes necessários para reprodução do áudio ou do vídeo nesta página". Demora cerca de 24 horas para parar de aparecer essa mensagem e os vídeos poderem rodar, mas acontece que reproduz tudo lentamente, sempre travando. Ao contrário de que acontecia quando estava com Windows 8.1 que rodava todas os vídeos na melhor definição. </p>

<p>Desktop FireFox browser v. 84.0.2 (64-bit) </p><p>I made the mistake of asking to always open a site in a container and for it to remember my choice. Now I can't get it to open in no container.

I open one in the work container and the other in no container. I didn't realize the open in container would operate only on the domain, which makes sense in hindsight. However, now the site is broken for one of the sites, and I can't find where to reset this choice. How do I do that? </p>

<p>Hi, </p><p>Ever since a while ago, some images are not showing correctly in Firefox. I must have gotten this issue in the last update(84.0.2) or slightly earlier. I tried resetting it, and used safe mode, but I still get the same issue. I don't know how to fix it at this point, and the only solution I have at the moment is to switch over to Chrome for important times, such as for online exams, but this is not ideal. Does anyone have a clue about what could be wrong, or am I doomed to use alternatives to Firefox during important times/just for viewing certain pictures? </p><p>Current Version: 84.0.2 (Auto-Update/Help -&gt; About Firefox) OS: Windows 10 </p><p>Thank you. </p>

<p>FYI, running Windows 7 and Microsoft Office (including Outlook) 2007. (Yes, I know I should upgrade, but some of the other programs I use will not work on Windows 8 or 10, and I don't want to spend a couple thousand dollars to get newer versions.) With that in mind, every now and then I get an email message in Outlook with a hyperlink that I cannot open. This does not happen on all messages, just some of them. I can put the cursor over the item, and the hyperlink address shows up, but I cannot open it, select it, copy it, or anything else. Sometimes I can tell the message to "open in browser" (which unfortunately opens it in IE), but then I can click on the item, and either (1) tell it to open in a new tab in IE, or (2) select "Properties", copy the address in the Properties window, and then paste the address into Firefox. (A lot of effort just to open a hyperlink, yes?)  Any suggestions? Thanks. </p>

Two win 7 hard drives on my computer,. can I move my 64 bit firefox Mozilla folder to my 32 bit hard drive firefox so I have all my passwords and bookmarks and other important things

content:
<p>I have no trouble switching the Mozilla folder to make things simple for my 64 bit win  7 install works like a charm.  I also have a 32 bit win 7 on another drive that I would like to update with all my latest bookmarks and passwords.  I would just save the Mozilla folder of that 32 bit drive and slide my 64 bit made Mozilla folder over to it.  Would this work, I don't believe it could cause any harm if it don't work I can always just slide my 32 bit folder back in, I will have it saved of course just in case.  I have in the past moved those other folders but this is different in that I cannot run both drives and systems at the same time,. I have them so I can chose my boot choice either in bios or using the F11 key to chose which would boot first.  I haven't used the 32 bit for two years but I have a lot of tools I need to go back to and use for image work.  I can select the Mozilla folders easily from either system and do the replacement so it isn't hard.  I would rather like some input before I do this. Of course I am talking about my profile information but moving the entire Mozilla folder from one to the other, that is a working fix for making it easy on a new firefox install without any bookmarks or other information. Thanks </p>

<p>Hi all, I'd be grateful for some help with themes. I've been using Firefox and this specific feature for years and never had any issues with it. On my new PC, themes are suddenly looking like they have only been partially applied. Every theme so far has done this, I've checked all the regular customization settings and I'm stumped. As you can see in the screenshot, the theme applies to the tab and search bar levels, but not to the top level that shows the page title and system buttons. I know it's a cosmetic issue but it is driving me mad. Is this a "feature" in a new version of Firefox to make themes look like this? It looks more like a bug to me :( </p><p>I'm on Windows 10, brand new install on a new machine, I've only synced my Firefox tabs/bookmarks etc but it already looked like this before I did that or added my usual extensions. Any help or explanation why it's like this now would be appreciated! </p>

<p>Hi there! I started using firefox today and I've run into some issues, so I think I'll hopefully get my answers over here. My first issue was that firefox can't save my info for sites like youtube. What do I mean by this? Well I live in country [x] and I wanted to change my location on youtube from country [x] to united states (in order to get better recommendations), however, everytime I quit the youtube tab and opened a new one, my location would be set to my original location (meaning that the location change would last only when I change it and stay on the tab, not when I open a new one). My 'delete cookies' option is also disabled from settings and firefox shield is disabled for youtube. Also firefox keeps on messing and breaking up sites, and the weird thing is that shield isn't even enabled for those sites. By breaking I mean that the site doesn't fully function, and fonts and other things are also broken, and all of this is happening without the work of firefox shield, OR any other extensions I have. I'm on desktop with the latest version of firefox. </p>

<p>I was led to believe that I had to update my Windows program several days ago.  After multiple messages that an update needed installed and I needed to restart my computer, I finally did that and haven't been able to click on the icon for Firefox, or any other browser for that matter, ever since.  I get the same error message if I try to use Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome.  I already followed your steps to make Firefox my default browser.  Comcast technical support was of no help at all.  I also uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and that didn't help either.   Also, once I click on the "home" icon on my toolbar my homepage eventually comes up. I have also found that when I am trying to print from "File" on the toolbar there is no longer a Print Preview which I used all the time and that area gave me the option to change the % so that I wasn't wasting as much paper.  What happened to that option? </p>

<p>Servus mitanand, am Freitag hat die IT-Abteilung in unserem Unternehmen das letzte Update von Windoof ausgeroll, seither erhalte ich weder einen Ton, wenn ich in FF UTube-Inhalte abspiele, noch spielt FF Dateien ab, die auf einer Webseite in einem Player eingebettet sind (Fehelermeldung, dass der Inhalt nicht abgespielt werden kann). Ich würde diesen Affen von MaxiSchrott gern endlich einmal mit dem Rohrstock eins auf die Finger geben, denn bei jedem Update darf ich meine wertvolle Lebenszeit auf irgendeinen Bugfix verschwenden, der mich nicht die Bohne interessiert. Ich komme aus einer Zeit, da galt der Spruch "Never change a runnig system" und so halte ich das auch heute noch, es sei denn, ich werde von höheren Instanzen dazu gezwungen. Ich will, dass diese Scheißkisten laufen, ohne dass ich ständig was dran schrauben muss. Da waren die Autos mit den alten Vergasern noch weniger anfällig. Hat jemand eine Idee, wie ich dieses Problem (kein Ton, kein Abspielen von Player-Inhalten) beheben kann? Neuester FF ist schon installiert, Rechner auch schon xmal neu gestartet, alle möglichen Audio-Einstellungen schon übverprüft - daran liegt es also nicht. Das ist der Grund, weshalb ich mich dagegen wehre, immer mehr meiner Intelligent und Verantwort an diese Scheißkisten abzugeben. Sie machen dumm, verantwortungs- und hilflos.  </p><p>Hi all, on Friday the IT department in our company rolled out the latest update of Windoof, since then I get neither a sound when I play UTube content in FF, nor does FF play files that are embedded in a player on a website (Fehelermeldung that the content can not be played). I would love to finally give these monkeys from MaxiSchrott one on the fingers with the cane, because with every update I get to waste my precious lifetime on some bug fix that I don't give a damn about. I come from a time when the saying "Never change a runnig system" was true and that's how I still hold it today, unless I'm forced to by higher authorities. I want these crap boxes to run without me having to constantly screw something to them. That's when the cars with the old carburetors were even less prone to failure. Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this problem (no sound, no player content playing)? I already installed the newest FF, restarted the computer several times, checked all possible audio settings - so that's not the problem. That's the reason why I'm resisting to give more and more of my intelligence and responsibility to these crap boxes. They make you stupid, irresponsible and helpless.  This is a automated translation because I have not enough time to write it twice and, of course, all English speaking providers meanmwhile use machine translated text to "support" us, which is horroble to understand. </p>

<p>I am lost so request some expert help!! </p><p>I have had a few problems on my win 10 pro 64bit pc where my better half had hsd quite a few win profile logon errors. These hsve bern fixed via regedit until recently where nothing in the hive profile fixes it. (Hardware is fine and no malware just in case you wonder!) As a shortcut I have created a new logon to get the user up and running. Of course Firefox now does not have the old logon's profile available to the 'new' Windows user account. </p><p>So I have followed the instructions at <a href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1065938" rel="nofollow">https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1065938</a> to copy over the firefox profile files to the created user's profile folder. </p><p>But this has not worked. No history, passwords, settings etc available to the new windows account, though it looks like the files have been copied however confusingly repeating exercise does not warn about file overwriting! </p><p>How can the profile be updated to get all the passwords and settings into the new account?  </p><p>Notes: Windows and FF up to date. My personal account is still fine it's just the other user account that is the problem. Cannot logon to the other 'old' account to use FF built in profile management  but it should be ok in the newly created acount. </p>

<p>Hi, I am currently having to teach lessons remotely, I am using firebox browser 84.0 on a windows 10 machine.  So far it has been working well but today when I went to play a youtube video from a google slide whilst in a google meet delivering a lesson the audio from the video would not play.  I have been told this can be fixed by using google chrome, however, this is not an agreeable solution as I'm sure you can understand.  I am wondering what the fix could be in order to allow people viewing my presentation in google meets to hear the audio of the video inserted into the presentation. Thanks </p>

When I try to enter my account PNC tells me that it cannot find the code and tells me to use another browser like Chrome or Internet Explorer which I don't want to do.  PNC tell me to contact Firefox as, "It is not their problem."  But so far I have found nothing in Firefox to solve the issue whatever is causing it. I need help as I would rather not change browsers. </p><p>I have restarted my PC, checked and restarted AVG, checked the troubleshooting program, and reinstalled Firefox, but nothing seems to correct the problem.

<p>Been using Firefox for years, all of a sudden 2 sites no longer works, everyone says it is Firefox fault, and all say to switch browsers. The sites do work on Chrome, but i do not want to switch. PLEASE HELP, I am by no means a computer person, but do need. Nothing new has been installed, and to my knowledge nothing has been changed, other than probable updated. The sites worked fine, then they did not work at all. This all started about 30 days ago, maybe 45 </p>

<p>I've been using new fonts to customize my firefox, but I found that the fonts I installed won't show up in the dropdown menu in preferences, I have to create a new profile to let the new ones do. </p><p>I don't want to change my profiles from time to time, so I turned to userContent.css, but I found it either cannot cover enough contents, or cover too much, causing some icons to break. </p><p>So the only way to change font for me is to find a way to let the newly installed fonts to show up properly in my current profile, but no matter I restart my browser or my computer they don't. The fonts I have must be read at the time I create a profile, and I guess the list is stored in either somewhere in my profile or under the firefox program folder. </p><p>I made every effort to search for it but failed, all I know now is it's not in any text file under profile folder, I wonder if anyone can help me with locating the list of fonts. My firefox version is 84.0.2 on MacOS Catalina 10.15.7. </p>

<p>Hi, I would like to know how I can change the screen from portrait mode to landscape mode on a laptop. I assume this is done in the browser?  There is an answer to this question from 2014, but that answer does not work anymore (I tried it). All the other answers seem to be for mobile devices.  I would like to fit a certain amount of text from a website on one page. This is difficult in portrait mode. I am forced to zoom out to 50%, and it is then difficult to read the text. This is because I need to fit all the text on one page, for a screenshot.  Please note that I don't want to switch permanently to landscape. I just want landscape for one website. So it should preferably be easy to switch back and forth between portrait and landscape.  I have looked for this setting in my computer, and I can't find it.  Sorry if this is a dumb question. But I have been unable to find the answer myself. </p>

Been crashing ever since. </p><p>Running the same Extensions, same profile, same computer, etc.  Same thing happens in Safe Mode. </p><p>Sometimes I get the ugly tab closed --- send report and "Restore Previous Tab"  But it does not restore the previous tab. </p><p>Oh, and I do not have a Chrome folder, etc.; no special changes from the stock Firefox. </p><p>Could this be a bug in the new release, version 85?? </p><p>Thanks </p>

<p>hey i have firefox 8.5 - and a problem since v8.4 and present. Web pages load very slowly - the whole browser is very slow, the load on the frame RAM and CPU is reaching its zenith with the windows open. In one word the browser has become useless. Anticipating responses - 1. In safe mode -  browser speeds up slightly, but websites still have lags and take a long time to load. 2. I reinstalled firefox - the errors continued. 3. I turned on firefox without logging in and with add-ons disabled - the browser worked with the errors described above. 4. I turned on firefox and logged into the profile, but turned off the add-ons - firefox - still has errors; I turned on a generation of additions (recommended) - firefox still has bugs. 5. My antivirus is not blacklisted by firefox - and I have no worms etc. 6. Standard or changed settings - firefox doesn't work well.  Any suggestions or advice? Websites like FB, YT and others are simply unloadable with such lags. thanks. </p>

<p>I've been trying to access some resources hosted locally with a web extension for testing, but I've been encountering CORS errors. I've added localhost to the permissions field of the extension's manifest.json, but I still encounter the CORS errors. I saw that bugs <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1220810" rel="nofollow">1220810</a> and <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1488740" rel="nofollow">1488740</a> addressed similar bugs in FF84, but Firefox still won't let me send the requests. If it helps at all, I've been trying to access the resources hosted on localhost from an https context, but I was under the impression that those bugs should have fixed that issue? </p><p>Ideally I wouldn't need to implement having the server respond with the CORS headers since it only seems to be a problem with Firefox in a local context. Accessing the local resources through Chrome works, and accessing the resources through the internet with the domain name in the permissions field of a production build of the extension's manifest.json works in Firefox. Is there a way to make Firefox disregard CORS enforcement for localhost for temporary extensions? </p>

My question is; How can I get a longer list of pages when I right click the back button, may be list of 30 pages, so when I click the bottom page this would take me back 30 pages? (see pic, I edited the pic to show you what I want to see, the long list) Many Thanks </p><p>Tony. </p>

<p>Up until recently if you had the discrete Search Bar turned on and used it to do a search, the results were displayed in the currently open tab, overwriting the previous contents of it. </p><p>At least since v78 (but maybe even since earlier) this changed.

<p>Firefox prompted me to update.  I did.  Then I only had two choices: exit or create a new profile, and since exit did nothing but close the program, I did the second thing.  Now all of my bookmarks are gone - that I rely on for work.  I need specific step-by-step instructions on how to get those back.  I looked through several of the FAQs on this and none where helpful.  I did not have a Firefox folder put on my desktop. Losing these bookmarks will be a major issue.  Please help! </p>

<p>Hi, we have encountered with the CSP issue in Firefox:  </p><p>We have the following CSP &lt;meta&gt; tag in our application: </p><p>&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="default-src 'self'; </p><pre>                  script-src  'self' 'unsafe-eval';                   style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';                   base-uri 'self';                   frame-src 'self';                   media-src 'self';                   navigate-to 'self';                   form-action 'self';                   object-src 'none';                   connect-src 'self'"&gt; </pre> <p>As you see, we did not specified 'unsafe-inline' nor in script-src, nor in default-src. Which means that inline scripts like &lt;script&gt;alert(1)&lt;/script&gt; should not be allowed to execute. But it still works in Firefox and we get an alert popup. </p><p>In Chrome and Edge the policy works fine, and blocks the script execution. </p><p>Please assist on the issue. </p><p>With respect, Victorz </p>

<p>Hi, </p><p>This is my first post here so let me know if I did anything wrong. </p><p>So my problem is: my camera has been undetected by Firefox for a while now, without any change in the use of my browser. I've wanted to use it on Google Duo, on an online classes website, on a website where you can use your camera to try on glasses before ordering, and nothing... The latter was my last attempt and the only message I got from the website was "your camera is not detected". I really have no idea where to check for anything wrong on this topic, it works perfectly on other software (like Discord), so I guess it does not come from the camera itself. I checked the authorizations in Firefox, nothing special there either. </p><p>Any idea and/or tips for this kind of troubleshooting? </p><p>Thanks a lot in advance! </p>

I believe my Firefox browser is automatically updated, but would want to confirm this.  How do I confirm Firefox is up to date and automatically updates?

<p>Hi Is there any possibility for a new feature for a full web page translation to chosen language by simply right click mouse button without jumping to the next tab like this extension (<a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-translator-for-firefox/" rel="nofollow">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-translator-for-firefox/</a>) and (<a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-translate/)?" rel="nofollow">https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-translate/)?</a> i.e: translate to English. Because this feature is available in Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge and also I think it is beneficial for multilingual users </p>

<p>Hi guys, </p><p>I am experiencing this issue for quite a long time, after certain Windows 10 update Facebook on Firefox becomes really unusable, it is really slow, specially on features when there is typing involved. That means Messenger, commenting posts on Facebook, creating new posts etc. But even other stuff is slow as it is scrolling down, going through photos etc. </p><p>This is happening on my both PCs, my CPUs are Ryzen 5 3600, and Intel I7-4770, and GPU GTX 1660S, GTX 1050Ti, so I don`t see that hardware should bottleneck this in any case. In the meantime, I did restart with Safe mode, refreshed Firefox, even reinstalled which does not help. I have tried with other browsers, Facebook works fine there. Currently I am using latest Firefox 84.0.2 64bit on both PCs, and Windows 10 is 20H2 version. </p>

<p>I can do this with the mouse, but I would like to use the keyboard to move the current tab to the end.   The manual says : Ctrl + Shift + End - requires the currently selected tab to be "in focus" for instance, by hitting Alt + D to focus the address bar, and then Shift + Tab until you reach the browser tab bar ... This doesn't seem to work, or it doesn't work when you have 1.000 tabs open ... Trying to open the right-click menu using the keyboard doesn't work either (or cannot be done ?).  If I could open the right-click menu of the tab, then I would be able to navigate to Move Tab -&gt; Move to End, but that can't be done either ...  :-(  Any help ?  Would this be inspiration for a feature request ?  Or defect fix ?  (short-cut key doesn't work) </p>

I know it's specs are very basic compared to phones today but I don't mind. It only supports 3G but I am on Vodafone Australia and as far as I'm aware they still support 3G even if it might be slow. </p><p>Appreciate any thoughts on if I can still use the phone and if Firefox OS if still going and has a recent version that might be able to install on my phone. </p><p>Here are the specs from the back of the box it came in plus a few other photos. </p><p>Cheers Cel </p>

Irrespective of whether firefox closed, or I shut down my computer while it was still open. Is there a way to do this? General &gt; Start-up &gt; Restore previous session, is already unchecked.

<p>Currently on Firefox Version 85.0 (64-bit) using with Windows 10 Pro </p><p>Until recently (before Firefox updated versions) my cookies, cache and history, were automatically deleted on exit from Firefox with no problem. Now I can not delete them for some reason. Even when I try manually to "Clear Data" and also manually clear all History (all sub-menus checked to be cleared). When I restart and open an online newsletter, normally I have to sign in. I don NOT have passwords checked to be saved in FF options and never did.  But now with the new version it just auto signs me into that website. I do NOT want my passwords saved/remembered, nor any of my other info, etc! It is really annoying and not secure if FF is now saving information we don't want it to! What is going on here? How do I resolve and get back the way I had it before the update? Please advise. Thanks in advance! </p><p>NOTE: I don't want to start from scratch by clearing out Firefox totally or messing with my profile. I have too much customization to start over from scratch. (That would be like asking somebody to reinstall Windows entirely when something minor goes haywire!) </p>

answers: 1387503;
creator: kevin_kruger
content:
<p>Firefox was auto-updated to 85 yesterday on a Windows 7 computer I use regularly. After the update it will no longer print when I use the print icon. I have to use Ctrl-P. When I click the print icon in the toolbar (or select it from the drop-down in the menu), the preview window comes up, at which point I hit the Print button. Then the print dialog box (where I choose the printer, page count, etc) appears next to the preview, as it always did. I set the print options as I always do, hit the Print button in the dialog box and it flashes but does not print. The preview does not go away and the print dialog box does not go away. As if that's not enough, it locks Firefox up. I can still make selections in the dialog box but I cannot close it and clicking buttons on it or on the Firefox window in the background does nothing. I have to Ctrl-Alt-Del and end the Firefox process. If I use Ctrl-P the preview does not come up (which appears to be the only difference between the two printing methods), I make the same selections in the dialog box, hit the Print button, and it works... FYI - This same computer was used daily for printing from Firefox before the 85 update with NO problems. The Firefox update is the only thing that has changed and this problem is unique to Firefox. (I switched to Chrome to confirm.) I have tried restarting the machine and starting Firefox in safe mode (and clearing cache, although I doubt that would do anything) and the problem persists. </p>

<p><strong>Background</strong> </p><p>I have recently made a <a href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1271362" rel="nofollow">modification</a> to my Firefox profile folder to allow the New Tab page to have a background image, but now I am noticing some strange behavior. </p><p>When first running Firefox it looks like <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/8L5DB.png" rel="nofollow">this</a>. </p><p>As you can see, for the sites that don't have a high-quality favicon available, Firefox uses a letter and the low-quality favicon. What I'm pointing out here is that the background for these is transparent. </p><p>However, when I open some sites and navigate around, I come back to see <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/MhSdm.png" rel="nofollow">this</a>. </p><p>There is now no visible letter and the background color for these icons have changed to white. I cannot seem to reproduce this, it just eventually happens after regular use. </p><p>This can be fixed by closing the browser and reopening it, but obviously, that's an inconvenience. </p><p><strong>Question</strong> </p><p>Is there a way I can force the icon backgrounds to be transparent, or at least change the solid color to something more fitting to the theme? If possible, please let me know if there is a reason this is happening. </p><p><em>Note: </em> I would rather not resort to setting a custom thumbnail for each of these because I like the way Firefox handles it by default.

When I click on the switch that does so, it refuses to toggle off. I've Googled and browsed the forums here, but can't find anybody that's experiencing the same issue. I thought that maybe an extension that I have is preventing me from toggling off, but disabling every other extension changed nothing. </p>

I've always watched the ads before, never a problem until now.  I checked the icon for Adblock Plus, and it said that something had caused it to reset to default; it said I could fix this by removing and reinstalling Adblock Plus, which I did, but that made no difference.  I don't know what default is, or what I had before (a friend set up my computer for me, so I don't know details), but I just want the CBS site to be able to load its ads so I can watch the program.

However, when I view the .md files the margins seem very small to me. </p><p>Cheers, </p>

<p>At the top of the Firefox Internet browser are the 2 bars for the function keys and the bookmarks or folders. The background color is light gray as standard and often differs little from the background colors of the Internet pages called up. From my point of view, it would be good if you could choose the background color of these Firefox bars yourself. </p>

Please see attached image which shows the menu bar colour. </p><p>Is there any way I can change this to match the dark theme of my system? </p><p>This may seem petty, but I use the pop-out console a lot in my workflow and the bright coloured bar is bothering me! I have just switched over from Chrome which correctly matches the menubar to the system theme. </p><p>Thanks for your help. </p>

For some reason Firefox windows don't have this menu entry and therefore my shortcuts don't move Firefox windows between my screens. </p><p>I've included a couple screenshots to demonstrate. It's not a huge deal but I wonder if it's an issue with my machine or just a quirk of Firefox? </p>

<p>Hi ! </p><p>I apologize if this is a repeat, I looked for this specific question and found things similar but nothing that exactly answers it.  </p><p>Summary / TL;DR - I have 2 mozilla accounts, each with different email (home and work). I want to associate each account with a different firefox profile, and I am having trouble.  </p><p>More Detailed Description -  </p><p>I have 2 mozilla/firefox accounts, 1 for home, 1 for work.  </p><p>What I want -  </p><p>When I login to my home account on computer 1, it will load all my home profile details - bookmarks, history, passwords, etc. </p><p>When I login to my work account on computer 1, it will load all my work profile details - bookmarks, history, passwords, etc.  </p><p>I want to sync my home account with my mobile device. I do not want this sync to transfer ANYTHING to my work account.  </p><p>I am running windows 10, there is 1 user on the computer (me), I do not want to add a second user account.  </p><p>I tried creating different profiles in Firefox, but they are not associated with a Mozilla account. The default profile is my home profile, so if I log into my work account, the profile does not change, and load different bookmarks, history, passwords, etc.  </p><p>Also I find that when I am using my work profile, if I click on a URL, it will open the link in the home profile.  </p><p>This is a problem b/c I have history and passwords in work profile I don't want in home and vice versa. Also I sync home profile on desktop to mobile device, and when I log into different accounts I get that message "another user was sync'd to this computer so if you log in it will bring in all their bookmarks, is that OK?"  </p><p>I want a Mozilla account with 1 email address associated to a specific profile, so when I change Mozilla accounts it changes the profile automatically.  </p><p>I do not find anything online that talks about how to do this so it seems like it is impossible but this makes no sense to me.  </p><p>Any help is appreciated, thank you! </p>

tags: windows-7;desktop;other;firefox-850;

topic: other
locale: en-US
creator: Chris_Hagood
content:
<p>Hello All, </p><p>I have been using Firefox on my Windows 7 PC (64 bit) as the default browser instead of IE for several years.  It has worked very well. </p><p>I have many utilities I have written using Microsoft Office 2003 tools.  Many of these tools use the VBA FollowHyperLink method and this has worked perfectly with Firefox until the latest version -- 85.0.  With version 85.0, when the code executes the FollowHyperLink with an address, Firefox starts but the "new tab" is empty and the address control has the "Search with ..." message.  If Firefox is already running, the method creates a new tab (as it did with previous versions) and Firefox opens the specified address.  I have reverted to IE as the default browser and it works as expected -- if IE is not running, it starts, and displays the specified address. </p><p>So it appears that Firefox 85.0 is not listening for an address while it is starting.  Is there a way I can override this behavior? </p><p>Thanks, Chris </p>

The annoying thing is that in FF, it will autocomplete <a href="http://gmail.domainname.com" rel="nofollow">gmail.domainname.com</a> every time, even if I shift+del it from history, because if I type it even once, it goes to the top of the list. I would prefer chrome's behavior where it will generally only give me <a href="http://gmail.com" rel="nofollow">gmail.com</a>, then once I get to "gmail.d", it will suggest <a href="http://gmail.domainname.com" rel="nofollow">gmail.domainname.com</a> and I can just quickly hit enter. </p>

I don't save many passwords, but usually it remembers my log in to things like my email and drive which I need for work. It's become quite cumbersome because I don't want to leave my computer on or in sleep mode 24/7. Is there something I can do about this? I'm on an updated Mac laptop. </p>

<p>I looked at a previous thread on this - back in 2014, so I hope someone has an answer now. After downloading Firefox (for privacy reasons) all my existing .pdf files became Firefox .html files.

But how do I get my existing files turned back? At the moment I feel very much like Joe (last thread in 2014) - Firefox should warn of this before downloading. One does not expect a Browser to change existing file types. </p>

And often there is not even a replacement available.  Is there a solution to the problem? </p>

<p>Every time I connect to a network that needs login, there is a warning bar appearing on the top of the webpage. The bar changes the screen size and cause all elements on the webpage shift down and resize, which takes about 4 seconds on my poor computer and it is very annoying. </p><p>How can I change the setting that the bar shows without moving the underlying webpage? Thanks. </p><p>Note my objective is the bar shows like "floating above the webpage". </p>

I have tried </p> <ul><li> looking for Firefox exception settings, to enable clipboard API functionally over http (vs https) for specific local IP, but could not find how to do that in FireFox </li><li> I have tried installing  <a href="https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy" rel="nofollow">Caddy</a> but without a domain name I couldn't get it to reverse-proxy to https </li></ul> <p>Am I missing an easy solution or do local servers need public addresses now. </p>

Everyday I spend 20 minutes of deleting/unpinning those sites because I don't give a sh*t about them. And there's no option to turn it off. You can turn off the whole top site section but that's not what I want. I just want to disable autosaving or autopinning random sites. Where and how can I do it?! If it isn't possible then I'm done with Firefox. </p>

<p>My neighbor is having a problem with Firefox that has just appeared (see attached jpeg). When trying to load Firefox an error message appears basically saying "the application has failed to start because it's side-by-side configuration is incorrect" . Whatever that means. It tells you to do a trace program from the command prompt but that didn't result in anything.  </p><p>At the same time we are noticing that the desktop short cut says " Firefox -Copy-Copy-Copy-Copy -Copy"  May not be related.  </p><p>Any one seen this before? What do we do next?  </p><p>Thank you </p><p>Ron </p>

<p>I was googling fine, went to eat, and when I came back this security alert appeared when tried to google something, and it also appears if I try to enter Youtube, like if Google sites now are a security risk for Firefox? </p><p>Edge opens them, Chrome opens them, WTF?? I just went to eat, didn't update nothing, didn't add a cookie, didn't restart the computer, I didn't even close the browser, I JUST WENT TO EAT. This is for those that say "restart", "clean your cookies", "update Firefox", I've already tried the obvious, what the hell happened? Did Firefox get in a fight with Google or what? </p><p>Do developers read these topics or we're just "helping each other"? Well, thanks for any info on the matter... </p>

<p>I was asked to refresh my Firefox, because it started slowly. Frankly, I'm very hesitant to do so. Last time I did that, which was some time ago, I had many problems and it took some time to repair those problems that it created. What does Firefox help suggest I do? Is there still going to be problems once I do a refresh of my computer browser? Thank you. </p>

<p>Summary: On windows 10, getting error messages on websites including big names like <a href="http://logitech.com" rel="nofollow">logitech.com</a> after firefox updates from 84.0 to 85.0.  Reinstall of 84.0 and sites work again.  Other major browsers also work fine. </p><p>Specific error message is:   Secure Connection Failed" "An error occurred during a connection to ***websitehere***.  PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR."  "The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified." </p><p>Troubleshooting: - I did an uninstall on the machine and deleted all mozilla folders from program files / app data followed by a fresh install of firefox 85.0 on machine, didn't help. - I uninstalled firefox again and wiped folders then installed 84.0 and turned off updates.  All websites work fine.  After auto update to 85.0, sites don't work again. - Cleared cache/history/etc and even created a new profile.  Nothing helps. - Doesn't happen on all machines I don't think but is starting to appear on several and that number has been increasing over the last 2 days.  I haven't looked to see if I could find someone's machine that has 85.0 and is working besides mine yet. </p><p>Side note: - I received a replacement laptop on Wednesday for work and did all windows updates prior to installing any programs, domain join, etc.  As part of the program loadout I install, firefox is included in that list.  I installed 85 available from the website and <a href="http://logitech.com" rel="nofollow">logitech.com</a> works fine. </p><p>Ending comment: - Appears to be some kind of issue that happens right after firefox does it's update and whatever the root cause is sticks behind after an uninstall and deletion of all the folders.  Maybe something in the registry? </p><p>With how many computers this is starting to show up on now, it would appear that this should be noticed by others and I wanted to reach out and make sure Mozilla is aware. </p>

<p>For the longest time, years, we have encountered interactive pop-ups that lead to failure of firefox to supply user friendly interaction. I can only think this has driven less avid users to decline interaction with firefox, basically driving them to other browsers or means instead of persisting with firefox. You've launched an older version of firefox is the most notorious pop-ups that has ever been delivered from firefox. the message goes on to read: </p><p>Using an older version of Firefox can corrupt bookmarks and browsing history already saved to an existing Firefox profile. To protect your information, create a new profile for this installation of firefox. </p><p>Most every time I open a file by this means it is through the file local system clicking on an html file and other times it occurs from an application on this computer directing me to a site where I should obtain specific information. I want you to remember that every time we save a pages those saves are in the file/folder combination of html that reside to on the computer; and, every time we wish to open one of these we are addressed with this less than ideal situation. </p><p>This advice has several deficiencies. First off as I see is that instead of offering a means to update the current version of firefox the user is given no alternative except to 'create a new profile'. How can this be a better alternative than an update? </p><p>Frustration that derive from this interaction is: </p><p>one, when I open a file I usually would like it opened in a specific profile so that all the data becomes associated with that profile </p><p>two, not only the time it takes to create a new profile and the lapse in an uninterrupted thought process but what to do with all the one-off profiles that are created in order to handle this particular situation. Further, every time a user wishes to open a file of this nature there is never an alternative means to tackle this reoccurring problem. For years it has been the same end-run-about. </p><p>In addition, this dialog seems flawed as we can always open the file with right-click file and select 'open with' through the file system in which the html file reside on the computer; but not when directly clicked on. If you try to search and read for the accepted answer to this issue you will find the answer is a bit more complicated than the average user will endeavor to install. More, I have seen that I can open the browser through the profile dialog box and never is it more than one version off yet I still have to deal with the frustrating pop-up. </p><p>Can we get an update button on the 'You've launched an older version of firefox' dialog box? </p><p>Thanks in advance! Gll </p>

<p>Hi, </p><p>I have a 16:9 aspect ratio webcam (a Sony A6300 connected to a HDMI to USB adapter, output 1920x1080 with 30fps). This camera setup works correctly with programs such as Skype, Zoom and the windows camera app, but it does not work with Firefox.  </p><p>Instead, Firefox takes my webcam feed and squeezes it into a 4:3 aspect ratio, making my head having the wrong proportions. I have checked this on various websites, from webcam test websites to video conferencing tools, all with the same result. This leads to me the assumption that the problem lies with Firefox. I have checked the settings and found nothing, and Google gave me an unanswered question on Reddit with the same problem and some results aimed at web developers. </p><p>My Firefox version is 84.0 and I am running Windows 10 (Windows_NT 10.0 18363). </p><p>Best regards and have nice day. </p>

<p>Firefox 85 is auto filling info into webforms - including Credit Card details.  I would like to modify this.  But when I select Options&gt;Privicy &amp; Security&gt;   and look between 'Logins &amp; Passwords' and 'History' I find that 'Forms &amp; Autofill' is missing.   I am using Widows 10 20H2 and UK English. Can anyone suggest how to get access to Autofill? </p>

<p>Hello, I have trouble getting sound playback on firefox (checked 85.0 and 78.7.0esr both 64 bit) on windows 10. I checked sound on youtube, and netflix. I checked other applications like spotify and mpv, and soundplayback there is fine. Also it works on Firefox nightly (87.0a1). </p><p>What i have already tried: - restarting my computer - opening windows volume mixer and see if firefox is muted - updating my audio driver - different playback devices (Device over HDMI and Line out) - reinstalling firefox - uninstalling firefox, delete folders in C:\Users\$username\AppData\Local C:\Users\$username\AppData\Roaming - new install with fresh downloaded installer - restart to safe mode </p><p>Since firefox nightly is working i suspect that maybe the application name "Firefox" is muted somewhere. This could explain why i can reproduce my error on ESR and stable but not on nightly. </p><p>Thank you for your help in advance </p>

<p>In just the last day, since the Firefox 85 update, I have not been able to click on eBay advertisement pictures to get them to expand so I can view them full screen (using eBay's image viewer I assume). </p><p>here is an imgur video of me trying to click the picture, please note the "javascript:;" in the bottom left as I click the images . . .  </p><pre>      <a href="http://imgur.com/a/Uww46VF" rel="nofollow">imgur.com/a/Uww46VF</a> </pre> <p>I've also loaded a couple of images of the tracking exception I added and a Firefox "Inspector" screenshot of the page and some error indicated at the bottom of that Firefox "Inspector" related to eBay pages. </p><p>I did use Safari yesterday or the day before, which I've recently updated as well. I almost NEVER use Safari or Chrome etc. because Firefox is superior in EVERY way shape and form, including security, speed, innovation and quality of experience. I can honestly say I used those other browsers only in the last week or so and only for a very limited use. </p><p>I'm no expert at all, so I'm going to make a pure wild guess, that the problem has to do with some javascript update done by the other browsers (Safari specifically) or something done by a stupid 3rd party gaming site (ScoreDB dot io, I ran yesterday, which I should be much smarter than to even consider using), which appears to have now done some type of harm to my beloved Firefox in some way. I should say as well I do not know if this is just a temporary eBay glitch or not as it has only been doing this for about 1 to 2 days.  </p><p>I did turn off the "Enhanced Tracking Protection" for eBay as suggested in other articles but no effect even after reloading etc. I've rebooted and restarted everything as well but still no change.  </p><p>Any help much much much appreciated to help return my Firefox to full health! </p>

<p>Hello, We run a website that uses a bookmarklet button which allows us to capture the current URL location and save it. This is placed on the Tool Bar where its easy for a user to use. Until now, its been working perfectly but with this latest update to FireFox we are seeing the pop-up blocking being activated with the yellow message bar at the top.  Now this would be ok if we only had to allow the pop up once (by clicking allow site), but unfortunately the bookmarket button has to be able to work on all sites, which is the whole point of the button. So its impractical to keep allowing it every time its used. Disabling the pop-up blocker completely then works, but then the browser is open to other pop-ups. Is there any way to allow bookmarklets to display a pop up and not display a pop-up message? Without having to disable the entire pop-up functionality. Can the FF developers allow for user placed bookmarklets to not be pop-up blocked. Maybe an exception added for that. They are placed manually by the user so are allowed by the user only. </p><p>Thanks for reading. Paul. </p>

<p>Hello, very recently started to use Firefox rather than Chrome and it is taking a little time to learn so apologies if there is an obvious solution to this!! </p><p>I have been merrily adding bookmarks (after importing existing ones from Chrome) and they have all worked well (including inserting folders etc) until one to this site: </p><p><a href="https://www.voipcheap.co.uk/dashboard" rel="nofollow">https://www.voipcheap.co.uk/dashboard</a> </p><p>I have added an image to show 2 views on my Firefox installation to demonstrate. </p><p>I added it into a sub folder (I thought) but it did not appear.  I added it directly to the main Bookmarks toolbar and it did not appear.  I played around for a while and thought I had solved it - when looking at the Bookmarks in Sidebar view I can see a folder (that I created) and inside it is a bookmark to the site.  Trying it to view it by clicking through from the main toolbar window does not show it. </p><p>I am lost at what might be the problem - so if anyone is willing to try adding the site as a favourite in various places and anything else, if it does work can you help me get it to work in my installation with any suggestions?  Just for completeness, please add it first as a favourite on the toolbar directly where I could not get the basic globe icon to appear. </p><p>The only non standard thing I have done (on my desktop machine) is to add an extension that gives me colours rather than the standard greys but I have not used this yet on my laptop - the problem is the same but without the colours. </p>

<p>I have been using Firefox and Keepass2 for years.  Until the upgrade to Firefox 85, I could use Keepass2 to open websites requiring login names and passwords.  Now (most of the time) Keepass2 is not opening the websites I need to go to.  I think something happened when you put in the option to use Firefox 85 to import or use the Keepass2 data base to maintain maintain login names and passwords in Firefox 85.  Please check on this and let me know what the problem is and if I need to do something in either Keepass2 or Firefox 85 to fix this.  I want to continue using Keepass2 to enter login names and passwords and not have them remembered by Firefox 85. </p>

<p>Hi I am encountering a strange issue. I have two firefox computers and syncing is active. </p><p>I am trying to restore a previous version of my bookmarks (using the bookmarks library, Import and backup menu, restore function).  My problem is that at one of the following sync (ie within usually a couple of hours max) the previous set of bookmarks is systematically restored by sync. </p><p>I have un-registered / re-registered both computers, tried to use a different backups (from recent history or from a file export), tried to run sync immediately after the restore... nothing helps. </p><p>I activated log on success for sync. Apparently the restore is just ignored as I get this: <em> </em> Sync.Engine.Bookmarks.BookmarkSyncUtils	DEBUG	pushChanges: Processed change records: {"weak":0,"skipped":0,"updated":0} <em> </em> and later, suddenly the browser realises that lots of bookmarks are missing and cancels all the changes: " Sync.Engine.Bookmarks.BookmarkSyncUtils	DEBUG	pushChanges: Processed change records: {"weak":0,"skipped":0,"updated":4764} " </p><p>Has anyone faced the same issue? Is there a way to force a unidirectional push from the browser to the server? Thanks </p><p>PS: FF 85, one on Win10 and the other on MacOS Big Sur. Same behaviour on both machines. PPS: The machines are in two different locations. It is impossible for me to force the change simultaneously on both computers. </p>

When using the other browser, Safari, which I don't want to use since Apple stopped supporting this OS it doesn't happen and every Email prints out just fine.  Also, if I print with a screen shot the bar code doesn't appear.  I am a very low level user and any help would be appreciated.  MC </p>

<p>I have an idea which should enhance security within Firefox, specifically to improve the security of Extensions. </p><p>It has become clear that many extensions are collecting and selling information about users to tracking and advertizing companies, without the user's knowledge or consent! </p><p>In response to learning about this, I started to disable the extensions which I did not need all the time and then "re-activate" them only when I needed to use them. Keeping the active Extensions strictly to essential security minded ones and a few other that I feel I NEED on a very regular basis - or all the time. </p><p>This is a bit of a drag and takes time each time I want to use certain extensions, but I now feel that it is necessary - until extensions are PREVENTED from collecting and selling user data! </p><p>Today I had an idea which would help and make this "Less of a Drag"! </p><p>When I "Disable" an extension, it's icon disaappears from my toolbar and only re-appears when "Re-activated". It would be better if when "Disabled" the Icon STAYED on the tool bar - but "Greyed Out", and with a right click menu with only two items on it - 1) "Re-Activate this extension" and 2) "Remove this extension". It would be useful also for when the extension is "Active" that the Icon has a right click item "Disable this Extension"! - Currently there is only the option to "Remove", which is not what I want to do! </p><p>This one relatively small change would allow users who are aware of the dangers, to control potentially "Leaky" but USEFUL extensions. The vast amount of time they would not be ABLE to track and collect users data, which would make what they collect when "Activated" much less useful! </p><p>This would be a useful and EFFECTIVE tool against "malware" extensions which are collecting and selling user data. It would be a useful "Stop-Gap" until you get around to actually PREVENTING extensions from doing this!!!! </p><p>Ideally extensions should be PREVENTED from having access to or selling any data and should ONLY have access to information that is specifically NEEDED for the functioning of the extension. VERY CLEARLY the very broad designations of the current "Permission" system do not work!! </p><p>I hope you take action on this, because it would CERTAINLY help! </p>

<p>I'm having lots of trouble with Firefox stability, and even after fresh re-install yesterday, I still have the problem. 1) Sometimes when I start it, it does not start as an App. running on Task Mgr.; it shows as 2 or 3 background F.F. running in Task Mgr.  Also, I am unable to get the Task Mgr. to close these down, though sometimes they will close after several minutes.  However, then I cannot restart F.F. without the same thing happening. 2) Sometimes, after this happens, A Restart of the pc will allow F.F. to start and run normally, but then the Task Mgr. shows up to 7 F.F. running as active App., and sometimes some others are shown in Background apps. 3) Yesterday (1-29-21), I saved my Profile with all settings, bookmarks, addons, preferences, etc.  I then did a complete uninstall of F.F., and downloaded and installed the latest version as of now.  I then switched the profile to my saved profile, and it then seemed to start and work normally.  However, today I restarted the pc, and had the same identical problems again. 4) Thunderbird seems to work normally. 5) I had the pc checked by the shop at the local Micro Center last week, and they could find nothing wrong in the pc or Windows 10.  I've been using Firefox for a long time and really like it, but if I can't get this fixed, I dred having to switch to EDGE and losing all my F.F. addons. Can anybody suggest what is wrong, or if my profile is corrupted somehow? </p>

<p>Hi guys. </p><p>My asumption is that if an image has no color profile, Firefox will trate it as if an sRGB color profile is embeded. But I was reading some tests published by EIZO monitor's website, that say that Firefox will use the monitor's declared profile, for example Adobe RGB, but that sounds a bit wierd to me. </p><p>How does Firefox treat the color when an image lacks any color profile? </p><p>Here is the article. </p><p><a href="https://www.eizoglobal.com/library/management/web-color-management/index.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.eizoglobal.com/library/management/web-color-management/index.html</a> </p>

<p>Just when I think I have it figured out, I don't. When I open Firefox, I want <a href="http://outlook.live.com" rel="nofollow">outlook.live.com</a> to be the first thing I see in the first tab and I want it to always stay that way. I'm constantly having to change my Permanent Tabs and it's a waste of my time. And when I select to open a tab, half the time I never get a chance to open a different tab before the website opens and then everything is screwed up again. I have tried to open the tab first, but that doesn't seem to work. </p><p>At first I thought I needed to open a tab for Firefox Home Page to sign in, but I'm ALWAYS signed in. In the menu options, I see "exit" but nothing to log out. Do I presume that I am always logged in to Firefox? </p><p>Do I need a separate tab for Grammarly? I have the extension in my add-ons and after I choose it and sign in I don't know what to do with this add-on. The only options I see are to keep a tab open for this, but I usually close it after logging in. Is there something else I need to do? I cannot minimize this page. </p>

<p>When I open a new Mozilla Firefox window and before the homepage loads I can start to enter a search query into the unified address bar/search box.  </p><p>However, once the homepage is loaded it tacks on the webpage URL onto the search query. The result looks something like this: "my search queryhttps://<a href="http://www.google.com" rel="nofollow">www.google.com</a>". This prevents me from correctly searching what I need for once I hit enter. </p><p>It's a small nuisance, but I was wondering if there is a way to correct this? If not, perhaps there is a way to offer feadback to the Firefox team? </p>

A good result is to tell me why is not possible to open it and put me in position to complain to CRA , explaining the reasons and ask for corrections. </p><p>THANKS Have a nice weekend Piero </p>

<p>My Firefox desktop shortcuts, about 20 of them, suddenly became renamed with numbers added at the start, eg. "BBC Radio Stations" became "20170202215958 BBC Radio Stations"  Also found many more in other folders. Not sure if this happened after update, a progam install or by something I did. Probably a red-herring, but many look similar to the Build ID in the shared data below ie. starting with 2020... 2021... Should I worry or just rename them again one at at time? </p>

<p>Having only recently been on here to try to sort out all my Thunderbird E-mail settings, I am now getting the error message 80004005 each time I attempt to send an E-mail from my <a href="http://tiscali.co.uk" rel="nofollow">tiscali.co.uk</a> account. I am using all the recommended settings ( i.e. all the settings recommended by Talk Talk ) except that it seems not possible to combine the connection security setting SSL/TLS with outgoing port number 587 ( which is recommended ! ) Instead, when I enter outgoing port number 587 the connection security setting always defaults to STARTTLS. Could this be the cause of the latest problem ? I never used to get the error message 80004005 before ! And sometimes, when I DON'T get that error message, I get something else instead which says " Your Connection to the Server has Timed-Out." This is clearly rubbish and not correct. For weeks I have had on-going problems of one sort or another with Thunderbird. I have a POP3 account and I am not sufficiently au-fait with computers to think of changing it to IMAP. Any suggestions gratefully received ! SG. </p>

I always use my browser in maximised windows and in other browsers like Brave or Chrome, I can easily move my mouse pointer all the way to the right on the screen and click the mouse to snap to a particular place on the scroll bar, since the scroll bar extends all the way to the right edge of the window. </p><p>However, in Firefox it seems that there is padding on the right side of the scroll bar meaning that I 'overshoot' the scroll bar itself and accidentally click on the padding, which sends the scroll bar flying all over the place. </p><p>How can I remove the padding on the right of the scroll bar and get a functionality similar to other browsers? I assume it has something to do with CSS styling, but I'm not very good with that kind of stuff... </p>

<p>One of the reasons I choose Firefox is a commitment to security and privacy.  So I wonder about all of the extensions. </p><p>I see Password Managers, Anti trackers, Anti Virus, Ad blockers, pop-up blockers, and other extensions that don't seem to fit into any category.   There are also proxy managers and alternative search sites, not to mention VPNs.  I understand that some password managers offer different features than Firefox.  And I understand that one might choose to select an anti-virus program or have a standalone.   </p><p>But the others seem to offer features that Firefox offers and are recommended by Firefox.  Is it that Firefox is good at many of these and there are some specialists to offer greater security? </p><p>I've got an ad blocker, a password manager, as well as HTTPS Anywhere, Privacy Badger.  I use Cloudfare's DNS Server, a VPN when traveling, have a standalone virus checker, Ghostery, DuckDuckGo Security Essentials, a dead bolt lock and a laser defense system.  I change my route to work each day, have removed my amalgam fillings, change my hair color weekly band am known for my collection of tin-foil hats. </p><p>But seriously, I do recognize the need.  But I wonder if redundancy is a problem.  I see things recommended and ask, "But doesn't Firefox do that already?", "Does this duplicate what the other add on does?" and "Won't all these add ons conflict, use up more memory, or cause problems?"   </p><p>It feels as if I'm getting on a boat that promotes the security features that offers to sell me extra life preservers as I enter. </p>

Is that safe, i.e., is the credit card information encrypted (even without a Primary Password)?   </p><p>And if so, would anybody be able to explain the differences between these two approaches and why it's not possible to use OS authentication with logins/passwords in a safe way but it is with Credit Cards? </p>

What I see on the web is help with Sync: 1. sign in 2. click 'hamburger', my ID, &amp; Sync Now 3 open Firefox on another computer  ... and here's where the help diverts from what I would like to do.  I do not want, every single time, to manually click 'hamburger', ID, Synced Tabs, etc.  I would like Firefox to automatically open all the tabs that were open on the previous computer.  I close Firefox on one with, say, 7 tabs open.  I open Firefox on another and have <strong>ALL tabs</strong> propagate.  Does anyone out there know of an add-on or some other setting to set?  Any help in this would be great. </p>

<p>So yesterday my Youtube comments wouldn't load, they didn't have an endless loading animation, the comments section would straight up not show up. It happened in the middle of browsing YouTube and disabling extensions does nothing to fix the problem. I decided to investigate further and when going into the network tab of inspect element I realized that the website data wasn't loading fully. I've had this issue on another website (that is highly important) before and because of the issue I had to use another browser. The issue is solved in Private windows, but that isn't ideal and I want the solution to be fixed normally. The screenshots shown below are what my youtube comments section looks like and 2 images, showing firefox not loading the page content properly at all compared to edge, with the website on firefox even thinking that there is nothing to display even though there should content displaying. Someone please help me, I love the Firefox browser but this really weird behavior is causing me to use other browsers instead. Thanks all. </p>

You typed in a login and a password and it asked to save and you could choose to or not to. That still works. Then when it came time to change that password it would ask to save the change. This sometimes works with the current versions but mostly doesn't. </p><p>The big issue it would appear is that lockwise cannot handle sites where you have more than one login to the same site. A pretty massive bug IMO. </p><p>A good example is <a href="http://login.microsoft.com" rel="nofollow">login.microsoft.com</a> or <a href="http://portal.azure.com" rel="nofollow">portal.azure.com</a> where there may be multiple active directory accounts for the same domain or even different domains. Work and Home plus anywhere that gives you a microsoft cloud managed account in order to access their services which is very common in the business world. </p><p>The old password manager could handle this without any issues. This new one is a piece of garbage and never should have been implemented. </p><p>How do I get this Crockwise password manager to ALWAYS ask to save CHANGED passwords where it already has a password saved? </p>

<p>This is really not specifically about Firefox Sync or Firefox itself, but I can't find a better match. </p><pre> Months ago I changed my email address with Firefox Accounts.  I currently log in with the new email address and I only see the new email address under my account preferences.  But when I add a new device to Firefox Sync, the "Complete Sync Setup" email is going to my old email address, meaning the one I previously used with my Firefox account. </pre> <pre> Can anyone suggest if there is a way to change this or if there is something I am doing wrong? </pre> <pre> Thanks for any help! </pre>

<p>Hello,  I'm currently using Firefox vers. 85.0 on my MacBook Pro running Mac OSX 10.13.6.  I regularly watch a fair number of YouTube channels, and every thing was working fine until about 4-5 days ago.  Now, when I go to any YouTube channel,  the Comments portion of the channel does not load or show up.  The area where the comments portion normally is, is just blank...nothing there.  I've made no changes to any of my settings...that I can remember.  I tried restarting Firefox with all add-on's disabled and the problem still exists.  I'm pretty sure the source of the problem is in this browser, because when I fired up version 84 of Firefox, the problem did not exist and the YouTube channels I visited all had their comments section present and functional.  Any ideas what's going on, and how to fix it? Best regards, Bill Cheb </p>

<p>Hello, </p><p>Since a while now, Firefox is really slox on my computer. Here is what I use : </p> <ul><li> Ubuntu 20.04.02 (an LTS version) </li><li> Intel i5-8250u &amp; 16Go of RAM </li><li> Firefox 84.0.2 (64 bits) </li></ul> <p>I experience, as mentioned, heavy slowness while loading and switching between pages, but also when I want to select DOM elements like links or buttons. Firefox actually freezes for sometimes, I guess depending on how long it has been opened, but I am really not sure. When switching from one page to another I even get a loading circle, even in private mode. And it does matter if I am on a "heavy/complex" page like Facebook or Youtube, or "simpler/lighter" pages like Wikipedia or some random blog. </p><p>What I tried to solve the issue : </p> <ul><li> used Firefox in safe mode </li><li> cleaned Firefox cache </li><li> used Firefox integrated repair mode </li></ul> <p>Yet, even though I got to admit Firefox did not have freezes after a repair operation or cache was cleaned for a few while, slowness always come back. I cannot afford to do that everyday. </p><p>Is there a durable solution to this issue ? Thanks, Lou. </p>

<p>Hello.  </p><p>Short cut keys need to have a activate/deactivate control.  </p><p>IE. I do a lot of email writing. I am doing it right now in fact.  There is some short cut key combination that "goes back one page" in the browser.  Is this clear? It steps back a html page. Goes to the previous web page etc.  </p><p>I do not want this. I do not want this short cut key. I do not want this functionality.  </p><p>I do not want short cut keys AT ALL.   </p><p>This subject has come up a few times, it's a pain in the neck.  Can who ever is cooking up these short cut key things STOP.  Just because YOU want it does not mean other people do.  and if you hard boil this into the program ( firefox ) they you are  essentially pushing it onto people without the ability to turn it off.  </p><p>I do not want short cut keys, and ones on my mouse are EVEN WORSE.  ( that stupid side key on the mouse that send you back on page... uff !!! ) </p><p>I don't want some addon that I can edit. I don't want a long explination about how you  can't change short cut keys etc. I am sick to death of getting changes pushed out by developers who  have to justify their paycheck to the boss.  </p><p>In short! I need to turn short cut keys OFF.  </p><p>I want to be able to WRITE without fear of some RANDOM key mash  fouling my writing up.  Frankly I would be quite happy with ONLY typing keys working and all other keys and short cuts OFF.  </p><p>I cannot believe this is STILL AND ISSUE.  </p><p>Even CARS have a button for turning TRACTION CONTROL on or off !!!  </p><p>Yes I am mad. You bet. This is still a thing! Are you listening Mozilla ???  </p><p>Make it stop.  I write a LOT. I never want to step in the short key land mine ever again!  </p><p>Permanent Short cut keys?

<p>I used to be able to import bookmarks from Chrome that resulted in a single folder saying its from Chrome and inside the folder were all my bookmarks. That was up to yesterday. Now, it results in each individual file and folder being sent to Firefox instead of in a folder. And when I import those bookmarks from Chrome after making changes in the Chrome bookmark folders, they DONT change in Firefox; the same "old" information is still there. So the import bookmarks from another browser is now totally useless. </p>

<p>I have replicated this on several different Windows 10 2004 and 20H2 desktops. Before the version 85 upgrade, Firefox worked perfectly. The moment version 85 was installed, my NGFW / web filter identifies and blocks all traffic as the Ultrasurf proxy VPN. I can browse sites just fine in Edge and Chrome, but not in Firefox 85. Could this be related to the improved tracking protection, or the DNS over HTTPS? I can't adjust my filter since this is for a school. I need to figure out what is going on with Firefox. I have followed the documentation for this behavior (disable ipv6, disable DNS over HTTPS, etc), but none of those have resolved the issue. </p>

<p>I have multiple google accounts on my mac and I recently switched over to Firefox. I tried to really quickly import some things and figured while I was doing it I might as well import everything. I imported all of the information from another persons google account and I'm not certain how I even managed it. It would take upwards of an hour to delete all this information and I'm not sure whether or not when I delete things like passwords on firefox if its also deleting them on google or not. I just need to undo the entire import. I don't need to figure out how to import from my google account or anything at this point I don't really care. Where I think I went wrong is it gave me the option between two google accounts one of them saying a generic name and one saying mine. I forgot that their google account is under my name and that the generic one must have been mine. Is there any way to just undo the entire import? </p>
