Firefox Community Forum

I have just installed firefox on my new computer. I had firefox on my old computer and laptop that are both still running. It has pulled in a list of mostly obsolete accounts and passwords which are listed when I select "passwords" I did not ask firefox to do this. why has it done this. what else may it have done that I don't know about

Whenever I try to open a pubg.com web page (for example https://pubg.com/en-asia/news/8727) I get a very dark outline of the page with no access to any of the links. Can you assist?

I have a lot of Firefox windows and tabs open, and I really don't want to lose my session.

I wanted to open a webpage in Firefox in fullscreen mode. But evidently there's some kind of serious flaw in Firefox that makes it incapable of opening webpages in fullscreen mode. Everyone says the only workaround is to open the webpage in kiosk mode. So I tried it.

But now I have two big problems:

1. One of my Firefox windows, with all its tabs, is stuck in kiosk mode. (Even if I close the window and then restore it with Ctrl+Shift+T, it's still in kiosk mode.)

2. All new Firefox windows I open with Ctrl+N are also stuck in kiosk mode.

I don't know what to do, and I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks!

hi in current version of ff on a win 10 pc.

i have somewhere a fold in ff called "cars"., can anyone tell me how to locATE IT

the advice i previously got no longer works THAanks

firefox used to have good history now it's only 7 days? i need to see more than 7 days, all of it being available is ideal. what prompted this - although i've been irked by it before - is needing to know how i got to a website, what was the search and/or tab spelunking that got me there? it's really important to know this. relying solely on google search (if that'll yield part of the trail) seems contrary to firefox ethos.

Subject: OCSP Must-Staple Behavior Observations in Firefox (Including iOS Platform)

Dear Firefox Team,

We have been conducting tests involving certificates with the OCSP Must-Staple extension and would like to share several observations regarding Firefox’s behavior across different platforms:

General Compliance with Must-Staple: On most platforms, Firefox correctly enforces the Must-Staple extension. That is, if a certificate includes the Must-Staple flag and the web server fails to provide a stapled OCSP response, the connection is appropriately terminated.

Unexpected Behavior on iOS: However, we have observed that Firefox on iOS does not appear to enforce this requirement consistently. Even when the server does not provide a stapled OCSP response, the browser still establishes the TLS connection. We are unsure whether this is due to platform limitations or an implementation inconsistency.

Redundant OCSP Requests Despite Stapling: Additionally, we found that Firefox still initiates an OCSP request even when a valid stapled response has already been provided by the server. This behavior not only degrades performance but may also introduce privacy concerns, it contrary to the original privacy and efficiency goals of OCSP Stapling.

Hi,

I recently set a custom background image for the Firefox new tab page (and possibly the homepage), but now I’d like to remove or replace it.

I’ve already tried:

   Going to about:config and enabling the following:

       browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabWallpapers.customWallpaper.enabled → true

       browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabWallpapers.ui.enabled → true

   Searching for a gear icon or any UI options on the new tab or homepage – but nothing appears.

I also checked about:preferences#home but there are no visible options to manage background images.

How can I remove or change the custom background image? I’d appreciate instructions, config paths, or a file location where I can delete the image manually.

Thank you! p.s. I'm stuck with a background image that makes my shortcuts unreadable and it's driving me crazy. 😅

Hello. Why doesn't Fiery Fox release a portable version of the browser? What if everything was in one folder and didn’t shit throughout the entire system?

We kindly ask you to start releasing a portable version.

Thanks for your understanding.

Best wishes.

I'm finding some web pages are not working correctly or are not working at all. I know it's not the web page as other browser's are working fine. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Firefox version: 139.0.4 (64-bit) OS: Windows 11

I have been having issues where Firefox tab will just crash out for no reason it appears and it happens at random times and once the tab start to crash, and I restore it, it will crash again and again. The only way tog et out of the loop is to restart Firefox.

I have tried: Refreshing/Reset, Clearing Cache and History removing all themes, disabling extensions, disabling my anti virus. Turning off hardware acceleration didn't make any different.

I currently have 2 extensions enabled: uBlock Origin 1.64.0 and Bitwarden Password Manager 2025.5.0

In the about:Crashes I have reported them all and they seem to have the same type of reasons in the Raw data/Minidump which are: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ

Any help as to what to try next?

Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue

Firefox detected an issue and did not continue to mmlsay.assam.gov.in. The website is either misconfigured or your computer clock is set to the wrong time.

It’s likely the website’s certificate is expired, which prevents Firefox from connecting securely.

What can you do about it?

mmlsay.assam.gov.in has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

I am on medical marijuana and I cannot use the site because email says I needs a new browser. Without this new browser I cannot get anything from the Medical Marijuana. Everything from the state goes through the email system. There Is a problem with my medical card. It is not working. I have been trying for over a week to get the code I need to open the site and order a new card. I was told that the fasted way to do this is to go through Lost or Stolen card. Cannot get where I need to go because of my email needs a new browser. I am on loop and cannot get off the merry-go-round without help, so please help me.

When I tried to go through, google wanted me to use a new address. bonniegeo346, however [email removed]@ gmail works. Does it matter which I use?

Previously, when printing a website, you could select the text on the page and then click print and then there was an option (Print SELECTION) that would allow you to print only the highlighted text.

I cannot find that option on the modern firefox print window/dialogue?

I understand, it's not an easy task, but the browser becomes unusable, if every time I install a new extension, there is no quality check whatsoever, and I end up having to restart in troubleshoot mode to find out which extension is causing parts of the webiste I am visiting to now show up. It's just frustrating. I very much value having to many extensions and that's why I use Firefox on a mac as the main browser, but something has to be done. Extensions should satisfy some basic rules and not cause malfunctioning!

I received an email at an email account I don't use for my Mozilla Firefox, thus why seems suspicious and strange to me. So I researched it here and saw the answer to another persons same question. I did go and check, I am logged in. Firefox is my primary and I use it constantly. Also on my phone and tablet, same account. As I write this, I have about 15 tabs open and active. The email associated to my account is not the same as the one I got this email at. The email I got it in, I use for solicitation, signing up for things and things I don't trust. This is what the email stated (same info as what was posted by the other person that got this same post) I copied and paste vs. Screen shot... so the Mozilla logo didn't show up. MIND YOU, I HAVE NEVER GONE 2 YEARS WITH NOT BEEN ACTIVE ON FIREFOX. AND I ONLY HAVE ONE ACCOUNT. PLEASE ADVISE --- The email they sent it to is [email removed]@gmail.com
