My Firefox browser (119.0 Windows 64-bit) is at "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox" and always starts with the message "Hmm. That address doesn’t look right. Please check that the URL is correct and try again." What is Firefox trying to do?

I installed a user.js script to my profile, and even after deleting the file itself, the settings keep changing to what it wants, despite the file being deleted.

I've been troubleshooting this for a few hours now, and i surmise it got embedded in my firefox account somehow, because when i close firefox in task manager i can see a bunch of firefox processes doing stuff for about 30 seconds, and if i launch firefox again after that my browser is messed up.

In window's firewall i set a rule to not let firefox send and receive packets and while a block on receiving didnt do anything, the block on firefox sending data did prevent it from applying that fking user.js script. However, if firefox cant talk to websites its obviously useless, so im stumped.

I have deleted every single folder on my computer firefox uses, including cleaning the registry of its things aswell, so it has to be downloading that script from some server, but i havent been able to figure out from where. I assume its attached to my firefox account because, where else could it be getting the script from?

When i was installing the user.js script, i had no clue it would be so damn hard to get rid of. Thank fuck i have a backup of my profile.

With the latest update domain guessing is no longer working. I like just typing the name of the website and having Firefox add the prefix (https) and suffix (.com, org, etc. so I can move aorund the web just a little faster. The setting I used to turn it on is no longer in the about:config menu. Is there a way to get this back? For example, I was able to type in Amazon and the amazon.com website would automatically open in the tab. Now I get this

We downloaded the New Firefox Browser 119 and now we cannot check check boxes on our webpages. We can check the box for all, but not for individual check boxes on the same page.

I have to computer with totally different tabs. Will Firefox sync combine the two sets of tabs? I realize that I may have duplicates and a LOT of tabs. I just don't want to lose any tabs or bookmarks when the computers sync afterward. I am currently assuming that the tabs sets will be merged and that I will have to remove duplicates.

After the 119.0 Update, the Extension Button and Panel does not allow for access directly from the toolbar--the downloaded extensions (like AdBlock, Clock) are not able to be placed on the Toolbar per the Puzzle Icon to Pin to Toolbar

Until recently, when I entered a search request, I only received sponsored links which covered part of the screen. However now the list of sponsored links has grown so much that I am having to scroll through several screen pages before getting to the lings to the actual websites that I am looking for.

The number of sponsored links has grown out of all proportion and means that I am waisting a lot of time scrolling through items that are of no interest to me whatsoever. As an example, I recently made an enquiry about a medical condition and an Amazon sponsored links offered me a good deal on selling me that same medical condition!!!!

How can I or Mozilla reduce the high level of sponsored links. If it cannot be done then I will need to move to another browser.

I have search separated from the url bar, and I have Firefox Suggest configured to only use history for tab completion. I've noticed a couple problems.

• Search is being prioritized over options in my history. I have the separate search box, if I wanted to search I would use it. If I type a single character I want the most common result from my history to be the result of hitting tab.
• I've noticed recently that I'm getting sponsored results even though I have them disabled. It's somewhat inconsistent, and I've only noticed it in one of my profiles. Specifically I am used to "w <tab>" taking me to weather.gov but I'm getting sponsored results for AccuWeather. I clicked the "feedback -> not interested" button but this is concerning that Firefox is ignoring preferences and there's a pattern of sending data to Google and AccuWeather despite me configuring the browser not to.

Apprantly Firefox updated last night. I still show all the names of my bookmarks but NONE of them have any information in them. Probably lost my passwords too.

Tried all the fixes shown in prior posts. This is unacceptable !

as the title states, pages show up all messed up and i have no idea why, already ruled out cookies and extensions as well as the page itself Attachment should provide visual aid to the problem

Hello, after updating Firefox to v.119 a couple of issues have developed that I can’t seem to resolve.

First of all the Firefox logo has disappeared from my home page. To show what I mean here are some screenshots: The 1st one shows what I see when I open the browser as normal - as can be seen I have several extensions normally in use so the 2nd image shows Firefox opened in ‘Troubleshoot’ mode.

Both these two were taken with the Privacy & Security settings set to ’Strict‘, the 3rd image shows ‘Troubleshoot ’mode with Privacy & Security set to ‘Standard’. ~~~ Now onto the subject of fonts; I’ve done some searching around and even with the Privacy & Security settings customized to ignore fingerprinting, Firefox still ignores my font-setting preference, which is FreeSerif, usually at 14 or 16pt size. Despite me unchecking the setting to allow websites to use their own fonts I cannot get any page to load using my preferred font. This causes me problems as I suffer from a particular type of astigmatism which makes san-serif fonts difficult to read.

Thanks in advance for any help offered.

I've been trying to export my bookmarks to an external hard drive so that if something should happen to my computer I have a file of them. I'm using Windows 11.

When I export the bookmarks as an HTML file, it saves OLD bookmarks from a few years ago, not the current ones. I know this because when I go to my external hard drive and click on the file and open it up it shows the old bookmarks.

I have no idea why this is happening. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

The latest update of Mozilla Firefox to version 119 x64bit for Windows 10 seems to have peculiar problem. With this update my browser is not allowing to print a page or webpage with print option as "Save to PDF". The print preview of the page is shown with all settings but on clicking print button there has been no file got save or rather no file PDF or anything else gets create. In the same computer both Microsoft Edge and Brave Browser are allowing saving of any rendered page in their browser to save as PDF. This issue is recognized by me after my latest update of Mozilla Firefox. However, the same version of Mozilla Firefox x32bit running in my Windows 7 32 bit machine working correctly. I have tried all the options recommended over internet in this regard by Mozilla forum and others but nothing had worked for me. Even adding of any third party add-ons also remain defunct in this latest Mozilla Firefox browser. This is a serious bug and should be corrected as early as possible and therefore putting this herewith seeking a functional solution.

Hi! I am trying to have a biometric authorization with touch ID on Mac, and it says on the website that the option should pop up when i go to the password settings, but it doesn't, and I don't know how to do it otherwise, or if I should use an extension for example. I find this feature very useful to keep my infos private! Thank you in advance and have a good day!

Some websites display poorly on Firefox 119.0 on my Dell computer running Windows 11. Some of the letters of the fonts are too thin and hard to read. They display correctly in Edge.

I have used Inspect Element to see that the font is: font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

The problem goes away if I change this to: font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

I do not have the Roboto or Helvetica fonts installed on my computer.

The problem fixes itself if I turn off the setting for "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selection above." However, this is not a good solution, because it introduces other issues.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have researched this for several hours and tried many of the suggestions online.

1) I have disabled all extensions. 2) I don't have any Themes installed in Firefox. 3) I have tried "Smooth edges of images and text" turned on and off. 4) The problem still occurs when running Firefox in Safe Mode. 5) I don't have a "High Contrast theme" enabled in the OS settings. 6) I am not running uBlock Origin. 7) I have played with Clear Type but the problem was occurring before that. I have tried modifying Firefox's gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.gamma to the value of GammaLevel from Windows's registry Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Avalon.Graphics\DISPLAY1. 8) I haven't installed any fonts on my computer. 9) I tried setting security.sandbox.content.level = 1.
