How do I turn off the Alt Text warning on images with no text?

Please appreciate that alternative text is not always applicable.

I use the Add Image button to tick off things on a list (add image of a tick) - for my own personal use, not suitable for webviewing. Halfway through the task these Alt Text warnings just obliterate my view of the document; my attempts to not have to print it, or not have to use Adobe, are thwarted.

I'm looking at a page of grey blocks that contain a triangle which in turn contains an exclamation mark, and I can no longer see the actual document behind them.

Sorry if I've posted in the wrong place.

On my site, I am not able to view images. I can on other browsers, but not with Firefox (Developer Edition). I have tried new profiles, private window, etc and images still do not display. Images DO display on most other sites, and this is my first time encountering the issue. Images show on every other browser that I have tested. The url to the website is https://www.nohacks.org

While using Outlook.com email in my Firefox browser, I attach a zip file to send to someone.

They reported that the zip file is empty. This happened two more times.

I confirmed that the zip file that I was uploading from my hard drive did indeed have files included.

I then downloaded the attached zip file from the email in my "Sent" folder. It was empty.

When I tried using "Outlook.com" in the Chrome browser, I did not have the same problem.

I'm using Firefox ESR version 128.9.0, on Windows 10.

(The downloaded empty zip file also had "utf-8" added to the file name - that problem is addressed in other tickets and is being worked on. I am not asking about that.)

Problems when opening xml local file with firefox

Sometimes I need to open XML files on my PC or in a network folder. If I open the file in the first tab in Firefox, it displays a neat and formatted rendering that makes it easier to read. However, if I open yet another tab, it displays a sequential text file that's difficult to read. How can I apply the style of the first tab to all open tabs? I've attached explanatory images (I hope). The second image shows how I'd like the XML file to always be displayed, regardless of the tab's position. Firefox 149.0.2 on windows 11

When i try to open a document on firefox or upload/save something I end up with the error reading "The windows file-dialog could not be opened. No file or folder could be selected." This happens on every site. I disabled all my extensions/add-ons and ran the command prompt "sfc /scannow." Is there some way to fix this? Maybe in about:config?

I can't get out of a popup that blocks my view of downloaded docs

Suddenly every doc I download or preview is COVERED by something saying I "can now read and sign docs in Firefox" -- and I can't remove this popup -- or even relocate it so that I can SEE the doc I am trying to read.

Is this from my latest firefox upgrade?  Can I undo it?  

The whole popup thing is not even visible, so I can't find something to scroll down and say yes or no. Similarly I tried to play along with it and create a signature. I did that and clicked a "save signature" but again I cannot even see the whole thing so I cannot save it and get out of it. It won't let me take a screenshot so I can show you....
