Greetings...

I have read the Refresh Firefox instructions that appear in the "Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings" Firefox support webpage, including the "saved items" and "removed items" section.

Over time, I have made a number of changes in the "about:config" section of my Firefox browser.

Q: Would a Refresh of my Firefox browser affect any of these "about:config" changes?

Q: Is there a way that I can create a list of all "about:changes" that I have made?

Please advise. Thank you very much for your assistance!

Hi,

First of all, congrats to everyone for reaching version 150! It's a lovely browser with super nice utilities.

Now the question: i have about 15 tabs open and task manager shows about 80 (?!) processes open for these 15 tabs. I mean, it's a lot.... But the problem is that in Task manager options i ticked "ask me before applying eff.mode". And Firefox overrides that, it seems. Because now, from about 80 processes running, about half have that green leaf icon. And it's horrible to manually set eff. mode off for those 40 tabs. Daily??

What am i missing, is there a solution? Google (even with AI) is useless. Thank you!

The default setting for Firefox browser

I have now been prompted 10 times today to make firefox by default browser - it has been my default browser for years. Each time I go to windows settings to check - it does not show me that firefox is the default. I select default for firefox but still is doesn't follow the command. I did manage to get it to accept the default command ONCE today but when I rebooted the laptop it went back to prompting me to make it the default all over again - must be 10 times now. This is infuriating. Could this issue be due to a VPN I have (NORD)? Having said that, I have tried 8 times to set the default while NOT connected to the VPN. What can I do?

Hi,

The Mozilla VPN seems to have a hard time with the wired connection (or rather the opposite). As soon as the VPN is on, the connection stops working. The VPN do not recognize the wired connection, either.

There doesn't seem to be a mention of Ethernet connection anywhere in the FAQs.

Question: is the Mozilla VPN compatible with a wired connection?

Thank you!
