Firefox Community Forum

When i try to drag a text/word/link to between tabs (i generally have 10 tabs open) it opens a new tab at the far right. I tried to change "browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent" but it just opens the new tab next to the tab that i'm viewing. For example, when i'm at the sixth tab and i want to open a new tab (by dragging) between third and fourth tabs it opens that tab on the far right. This wasn't like that before how can i change it?

In the distant past, I used to be able to set Firefox to NOT auto-highlight the URL-bar when I single-click.

At some point Firefox removed this ability. I was wondering in 2025 if there is some workaround to get this function working again.

I would like to have Firefox work this way: -a single click places the cursor in the URL-bar without any highlight (if I want the entire URL-bar highlighted, I will use CRL+L) -a double-click will highlight a specific word or content between two dots (e.g., double-clicking on "mozilla" will highlight just mozilla in support.mozilla.org -it's fine with me if a triple-click highlights the entire URL-bar but I don't require it.

Have new W11 laptop. Installed Firefox and have set it to my default browser but if I use the search box it opens the results in Edge. Where is the setting to enable W11 search box to use Firefox.

Hi – When I type a URL into the address bar, I get a list of suggestions for autocomplete. I can select the site I want, hit enter, and go to that site, or what I usually do is hit command+enter, which opens the site in a new tab. But for the last couple days, when I hit command+enter, the autocomplete deselects and I don't open a new tab. For example, if I type "go," the autocomplete suggests "google.com," I hit command+enter, and the current tab I'm on goes to "go.com."

This is really a pain because it's a very natural part of my workflow to go to websites in new tabs. Of course I can just open a new tab and type in the URL there, but I'd love to be able to keep using my browser the way I'm used to. Is it possible that I made a change to my settings accidentally? I can't find anything in the Firefox settings but I imagine i must have done something. I did check and none of my keys are stuck or anything.

I'm on MacOS Monterey, Version 12.7.2, and my Firefox is version 136.0 (64-bit)

Thank you very much!

I'm trying to access my printer's embedded web server (EWS) by typing the printer's IP address into the address bar (as instructed by Dell support ). However, when I do this on desktop, Firefox treats the IP address as a search term, and takes me to search results instead of the the EWS. When I tried on Firefox for Android and Firefox Focus for Android, I did not have the same issue, but instead was taken to an all-black page (still unable to access the settings I need!). Any thoughts as to what might be going on and how to fix it?

Google Chrome treats the IP address as a search term on both desktop and mobile, so this might be a problem bigger than Firefox.

Within my account my location is listed as US. However, whenever I search for Amazon, Amazon.ca appears. I cannot seem to stop or correct it, though I have followed the steps posted here by others. I do not see Canada or CA listed anywhere in my account.

I get the above message when signing into a web site that I use. What does the message "404 INVALID URL" mean, why does it appear and how can I correct it?? I have checked the URL (address I am trying to reach) and it is spelled correctly.

Hello, This is definitely an annoying bug because each time I right click a specific tab then "Open a new tab on the right", there's no focus on the url bar. And when I want to type something I have to bring the mouse inside the url text zone and click before typing.

It would really be a nice QoL to have.

Thank you ~

A video of what is happening . This only happens when I search something up, for example, if I search more than one thing up on Pinterest, Google and sometimes Youtube . . . I'm sure it's not related to any extensions, the only one I installed recently was Privacy Possum, but after noticing this issue I deleted it and it didn't resolve the issue.

Installed Firefox on my laptop. Already running on my desktop.

Whenever I try to open a link, I get: Get an app to open this 'microsoft-edge' link

Your PC doesn't have an app that can open this link. Try looking for a compatible app in the Microsoft Store.

Is this Microsofts way of saying "Use Edge?" Can I change settings to make it work?
