Hello,

At the last FF update, I discovered that I had VPN on my top status bar but what does it do?

I have v. 150.0.1 (64 bit). Also Windows 11. I live in France and the only reason to use a VPN is to watch a UK soap which I cannot watch by any other means unless it's live on the TV. I know how to turn it on (obvious), so when I use the BBC website, this is what I do. But it makes not the slightest bit of difference as I am still recognised as being outside the UK.

Am I not doing something please?

Hello Im having trouble getting the free vpn showing I tried resting the toolbar and restarting firefox and reinstalling. I dont see it on the toolbar or custom toolbar to drag and drop. Thanks Mike

I want to dowload V150. The current Firefox version sucks. If you don't let me download an earlier version then I will stop using Firefox because the latest version is SHIT!

I followed the instructions to access Mozilla Firefox and nothing happened. Then there are unlimited instructions that lead me nowhere? It used to be so simple. That was the original Microsoft approach for new users.

I have finished my setup. But it keeps saying "finish setup" in the upper right corner of the browser. I have completed all the steps. I want to sync this desktop to my mozilla account. What do I do?

Hi

I don't know which wrong manipulation I have done, but the "+" sign to create new tabs has disappeared.

Could you please help me to get it back ?

(I know that I can right-click and choose "new tab" in the menu, but the "+"sign is definitely more convenient 😅)

Thanks in advance ! :)

The VPN is supposed to show in another country, but the website in question does not recognise it is in that country. (BBC iplayer) BBC.co.uk works as it is thinks it is in the UK, but the iplayer does not.

Hello, I have a protonmail account connected to my firefox account. The protonmail account was inactive for a while. Now I am trying to connect a new device to my firefox, but the E-Mails never reach me. I have added accounts@firefox.com as a contact and whitelisted it from being seen as spam. Is there any way to solve this without making a new account?

I understand that VPN was progressive roll out, but I have been able to successfully use it for the last two months. Today I upgraded to version 151.0.4 and the VPN icon was no longer up in the toolbar. I thought maybe I did something wrong and went back to customize and put it back on, but it's just not there anymore.

Did you decide to roll it back without warning?

Hi! A few minutes ago I was in the process of signing up for a website- creating an account log-in and password. Firefox asked if I would like to use an automatically generated password- which was displayed. Of course this is nothing new and I always say yes. The password automatically saves (or I guess it asks me first and I say yes) to the password section in the browser settings. Always easy! But this time it did not save it- I tried it twice and neither time it saved. I read some of the support posts and someone advised to make sure it was checked in my iOS settings. It was NOT so I checked it. But strange because it’s always saved all the others? Anyway I was wondering if there’s a way to see recently generated passwords similar to what the iOS password generating and saving tool has been doing for a little while now (not implying anything here!). That’s all I guess, thank you so much!!

I have been using Firefox forever. It has been running very slow and bugging out especially with you tube on close. I've been working on this for a couple of weeks and am about to give up. My self built system is about 10 months old. Am using a completely debloated MS 11 pro 25h2. Did not ask for AI from Firefox and have disabled AI in Firefox and copilot is long gone. I have tried everything. Am about to quit firefox. Have refreshed firefox and prevented firefox from running in MS win 11 pro "efficiency mode". I usually have to exit firefox with task manager - there are usually 17 instances of firefox running. Mozilla has become Microsoft.

The system: Gigabyte B650 mobo, 32 gig of DDR5 6000, AMD 7700X processor and an Asrock 9060 graphics card with 16 gig DDR6 Vram. All other apps are running just fine. So I don't think a lack of compute is the problem.

Help please! Thanks in advance!
