Anytime I click a link in Firefox...whether it is in a search result OR in my email OR on a website...two duplicated tabs open every time. I noticed this was an issue a few years ago but it appears to have returned after the latest Firefox update last week. Has anyone else had this issue? Thank you, Brian

'Your browser is being managed by your organisation' This appears at the start of settings on my computer, which is a personal computer & not an organisation. The issuer name of the certificate is 'Internet Security Research Group' - Common name ISRG Root X1. Subject name organisation is 'Let's encrypt' (R11). I have recently been finding a frequent inability to access websites, such as DuckDuckGo search , as well as others, being labelled inaccessible. This is often followed by a loss of internet signal, and I have to shut down completely, then restart. I am beginning to suspect that ISRG Root X1 / R11 are responsible for limiting internet access by my personal computer. How do I turn off this organisation and Your browser is being managed by your organisation' from my computer, please?

Hi,

Firefox keep sites logged in after restart. FF crashed recently and it has happend ever since.

It doesn't happend in other browsers, so I know it's a FF thing.

I use the Bitwarden passwordmanager, but I turned it off, and pages are still logged in after restart.

What can it be?

Thanks!

I use Google Drive with two accounts.

Thumbnails are displayed on one of them. No matter what I do, thumbnails don't appear on the other one.

Both appear on Google Chrome. They also appear on my smartphone.

I would like to know why they don't appear on some accounts.

Somebody better answer me as I am about to switch my default browser from Firefox to something else. I have already asked this question but never received any response. For a long time now I keep running across sites that do not work on Firefox. It can be a streaming site such as Paramount+ or it could be my phone service site Ting. In all of the cases and there have been quite a few I am always able to find another browser the sites will work on. 9 times out of 10 they will work on Chrome but I have found at least one that does not work there but will work on Edge. So, right now Edge is the prime candidate to switch to. I do not want to quit as it would be a pain in the ass as I have been a loyal user for at least 15 years and have stuck with you as I believe in what you are doing and represent but it is becoming to much of a pain to continue using you because I like the convenience of using only 1 browser 99% of the time. I hope to hear from somebody this time. If not I won't be here for much longer. Thanks, Bruce Hansen [email removed from public forum]

The site is BBC iPlayer so from my understanding should be readily available and am signed into. i have previously and have had to log in on occasion. If I am now having to reset numerous passwords and other settings then there is more invasion of privacy by dicating what I can and cannot see - my PC, although old, can handle large cookies and has done so before. This leads to the question of how the browser cache is arranged , as it appears that I am struggling to reset and install exemptions ( rather a lot!!).

I just want to restore to where I was a week ago when I had no problems

If you can't answer, I don't mind switching to a browser that isn't losing market share for eighty straight quarters due to features exactly like this.
