I've searched & waited past few years for an Extension to make the TOOLBAR FONTS larger, none found. Reason being many of us are using larger monitors and TV's and we're usually sitting or standing further away from the screen. Problem is the font size cannot be changed, they stay small and hard to read comfortably. __YES I've reset my operating systems font size, that does not work in Firefox TOOLBARS. __Changing the "firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer" has been eliminated by Firefox. __Changing the "layout.css.devPixelsPerPx" to a larger number increases the whole TOOLBAR. I just want the FONT size larger. __(someone suggested) NO, I'm not going to setup 2 monitors.

Sure would like this issue fixed. In the pix below, it has been done.

I just had to reinstall firefox today, and now my bookmarks sidebar is on the right of the browser window. I want it back on the left side where it belongs, but I can't find any instructions on how to do that. I really don't like this. Am I going to need to just switch browsers altogether, or can I get my old firefox setup back?

The autocomplete dropdowns for form fields have recently changed appearance, and I strongly prefer the previous, simple design.

The new version has:

  • Clock icons next to autocomplete/history entries
  • Much more vertical padding, making the list unnecessarily large
  • Rounded "pill-shaped" highlighting when hovering over an entry

The previous autocomplete list was much more compact and clean, without the clock icons, excessive padding or rounded hover backgrounds.

Is there currently a setting, `about:config` preference or other supported way to restore the old autocomplete list appearance?

Ideally, I would like to use the previous style:

  • No clock icons
  • Compact rows with the previous amount of padding
  • No rounded/pill-shaped hover effect
  • Otherwise retain the existing autocomplete functionality

If there is no setting to restore the old appearance, could an option be added to allow users to choose between the old and new autocomplete UI?

This is absolutely driving me out of my mind, I no longer have a tiny drag space above my tabs- when I 'customizem toolbar' and try to add a flexible space above them, I can't. The only solution is to constantly have the menu bar turned on, and at that point I'd just opt out of FF. I cannot figure out why this happened, and I cannot seem to fix it- please help me

August 24, 2026 Sometime during the last month website backgrounds changed to black. I can't see well with black. I did not install colorways. I had things setup as I liked then suddenly everything changed. How do I switch to a lighter background? My desktop background is a custom medium green. I tried enabling a light theme - no success. I've already tried the Windows settings for accessability. All help will be appreciated.

If I grab the vertical bar and drag it to the right, a gap appears between the sidebar and the web page. If I move it to the left, the web page covers the right side of the sidebar. In both cases the width of the sidebar does not change. I am on Windows 10 with Firefox Version 154.0.

I would be grateful for any help on this.

The latest Firefox Update Sucks

The settings isn't KISS , Keep It Simple Stupid and the new added in slide bar to the left/right isn't needed it just fills the screen with more unwanted stuff even in full screen view, you can remove all of the icons for the other settings on it, there is on option to remove it from the screen altogether.

Monitoring security cameras the display appears offset not like it use to be also.

At least i have a backup of the past four Fox updates including bookmarks Pw's ect so i can scrap the current one, have also set to prevent auto downloads both while using Fox and in the background, It can ask that is all.

For some reason it got reset and i don't know how that happened, that is how i got stuck with this one.

Hello. 😊 I have a question about my copy of Firefox for Windows v152.0.6 x64. (For the record, I have nasty feeling that I'm using the wrong forum; but the address bar says I'm in the right one.)

In my main profile, the one that I have been using for years, the "Home and Startup" part of my settings page shows the following:

- Firefox Home

 - Search
 - **Weather**
 - Shortcut
 - Support Firefox
 - Recent Activity
   - Visited pages
   - Bookmarks
   - Most recent download
   - [Choose a wallpaper]
 - Firefox logo

Today, I went to about:profiles and created a new profile. This new profile offers different settings:

- Firefox Home

 - Search
 - **Widgets**
   - **Lists**
   - **Timer**
   - **Sports**
   - **Clock**
   - **Weather**
 - Shortcuts
 - Support Firefox
 - Recent Activity
   - Visited pages
   - Bookmarks
   - Most recent download
   - [Choose a wallpaper]
 - Firefox logo

That's strange, isn't it? Why the difference? And how can get all the goodies of the new profile under my old profile?
