How do I turn off the "split view" option... or move it somewhere else?

I get you are trying to add features... but this is one I dont need or want... and its in the place of a feature I ACTUALLY use "open link in new tab".

Very frustrating to try to open a new link only to loose HALF the screen I am currently using and NO WAY to move said tab off.

Unbelievably weird placement of this "feature".

I am working with Firefox version 150 and have checked tab notes in the settings box but the feature is not available. Right clicking on the tab provides a drop down menu including tab notes as being new but it is grayed out. the release notes indicate it was supposed to be available through the labs in March but now it is the last week of April and it is not available.

After an unwanted and un-needed update, all my tabs closed and I can't find them again. Then after rolling the browser back to a previous version, now all of my bookmarks are gone. I want them back where are they on the hard drive.

Every time I manually update firefox, it reinstalls the automatic update malware "Mozilla Maintenance Service". I can't stop this malware from being installed with my browser every time I update Firefox. I call it malware because its not wanted, and it behaves like malware by secretly downloading content without my consent and then shutting down my browser when it finishes by blocking access to all new tabs.

I've tried adding policies to stop auto updates, but Mozilla Maintenance Service ignores all policies. I'm going to see if I can contact AVG and explain to them that Mozilla Maintenance Service is malware and see if I can get it classified as such to see if that'll finally get through to someone because I'm sick of this crap constantly being installed and forcing things on me whenever they want and not when I want.

Now after this update, every google search forces open my location service trying to force me to give location rights. This update is even more malware than all the other updates before hand. Firefox is getting extremely dangerous.

Dear Sirs! I've been trying to install FF in several ways. Using installer.exe and setup150.exe. I started these files from same disk as the system (C), Temp folder empty and unlocked for read\write, located where it should be C-user-appdata-local-temp. I started files as administrator. Each time the setup fails with system notice like on the picture attached. It says "can not find specified file"

My notebook is very old, but it runs Win 10 OK, Chrome is OK also

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P8400 @ 2.26GHz 2.27 GHz 4,00 Gb SSD 224 GB SSD P4-240 Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1) (64 MB) x64 system

Please help!

After a recent update Firefox now often displays a Settings screen that appears over my open windows and tells me that I need to turn on Location Services.

This has never occurred before and Firefox has performed well for many years on both Windows 10 and 11. And no website or contact has ever complained to me about a lack of location information.

So is Location Services a necessity. And is it a benefit that I really should use?

You guys keep hijacking my browser and stopping all my work on a near weekly basis. Shutting down my ability to work on projects and stopping my browser from functioning in the middle of use. I can't even pay bills without you guys interrupting my browser with your bullcrap.

This is unacceptable. I've gone through great lengths trying to stop you from hijacking my browser. I installed a policy generator and followed the instructions to put a policy in. I uninstalled Firefox's background updater tool. I disabled automatic updates in the settings to the best of my ability.

I've gone through everything I can think of trying to stop your forced updates. Its unethical what Mozilla is doing to its users. I even tried to lock policies with admin only authorizations but firefox couldn't read the file anymore when I did that. I did confirm today that the policy file was still working, when Firefox ignored it and shut down my browser till I restarted it. I confirmed that Firefox is blatently ignoring policies.

I just checked and Background Maintnence was installed again when I didn't want it. You're now installing software against my will too? What the hell is going on.

I HAVE A HOME PAGE WITH ICONS. BUT WHEN I OPEN FOXFIRE NOW I GET A HOME PAGE WITH ONE ICON TO ADD MORE ICONS. HOW DO I GET FOXFIRE TO OPEN MY HOME PAGE? WHAT IS GOING ON? THE FIRST PHOTO IS WHAT IT SHOULD BE AND THE SECOND IS WHAT COMES UP WHEN I OPEN FOXFIRE.

helloooo

i am experiencing an issue with firefox where backup (Firefox Backup) is not working since version 148.0

problem: - when I try to create a backup, i get the error: “Hmm, there was a problem with the backup. Please try again in a few minutes.”

what I have already tried: - enabled and disabled backup password - changed the backup folder/location - cleared browser cache - tested across multiple updates (issue persists)

- backup is enabled, but I cannot create one - the error occurs every time - restarting the browser and system did not help
