Firefox Community Forum

Good evening,

I'm going to install the applicatioin because it hasn't been working for several monnths ( it doesn't work anymore ). For exemple , if I want to watch Netflix and the video starts playing , there's no picture, it just loops and the screen is black.

I've tried everything turning off the computer, closing Netflix, even Youtube . I'm at a loss.

Thank you

Hi!

Really weird issue I've noticed with my Firefox-based browsers.

Essentially, whenever I am within the "Save As" feature of my browser, I am unable to realistically do anything that requires the context menu (e.g. creating a folder, renaming). I can still do things, but each entry in the context menu has no text.

I am on Windows 11, and am using the most up-to-date verison of both Firefox-based browsers. I do have a lot of customisation software and/or registry changes, but this issue has started to show up after I've spent a while with these changes already implemented. I don't think it's the problem as I have tested without each of these, but I thought worth mentioning if anyone knows of any potential conflicts (and to clear up any confusion from the screenshots).

An example of the above that I thought would affect this is a registry fix to enable the "show more options" setting on the context menu to be selected by default whenever I right click (steps followed here: https://www.howtogeek.com/759449/how-to-get-full-context-menus-in-windows-11s-file-explorer/). I've just tested by reversing this change and issue persists, and like I mentioned issue did not occur previously when this fix had already been applied. I hope that's not redundant information, I'm just trying to give as much info as possible!

I typically use Floorp, but when I noticed this issue I have tried and verified that this issue also happens on regular old Firefox.

Other browsers I have installed and verified this issue is NOT present on:

• Microsoft Edge
• Chrome
• Pale Moon

The issue only seems to happen on FireFox and Floorp.

I have attached some images of what it is meant to look like ("expected_context_menu.png") and what it looks like on FireFox based browsers ("real_context_menu01.png").

Initially I though the menu was just useless, but it does appear I can actually use this menu without text as normal. I tested this by using the second-from-bottom option, and then the top-most option that marks the option for "New Folder" on the working context menu. I was able to create a folder as expected doing this ("real_context_menu02.png" and "real_context_menu03.png"), which suggests that it's just an issue with the text displaying.

Anyone have any ideas? Of course, I can provide any info about the OS customisation steps I've taken if needed!

I'd appreciate any help!

I've never uploaded here before so in case the images don't show the image name, they are uploaded in the order: "real_context_menu01.png" "real_context_menu02.png" "real_context_menu03.png" "expected_context_menu.png"

All but 2 of my previous saved windows have been lost. They are not recoverable or present when trying to use "Recently closed windows." How could this happen? More importantly, how can I recover them? They contain numerous tabs that will be impossible to recreate from memory.

In the menu for choosing which tab to add to a split view, tabs with the name/link of the original do not show up. I would like this fixed, although this is really only a minor inconvenience when duplicating a tab to put it into split view.

i used to be able to access Gemini by clicking an icon in the leftmost column of any Firfox screen. I nw get an error 502 message. How can restore access to Gemini

I tried a restore but the only date available for bookmarks was today (jsonlz4 file). I tried other online suggestions but I cannot locate any old files to restore from. If I cannot get them back, I will switch browsers because the loss is unacceptable.

The window is not coming, up. shut it down with task mgr. Deleted xul.json file and it worked for a little while. but broke toady. Windows update done andn restarted.

Hi there,

I'm wondering if I am experiencing intended behavior or if I've stumbled upon a bug. I am sometimes downloading files in a staggered manner (i.e., waiting for files to finish downloading before I start the next file downloads). However, any file after the first in that session shows an inaccurate progress indicator in the toolbar which includes progress of the already completed downloads.

For example, if I download two files completely, then start the download of two new files and both sit at 0%, the progress bar for the downloads actually shows 50% completed (2 files at 100%, 2 files at 0% -> Average of 4 files at 50%). I can't imagine this is intended behavior, for I imagine users would like to know how their current downloads are progressing only. This behavior is only fixed when I clear previous downloads, which resets the list to only active downloads, or when I restart the browser and start a new session.

Is there a setting where I can make the indicator report only active downloads?

Any insight is welcomed, thank you.

Randomly but now very frequent when I type into the search box for a known site Norton is blocking and saying " Protocol Error Unable to open the site" Recommends contacting Firefox" Norton message says We prevented your connection to orbitsearchonline.com because of dangerous webpage. But I have never tried to connect to this website. This started after the new update to Firefox about a week ago. Can you help please.

Each time I open Fire Fox, the window in NOT FULL ... I need to select the either F11 or the diagonal with arrow endpoints.

Surely there is a default settings that opens Fire Fox to full window allowing selection of website icons.
