Every time I see a box to enter a username or on some websites, any box that needs information filled in, a pop-up box appears that says "unlock your password manager." I was finally able to get to a website at moz-extension://b5ea3638-1832-4174-a490-4c5e77c0dbc6/html/index.html. The page says "Welcome My Financial Expert Password Manager securely stores, organizes, and autofills your logins, passwords, and more. Sign in to get started." Is this a legitimate mozilla extension? Is this a scam? How do I get rid of it (it's REALLY annoying!)? Thank you for your help and any insight.

Scrolling pages doesn't work as it used to do, changed in Fx 148

Very recently upgraded Firefox for Android from 147.0.4 to 148.0.1; I knew a bit about upcoming changes of menu system (but we also got fancy rounded corners ...).

But this is in part utter rubbish.

I know it has been possible to move the address field from top to bottom, and that that might work better with the new menu, but even if closer to fingers holding the phone it will anyhow be so low and in a corner that you can't reach it without risk dropping the mobile. And this, the new menu, isn't even my main issue. With the menu at the top, and the old menu system, you at least continued to work in the same area, once you had opened the menu.

The amount of "clicks" is pretty much the same, though; 2 for bookmarks (if you don't simply type part of the address), pretty much the same for add-ons (several use white-listing for scripts, such as NoScript, and often have to adjust these, so those settings are quite frequently used).

But, the main issue is something related to "gestures", swiping down a web page seems to invoke some add-on setting, in my case NoScript. That is, strict vertical swipes works most of the time as before (and "most of" is pretty much a disaster), if I swipe slightly diagonal (exaggerated in image), I get an icon for NoScript (scripts not enabled for page in example), and the further I swipe the bigger the icon. It goes away if I lift finger, but if I move into the icon, it can invoke NoScript's settings.

Is this the intended behaviour? And above all, scrolling down should work 100 % of the time.

Hello, I’m here to ask, how do I install extensions? I have the Firefox app downloaded but when I try to install BTRoblox, Roblox+, and etc. It shows me an “Download Firefox and get the extension”. Now, I think there’s an issue with the add-ons memory card. Because it would take me to a page of mozilla.org. And there the only thing it’s says is “Almost there! Now finish installing Firefox.” Even if I have the app downloaded, I’m on an iPad and I need multiple extensions to download. How do I fix this?

Firefox Multi-Account Containers icon not appearing in toolbar (cannot pin)

Description: I need help with the "Firefox Multi-Account Containers" extension.

The extension is installed and shows as "enabled" in my Add-ons Manager. However, the colorful container icon does NOT appear on my toolbar, so I cannot access or use the extension at all.

What I have already tried (none worked):

· Dragging the extension icon from the puzzle menu to the toolbar · Right-clicking on the extension icon (inside the puzzle menu) to see if there is a "Pin to Toolbar" option — but the option does NOT appear at all · Restarting Firefox multiple times · Restarting my computer · Creating a new profile in about:profiles and testing the extension there — still no icon · Disabling and re-enabling the extension

The extension is installed and enabled, but without the toolbar icon, I cannot create containers or separate my Gmail accounts. I really need this feature.

I have read that this might be a bug in recent Firefox versions. Is there a known fix? Do I need to completely uninstall Firefox and reinstall it? If so, could you please guide me on how to do a clean uninstall (removing all profile folders and registry entries) and then install the latest version?

My system is Windows (older version, if that matters).

Thank you very much for any help!

the last update disabled my group speed dial that had hundreds of saved research bookmarks. How do I go back to the previous version and restore my group speed dial bookmarks? The update should have warned that this extension would be disabled. This is a disaster!

Hi,

I am trying to make the jump away from Chrome to Firefox across all the platforms I use. I am a long term user of NordPass for password management and I love the Firefox/Nordpass extension in Windows 11. Firefox for Android, while not as slick as Edge or Chrome on this platform, I have been recently using it as my default browser. However, I could not find the Nordpass extension for Firfox Android.

A quick search took me here: Cannot find Nordpass to download as addon it was asked 3 years ago with "This add-on is currently unavailable in Firefox for Android but may be included in a future update."

Are there plans yet to implement a NordPass extension for the Android platform?

Thanks

I use Dashlane as an extension in android Firefox on my Acer Swift GO 16 laptop. I use my fingerprint to log into the laptop but in the security settings in the Firefox Dashlane extension I see the message: "Your browser does not support biometrics. To use this feature, install the Dashlane extension using Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge." I prefer to use Firefox.

Why is the option to use Biometrics (fingerprint in this case) not available?

Is anyone monitoring this community? Has it been abandoned?

I've been having an ongoing problem. I fixed it myself, because after posting here, I had zero responses and didn't know what to do, so I messed around and tried things on my own, which seemed to fix it. But apparently, it is not fixed, and I still don't know what to do. A Firefox expert I am not.

Very simply, I use two different computers, each 2000+ miles apart. Each time, and this has worked for well over 3 years now, the entire computer is copied to a backup. The backup data is restored, the current Firefox profile, as well as the Firefox program. To repeat, this has worked for well over 3 years now.

In order to get the extensions working, that requires disabling and then reenabling each one. (Otherwise, Firefox will not access the internet.)

This time, the extensions were disabled and enabled, and everything appeared to be working fine, but nope, not a single extension works. Even choosing a different extension that is normally disabled doesn't work.

I used to use Adaware, which is on the disabled list, so I disabled the non-working Ublock Origin and enabled Adaware, and it doesn't do anything. The ads roam freely all over the page. They pop up and dance around.

Not one extension will work. New, old, enabled, disabled, whatever. Nothing.

Does it bear repeating that I am not a Firefox expert? Without an answer from someone who knows what they're doing, I may as well switch to crap, inferior Edge with the zillions of dancing, pop-up ads. And I hate Edge.

I'm begging for an expert to help here.

I am trying to use group policy to block all extensions from being installed and only allow approved extensions.

I have followed the article:

https://firefox-admin-docs.mozilla.org/reference/policies/extensionsettings/

And here is my JSON config but it doesnt seem to be working and I can still install any extension.

{

 "*": { 

"blocked_install_message": "Please email the IT Helpdesk if you think an extension should be unblocked.", "installation_mode": "blocked" }, "com.abr.startapp@adminbyrequest.com": { "installation_mode": "force_installed", "install_url": "https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/admin-by-request/latest.xpi" } }

Please can anyone advise or confirm if this is a bug.

We are using firefox version 147.0.4 (64-bit)

Thanks
