Subject: "Refresh" How can I turn off the 'refresh function' when I am signed onto a session? I understand 'refresh' should work when I log off and later log back on. BUT, I find it VERY ANNOYING when 'refresh' (going back up to the 'very latest whatever') happens when I have merely stopped for a minute or so to completely read an article, or watch a short video. When that happens I cannot get 'back' to where I was because of all the 'new' stuff, even after 10 or more minutes of scrolling down as fast as I can.

 When the 'refresh' happens and I am no longer able to 'find my place', I log out and turn the computer off for several hours up to several days (which is probably better for me anyway).  Your sandbox, your rules, but there are other sandboxes I can play in, and will.

Hello,

I am facing an "Aw, Snap!" error when I visit this website: [https://littlegames.io/|https://littlegames.io/] in Firefox. However, the same website works fine in Chrome. Other websites also open normally in Firefox without any issues.

Can someone please help me fix this problem?

Thanks.

When I brought Firefox up about a week ago, it presented me with a survey, results of which were sent to Firefox developers. They asked several multiple choice questions about features, but they didn't ask a very important question: Would you use Firefox more if it used less system memory? I currently use Google Chrome for about 2/3 of my web browsing because Firefox uses up too much system memory. I would prefer to use Firefox most of the time, but can't, since it bogs down when memory usage gets too high.

The survey should have included a text input box so users could enter any comments for the developers, and the survey did NOT do that.

So, after completing the survey, I was disappointed that I couldn't comment on the most important issue I have with Firefox. I would like the Firefox dev team to try get Firefox's use of system memory down. A short while ago, I opened 4 websites in Google Chrome, then opened the exact same 4 websites in Firefox. The attached shows the memory usage of each browser.

Starting with Firefox 141, I noticed the profile folder is locked down by Mozilla by way of folder permissions, to the extent that I (as administrator) cannot even take ownership of the folder. Even after I completely uninstalled Firefox and restarted my computer I can't take ownership of the folder, nor can I delete it - access is simply denied. I have to literally boot up with a Linux Live distro to be able to delete it. This is invasive and NOT OK!!

I work with multiple profiles that require backups and be copied. I also have a 'master profile' which is set up to co contain all my settings and addons - when I require a new profile I simply copy it over and voila. Not even this is possible anymore, as Mozilla has locked down the entire folder tree, I can no longer copy a new profile into C:\Users\*USER*\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles.

I also cannot copy existing profiles (and therefore also not able to backup) out of C:\Users\*USER*\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles - access denied. This is uncalled for by Mozilla. I have complete removed Firefox from my computer, including registry entries, and even after that I'm still denied access and cannot even delete C:\Users\*USER*\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla.

The only solution to to any of the above issues is to either reboot into Windows Safe Mode or bootable media of another OS. But this is totally impractical - Mozilla cannot expect of me to stop all my work and restart my PC every time I need to perform any of the above mentioned issues.

This is highly invasive by Mozzilla - to not even be able to delete a profile folder without any trace of Mozilla on my computer???? Come on, FIX THIS !!!

Will Mozilla please provide the solution?

I want to uninstall this site because you cannot or will not connect to 'chaturbate' but have had to go through this useless and time wasting system to uninstall, wud surely be better to connect me to my wanted website in the first place

I have had in the past and again recently had the Firefox Icon disappear from my desktop...in the past I've had to uninstall/reinstall to get it back? Is there anyway to retrieve the Icon without going through a uninstall/reinstall?

i have a big problem with settings of privacy and security. the problem is i cant edit this option ( Allow Firefox to automatically trust third-party root certificates you install ) and its greyed out . i made everything ( refresh - troubleshoot - uninstall ) and with the first click on singing my account on Firefox and add my restore my add-ons after setting up windows this option become unavailable (greyed out) and cant edit it. i need a solution without going to set up a new windows because its so tiring to set up a new windows to edit this option. please give me a solution its emergency. thanks a lot.

I use Firefox as my default browser on two computers running Windows 11 & Linux operating systems.

From a few days ago I can no longer scroll down the entries in LastPass using the mouse on my HP Laptop (Windows 11). I thought it might be a LastPass issue so I tried opening LastPass in the Microsoft Edge browser and the RHS up\down scrolling is working just fine.

Is there some setting in Firefox (or between Firefox and LastPass) which is suddenly preventing me from scrolling up and down the entries). I can still scroll down by using the touch screen, but not using the mouse.

The other thing that drives me crazy is that I cannot permanently change all of the enties in LastPass into a simple list, rather than boxes. Is this anything to do with Firefox or is this a LastPass issue.

When I last updated Firefox, about 2-3 weeks ago, all of my bookmarks, and the bookmark tool bar, disappeared.

I've tried to recover them using the automated forum, but nothing works.

How do I both get the bookmarks tool bar to always be visible and, at least as important recover all of my bookmarks - the ones that were visible on the toolbar, and all the others?

Thanks - I hope.

It isnt in extentions, isnt recognised as a usable search engine. I'm already using the default version of the search engine, but getting tired of turning off the ai feature every time

There is some worst problem with Firefox for android's management of storage data. When I click on translate a page, it download some pack of the source/target languages and keeps it in app's data permanently. The language also does not show as been downloaded in the translate setting section. Unwantedly firefox consumes persistent storage only for just after we randomly to translate a page from a random language and firefox android download unwanted languge's pack and event does not show in downloaded languages. No way to clean the storage apark from "clear data" which we do not want to do ! Same happens when you have an incognito session with multiple tabs open, and the system closes Firefox when you open some other apps. Firefox loses track of the "potentially to be deleted" data. Firefox data increased forever after such a Hard closed session.(in low RAM device 3-4GB). No other option except to Clear Firefox's data!
