Where I live recently changed to a new timezone and while windows is set to the correct timezone, firefox did not get the memo and timestamps on every website are now an hour behind. I do use a vpn but turning it off or changing locations does not change the timestamps. I have tried restarting the browser and already confirmed privacy.resistFingerprinting is set to false.

How can I change the time in firefox or force firefox to sync to my windows time?

The place to designate the default save folder for bookmarks has disappeared. It used to be in settings. If it is no longer in settings is there somewhere in about:config to select default save folder for bookmarks?

There is an entry: browser.bookmarks.defaultLocation However it is some nonsensical coded entry: 9OZ32sF7u5y7 I do not know if it can be replaced with a folder name.

Hi

So I started up just now and when I started firefox it asked me what profile I wanted to use. I have only ever used one profile but I do believe there are some default ones as I seem to remember seeing multiple ones when I did some customizing awhile back.

Anyways I chose the one I always use and it loaded fine but I noticed in my task bar that the icon now shows a small profile icon.

I want the firefox icon there but I DO NOT want the profile icon on top of the icon as so many icons will pop up showing how many alerts you have and such and I DO NOT need a useless alert on the icon telling me which profile I am using.

I posted a screen shot of what my icon now looks like where as this morning before an apparent update it just showed the normal firefox icon.

So is there a way to remove that profile icon from the firefox icon?


Also I have noticed on my right click menu where I can select to open in a new tab and such it has also added grouping features to group tags. Is there a way to remove these unwanted options as I DO NOT want to group my tabs and it's annoying when I accidentally click that option instead of the new tab option. So for this is there a way to remove certain menu items that I do not need or want? I also added a screen shot for that menu question as well

Thanks!

On `about:keyboard` I rebound 'Full Screen' from F11 to Ctrl+Shift+F. This works for opening full screen, but it doesn't work for exiting full screen; I have to use F11 to exit.

I can't find any other setting for exiting full screen mode, so I assume this is simply an oversight by the devs, but if not, I'd appreciate help figuring out how to rebind exiting full screen as well.

Whenever I use Figma on Mac, in order to drag groups around, the keyboard shortcut for it is option + command + up/down arrows. In Firefox, this shortcut is overrided and instead switches between tabs. As it stands currently, there isn't any way to customize this behavior in about:keyboard.

Please update the setting to allow for customization in navigating between tabs!

In Firefox 158, swiping left or right with two fingers to go back/forward between pages now has a haptic feedback and sound using a trackpad. This is INCREDIBLY annoying and completely unnecessary, I spent 30 minutes looking up Macbook help because I thought my trackpad was broken. Please allow us to disable this, it is so annoying to have the trackpad making noise so frequently. This is not a "get used to a new feature" type of sound, this is a "I will stop using Firefox entirely because of how annoying it is" sound. There is no benefit to this noise, swiping left/right to navigate back/forward doesn't need additional haptic feedback because you can visually see the browser go back or forward. I can't believe this design choice got past QA, it becomes annoying and intrusive the first time you use it, let alone the 10-15 times a minute it happens when browsing normally.

How can I customize url and search fields to remove the search engine dropdown, and ideally make the URL fields ONLY work with URLs and the search field only work with my default search engine?

A recent update has completely broken my muscle memory: I'm used to typing Cmd-L to move to the URL field, then a single tab to move to the search field, where I immediately start typing.

Now, that single tab moves me to the search engine dropdown, which I don't even want to use, so every time I try to search I have to stop and back up and it's badly affecting my workflow.

How can I either change the tab order or just get rid of the dropdown completely? If I want to use a different search engine, I can always just go to their page instead of using the search bar.

Also, is the URL field now exactly the same as the search field? I really want them to behave differently - I don't want to touch search if all I'm doing is re-visiting a URL in my history. Is there a way to have a URL field that ONLY works with URLs and avoids search, and a separate search field that works with my default search engine?

Thanks for your help.
