A recent update apparently causes FF to add ".htm" when saving a text file that has no extension. It didn't used to do this. The file being downloaded has no extension. It is a hash text file used to verify my ownership of a domain during SSL cert renewal. I can save without an extension if I delete the extension and surround the filename with quotes. But that is a pain. Other browsers don't require this. How do I get my old FF behavior back?

Currently: FF 133.0.3 (64-bit), Win10

Years ago we used a program called A&M Deadlink to clean up dead bookmarks in FireFox. What is the latest tool for deleting old bookmarks, removing dead ones and cleaning up?

I just discovered today that when I click on a YouTube short and select open in new tab there are two sound streams playing about 3 seconds out of sync. This happened on my work machine today and on my home machine. When I switch to the Chrome browser this did not happen.

• I saved the link, "https://www.papeg.ai"
• Now, I cannot archive or delete the link. I also cannot edit the assigned tags.
• Basically, the link is frozen.
• I would very much like to remove the link from my saves.
• Any help or information would be appreciated.

I use linux mint older version, with firefox latest versions. A problem has been developing where after clicking a search link, a page pops up warning of possible phishing site. usually i clicked proceed and was taken to the website, but now am taken to a blank page or 404"cannot be found." Of course the page exists but i cannot get there. the url is a smartredirect.de... always. How do I get rid of this redirect app?

I have to use ctrl - many time to see everything on my screen. I promise, I didn't change anything, just updated. I'm not super literate about things like this and my IT husband has gone onto his next adventure. I'm hoping for a simple fix. Thanks.

i AM RECEIVING EMAILS ALL DAY LONG FROM SECUREDJOINTNETWORK TELLING MY SYSTEM IS INFECTED.. MY SECURITY PREVENTS THAT i WANT THESE NOTICES STOPPED, BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO IT.

Hello I have an application that shows forms where the input fields are inserted on table columns. When the column contains two fields sometimes the second field is showed not in the same line.

It must be said that the second field is added after the creation of the form.

Whit Chrome and Edge the form is showed correctly. At thislink the behavior can be seen. Thanks

Firefox has been running smoothly for the last 6 months. Recently I started receiving Firefox Crash Reporter dialog boxes when opening the app. The app never opens, but I receive three crash reporter dialog boxes.

What I have tried: Repair Reinstall Deleted every Mozilla folder in App cache and other device locations. Did another reinstall. App never loads and I receive a crash report. Updated Windows. Restarted laptop. Etc. Everything else on the device runs perfectly.

The website WSJ has large areas on front page, including the opinion listing, are simply white and not 'there' on the page to click on. I've deleted their cookies without effect, tried turning off all adblockers, shut mac down to reboot, nothing seems to have an effect. This is a recent glitch of only several days, prior performance was great. Thanks!

For the last several days, YouTube has been increasingly unusable. The most obvious hindrance is when playing/pausing a video, or attempting to adjust volume using the native control overlay on any video. It lags substantially, my cursor often disappearing entirely & attempting to pause or resume playback takes several seconds.

Using Firefox's task manager, YouTube is monopolizing roughly 2-3 GB of RAM when playback is paused, and CPU consumption will range from 0-95% - when playing a video/utilizing the tab, it tends to stay reliably closer to 50-100%. I have also run Firefox Profiler while resuming and pausing a video, which is here: Profiler Data. I am not particularly literate with this kind of data though, so I have no comment on its contents.

My extensions, by comparison, average roughly 500 MB and no more than 1% CPU utilization at any given time. I do use uBlock Origin, as well as Tab Session Manager, cookies.txt, Honey, Fakespot, Ruffle, and TWP.

I am sure this is far more of a YouTube problem than a Firefox problem, but are there solutions available? I have seen discussions on other platforms regarding the issue, but it seems like solutions are in short supply - telling YouTube to bias in favor of AV1/VP9 had no impact, and I'm hesitant to download more extensions to attempt to bandaid the issue.

Thank you :)

Hi There. Please can someone try to help me..

I know VERY little about computers. I have windows 8.1 and firefox. All works perfectly and always has.

I do NOT have any other "devices" I am disabled and cannot use a telephone so do not have one, well, only the old sort i use to get one time passcodes.

In the last few days, everytime i have had to make a payment to anywhere, i have had the onetime passcode "authentification" thingy pop up from Mastercard. Not a problem, works perfectly.

Enter virgin media..

When i try to pay their bill, the "authentification" thing does not load properly and hence it is impossible to proceed. Virgin media are worse than useless and insist it is something wrong with my computer. If that is the case, why does every other website on the entire internet work properly then, apart from theirs..

I have added a screen shot of their web page..

If i refresh it, a different screen comes up, i have added a screen shot of that too..

Anyone got any ideas??

Thank you.. john.

After a recent update to Firefox Nighty, the error "Procedure entry point IsWow64Process2 not found in DLL xul.dll" began to appear. I am using Windows 10 1507 LTSB.
