Hello, I noticed that my system disk free space was declining. After some checks I found that underr

C:\Users\François\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\wjZDDDl0.Profil 1\storage\to-be-removed

were a lot of directory with GBo of data. In may I deleted all these subdirectories and went from 23 to 33 Go free space Yesterday same thing I went from 25 to 41 Go free space.

Why are these files keeping accumulating and are not removed automatically as per name ? Thanks. I'm using Windows 11 Famille Version 25H2 Installé le 25/11/2024 Build du système d’exploitation 26200.8737 Pack de fonctionnalités Pack d’expérience de fonctionnalités Windows 1000.26100.334.0

I'm using Firefox from the official Ubuntu repository (packages.mozilla.org). I have used the (very cool) "translate page" feature successfully, but for some reason it doesn't seem to work on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/NL:Basisregistratie_Adressen_en_Gebouwen which I'd like translated to English. Even though Firefox thinks the page was translated, only one of the headings seems to be in English.

I would like to understand how to troubleshoot this and help you improve this great feature. Thank you in advance.

Zdravím! Prakticky každé tri dni sú akési aktualizácie. Predtým bolo v nastaveniach všetko priehľadné, teraz ste to "poskrývali", že to musím hľadať, kde čo je! Nenávidím to !!

Chcem sa vrátiť o niekoľko verzií späť, kde to bolo jednoduché, priehľadné, skrátka fajn! Každou aktualizáciou to len komplikujete a komplikujete, viac a viac!

A potom "vyskakovacie okná". Tie vaše! Príklad: Pozerám youtube na malý screen. Ak si dám video na celý monitor, okamžite, asi na 5 sec. vyskočí okno - "youtube is now full screen". Robí to vždy, všade, pri všetkých videách, nielen na youtube, ak zmením formát na "full screen". Toto ma extrémne vytáča! Viete, ja som sprostý primitív, ja, ak si dám video na "full screen", ja to ešte potrebujem oznámiť vyskakovacím oknom! Niečo nenormálne! Napíšte mi, kde sa to dá v nastaveniach zmeniť! Alebo to zmeňte sami, keď tu každé tri dni robíte neustále aktualizácie! Ďakujem a dúfam, že sa z Vašej strany dočkám odpovede.

S pozdravom,

Hello! Practically every three days there are some kind of updates. Before everything was transparent in the settings, now you "hid" it, that I have to look for it, where it is! I hate it!!

I want to go back a few versions, where it was simple, transparent, in short, great! With each update you just complicate and complicate it, more and more!

And then "pop-ups". Yours! Example: I'm watching youtube on a small screen. If I put a video on the whole monitor, immediately, for about 5 seconds. a window pops up - "youtube is now full screen". It does it always, everywhere, with all videos, not only on youtube, if I change the format to "full screen". This is extremely annoying to me! You know, I'm a stupid primitive, if I put a video on "full screen", I still need to notify it with a pop-up window! Something abnormal! Write to me where it can be changed in the settings! Or change it yourself, when you make constant updates here every three days! Thank you and I hope to hear from you.

Best regards,

Since the last two updates, Not including the current update as I have not downloaded it because I am sick of them, I cannot see any images on Sky news articles. There is just a white box where the images should be.

Also the back/forward buttons are useless. I do a search on Bing and click through the pages then when I , say get to page six and retype for another article the previous search doesn't exist when I use the back button. I have to remember and retype the name of the article I am looking for.
