The Smart Window feature caused CPU usage and memory to max out. Disabled it as soon as I could find the setting to do so (Settings/AI Controls and BLOCK "Smart Window") and overload disappeared immediately. Everything is working fine now. What a disaster! Also did not find the interface terribly impressive or informative. Quite the opposite: It was almost deliberately vague and not at all intuitive.

Contrary to the claim that "Smart Window automatically groups related tabs, so everything has its place and what you need is easy to find" it just just described each of my open tabs (despite several related tabs being right next to each other) instead of supposedly grouping them by subject matter. That's basically useless -- I can see that for myself. Definitely not ready for Primetime.

Windows 10 Home, Firefox Version 155.0.1 (64-bit), Dell Inspiron 15 3000, installed RAM 8.00 GB, Storage 119 GB

Yes, I've been contemplating adding memory and/or buying a new laptop. But a new feature shouldn't totally freak out my system without some sort of appropriate warning about memory prerequisites, etc.

I just had to reinstall firefox today, and now my bookmarks sidebar is on the right of the browser window. I want it back on the left side where it belongs, but I can't find any instructions on how to do that. I really don't like this. Am I going to need to just switch browsers altogether, or can I get my old firefox setup back?

Is there a way to make the desktop version of Firefox enable the VPN when ever it starts. I find it annoying to have to turn it on every single time I start firefox or open a new tab. Thanks

Why wouldn't 'BOOKMARKS" be the first (1st!) option instead of stupid never used history? Who let their 3 year old make this change??? I could not find a way to remove history from this useless section...only BOOKMARKS should be easier to find since we all use it the most.

The Bookmarks is the MOST important AND MOST OFTEN USED feature and should be back on top...so annoying and unnecessary!

In the previous version, whenever I clicked sync, my browsing history was updated automatically. Why is this no longer working after the recent update?

I always use Firefox on my 2 devices (PC & laptop) and keep them synced. However, after the latest Firefox update, the sync feature stopped working. My Firefox history from the past two days/yesterday on my PC has not been synced or imported to my laptop

Здравствуйте! Перестал работать встроенный VPN в баузере. До этого все исправно работало. При попытке включить, просит войти в аккаунт. После входа в аккаунт открывается новая вкладка, пишет, что удалось войти, однако сам VPN не включается

I'm not sure how long this has been happening (maybe at least a month), but my browsing history isn't syncing properly between my desktop and phone. Previously, my desktop history was syncing to my phone, but not vice-versa. Bookmarks, passwords and tabs are syncing perfectly fine. I've tried enabling/disabling sync settings and signing out and in again and now my phone history is syncing to my desktop, but my desktop history has stopped syncing to my phone. While having the full browsing history on my desktop is preferable, it would be ideal for it to show up on both my desktop and phone.

My hardware is low end from 2016, Pentium 3825U, HD Graphics, and 4gigs of RAM. In the old times, the browser was fast, but this year it has slowed down so bad. I needed to switch to Thorium browser because Firefox became so heavy, using too much RAM and CPU. Please make the browser light, fast, and good for old systems again! (I want to use Firefox back)

The autocomplete dropdowns for form fields have recently changed appearance, and I strongly prefer the previous, simple design.

The new version has:

• Clock icons next to autocomplete/history entries
• Much more vertical padding, making the list unnecessarily large
• Rounded "pill-shaped" highlighting when hovering over an entry

The previous autocomplete list was much more compact and clean, without the clock icons, excessive padding or rounded hover backgrounds.

Is there currently a setting, `about:config` preference or other supported way to restore the old autocomplete list appearance?

Ideally, I would like to use the previous style:

• No clock icons
• Compact rows with the previous amount of padding
• No rounded/pill-shaped hover effect
• Otherwise retain the existing autocomplete functionality

If there is no setting to restore the old appearance, could an option be added to allow users to choose between the old and new autocomplete UI?

The last response was 14 August for numerous queries. All still outstanding in my support log. Am I looking at yet another failing brand that didn't adapt and whose market share crashed ? Just looking to get out now and find another browser. Astonishing. The bad moves and mismanagement... All there to read about from business analyses sites. Unbelievable.
