I am using Firefox on Linux Ubuntu 26.04. I normally work with multiple tabs. Then I quit Firefox with all tabs open at the point of quitting. Some times on the rare occasion there can be a forced quit due to some issues. In my settings I have configured it not to open the previous tabs. In fact I want a blank page. But whenever I reopen Firefox, it opens those tabs and tries to reload which is annoying. Some of these pages take a long time to reload, and why would I want to look at tabs which I already have read. Or if it crashes due to some website on a tab why reopen something that crashed in the place ? Can you fix this. Thanks.

Secure Connection Failed

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

When I press F9 (browsing mode), the VPN automatically turns on. Why is this? This happens even if the VPN was previously disabled on that website!

It's also unclear why I enable the VPN on one website, but it automatically turns on on all the websites I visit. Why? I don't understand! I only need it on one website! I have to constantly disable it! Sometimes websites won't open because of the VPN. But I don't always remember that I have it enabled! Very inconvenient!

Similar names for Connected Services make "Send to Device" on Android unable to differentiate devices. The workaround is to "send to all devices". I can change my device names but I don't know how to change the Connected Service name. Here are some:

  • * * geoffrey’s Firefox on Geoffreys-q551ln-ASUS-Laptop
  • * * Gwheeler’s Firefox on GWHEELER-SM
  • * * Firefox on asus ASUS_AI2202
  • * * Geoffrey’s Firefox on Geoffreys-iMac
  • * * Firefox on samsung SM-G781V
  • * * gwheeler’s Firefox on GWHEELER-LT-SM
  • * * Firefox on SM-G960U1 Santa Maria, CA, United States

How can we improve this? Abbreviate Firefox to "Ff"? Use an in-line Firefox glyph? Also, I have a dualboot and run Lubuntu and Windows from the same device. I wonder how I can handle the device name to differentiate which OS I'm logged into.

Ich habe einen DEepl Pro Account. Mein Standardbrowser ist Firefox. Ich melde mich im Firefox-Browser für die Desktop-App an. Es erscheint der Hinweis: "Du hast dich erfolgreich angemeldet und wirst gleich zur App weitergeleitet." Die Weiterleitung scheint von Firefox blockiert zu werden (wozu eigentlich???). In den Einstellungen ist meine Präferenz für Deepl.com korrekt aktiviert. Ich möchte Firefox als Standardbrowser nicht aufgeben, doch das scheint die einzige bekannte Lösung zu sein, die sofort hilft. Ich nutze an einem PC mit Windows 11.

Meine Frage: Wo kommt dieser Bug her und wie muss ich Firefox genau einstellen, damit solche Blockaden nicht passieren?

(Ich beobachte solche dummen, unerwünschten Blockaden in Firefox leider häufig, nehme dann manchmal den Link und öffne ihn einfach in Chrome, was immer problemlos möglich ist. Ich möchte nicht die Funktionalität des Browsers mit endlos vielen "Sicherheitseinstellungen" erwürgen.)

hello! this may not be an emergency, but im still curious. will the sports widget be updated after the world cup? i think this would be cool if after the world cup people could choose a sports they want to follow (tennis, soccer, formula-1, etc.) and the widgets will show the updates of the following sport. what will be after the world cup ends?

After browsing the internet, i find new stuff on my screen. Then I have to spend time deleting all the shortcuts I don't want. I have the home screen set the way I want it and don't want it to arbitrarily add short cuts I don't want or need. I hate it when it messes up what I have set.

I use Firefox as my default program for opening PDFs. But if I try to open more than one at the same time it will always leave one out and instead open a "New Tab" that I don't need. Can't figure out why or how to fix it.

Example: If I check (windows 11) files A, B, C, D, and E. It will open A, B, D, & E and a "New Tab" and leave out C.

Any Solutions?
