Firefox 115.3.1esr is not compatible w/ Windows 10 3 toolbars take up 1/2 screen as it appears to size icons to desktop icons Zooming out makes fonts unreadable as FF zooms in and out unpredictably as I browse I restored W10 3x as it kept reinstalling until I found the right file to delete I will try update when I get news that toolbar sizes and auto-zoom are adjustable

I live in the mountains and the end of 3G with no infrastructure for LTE/5G means I have to drive a few hours to internet/cell phone signal 3x a week. So I need my computer and phone to work and not have these display problems!

Thank you.

With automatic updates, does Firefox actually notice when the computer's operating system no longer meets the system requirements? Will the update still be carried out, even though this could lead to problems with use, or will Firefox stop the updates automatically?

When I start FF I get a Windows popup requiring an admin username and pw to run Firefox Updater. I'm in a corporate environment and users don't have admin rights (which is standard for any company doing reasonable security). I checked the properties on firefox.exe and updater.exe and neither requires admin or is set to run in compatibility mode. Chrome and Edge update without an admin requirement.

I've deleted and reload Firefox several times in an attempt to resolve this issue as suggested in response to the various users with the same problem. I'm running Windows 11 Pro 22H2 I've tried it with and without my security programs running. Unless you've got something else to try, I'll have to switch to a different browser.

Firefox changes "%" to "_" when downloaded filenames contain "%" character

Pretty niche problem, but I couldn't find anyone else with the same kind of problem. Whenever I try to download a file with "%" on its filename, the "%" character gets changed to an underscore. Like say, if I try to download a file named "Skyrim 100% save file", it becomes "Skyrim 100_ save file". Not sure why this is even happening, but it only happens in Firefox. Not Chrome nor Edge.

i have been using Tor.browser as my default web browser on Macbook for months. Firefox is my 2nd, but two days ago, i was kicked out of Tor, cannot download/use it anymore and the reasons given are as follows:

"Tor.browser quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more detailed information." Ignore Report Reopen (options)

when i have deleted and tried to re-install tor browser, I get the notification that

"Tor Browser quit unexpectedly". No matter what I do

 (I have since done both, obviously & have tried many other things, including trying to Time Travel, which I am not 100% sure how to yet).  the Report states Firefox is responsible for blocking Tor.  how did this happen and suggestions on how to fix.  I have to access Tor to find some pertinent files etc. I have stored there.  thanks
