Firefox Community Forum

Just updated Firefox desktop (Win 10 with ESU) to 140.10.0ESR and now every site I try to access gives

Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to www.google.com. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

   The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
   Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

Sites were all working fine literally right before. No other changes at all. Have restarted a few times. Have disabled antivirus and adblocker extensions. Same problem including at google.com and even firefox. Note on the About Mozilla Firefox window says " Failed to check for updates". Also cannot even use the links there to go to What's new or Firefox help etc. (Gives Secure Connection Failed error). No proxy server. Have tried turning anti virus completely off. Just a combined modem/router -- basically vanilla.

Firefox is my primary browser so this is extremely disruptive. I am using Edge to access sites and post this.. though curiously enough I noticed it gave some error when checking for updates. Do not want to do anything there or will lose complete access.

Any suggestions .. or how to go back to a previous version, if necessary. Need a workable connection to file taxes next week so this is important. Thank you.

I can't see text using Dark Reader on some sites. How do I make adjustments? I can not see text on certain webpages. What command changes the color or texture of the fonts or texts

I have paid for a Veepn extension software for Firefox. If I go into Veepn it says I have an account and have paid for the software but the software has not been down loaded. How can I find where to down load it again? I have a Linux Mint 22.3 operating system.

Firefox doesn’t spell‑check in Copilot because Copilot uses a modern custom text editor that Firefox doesn’t recognize as a normal typing area. Since Firefox never turns its spell‑checker on in this kind of editor, nothing actually fails, so there’s no error code or message. The spell‑checker engine simply never activates. For this to work, Firefox would need to update its spell‑checker so it can handle newer web‑based editors instead of only traditional text boxes.

This is a request to update Firefox to fix a Geckodriver issue. Been using Selenium Basic inside Excel VBA which successfully Opens "firefox" but then fails to Get "https://jackpocket.com/lottery-results/arizona" ending instead with a '21' timeout error in the debugger. I have already carefully checked my Selenium Basic and Geckodriver installation, which are correct. So I think there is a code incompatibility between the two. I am trying to scrape the latest JavaScript rendered Next Jackpot numbers there into open Excel. The website URL is public information. The firefox version in use is 149.0.2 and the geckodriver.exe in use is 0.36.0 on a windows 11 laptop.

How do I import passwords from DuckDuckGo to Firefox

This is a reply to WXIE about a problem I wrote about yesterday. The document i am refering to can be found here. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux

I am referencing Step 4 for Debian Trixie and Newer.

I got over/thru those issues and when I ran apt update I found that the package was looking for Firefox was looking in a different place than where the previous steps place stuff. I am just comping back to Unix/Sun OS/Linux and 30 years working with a different OS. I hope this document will be updated after someone actually takes the steps. I will continue learning.
