I have to manually change the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx setting evertime I switch from my laptop to an external monitor. What can I do to avoid this every single time?

Hi. There is a new feature of Firefox that bothers me. It is when I drag tabs around the top, they try to group when I don't want them to. So I go to about:config and find the "browser.tabs.groups.enabled" key and set it to false. But when I restart Firefox, the change reverts. How do I fix this so the change stays?

I've already tried going to Menu->Help->More troubleshooting information->Profile Folder->Open folder, but there is no "user.js" file there. Do I have to do a Firefox reset to fix this? I hope not...

Note that I'm pretty sure that other settings that I change do not revert when I restart Firefox. Right now, it seems to be just this one about:config setting, unless the new version of Firefox reverts all manually changed about:config settings upon restart.

Thanx in advance for any help.

I'm not sure what has changed within Fierfox for it to IGNORE MY CHOICES for deleting all browsing or temporary cached info when I close the browser.

I didn't give you permission to store cookies on my local drive... So why aren't you clearing my temporary cached files when I EXIT the browser... It used to be "0" now the closest I get is "14k"... Why won't you delete that 14kb???

You toot yourself as a browser that safeguards peoples browsing history etc...

It would be better if you JUST CAME CLEAN and fessed up to your lies!!!

Every 30 seconds or so Firefox asks me to confirm location services. I keep telling it to always remember my decision, but it asks again anyways. I have uninstalled and re-installed, and I have accessed the settings in several different ways. How do I get it to stop?

Why can't I use "Restore Previous Session" any longer? It used to be a way to recover tabs when the program unexpectedly crashed, but now it's shown in gray and I can no longer click on it

After accidentally closing firefox I could not restore my last session after going to. history because the restotre tab was not there. Only recently closed tabs and recently closed windows and search history was there. I also had the box sent in setting to restore last session but it did not do that either. Am I missing something. Sorting through all the history would take quite a bit of time. I am on a macbook with sequoia ios.

Thanks

I was using DuckDuckGo and it failed a connection, now trying to switch to Firefox as my browser. I still get confused about browsers and search engines, but I want to be able to connect to a website that did not function with DuckDuckGo, all of a sudden and for no reason I could figure out. I have Microsoft 365 Windows 11 (I think) on 1 laptop and Windows 10 on another laptop; I am trying to use the newer laptop with Windows 11 but not totally switched over.

I am very, very tired of FF updating constantly and - if I don't download it myself - it updates without my permission and in the case this morning, lost all my gaming info. because I had my computer set to empty the cache when I log out of FF. I used to love FF, but this constant updating is getting old. I get that you guys have security issues to deal with, but this is just ridiculous. I'm seriously considering going to Edge which I had sworn I'd never do.

I have "When you open a link, image or media in a new tab, switch to it immediately" unchecked but it still switches to a new tab immediately if I middle-click on something

I have payment methods saved. On payment sites, I click on the CC# input box, and I am given the option to use one of my saved payments. I mouse-over payment choice, and it populates the input boxes with the correct information, however once I actually click the payment method, the payment method and all the input boxes are cleared of all contents. I am therefore forced to enter payment information each and every time I want to use it. The Fill Payment method isn't working.

I have reentered and verified the saved payment method several times.
