Windows 11 Pro, Version 10.0.22631 Build 22631 Firefox, 126.0b8 (64-Bit)

Hey,

I use a personal firewall. Every unknown program that attempts to access the network triggers a popup message requesting permission.

Right after the installation, Firefox.exe initiated a message, stating the following path: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe". I granted access.

However, weeks after the installation, the updater.exe asked for permission, stating a very unusual path of itself. The path is "\device\harddiskvolume3\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Maintenance Service\update\updater.exe".

This seems unusual to me, since apps normally use 'C:\' to refer to harddiskdrive0. It is also suspect, since there are only two drives connected and the Disk Management tool (as an admin) indicates, that there are harddiskdrive0 and harddiskdrive1. There are no hard disk drives 2 or 3.

I also wondering about the fact, that the about firefox screen states, that firefox is up to date - even I did not granted access for the updater.exe in the past. There has never been a firwall rule to grant access for the updater.exe - how did it update in the past?

Does anybody have an idea what is happening?

Best regards, André

Why does Firefox put www in front of the domain name?

When I type my website in the bar, firefox puts www in front of it, which causes the warning page: firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to www.karinchappell.com. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

If I remove the www by backspacing it, the page loads correctly.

I've checked the website: "SSL is enabled on your site, and an SSL certificate was detected on your site."

When I've asked around the techies I know, I've been told this is an antiquated way of dealing with it. Please advise.

Sling tv streaming warns that other browsers except Chrome, Edge, or Safari may be problematic when using their service. I updated Firefox and then attempted to access Sling, video was fine but no audio or at best audio was intermittent. Both Chrome and Safari are working fine, but I would much rather use Firefox for all my browsing ! Are there any plans to create a fix for this?

Used to be very practical with add-ons in the toolbar (cf 1st screen), but with the update they are not here anymore (cf 2nd screen). I don't want to click on the extension button for those addons I'm always using, I want to revert to having the buttons in my toolbar !!!!!!!!


PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT TO GO TO CUSTOMIZE TOOLBAR WITHOUT TESTING IT YOUSELF AND INCLUDING A SCREENSHOT !! This does not work, there are no buttons to drag and drop for the addons.

I used Speedtest by Ookla. When the broad band was installed, the technician did this without a problem. Today when I tried I was taken to an installation page. After I used the SpeedTest, then my main page was gone and instead I have a bar of Firefox selected options. I've tried to find how this is done so I can set it back but I can't find it. Please help.

Several times now when I access my banking site and export data, the exported data is not correct. Sometimes columns are missing or columns are in the wrong order. One time even the display showed missing columns. Another example is when I look up a stock quote, sometimes the numbers from previous days are displayed. Troubleshooting with the site manager we found if I cleared cache and cookies, the problem went away. Everything works for several days, then the problem reappears.

Clearing the cookies is simple enough but then I have to be re-verified on all of the sites that require such and that becomes a real pain. (ie. We are sending you a text, please enter the number to continue)

Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge both work fine with this site. Please don't make me switch but I will if this continues.

Hi guys! Currently I'm working on a project which renders video with webGL. The result works on all browsers as expected but not with Firefox vers 109 for Apple Silicon devices (m1, m2) - the video animation is just lagging,it takes cpu usage up to 160% and the video itself is stretched. Comparing to that Chrome takes 22%, Safari 14% of cpu usage. It's just regarding to this devices, it works fine on Microsoft so I think it's a browser bug regarding to osx verision. Could someone pls help me with that or have a look over?
