I am a survivor of a brain injury and many things do not connect and I am not a tech person. I don't even understand the choices there are for me to ask a question! I cannot use any FAQ's or topics for help because I will not remember them when I need to use them. I need to know how to download to a USB drive; step by step directions/instructions do not help me. Is there a solution? I would like to purchase sewing machine embroidery designs online and then download them to a USB drive to insert into my sewing machine in another building. Microsoft has been no help with this. Any help would be very much appreciated and thank you.

How can I roll back or uninstall this latest update? I'm suddenly stuck with this big stupid empty sidebar and it's an eyesore and distracting and I hate it. Almost worth going back to Edge for it. I want it gone. Nobody wants bezels on their phones/devices, who the hell thought it was a good idea to take up more window on their web browser!?

A problem with an x.0 version? I've been using FF from "source code" for years on Debian Linux, but this is the first time such an update is failing after the most recent update to v133.0, as illustrated in attached image. How can I now update to the fix for this problem, please?

On the newest firefox update on Windows PC My PDF reading has been not displaying PDFs correctly on Firefox I tested on other PDF views and they work as normal (All images are normally white with black text PDFs) Sometimes it displays nothing at all (as seen in Image 1) Some pages will display correctly but the rest won't (as seen in Image 2) Some pages will display text but strangely (as seen in Image 3) It does flash white sometimes while scrolling but it still doesn't show text

Having updated to latest browser version I am continually getting this page

https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/133.0/whatsnew/?oldversion=132.0

It is not in my startup URL's I use the default.

I have cleared all browser cache and data with no effect.

After an update notification, i downloaded and updated my firefox to version 132.0.1. after the update, i continually get the notification to update. when i try to perform the update again,i get a message that reads "failed to check for updates". please help this notification is very annoying...

Hi, using Mac OS. Have tried the about:config set the auto update configs to false, still it keeps prompting every day or a few hours . There is also a timer setting. They dont seem to work, and these update notifications are very irritating, keep popping up every 8 hours or so.

Not sure the necessity for these incessive updates every day or hours, it uses a lot of system resources and hdd space, can Firefox put back the option when we can just tick 'update only when we want them' , in these, no background timer required they use system resources and there are many of us do not want them.

I'm root on a bunch of Linux machines and I'd like to write and add addons to setup some security-related policies. Writing the addons is not a problem, the problem is how I can make sure that they're installed for all users on the machine and cannot be disabled.

This is Ubuntu, which currently distributes Firefox as snap, but if necessary, I can probably use more classical Debian packages instead.

Hi guys,

I'm having some trouble with/after installing Firefox ESR.

I'm using the installer from here: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/128.5.1esr/win64/en-US/

The behavior that I am seeing is that after running the installer, although it seems that there is no error, the process goes through without issues, there is no executable for the app itself in the folder. The shortcut that is created on Desktop is also not linked to an executable that works.

Have you encountered this before? If so, do you have any ideas or tips on how I can manage it? Or, if you have any information that I am missing, please let me know.

Thanks.
