Firefox Support Forum

Ever since I migrated to Windows 11, I've been having problems. The Bookmarks pulldown menu is VERY widely spaced vertically compared to Windows 7, and I have so many bookmarks, I have to scroll down below the level of the taskbar at the bottom of the screen to reach them all. I was cleaning up my bookmarks, when I noticed that I moved just enough folders into a Miscellaneous folder at the bottom of the list, that it is just at the level of the taskbar and is hidden beneath it. However, the Bookmarks pulldown thinks it's within the resolution of my screen, so no button for scrolling down appears. Firefox needs to sense the size of the screen ABOVE the level of the taskbar, and place the scroll down button appropriately.

As I finished typing this, though, I went to put in a pic, and now the pulldown menu scroll buttons come up properly (albeit placing them over the level of the taskbar). There's some bug hidden in there that prevented it from working properly for 15 minutes, probably carried over from the Manage Bookmarks menu, because after I was moving folders into the Miscellaneous folder in Manage Bookmarks, it wouldn't allow me to expand the Miscellaneous folder to see the folders I moved were actually moved in there, and F5 (refresh) didn't work. That's probably why the scroll buttons didn't come up. The Manage Bookmarks needs a Refresh button at the very least.

Also, if there's any way to make the spacing between bookmarks configurable (like with a single-spaced option instead of the 1.x spacing currently being used), that would be great, and I could put my old bookmarks back where they belong. Always remember, instead of just changing things, keep the old setting and make a selectable option out of it. If it's a Microsoft issue, you need to figure out a workaround. When you're dealing with a 4K desktop, like I am, big changes are REALLY big. Thanks in advance.

My website keeps coming up as deceptive via Firefox. According to the hosting site (Wix) none of the other scanners are flagging it. We have tried everything and Wix says it could be a false positive. How can I get rid of the flag?

Thanks,

Hello! I have a problem with latest version of FireFox (118.0.1). I have a website running at https://localhost:7230. And Asp .Net Core backend running at http://localhost:5205/, the authorization is configured to use NTLM.

From the frontend I call: const response = await axios.get("http://localhost:5205/Users/GetUser", {

   params: null,
   withCredentials: true

});

and it works in Chrome and in previous FireFox 117.0.1, but doesn't work in FireFox 118.0.1.

I've checked the request-headers, they are the same except for the version in User-Agent. I guess this has something to do with the security settings. I looked at the patch notes but didn't see anything similar to my problem.

What was changed in the latest version and how can I fix this?

vpn plugin on one browser won't connect to internet so i have to stop using it to go anywhere. if i use the vpn for the whole system, using a firefox browser doesn't give me clean connections so i can't get to some sites. any suggestions? do they know about this? i noticed in my settings i am now using a custom setting for tracking and a reinstall of the plugin said it now had to have access to 'private windows' which i've never had to do before. do i need to switch to the chromium browsers? cheers in advance.

I have to load my bank's website several times before I can sign in.

I cannot edit a dashlane item.

I am not great at using a computer. Thinking I should just change browsers. Very unhappy that I can't reach out to the company to resolve my issues.

Keep getting this on a number of websites. Most of them I have used for years. Can't give the websites as there are too many but some are pitchsidemanager.com, hattrick.org, skysports.com and sportinglife.com . Just four of at least 14 give the Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site message. I use No Proxy and have my anti-virus turned off when I get the message. I have tried various other proxy settings but the same thing happens. The thing is that I have to keep refreshing the page until it does actually connect and that can take a good few minutes. Sometimes I have to restart the browser. Why is this happening since the last few updates?

I was doing a normal search on Google when as I clicked a link (on the differences between methods and methodologies) a page showing graphic porn popped up. I thought that would not be possible.

When I click on Firefox, my email comes up. Now the whole screen is covered up with an ad for Microsoft 365, and there is no way to delete it. I have tried re-booting and spent an hour trying to find solutions, which either don't apply to my problem or the solutions appear so complicated I can't follow them. I am 76, and just want to be able to do the most basic use of my computer.

There used to be a solution via userChrome.css:

/* separate stop and reload buttons */

1. reload-button, #stop-button {

 display: -moz-box !important;

}

The above workaround no longer provides separate stop and reload buttons on the browser in the latest version of firefox.

My old computer (Windows 10) finally died, beyond economic (or even possible) repair. The SSDs on it have been copied. How do I access and restore the bookmarks from the drive copy to my new PC (Windows 11).

When I try to connect to the Etsy website I get the following message "429 Too Many Requests". I have a VPN and I have to turn it off to be able to connect. I contacted Etsy and they said it was a browser issue. Besides turning the VPN off when I want to connect is there a fix?

Hello,

I'm trying to change some of my old passwords and I want to use the 'generate password' feature in Firefox. However, this is only available on sign up pages and NOT within the about:logins page within Firefox. Is there a way where I could generate passwords from within the about:logins page? Or at least anywhere in Firefox that doesn't involve finding a sign up page to generate a password?

Thanks in advance!

Hello...I appreciate your using Shortcuts & they are very important to me. I once had a problem of not having enough Shortcuts, but that problem has been solved.

My problem now is that the number of COLUMNS in my TopSitesRows often change, without my permission, from 6 Columns to 8. That leaves me with a lot of blank links as well as a lot of links I have visited only once & have no plans to visit again. Why can't I keep the number of COLUMNS the same like I can when I choose how many Rows when I choose TopSitesRows?

Thank you.
