Firefox supportforum

I have been using Firefox for many year. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox recently.

I have a PC with Windows 10.

I typically have 5-6 browser windows opens (going back for year). 3 Ancestry.com search windows, one LDS Search window, and Yahoo e-mail window and sometimes fantasy sports window. I spend most of my online time doing genealogy research at ancestry.com.

Until a few months ago when I open a new Ancestry.com page in a tab, the page opened in the same tab. This is what I have been used to and expect. Within the last few month when I open a new ancestry.com page in a tab it opens in a new tab. Eventually I have 10-15 tabs opens which is don't like.

In "option" in the category "tabs" I have the 1st 2 boxes checked, the 2nd box being "Open links in tabs instead of new windows".

Is there something I can co to stop all these new tabs from opening when I am opening new ancestry.com pages in an ancestry.com tab?

When I am trying to type in a web address the Firefox browser tries to "guess" what website I want to visit by auto-filling. This is sometimes useful, but most of the time it guesses wrong or takes me to a webpage when I wanted to search. Currently I am trying to sign into one of my Wordpress and Firefox will NOT let me type /wp-login.php at the end of the URL it keeps redirecting me to another page on my website no matter what I do. Is there any way to just disable this "feature" because I swear I'm about to switch to Opera as this is driving me bonkers. (I will never switch to Chrome, don't worry.)

Hello. Firefox quickly takes up all the space on the SSD. After about two days of work, there is no disk space left. Closing the browser helps, but it's not comfortable. Windows 10 system.

I'm running the latest version of firefox mozilla with windows ten on my desktop. Adobe is sending messages to "Uninstall" flash player. How do i do this? And what replaces the function flash player performed.

When I bring up Firefox, the screen always says "This file cannot be found, etc." Is this normal? This is always the first page. What do I do, if anything? I have to hit new tab+ to get the home page.

Hi I have been a user of firefox for a number of years. recently the message shown in subject has started rearing its ugly head. this is happening with electronic supplier websites like Farnell and RS components. site which have as before not been a problem in the past.

Not sure if this is a bug or not

Firefox is crashing almost immediately after loading a page. Sometimes it crashes while loading the page, sometimes I can scroll down or click a link, and then it crashes. Biggest issues are on Reddit. I'm able to browse the Firefox support pages with minimal issues (although it has crashed once or twice).

Crash happens in Safe Mode. (I'm in safe mode right now and it just crashed) I did a FULL clean install about a week ago. (actually did it twice just to be sure)

Not sure what info you need in order to help, but here is some of the crash report from the latest one today.

I am using Firefox 84.0.2 (64-bit) on Ubuntu, and I have been getting this weird behavior that works for couple of minutes where when I press the left Ctrl button, Firefox cycle through tabs quickly. It's really annoying behavior and I do not know where I can switch it off.

Thanks in advance for your help!

At the top of the Firefox Internet browser are the 2 bars for the function keys and the bookmarks or folders. The background color is light gray as standard and often differs little from the background colors of the Internet pages called up. From my point of view, it would be good if you could choose the background color of these Firefox bars yourself.

Ive been having a problem for a few months now where whenever I restart firefox, if I had the password manager enabled it would disable itself. I can only assume that an outside program is causing this but I am unable to locate which one. I have uninstalled all password manager applications off of my computer, but am still having this issue. Is there any way I could find what program is causing this to happen?

I am getting error message when trying to access gamestop.com

I have tried it on other browsers and they don't work either. I've even tried it on my cell phone and the mobile version isn't loading either. My husband can get to the website from his phone but I can't on any of my devices. I never had this problem before and I get on the website all the time.

Every time i try to do a screen capture video in Canvas Studio while using MFF it ask me to download the screen recorder software.

I love MFF but I can only get Google Chrome to work.

Any ideas?

It is impossible to contact Firefox. I use Firefox as my main browser. When I logged into my laptop this morning, it said if Firefox was loading slow to click the link for an update, which I did. However, once the update was done, ALL of my saved logins were gone; AND, I cannot create any new saved logins or save any logins and passwords. The "help" pages are useless because nothing addresses this. Why were ALL my saved passwords deleted? How can this be fixed?

I am unable to access video and other content from within an e-mail from what I know are reputable sources (e.g. Stansberry Research and the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS)). When I click on the access key in the e-mail I either get a page saying I cannot access the desired content page or I get nothing. In either case my only option is to exit the attempt to access that specific content. Is this a problem with Firefox or with Verizon, my ISP? If the former, can you help resolve it?

Ms store no longer carries Firefox app, therefore when choosing FF as default app it doesn't appear in the listings. MS store only carries FF guide 5 of them, but not the app for the engine. Need to find a way of getting the app in the listing of engines so as to chose it.

This is maddening!

I have two accounts on my email in Firefox browser, want to add a third All I can get this the original gmail account, even when I click on "add account"

Whats going one?
