This is new. What do I need to do to correct? Thank you.

I used to be able to highlight any non-English text, right click it, and choose "Translate Selection to English" to get a popup window with a translation. It would auto-detect the language I had highlighted and then give me the English translation.

As of a few days ago it only defaults to translating from English to Japanese. It no longer auto detects the language I've highlighted, and it no longer defaults to an English translation. I have to manually change the languages in the drop downs in the popup window each time.

Every help article I've found on google says I need to change language options in the settings, but they're all set to English. There's no mention of Japanese anywhere, yet Firefox insists that I want Japanese translations. My PC is also set to English.

Apparently sometimes it can still auto-detect the language since I just tried to make a screenshot and it was able to detect French -> Japanese, although many other times it thinks the Russian (or whatever) text I've highlighted is English.

Just letting you know after trying for a week to find a solution to this problem, I am leaving Firefox after 20+ years. I can not work from this platform any longer.

I often keep many tabs open for research, and Firefox memory usage grows significantly over time. Are there practical settings or habits that help manage memory without sacrificing usability?

I once signed up for a stock service, which included a daily popup. When I found I did not need/want it, I discontinued the service and deleted all of the related files. But the daily popup still remains and occurs. When I contacted the service they said it was something still attached to the browser but could not tell me how to find it or remove it. I have looked at everything I could think of but cannot find any reference to 'Weiss' (service name) or any name anywhere within Firefox. What am I missing? Many thanks Jim Bigger

In "manage profiles" I see where to delete the extra profile that was created and I don't want. Thanks to Cetaseus1. my question is does deleting a profile delete all the bookmarks? there is an info box that warns that bookmarks will be deleted including my 30,000+ bookmarks that were rolled over to this unwanted profile that just appeared. My intent is to have one remaining profile and all my bookmarks. I am hesitant to delete a profile and loose all those bookmarks. I won't delete until Mozilla assures me that I won't lose the bookmarks in the other profile. Thanks.

Since the last update I can no longer see download progress or click to see my downloads, why?

I now have to menu navigate to get to the setting I used to us and want,

I used Pocket for a while. It was excellent since it allowed taking a webpage and converting it to a document that could be copied and pasted to Microsoft word. This allowed further analysis and work on the contents of the page and was extremely useful.

Now that Pocket is gone is there another extension or a purchased extension that does the same thing on the present day Firefox.

I presently use Windows 7 and Windows 10.

Appreciate any suggestions.

How do I stop pup ups with several different warnings. At the top of ALL popups say Mozilla Firefox . I clicked DISMISS, then another one will pop up. 1.) Red shield with the word Warning! Click here to secure device! anti virus notification. 2.) Red and black shield say Virus found. 3.) Blue Windows symbol with a the yellow triangle and !, Click here to remove it 4.) red setting wheel, Trojan virus detected, Scan and delete your system.

Please help

I despise ai in every use and way with a passion. Now, it gets spammed everywhere on this browser, with no apparent way to disable and/or remove that filth. I don't want to see it, ever! Why is it even on by default??? I don't want "chatbots", "Ai assistants" or any of that shit at all.

I really don't need a profile in Firefox and if I delete the profiles listed, you will wipe out all my bookmarks/settings. Why do I need to see a yellow triangle on the Firefox app icon?
