"Connection Settings" disappears in Firefox v152.0b[6?]. Do we now use about:config to manually set a proxy?

I'm a beta update channel user, so this may not reflect what 'normal' users are seeing. I use Firefox in Linux, debian v13, so normal people that are using Windows or MacOS also might not see the changes I'm asking about? -- I have no way of knowing.

Anyway: in FF v152.0b6, the "Connection Settings" area seems to have disappeared entirely from the settings menu. I used this area of the settings frequently.

The ability to set proxy still exists in the about:config settings area. In the future, will about:config be the standard place to go for people that want to manually set (or toggle) an http/https proxy?

Thanks for reading, and thanks to all the Volunteers who make this place and Mozilla software function. I use your stuff all day, every day, and my life is better because of it.

With Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint 150.0 after logging into Chase Bank , when trying to pay off my credit card, I get a message: "It looks like this part of our site is not working right now". However the site works perfectly with Chrome, thus the problem must be with Firefox. I have cleared the Chase cookies and still getting the same result.

When tab session manager (TSM) saves multiple windows, each with dozens of tabs, into a single imaging session file, TSM also creates and displays a list of those saved sessions. TSM now does not open any of multiple saved windows when any one of the backup listings is selected.. At one time, it did. Instead, TSM opens a single window and its tabs, on request, but opens it into the current window, only, When a new window is msnually created into which to drop the tabs, TSM simply refuses the new window, and replaces verything with a new window for its own tab collection..

I was not given a VPN setup on restarting Firefox, and have no VPN icon in my toolbar. I have tried using customise toolbar, but there is no VPN icon to add back. Version 150.0, automatically opened to "What's New in Firefox 150" on starting Firefox, just without a new VPN icon. Thanks

How do I turn off the Alt Text warning on images with no text?

Please appreciate that alternative text is not always applicable.

I use the Add Image button to tick off things on a list (add image of a tick) - for my own personal use, not suitable for webviewing. Halfway through the task these Alt Text warnings just obliterate my view of the document; my attempts to not have to print it, or not have to use Adobe, are thwarted.

I'm looking at a page of grey blocks that contain a triangle which in turn contains an exclamation mark, and I can no longer see the actual document behind them.

Sorry if I've posted in the wrong place.

Sorry if I've posted in the wrong place. I posted this under Thunderbird in error, whatever that is, and I reposted it under Firefox, but that;s gone. So if you find a duplicate question, I'm sorry.

Hello, Im using localized (Lithuanian) version of Firefox. Several updates back, Firefox started including russian and Polish in preferred languages by default. Personally i know how to remove those for myself. However, since im managing around 300 computers in a school. This starts to become an issue. In Lithuania we only have one official language. And when pages in a school start opening in foreign (russian) language this starts to be quite annoying. I would love to keep using Firefox but i need help.

I don't know how or why but apparently Mozilla VPN has been installed on my computer. I don't think I ever requested it as I have Express VPN and I never subscribed to it. I've attached a screenshot and I don't know what else this could mean (note: I am technologically challenged). I didn't have my Express VPN turned on at the time I took this picture.

So I clicked into a video, and it did not play. Further troubleshooting showed it was a video hosted by vimeo, and youtube videos still worked. I tried on multiple vimeo hosted videos, on multiple unconnected websites (dropout, patreon, and directly on the vimeo website).

I tried the following fixes:

  • I opened it in a private window and nothing played.
  • I booted into safe mode, still nothing.
  • I turned off all of my add-ons, nope.
  • I cleared my cache and restarted, nothing.
  • I cleared my browsing data and restarted, also nothing.
  • I checked for updates: up to date.
  • I created a test profile, and it works there.
  • I opened Chrome and it worked there too.

The test profile/chrome thing suggests it's an add-on or something but the fact that I turned them all off and this still happened has me baffled.

Update: I fixed it. Was user error.

Hello,

It was good to see on today's (2nd June '26) flyer that I can get the free Firefox VPN, excellent for my laptop. I took my previous one off because it was clogging everything up.

I am from the UK and living in Spain. I have recently bought a Firestick but cannot get any UK programmes due to regional restrictions, so I need a VPN to get round those.

Proton VPN offer a free service that I can put on to the Firestick. Their site gives you the instructions. My question therefore is, can I put the Firefox VPN onto the Firestick and if so, how? It makes sense to have all your VPNs in one place. Kind regards Mike
