Firefox Community Forum

Firefox just auto installed the latest version 145.0. After about 15-20 minutes of usage, Firefox stops responding and hangs. I ran the Task Manager (Windows 11) and found Firefox was consuming 96% of the available memory. I have to kill the task to regain control. I'm left with switching to a new browser and will probably never go back.

The Reply/Forward bar at the bottom of each email is something I would like to remove from my laptop screen. It consumes over 20% of my screen area. As I have vision issues, this is a waste of viewable space that would be better used showing the contents of each email.

Overall, Firefox displays too many fixed items like toolbars, etc. that reduce the usable working area meaning that I scroll (both side-to-side and up-to-down) so much to see the full contents of an email that I sometimes lose the context.

Is there a setting that will remove this bar & others from my screen? I know the menu selections for these functions and definitely do NOT need a full-size bar that I never use and wastes scarce screen space.

Thanks Tom Friedrich

Hello Firefox!

Recent update is so annoying, please, remove it. My eyes is bleeding from these rounded corners on the tab... pages... everywhere these rounded corners. Thanks in advance.

Best regards, Andrew

I believe I had all this synced in Firefox Settings before I made the upgrade. Like all you fellow former users of Windows 10, I had to upgrade to Windows 11; and did so two days ago. Now, I found that I do not have under History any of the former sites I not only visited but also had tabs open. What can I do, if anything, to recover them? Under the Add-ons Manager, if this helps, I already had the app Tab Session Manager, but don't know how to use it. Thanks to all in advance who may have made this same upgrade. Many out there are still on Windows 10.

One of my jobs requires me to download work related documents on my personal pc. I would like to assign the website of the platform we use to download those files in a specific folder so i could delete them easily afterwards. Are there any plans to add such a feature to the browser? Is there a way to do it already? (without having to use the "always ask" option) Thanks in advance. Cheers from Uruguay

I've noticed over time Mozilla has become less focused on consumer privacy and more focused corporate interests.

My questions are to you developers of Mozilla.

Would you have reached success in the past using this model?

I've noticed a corporate trend of brands being consumer friendly in the beginning of their history then over time snubbing the customers in favor of getting paid to sell data to corporate interests, data brokers and government entities.

Should we trust you?

I've been using Firefox for almost 20 years and anyone can agree that this browser isn't getting better over time.

Can you provide a list of all the third parties you deal with selling our data?

I have a nagging feeling this isn't the browser it used to be and some of us will need to change to a less corporate focused browser to protect our data, since it seems you aren't interested in that model anymore.

I recently opened Firefox to see a new flagged warning under my toolbar that says "The security sandbox is disabled. Your configuration is unsupported and less secure."

I have gone into about:config and adjusted every security.sandbox element to see if that would change anything; it did not.

I am running on Windows 11 Home so I cannot install or properly run Windows Sandbox.

I would either like a solution to enable the sandbox once again, or just remove the notification from the toolbar.

Chase website now requires Mozilla Firefox update 128 or higher to access accounts. My version says my version (115.30) is latest update. Do I need to find a different browser or is there a solution? I am using Windows 7 Pro desktop. Thank you.

Hello all -

I ran into an error earlier in the week which forced me to reset the data of my firefox account. Today, I was trying to look at the Inspect (Q) option on a website, but when I clicked on it, the box was empty and did not have the CSS code there.

Does anyone else have this issue? And is there anything I can do to fix it?

If I go fullscreen in any mediaplayer (such as YouTube, Crunchyroll, Prime Video or Jellyfin) I get a bar at the top and a bar in the left. You can see either the wallpaper or another programm, its like shifted to the right and bottom. I know its a problem with tunred off Hardwareacceleration. If I turn it back on the problem never occurs. I tried with troubleshoot mode enabled but there I couldnt recreate it because the problem does not occur, even after I turn troubleshoot mode off. The problem only occurs again after a complete restart of the computer.

I know there are other posts with the same problem but there was never a solution.

I'm using a Windows 11 laptop with a 14" laptop with a 1920 x 1200 resolution. I'm looking for suggestions and tips about the best layout to maximise the display of content in Firefox with the minimum amount of scrolling.

Thank you.

I would like to know how I can choose the aster PC from which firefox snchronizes on other PCs and what to do, that it does not change direction when i am in vacation with the non-master PC
