Hello, After installing Firefox 137, Windows shortcuts stopped working within Firefox: for example I am on Google Mail writing a new email. If I want to attach a file to my email, I click on the classic paper clip, it opens a windows dialog box to browse my files and folders. Up to now, if I did double-click on a shortcut (a .lnk file) it would follow the shortcut (like if it was a folder shortcut it would open the corresponding folder) for me to choose a file ... As of 137 it attaches the shortcut, and tries to attach the whole content of the folder ! I tried the same operation on Chrome, it works ok. I tried the same operation on a different service on Firefox (Mattermost) I have the same problem, so my guess is that the problem is with Firefox 137. (this has been working properly for the last 10 years at least). And I made the test on MacOS, no problem, it's really with Firefox 137 on Windows. Anybody else seeing this ?

outputs "4/2/2025, 7:59:20 PM" in normal firefox and "2/4/2025, 7:59:20 PM" in Firefox Developer. Test on MacOS and Ubuntu.

My Bookmarks Toolbar is set to "Always Show." With the last update, all of them disappeared.

All of my Bookmarks disappeared, but the bookmarks in the toolbar are the most heartbreaking.

Firefox is only offering to import them from Chrome. I have been using Firefox for years, and this hurts a lot.

I'm fed up with updates. Whomever decided to move opening multiple tabs to the left or right had of the desktop has their head up their ass. It takes up significantly more desktop space now and is nowhere as easy to use as when they were on they tiop of the desktop. Plainly - IT SUCK - no improvement on my 27: iMac

Hello, recently I have done in-place upgrade of windows 10 to 11. From that time loading of some pages in Firefox was very slow. For example www.google.com was loaded for about 90seconds. But next loading of the same page before Firefox restart was fast. So I had suspicion to Dns. But when I disabled DoH (Dns over HTTPs) nothing changed. What helped was to set the problematic page to DoH exceptions. So seems, that disabling of DoH is not really disabling, minimally on Windows 11. For sure during troubleshooting I tried it with disabled extensions, new profile, ... But nothing worked. Is there any other way how to disable DoH completely in Firefox? Setting network.trr.mode checked and was set to 5, which should be disabling.

Why is this font so small, I have tried everything so much so that I have the about.config on my bookmark tool bar, I have tried the extensions that do not work, zoom makes everything too big, increase the font on my desk top. When I go into the about.config ....To increase the font size in the Firefox address bar, you can modify the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx setting in about:config or edit the userChrome.css file to apply custom CSS rules none of this works. as you can se from the picture the font is SUPER TINY!!! I have changed the setting on my computer for the desktop also and nothing.

by jump to specific history, I mean something like search in library > bookmark and right-click on specific link then "show in folder"

it would be very helpful if something equivalent of "show in folder" exists in the context of history search, I often search specific site and wondering what else sites I opened around that time (relative to specific site I found on search results)

if there's any workaround or alternatives, please leave a comment! ^^

A folder on the bookmarks menu that stroes individual bookmarks, fills half the screen of a standard 1080p screen with totally empty white space.

The padding in between each and every single bookmark, in any place that can store bookmarks, will be filled by at least 3 or 4 mm of empty white space. Between every single bookmark.

This is a huge amount of completely pointless scrolling.

Do you have an RSI? No?

Good for you. I, sadly do.

Has there been a fix for this cos the chrome folder .css "fix" is not working for me.

If i cant solve this i am going to change browsers. I dont care. I love Firefox and used it since the netscape days in the 90's, but am not going in for another surgery since you people insist of giving people more RSI's.

I have a website with a lot of custom schema XML content that Firefox tries to interpret as HTML and display as "text only". However, I would like to see the XML markup instead. Up until a few weeks ago, I was able to right click and "View Page Source". However, now when I right click, I get an error message:

Content Encoding Error The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.

Nothing changed on my server, and the original behaviour (right click > view page source) still works in Chrome.

What do I have to change in my settings to permit Firefox display these XML documents for me like it used to?

Information Your browser is being managed by your organization. how do i stop this why am i getting this i went to regedit and it stopped it an it continues to come back Information Your browser is being managed by your organization.

For years I have been able to watch a foreign TV website, despite having only a DSL connection (I allow only the scripts essential to make it work). Since I did the last update, to 137.0, I cannot watch either the live stream ("General source error") or old programs ("There is something wrong with your internet connection"). This is absolutely consistent; I've lost count of the times I've tried.

I never had problems like this before. At worst, if Windows was running a background process I might have to stop it to keep from having pauses in the program. All I can think of is that you did something in the new version of Firefox that has made video impossible on DSL.
