Firefox supportforum

Is there a reason no one has developed a simple Restart browser button, that will open the browser in the same, last session?

I know you can do it from "About:Profiles", but it would be convenient to have it on the toolbar. I'm sure a lot of people would appreciate it.

I'm using Windows 10 and have installed FF 92.0 as the default browser and recently installed MS Works 9.

When I click on a link within a document it does not open. The cursor does change to a hand & it does say "CTRL +click to follow link https….", but that doesn’t work. However it does turn on the Underline function in the word processor.

Clicking on links has worked for years with Windows 7 and MS Works 7. I don’t see any settings in Works 7 or 9 that control this.

Is there a FF setting that enables this?

After syncing because of lost passwords firefox deleted the bookmarks that were saved on the account. So I wonder if rstoring windows to a backup before I synced and reinstalled firefox the bookmarks data is restored as well in the backup which had firefox installed at the time with the bookmarks.

There was a clear indication that simply resetting Firefox would save passwords while hopefully improving performance. BUT ALL LOCKWISE PASSWORDS AND LOGONS HAVE APPARENTLY BEEN LOST. There are online instructions to copy/paste all data in the Old Firefox Data fldr to the "new profile fld" in 'about:profiles'. But the lost passwords still do not appear. Can anyone explain:

(1) is it possible to recover lost passwords from Old Firefox Data ? (2) why this happened despite false re-assurance that passwords would not be lost ?

Thanx. Boiling Madman

When is Firefox going to get the "NO SCRIPT" issue fixed. it prevents me from using Tor and we have a Tumbler, phone accessories , candles, and affiliate digital marketing and cannot use TOR browser. How much longer is this going to continue? or does anyone know a solution.

Hi all, I get this notice everytime I try to access ANY website, from Google to Amazon to CNN. I read this article, but does not help, as I can't press any tab, even the so called link, as in the pic attached. Please help, what can I do? Thanks

When I create a login for this website: https://empirelegal.reporterbase.com/contact

the system removes the "/contact" part, therefore, it does not go to the correct login page. Why does the system remove part of my website?

Instead of cloning bookmarks I decide to listen to firefox new technology and their asking for sync all the time, i sync i restart firefox and I don-t have my bookmarks anymore how do i recover them where is my site history where are my passwords why man, just make it cLEAR PUT IT IN CAPS DONT SAY U CANS AVE YOUR BOOKMARKS AND THEN SAY ACTUALLY U CANT

When i click on the lock icon in the address bar, nothing happens (I would expect to see the encryption and certificate, but no widget opens). When I right-click into the page and select "View Page Info", "Security", "View Certificate", no certificate exists. Only generic info is shown (Servers+Authorities). Also an error is reported in the system log, confirming that no certificate exists: JavaScript error: chrome://browser/content/browser-siteIdentity.js, line 642: TypeError: issuerCert is undefined

Questions:

• Why does Firefox show the lock icon while no certificate exists?

• How does Firefox establish a secure connection without having a certificate? (From my understanding a certificate is needed for TLS to work.)

I want to have a different browser settings for both browsing the web and controlling my media player.

I currently do this by using a different browser, firefox for web and opera for a local web based music player.

Ideally I would like a browser instance that only has only Close and Minimise buttons and retains size and position. I cannot seem to do this with any browser, they all want to give me tabs, menus, shortcuts, in short, to much clutter. I have managed to create a chromeless window but then that becomes the default for all browing windows.

I would like to achieve this with just Firefox.

My last try was this, with Chrome because Firefox wouldnt play at all.

--app="data:text/html,<script>window.location='http://moode.local/#notarget';window.resizeTo(750,600);window.moveBy(246, 50);</script>"

At the top of the about:preferences page, in a gray box, it says, "Your browser is being managed by your organization". Why? This is my home computer! How can I manage my own browser?

Every single time I load F/F (especially for the first time) it takes So long to start When its started and I click on (example) on a desktop shortcut it takes so long to load After about 5 mins of going slow (like warming up) it then starts to go normal speed. I have tried all suggestions on googles...still the same Start FF ...goes so slow, and gets faster as the minutes go by

I am up to date with my Firefox.

I find that sometimes (Easyjet booking forms for example) or recently a .pdf letter from a reputable sourcecan't be opened in Firefox, I need to use Edge for instance, and I don't like being brow beaten by Microsoft. What's to be done?
