Firefox Community Forum

In the "General" section of my Firefox Settings, it states that "Your browser is being managed by your organization."

When I click on that, it shows the word "Certificates" under Policy Name, and "ImportEnterpriseRoots" under Policy Value.

Is this something that Firefox installed, or is it something a third-party (like my former company) installed on my computer.

Also, would this possibly slow down my computer?

Thanks for your feedback.

When attempting to drag/Insert picture into email text, the message "The following files couldn't be attached: filename.jpg. Please try again later." appears. I have not been able to find a solution. The dragged/Inserted picture always ends up outside the email text box and cannot be moved into it. What is a solution?

Is this something new or do I need to reload Firefox? Firefox 133.03 64-bit is up to date on Windows 10.

It worked last Christmas!!! It is not important now that the holiday is over but would like to fix it.

I have McAfee+ Ultimate Family Security package and was attempting to set up its Password Manager. As it worked out their tech rep indicated that Firefox (which is my default by choice) does not support that particular extension for some reason. Is Firefox/McAfee collaborating to resolve this issue?

does Firefox no longer support sites like The Guardian, like the Atlantic, other news outlets. it never lets me sign in but returns to the home page after signing in with email and password. What do I do?

You have invited me to download a new version of Firefox.

So What do I do with my existing Firefox?

If I don't like it, can I go back?

Please let me know.

Windows 10 is on my laptop but firefox is showing windows 8. i need to have firefox version 124 or above for an online form-filling exercise

I'm trying to access my https://mypay.dfas.mil account, but, though previously all was well, now an error message tells me that you "can't connect to the server".

I have a network connection, but apparently Firefox may no longer have "permission to access to the web". I'm sure this is wrong because I can still access pretty much everything in the normal way, including other government sites, such as Social Security, using the Login.gov portal, though mypay is not listed as 'connected.'

What happened, and how do I fix it? Also, the error message says that I should "Check that Firefox has permission". How do I do that?

When I try to sign into eBay, a multi-photo comes up asking me to identify like objects in order to be allowed to enter the program. I believe Firefox is causing this problem. How can I fix the problem?

I have a bunch of profiles set up via "about:profiles". Some of these are associated with different Mozilla accounts, some are not. Today, I wanted to rearrange those profiles to put some older profiles that I do not use as often lower on the page than more recent profiles. I thought I remembered there being an overview text file that included a number for each profile, the folder that profile's information was stored in, etc. When I went looking for that file, I could not find it, so I went looking for help articles and discovered that there is a new profile management tool.

When I tried using the new profile manager via "about:profilemanager", none of my current profiles are visible, so I cannot use that tool to reorder my profiles.

I would be grateful if you could point me to an article explaining how to reorder the profiles in "about:profiles". If that is not possible, I would appreciate a help article explaining the rationale for making these two uses of the word "profile" distinct, the ways in which these profiles are different from each other, and how to transfer settings from the older version to the newer version. I have everything set up just the way I like it within my current profiles and really do not want to have to recreate them from scratch...

Lately, whenever I try to open a PDF from a website open in Firefox, the tab crashes and the PDF does not open. An error stating that the Windows file-dialog has crashed is displayed at the top of the tab. I tried to attach a screenshot of the error but that action only generates another error.

This condition does not occur when I try to open the same PDF from the same website open in either Chrome or Edge, the PDF opens properly which leads me to believe the problem is in Firefox and not my Adobe installation.

Thank you

places.sqlite: this file records EVERY website I've ever visited in a db table! This despite opting out of History and flushing daily It's frustrating that FF surreptiously collects such personal info. Why record every site I visit, date-timestamps, frequency, etc.?

moz_historyvisits_dateindex ON moz_historyvisits (visit_date) moz_places_lastvisitdateindex

As test, I changed the name to places-sqlite.old to see if FF will create a new one It didn't make a new table; re-created the old one.

I need to update FF because of the expired certificates, but would like to clear these out first. Similarly, can I get rid of the icon database? My bookmarks are backed up as JSON and HTML files. I just wished they didn't contain extraneous info

How do I get the PDF viewer to work again? For years I have used the setting "save" to automatically download. Now I am unable to view them without going in and changing the settings to "open in firefox". I would like to continue to use the save setting without having to constantly change this back and forth. When I click to open the file, all it does it grey out.

Since 2 hours ago the following site has stopped working correctly in Firefox. It was loading normally in the morning(3+ hours ago) but now it does not load any maps etc. It's a weather satellite site. The site is: https://www.wetteronline.de/wetterradar?wrm=7&wrx=38.19,25.97&wrp=periodCurrentHighRes&wrf=true

It works normally in Chrome, and Opera and Edge. But not in Firefox(I have the latest update). I have cleared cache for this, I have tried everything but it does not load the maps.

Does it work for you?

In the screenshots I show the normal loading in Chrome and what it does in Firefox.

My Firefox browser has been crashing for a while now (Years). It's fine playing YouTube and BBC iPlayer but when I advance the time marker to a different part of the stream or video, it crashes. It also has a problem when playing slots. It seems to crash a lot making it impossible to play.

I have tried using Firefox in Troubleshooting Mode but the same things happen.

Here's the crash report ID

Many thanks in anticipation and I hope someone can help me fix these issues.
