Firefox supportforum

Hi I'm experiencing slowness especially in youtube thumbnails scrolling down. when video is playing if I click on settings to choose video quality etc it takes like 2 minutes to even open. This slowness not present in edge browser. I want to try older ver but I thought if someone might experiencing same or know what might be the problem

So I have the latest version of macOS Ventura, the latest version of Firefox, and the latest version of Roblox. Whenever I try to open a Roblox game from their website (yes, I know. Roblox now has the desktop app so you don't need the website to open a game), it opens the app, but not the link, which means it doesn't open the game :( Does anybody know how to get Firefox to open the link and not just the app? (Btw no hate on firefox)

My computer 'guru' reinstalled Win10 in order to correct a serious problem. ALL of my programs were gone and I was left with a raw Win10. 6/12/2023 was last date prior to the disaster. I reinstalled Firefox. Using the "firefox.exe -p" I can only find the default profile. I DO HAVE a full backup done using the Win7 Backup and Restore feature. How do I resurrect my most recent profile? I will need to find the files(s) manually from the b/u. When I did a Full Restore the bookmarks didn't appear. Where and what files am I looking for? The attached screen shots from the b/u may be of help. [removed email from public forum]

I don't understand what happened in the last 10 minutes where both my pc and my laptop can no longer open youtube videos in a new tab by right-clicking. I haven't made any changes, I haven't downloaded anything or installed anything new. The last firefox update for both machines happened yesterday between 1 and 2 in the afternoon. 18 hours after an update, I just lose a basic feature? I'm able to right-click and open youtube vids in edge. So it has to be a firefox thing... Any ideas or suggestions?

I've attached a pic to show you my right-click menu. I've never seen this menu before.

I want to remove any and all auto suggested search options from the search bars within whatever website I visit, such as the one shown below. This is not related to auto suggested options with Firefox's URL bar. This is for the search bar within websites.

First of all, let me just say that I love Firefox and refuse to use any other browsers

In my profession, I need to use Adobe products - somehow, the new Adobe Express (beta) will not run on Firefox browser, it run with no problems on Microsoft Edge and Chrome.

Do you have any idea what might have cause this issue? I understand that Adobe Express (beta) will go live soon, and it will be terrible that I couldn't continue on Firefox browser, I wonder if you can have Firefox developers take a look and maybe figure out with Adobe?

Thanks for listening and hope that you'll find a solution

Why is it Firefox can't control META timelines. Both Facebook and Instagram jump down several posts while scrolling.... I was going to blame it on META till I found this doesn't occur with Chrome or Edge. Firefox is my preferred browser due to the many addon's available.

I recently added the Firefox browser, and have it fully up-to-date, and tried adding a few extensions/add-ons. But nowhere are the icons for those extensions/add-ons showing up anywhere in the browser. Not even in the customize toolbars region. I can see that I've added those extensions/add-ons, but their associated icons are nowhere to be found.

How do I go about fixing/correcting this issue?

I have a DSL router and can not talk to it. It does not support https protocols but when I put in the address 192.168.0.1/status.html it changes it to https:192.168.0.1/status.html. This is a laptop and I have talked to another route that uses https at the same address but at a different location. How do I stop it from doing this?

I have been unable to login/sign in to my job website. It is not a network connection issue, nor that the website is temporary unavailable.

I keep getting this message:

'If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web'

After updating to 114.0.1 the print orientation for pdf's has disappeared. PDF's we used to print often now come out with the wrong orientation and have to be printed with the system dialog instead.

Suddenly I'm having issues clicking on links in emails that I get from known sources. Some say the website is blocked ("This website is blocked due to your current protection level. Please contact your network administrator to gain access."), others warn me about invalid certificates (and I ignore and proceed to, as I know the websites), but those pages never load. I've tried everything in another browser, and they function flawlessly, so it's not my Watchguard firewall nor Windows settings. I have the same issue sporadically clicking on email links in Outlook, so it's not only on links clicked IN Firefox (browser-based email). I've completely disabled all the Enhanced Tracking Protection, but still, nothing. I booted up another notebook, and it's exhibiting the exact same behavior (and that notebook doesn't have Norton on it to be an issue, (though I already have it completely disabled on the computer in question).

The tracking redirects that are causing me the post trouble are "http://trk.klclick1.com/ls/click?upn=..." and "https://t.e2ma.net/click/..."

As I mentioned, these are in emails from sources I get regularly. One is a website that sells their own products, and the latter is for a content-oriented site. The one that gave me problems from Outlook was news content, and (curiously enough), clicking on the image yielded the blocked site page, but clicking on the news heading beneath it got me through to the article in question, so I just figured it was an HTML email coding issue.

I had a financial transaction on an business account that I did not enter. The tech services people told me it came from from my PC. They are a big company as opposed to a small 'mom + pop' operation. They suggested I take PC in to a Big Box store to get PC scanned and remove any virus/malware found. Contacting the big-box store they said they could scan my PC remotely to look for virus/malware.

So, my question is: Should I take pc to local computer experts/big box store or purchase virus software to use myself?

I do have several free virus protection programs on my windows PC.

When I click a mailto link it brings up the GMail app. Instead I want the Yahoo Compose window. Several posts suggest various arcane methods. Either they do not apply or they require hacking. Has the situation improved?

How can I make mailto links go to the Compose window on mail.yahoo.com?

When I browse youtube I normally open videos in a new tab by right clicking on the thumbnail and selecting open in new tab - Menu is displayed with options specific to the LINK i just right-clicked on. i.e. "open link in new tab" , "open in new window" , "bookmark link", etc.

Now, when I right click on a youtube video thumbnail, a different menu appears, with options relating to the PAGE (itself)- i.e. "save page as..." , "save page to pocket", arrows to go to previous/next page, etc.

I tried to troubleshoot in safe mode but it's the same problem. This is on both my PC and Mac. What could the problem be? Appreciate your help!
