Firefox Community Forum

Twice in recent weeks I received the message "Your account and your personal data will be permanently deleted on [Wednesday, Jun 10, 2026] because you haven’t been active" at my email address of [edited] @gmail.com. However, my email on your records is [edited] @yahoo.com. I access both of those email accounts on my computer (Windows 11) through my Firefox browser.

When Using fire fox it loads sites very slow if at all, and does not use correct passwords for the site selected. I use Norton Security and am operating on windows 11. When using Microsoft edge for the same it works fine. I've had firefox for years and have always updated it, but within the last week or so it seems to be getting worse and worse. Any Suggestions?

I go through the process up to 2FA then I get this message " Looks like there’s a problem with this site The server at outlook.live.com sent back an error: 401 Unauthorized".

I recently tried MS Edge even though I always use Firefox. I went through the login process including 2FA and got right in to my email. Can you help?

I prefer to use Firefox and have used it for years.

Thanks

Hi,

i can see all my previous tabs in history but can't reopen window?

I didn't close those tabs, one time i opened mozilla and they were all closed.

Help me, thank you

I'm too old and tired to try to find my way around the new update. How can I return to the previous version? Life was so simple. Now I spend more time trying to find things that I can't find than I do online doing something productive.

Please tell me there's a simple way to get back to the previous version and that I won't lose my bookmarks and links.

Hello, I can't log in to Facebook, only through Firefox, and that's the problem. Edge and Chrome work fine. I've already deleted cookies and temporary files, and still nothing. This problem has been occurring for a while.

I cannot access any site on the internet, including all that I use normally like mail and newspaper sites, medical provider websites. Neither Firefox nor Safari work--I get the same error message on both. This doesn't happen with other isp providers, like a public computer in the library, just at home. Could there be a modem or isp provider problem at my home?

Since dawn of times I'm using Firefox with a search box in the center of my Home page for new tabs and windows. It is the most important tool in my life as a web content manager. A few years ago my searches suddenly started to jump to the URL bar as soon as I started typing. An URL bar is - as the says - for URL's and it sits way at the top of my 27" and 32" screens, where my focus is not.

Luckily, this forum saved me with the about:config setting browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar > false to save my life.

A few months ago this was broken by 148.something. After about a month in hell that was repaired with a dot release. And now (151.0.3, Windows 11) it's broken again:

In normal mode it still works as expected, but the search box is not in the center anymore, it has been moved up to about 300 px from the top. Fixed, independent from window size !?! If you make the window small it moves out sight eventually.

In Private Windows it is still in the center vertically, but browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar > false does not seem to work there. As soon as I start typing it jumps to the address bar.

I used the UK location to access BBC Sounds but it advised that I was out of the area (UK). I note that the URL becomes https://www.bbc.com/audio (the international alternative) in stead of https://www.bbc.com/Sounds (the domestic alternative). This prevents me from accessing the radio channels that I am seeking, namely Radios 3, 4 and 4Xtra and iPlayer.

I am trying to find and activate the free Firefox VPN offered. I had the VPN icon on my tool bar then it disappeared a couple of weeks ago....the icon is not on my toolbar.....I have searched the tools...themes...customize toolbar to no avail...I can not find it anywhere. Can you help?...I am on a PC laptop using Windows 11.. Can you help?

Clicking allow acts like a snooze button 4 minutes later I got same warning again. Tried to clear google's cache (also all data). After (I guess) 4, 5 update issue still remains. I'm pretty sure there are lots of same question about this but I've checked community and reddit but no real answer so?

Firefox 151.0.3 macOs 15.7.7

I have no idea what is going on with Mozilla Firefox lately, but ever since the update to add the VPN has happened, (and I DO NOT use it), the response time for accessing any websites has gone into the toilet.

wie kann ich den ad blocker bei firefox deaktivieren ? weil bei yahoo werden die eingabefelder fuer Bestätigungscodes nicht angezeigt und ich kann somit meine telefonnummer nicht verfizieren

PDFs seem to keep turning black when a pdf appears on Firefox and Downloads with Firefox. The preview of pages is still intact. Turning off hardware acceleration does not solve the issue. How do I fix this problem?
