I have tried to change sandbox level in firefox in about:config, but it doesn´t matter what level I set, I still have access to system files from the browser "file://" page, so that means that my files are exposed and sandbox it´s not restricting anything, right?. How could I solve it?. If I execute firefox with firejail the program crashes. I tried with Tor and the sandbox is working, so is not a problem with my OS, could I use the same configuration that Tor uses in firefox with some trick?. I´m in Linux Manjaro 4.19

Whenever I close or restart Firefox, my formhistory file is deleted and a fresh one replaces it. I do not want this to happen. In the Privacy & Security section, I have the "Clear history when Firefox closes" box unchecked and the "use custom settings for history" selected. Is there some other setting I need to set to prevent that file from being deleted when FF closes? Thanks for any response. Gary

I can't access many important features of websites in firefox, firefox private window, or Chrome. The only thing that loads properly is Chrome incognito. I think this has to do with security settings, but what I see doesn't match any of the articles on the support website. I don't even know what to turn off to load these sites properly. For example, I can't see the videos on tasty.co except for the homepage. Please help me manage my privacy settings.

I've been using Firefox in private mode when reading articles from the NY TImes and Washington Post for years. Both sites recently started detecting private mode and blocking access unless I turn private mode off (which is a nuisance when reading emails etc). Someone else posted this problem re: NY Times. I just updated to FIrefox 68.0.2 and the problem still exists. Can this be fixed?

Now that Firefox supports Windows Hello, is it possible to use this feature as the "Master Passwords" to secure the saved logins/passwords?
