After the recent Firefox update to 151.0 I can no longer log into Facebook. The reCAPTCHA is now broken. I did a system restore to version 150.0.3 and it works fine. Something is broken and I don't want to restore all my computers and devices. Thank You.

Webgl has completly broken after last update for me. Forcing webgl in about config doesnt work and it doesnt work in troubleshoot mode either. Anything else i can try apart from reinstall from scratch as im worried about losing my history,saved account info and such. Or do i just need to do a full refresh and install? Thank you!

When trying to view a Fusion 360 model or a Sketchup 3D model, I get a message that WEBGL is not supported by my device. It has always worked in the past and still works under Opera and Chrome.

With all the background auto updates, it's hard to determine what changes have been made to my PC prior to it stopped working.

After searching for solutions and going through the checklist:- 1. My video (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti) drivers are up to date, 2. "Use hardware acceleration when available" is checked in Firefox. 3. "WEBGL.disabled" is set to false.

Is there some other tweak in Firefox that I'm missing? I'm assuming it's a Firefox issue/bug as it works in other browsers... just tested Edge... worked OK.

I'm running Windows 11 on a fairly high end PC which I believe is up to date. Last checked 12 hours ago.

Any suggestions would be appreciated... however, please consider that I'm just a dumb user and not a techo.

We thought this is simple. But it looks like we need to have words explained to us. Setting firefox to never remember history makes it produce some claims that it looks like it developers aren't really aware of the meaning of. Setting it to "Never remember history" makes it automatically check "Clear cookies and site data every time you close Firefox" and "Based on your history settings, Firefox deletes cookies and site data from your session when you close the browser.". After having done that firefox forces a restart. We use it a little bit and close it again. Then open it up and re-enable "Remember history". It will force another restart, and then suddenly remember all the things it was told not to remember. Like automatically relogging into google for you, opening tabs, and things like that.

So. Can someone explain to us the meaning of the words "forget", "never", "history", "clear", "cookies and site data", "every time", "close firefox", "deletes", "close the browser". We thought it couldn't be more obvious that what the user intends with these settings is for you to delete the user data. Like you claim you do. And then you wonder why people say firefox is bought and payed for by google. If anyone of you can find the time to take your tongues out of google long enough to define these words for us we would forever be thankful. Can please someone please teach us please english please?

Can you enable members to pin there folders and pages in the bookmark bar so that it looks neater and can fit more pages and folders etc, even multiple pages and folders together same as the tab bar,

also allow more power to open and use more tabs at the same time upto as many as will fit on page, 50?

i use manual traffic exchanges, which i have to surf and change tabs regulary and faster to surf more manual traffic exchange websites, we need this to build up free advertising credits to promote our programes and business opportunities.

Also can i add all my GMAIL, yahoo mail and notepad accounts together in 1 fixed pinned dropdown tab instead of using up multiple tabs.

Suddenly I have to click passed something called a profile screen. Don't want it. totally useless. Absolutely annoying. I never want to see it again. How do I do that?

Since many years now, there are more and more Websites which don't work properly under Mozilla. Each time I write to the Webmaster, I receive this answer. We have not optimized your website for Mozilla Firefox, whose technology is outdated.

Many websites don't display interactive maps in Mozilla.

I understand that Mozilla has a very good system for protecting personal data and prevents sites from tracking users. I also understand that Mozilla allows for efficient cookie deletion, which commercial companies probably don't appreciate. Is this the only reason why so many companies don't want to optimize their websites for Mozilla?

Latest update shows a new built in Firefox VPN provided but there is not any icon etc to start. Nothing about it on my Firefox browser. I checked at " customize toolbar " and nothing for a VPN even there. I am from Turkiye. I need it . Thank you.

Hi - Recently when I was on either my desktop or laptop I saw a notification that the sidebar would be going away. I can't seem to find any information on that now though. Will the sidebar still be going away soon? I for one would like to say that I enjoy that feature and would like to see it stay an option on desktops/laptops. If it does go away, how do we access bookmarks and synced tabs? Is there anything I need to do ahead of it possibly going away? Thanks in advance for your help!

I'm using v151.0 on Windows 10. The title bar disappears at random intervals and I have to close the application using Alt F4 and relaunch to restore it. I think the menu might disappear too. Otherwise I could close use File -> Exit.

Hi,

I have saved websites with save as and when I try to open the saved page, that page opens for about 1-2 seconds and then goes to the home page for that site, where you can search for information?

For example, when you open a saved job from Indeed:com, the job opens for about 1-2 seconds and then goes to the page in the attached file.

Have a great day!
