How do I stop Firefox from opening pop-up ads every time it slowly installs an update?

If you can't answer, I don't mind switching to a browser that isn't losing market share for eighty straight quarters due to features exactly like this.

Steam has new feature to share videos you record in game, but all other browser can open the link and play the video but fire fox cant.

 box    " mana.pf "   ???  What  's  problem   Give me a solution  ?

Rather than have dedicated computers for Work and Personal use I have dedicated accounts on multiple computers. Up until now I have been using Chrome for Work and Safari for Personal. I have been having more and more issues with Chrome, so I am moving my Work configuration to Firefox. Unfortunately, I have found a MAJOR difference in behavior. In Chrome I have 9 tabs setup to open when I start Chrome (my Home Page), these are the tools I use in my job; Jira, M365, Zabbix, GitLab, Digital Ocean, and a bunch of in-house tools. I set these up in Firefox, so far, so good. Unfortunately when I open a New Window, as I often do when working a specific problem, I get all of my Home tabs and I need to go through and close them all.

So my question is WHY there is not a setting to enable Home Page separate from New Window? I did find this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1281079 but it does not really answer the question as to why we cannot have the same behavior as Chrome. I understand that the current design just calls the same New Window code whether it is the first Window or the 100th Window, but setting a flag in memory once the first Window has been opened and checking that flag to determine if the New Window needs to open all the Tabs should not be that large a code change. Note I said a flag in memory and not on disk, as that would be a performance hit.

My second question is whether the powers that control Firefox would be open to such a code change if submitted? I understand how Open Source works and features that the volunteers working on code want to see are the ones that get developed.

Thank you.

My firefox browser is up to date but converting all pages to spanish and forcing me every time to translate the pages. This doesn't happen on Chrome or Edge. It doesn't happen on private browsing either. But I am a devoted FF user. I have followed the recommended solutions I found on line. But it isn't working. Please help?

Suddenly my Firefox has started coming up in Portuguese. I have reset the default language to English several times with no results. It has to be associated with the recent upgrade. How do I get the default language back to English?

The Firefox browser does not function now. I thought I had to update, got an error - Couldn't load xpcom and an entry point error, I have no clue what to do.

firefox is my default browser' i use Win 11 never had an issue before with Firefox *Email hidden for privacy*

Hi

Any help will be appreciated as I have this issue over a year. I thought with the updates it would be fixed but it seems like its only my firefox browser issue.

Every time I try to view a YouTube video it keeps crashing. I get this message - Gah. Your tab just crashed. We can help! Choose Restore This Tab to reload the page. YouTube works in other browsers though.

I went to use Foxfire this morning, it had an update for me, I clicked on it......and FIREFOX DISAPPEARED ! It then gave me the above notification. Also, now when I click on my Firefox Icon, it shows me a blank form that is trying to load something on it, over and over and over........

I have refreshed, tried troubleshooting, restarted several times, etc, etc. I am afraid to try reloading Firefox for fear of losing all of my data....passwords, library, bookmarks, downloads, etc...etc.

Now what do I do?????

Thanking you in advance.......Janice in northern Minnesota, near the Canadian border.......

HELP!!! I've been told that soon I won't be able to use firefox on my mac (mid 2010 version, still working fine) I'm currently using firefox version 115.17.0 esr. Are there any plans to make a workable workaround? I really can't afford a new laptop and firefox has always been my go-to browser. (I have to admit that I am absolutely ignorant of tech specs.) Any ideas Mozilla peeps, (or am I barking at the moon and have to bend to the capitalist oligarchy that desperately wants me to spend spend spend???) Thanks for any tips!
