I've been using Firefox since Netscape ended and i always enjoyed it. Unfortunately the Firefox 72 is utterly hideous. It is the worst and most unstable browser i ever tested -- it's extremely slow, it doesn't even work with hardware acceleration, it's not compatible with most sites i access and it crashes a lot. Anyway I already reinstalled the version 71, which continues to work flawless and I don't plan to ever use auto updates again. The problem is that every single day Firefox tries to update to the horrible 72 version, and every day I have reject it manually.
I'm looking for a way to permanently block future Firefox updates, without asking me for it again. Any ideas?

Since Firefox cares about my privacy, I don't want to have my IP accidentally leaked due to unstable connection! And I don't want to use Tor for some reasons. How do I force my browser to work with VPN only? Like if I got disconnected, everything stops working until I turn on my VPN again. Is there anyway or any extensions that can take care of this job for me?

At every login screen where Firefox suggests saved logins, old out of date logins are included. I wish Firefox could just offer me 1 last used option. Or at least keep the last used login on top of the list. Now the last used and older logins just appear randomly in a list.
400 ERROR happens always in regular browsing, Never happens with private mode.

The Symptom:
1) In case of browsing https://stock.adobe.com/ only,
2) httpd returns 400 Error (cf. attached image).
3) when I use private mode, everything works perfect. I can browse, login and any other things.
4) Happens only in one Windows10 PC.
What I have checked:
1) Erased all cookies of *.adobe.com -> 400 Error
2) Browse with firefox on other PC -> IT WORKS!
3) Browse with Chrome on the same/other PC -> IT WORKS!
4) Laucn firefox in safemode and disabled all add-ons -> 400 Error
5) Browse the site in Private mode-> IT WORKS!
6) Tried to read http headers by Dev. Tools (see the attached figure)-> No Idea! (unfortunately)
7) When I requested favicon.ico and roborts.txt, the both always returned 200 status code and they are fine.
Question:
According to my troubleshooting, It must be clientside problem. I did everything I can think of, but 400 httpd error persists, only in one PC, this firefox only. What is the possible cause?

then i clicked on the bookmarks.html file ...it displayed in the textbox. ......but then it stated "no items" in the grey area below where it states "Names Tags Location"

I have various login usernames and passwords for various websites. Firefox (version 72.0.1) seems to remember the usernames and passwords ok, so I must have some settings right. But it won't log into those websites automatically when I click on a bookmark. The screen opens with the fields filled in, but I have to click through each login screen until I eventually reach the web site's home page. Under internet explorer the website home page would just open as soon as I clicked the bookmark link in my favorites When I go to about:config and search signon, then signon.rememberSignons is set to "true" signon.autofillForms is also set to "true"

I searched for a fix, it says (from 2016) if you are using 64 bit firefox you must switch to 32, beause the flashplayer for 64 bit firefox doesn't support Context3D. But that is completely irrelevant because I am using a 32bit firefox and getting the error. from what I've searched it's not flashplayer causing it. and I have just installed the newest flashplayer.

Hello All, I work for an organization and we are trying to upgrade from 60.7 ESR to 72.0.1 using a automated process. In doing so, I am having trouble having firefox use the current user profile in 60.7 and having firefox 72.0.1 defaulting to that same profile upon initial launch after installation. Instead, the new firefox creates a new profile and uses that instead of using the old profile. So my question is: is there a way to force firefox to use the old profile prior to installing FF 72? If not, is there a way to suppress the creation of a new profile so it is never created in the first place?

Running v68.4.1 esr. Have set app.update.auto to false (interesting this pref shows twice in about:config). Have removed the update URL Firefox is still trying to update. Many updates break something, so I want to manage the 10 PCs on Firefox on my schedule. I test all updates and resolve any issues before I roll out updates - the whole point of an ESR release. What am I missing?
Now that an update has been detected, once I block update, how do I get rid of the notification? If I back up my profile folder, uninstall and reinstall Firefox, then copy back my profile is it simply going to put it back to the state it's in now... wanting to update?

I had to reinstall Firefox browser. After reinstalling, I have noticed that the Tracking Protection shield was always grey. For every site I go to, the Tracker Protection summary (dropdown after clicking the shield) always says "No trackers known to Firefox were detected on this page". This is for sites that previously I know Firefox was blocking trackers.
I'm wondering if perhaps during the reinstall I've lost the file of known trackers somehow? Already tried reinstalling and restarting.
Thanks in advance for any help.

After starting Firefox. If I navigate to a page to soon it jumps back to the start page again (about:blank for me). Like it's restaring again somewhat. Just before the page is reste there seems like a windows opening in the bottom right but it closes before I manage to see content. Only add-on I have i uBlock Origin. Do you have any idea why this is happening. Is there some log I can look at or enable to see what is really happening? 73.0b7 x64 on Windown 10

Hello! My Firefox tabs crash constantly since I got a new computer. I have tried all the suggestions I can find in the forums. I did try downloading Firefox for enterprise but I could not figure out how to get it up and running, it seemingly installed, but Firefox seems to be the same. My new (to me) computer is a MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 if that has anything to do with it. I have Parallels installed on my computer for the first time, if that might have anything to do with it. I have not had the problem with Firefox crashing within the Virtual Machine, though. Here is the latest submitted crash report: bp-f70bd533-3d22-4cd6-9f39-498920200121 Thank you for any insights and help!
