Dear Sir/Madam

I would like to know if Firefox has been able to make compact or reduce the sizes of the Tools and Menu bars. For the last time I checked they were too wide, thus making the Interface ugly.

Kind regards.

Using latest version of Firefox for PC (Version 135.0 (64-bit)). As of a few months ago, I can no longer delete suggested webpages from the address bar drop down. Per the instructions, I should be able to right click on an item and select: "Remove From Toolbar" but that option is greyed out. I have looked through the Address Bar settings and can't find a setting that affects it. Am I doing anything wrong? This problem is exactly the same on both my Windows 10 PC and my Windows 11 laptop. Both started with this issue 2 or 3 months ago.

The Context: I'm setting up a new Linux PC (Mint OS). I logged into Yahoo Mail using Firefox and clicked on the browser notification in the corner that said something like "Make Yahoo the default for mail links".

The Problem: When I click Mailto links in Firefox it takes me to a broken Yahoo Mail page. The page says "Your mail is temporarily unavailable" when that is not the case - Yahoo Mail works when I manually browse it.

Further details: I confirm that the "Applications" section of Firefox settings shows Yahoo mail as the default for mailto links. And specifically, the application details specify that the url used is: https://mail.yahoo.com/mrd/mail/any/compose?src=mailto&url=%s

When I navigate to youtube and try to watch a video, the player does not load. It just shows white in the space where the player should be. No video, no audio, no nothing. No matter what video I click, the same thing happens. The only workaround I have found is that if I go to a page with an embedded youtube video, and click the "watch on youtube" link that appears in it, it will load a youtube page that can play videos normally. I can use that page to navigate youtube and it will operate normally. However if I type in youtube.com or get to the site some other way, the issue happens where it is only white space. It is very frustrating.

While doing general computer cleanup I mistakenly deleted my most recent Firefox 'profile' from my laptop; this was about 2 and a half years old and contained a lot of data. Predictably, my Firefox data/bookmarks/etc on my laptop appears to be wiped completely. This shouldn't be a problem, as my iPhone has been synced to my laptop and has all the missing data saved, but it has been one hour of the Sync loading without any input from me and no sign of things being restored. I cannot find any of the listed options to sync manually. Am I just being impatient or am I doing something wrong? Additionally, I cannot access/make new bookmarks full stop.

Hello,

I inadvertently used the option Block Element to get rid of a horrible recurring spam post on FB. I thought I was just blocking that post but what it ended up blocking the options on my whole Facebook program, so now I can't edit/undo anything on my FB page. I know it's within Firefox as it doesn't happen on the other browsers when I am using FB.

I tried to look it up but can't find anything to help me. I was hoping I could end up talking to a real person as I know it can get confusing but perhaps you can give me step by step instructions?

I need to know how to UNDO blocking an element. I've attached an image but I'm not sure if it fully explains what I'm dealing with.

Thanks, Ellen Claxton

I'm on a page I want to save to bookmarks. I double click the star and select the bookmark list, then save - but the page is not showing on the list. The list was recovered from another browser but was originally Firefox. Should I start a new bookmark list and if so how do I import all the categories and book mark?

Part of the problem is the actual web design of the Copilot website itself, and the other part of the problem is the 135.0 version of Firefox.

Unfortunately, by default, when you open the Copilot website it does not open the home page, instead it opens as https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/ *insert random bunch of numbers and letters here*

For example the Copilot website can open as: https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/AcGUzo3i36EDksXWgi8v7, or https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/j7dpCJXTMDKZydZnCkAut, or https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/FARyH9xrbWd1LkkSmXPrC, or https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/aGX4tbeUwkaZ9RVP1CxBm, etc etc.

So it's the '/chats/*insert random bunch of numbers and letters here*' part of the URL dynamically changes every time you open the Copilot website or if you refresh the Copilot website page.

Using the 134.0.2 version, when I entered the Copilot website via https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/ *insert random bunch of numbers and letters here* I could click the back button and it would take me back to the home page which is: 'https://copilot.microsoft.com' but with the 135.0 version, due to what I suspect is caused by this feature introduced in the 135.0 version:

Firefox now includes safeguards to prevent sites from abusing the history API by generating excessive history entries, which can make navigating with the back and forward buttons difficult by cluttering the history. This intervention ensures that such entries, unless interacted with by the user, are skipped when using the back and forward buttons.

I can no longer click on the back button to go back to the home page - 'https://copilot.microsoft.com'.

I can still click the Copilot icon 'Go to home' button element which does take me back to the home page 'https://copilot.microsoft.com', but clicking the actual back button to go to: 'https://copilot.microsoft.com' (which was achievable on the 134.0.2 version), was much more convenient.

I can confirm that this is a problem with the 135.0 version of Firefox because not only was this problem not happening with the 134.0.2 version of Firefox, but the problem also does not happen with Brave or Edge either.

Using Brave or Edge I can navigate to https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/ *insert random bunch of numbers and letters here* and they enable me to click the back button which proceeds to take me back to the home page which is 'https://copilot.microsoft.com'.

OS: Xubuntu 24.04.1 Firefox: All version for quite a long time up through version 135.

In general I have no problem with direct URLs loaded into Firefox, whether from local links or from remote sites.

However, sometimes, possibly as a result of an embedded link in an email, or from a site that pops-up a new instance of the default browser (i.e., Firefox), the URL is mangled with a local filesystem path prepended to the proper URL. The path seems to be one that Firefox accessed in the recent past. For example, a path such as: /usr/local/bin

When the browser starts up, The URL field will show: /usr/local/binhttps://.........

I then have to delete the leading path component before I can access the URL. I'd include a test case if I could find something repeatable that I could post here, but at the moment I don't have one.

Any ideas why this is happening and any suggestions for a way to stop it.

Thanks.
