Firefox is updating 2-4 x/month while in use and has to be restarted. But my setting is on "Check for updates, but choose when to install". The last update recorded is listed as February 2026. So what gives? Thanks

Hello, I noticed that when browsing webpages in Firefox, a window periodically appears asking me to confirm a certificate, presumably from a website (roughly called lt3.google). I haven't downloaded anything malicious and I regularly scan my system with an antivirus. Please help and respond. Thanks in advance.

I am writing to report a recurring technical issue that began appearing today across multiple devices.

When attempting to access Google websites (specifically Gmail and Google News) using the Firefox browser, users are being prompted to identify themselves via a security certificate. Previously, this authentication step did not occur, and access was seamless.

Key Observations:

Impact: We have confirmed this behavior on three firm-issued computers as well as one personal device.

Browser: The issue is isolated to Firefox; other browsers appear unaffected.

Timing: This behavior was not present yesterday; it started manifesting today.

We suspect this may be related to a recent network configuration change, a new security policy rollout, or a browser update that has altered how Firefox handles trusted connections to Google services.

Could you please inform me whether there have been any recent changes to our SSL inspection proxies, root certificate stores, or DNS configurations? Additionally, does anyone else on the team have visibility into a widespread incident affecting Google certificates, or should we proceed with troubleshooting individual profiles?

I have always been able to click on a box in the upper right to see my bookmarks on the left side of the screen.

This has now disappeared and the only way I can see the bookmarks is to go to "manage bookmarks". I don't see how to bring it back to the way it was.

I didn't knowingly change anything.

Thank you

when accessing websites where Cloudfare is part of the sequence the page hangs on cloudfare and the page is not displayed. Every time data is transferred through cloudfare the page hangs on cloudfare rending the search useless.

One Win 10 laptop has Firefox 151.0.4 64bit and I've got the Firefox VPN working on it. My other Win 10 laptop has Firefox 152.0 32bit for some reason, and I've logged on Mozilla but all I can find in VPN requires payment. I don't understand the diff that the higher version is 32bit and I can't find the FREE VPN . What should I do?

Morning, I dont know why but before i reset my pc i had a sport widget with all the other widgets, but after the reset i redownloaded firefox and got back all the widgets exept the sport one, any way i can fix this issue please? Thx in advance

Firefox just updated to 152 this evening on my Windows 11 Pro system. It seems slow compared to prior versions. Also , every time you log out , it crashes and activates crashreporter which files the report. Any clues? Nothing changed on the system except for Firefox.

I'm trying to use the built in VPN. I'm signed in but it just keeps returning me to the same page. The VPN icon doesn't have a green tick - it keeps the little black cross next to it. What am I doing wrong?

I cannot get into Firefox due to an error message that keeps coming up. Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible.

I have tried deleting and reinstalling it, but it didn't really uninstall completely. I have tried a few suggestions from online, which didn't work. I also tried right clicking on the Firefox symbol and went into some of the different options, but nothing worked for me.

Just checking Facebook "download your information" and got this:

```

     {
       "timestamp": 1781017200,
       "label_values": [
         {
           "label": "Date",
           "value": "2026-06-09"
         },
         {
           "label": "Business or organization",
           "value": "Firefox",
           "description": "The business or organization that added you to a Custom Audience"
         }
       ]
     },

```

Is this actual Firefox passing my info to Meta, or some Meta scammer pretending to be Firefox?

On that date, I had Global Privacy Control turned on in Firefox.
