I have always used Firefox, but also have Chrome and Edge on my 17" PC. For the past week or so, my scroll bar (on right side of screen) has "disappeared". It is actually still there, but so skinny that it cannot be seen or used. I Googled solutions to this, and found an article that had 8 possible solutions. I went through all 8, went into the various control options. Still, the same problem. Downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed. Still the same problem. So- I decided to see if it was an issue with my pc. I tried the Chrome browser. It works fine. I tried the Edge browser. It works fine. I know now that the problem is with the Firefox browser. Something "went wrong" in the latest version. To add to this -- I also have to note that if I shut down and restart the pc, I can get the Firefox scroll bar to return (sometimes). BUT (this is really weird): if the scroll bar appears normal, the bar at the top of the page (not sure what that is called) does not work correctly/ is missing features. This is what happens: there is no X to exit a page, there is no "V " sign to make a page small, etc. All 4 symbols that should be in the top right side of the top bar are missing. Also, there are no tabs available. It won't allow you to have more than one tab! So, if you are in your gmail (for example), you must close out the gmail in order to do a google search or do anything else! Something is terribly wrong with the latest Firefox update.

My Norton password manager extension will not open as a log in page. Still working properly on Microsoft Edge. I tried uninstall and reinstall with no change. No errors listed.

How does the translator determine when it is activated? Does the translator give the ability to translate selected text, or just the visited page?

I was trying to find a site to test it. I found this.

Spanish Proficiency Test

Maybe it's not an ideal example, but it neither translates the page, or gives the option to translate selected text.

I was uninstalling another app when I noticed that there are two application icons for Firefox, one dated 3/25 2023 and one dated 9/26/2023 (just installed new update). How do I get rid of the first application dated 3/25/2023?

I have been using the Walgreens web site to manage my many prescriptions without problems. Now, most of the Walgreens web site still works but the two menu options that need to display my personal prescription details fail with the display "Sorry, an unexpected error occurred. Please try again later." I initially thought that a Walgreens update might be in progress so just waited. Walgreens support gave me the same answer that there was probably web site maintenance in progress. After 4 days of the same problem and answer, I ported enough information to login in to Walgreens with the Microsoft Edge browser and access to my prescription information worked without a problem. I believe this problem with Firefox started around the time I updated to 117.0.1 but I might not have this perfectly correct. I was just notified to update to 118.0 and did so. Firefox access still fails and Edge access still works. Thanks for any help you can provide. Windows 10

After installing the latest update on my dell PC, firefox came up with a blank screen that would not allow search or even close. I had to use task manager to close and then uninstall. Note sure it's going to work.

After a recent Firefox update, there was no "restore" option. When I take the steps to restore the last session, the option is greyed-out. Luckily there is a decent-sized file named sessionstore.jsnlz4 in the folder from a few weeks ago, so I followed the instructions here to restore that file. BUT, even with that file placed back inito the appropriate folder, I still never get the option to "restore". I feel pretty sure that the file (1.18 MB) has inside what I need/want, but how can I get Firefox to "restore" using that file?

About three days ago, the dropdown lists for various websites I use stopped populating unless I use the backspace. So, for instance, if I want to find "John", nothing happens if I just start to type it in. But if I type in "Jo" and then backspace, John pops up. (Perhaps important: Even though I have now deleted the "o", only John pops up, not names beginning with J but followed by a different letter.) Curiously, it seems like the first time each day that I go onto any given website, the dropdown does populate properly, but just that once. I checked Edge and Chrome, and the dropdowns work fine there, so it's definitely a Firefox problem. Any ideas about what is going on and how I can fix it? Thanks.

Firefox, on my windows laptop, has suddenly decided that it doesn't like Coinsbit.IO I get no error messages just that the popup windown doesn't come up. I have followed all the throubleshooting, turned off popup blocjers and ad blockers but I still cannot get in

Hi all. I recently tried to access an instrument company's webpage, and Firefox stopped me. I thought it was just doing the "overprotective" thing, since there's been times it's done it to perfectly fine sites that i go to all the time. I got a weird notification about it being a porn virus, and closed the window. Ever since, i keep getting these notifications, all of them the same as the first. They're all coming from Firefox, and they're all spammy-- i don't even *have* Norton.

I've scanned with the antivirus app i *do* have, i've cleared Firefox's cache, i've restarted my phone. I'm not sure what else to do, since i've never had this happen before. I've used the desktop version for over 10 years, and never had anything similar to this happen.

Thank you for your help!

Hello,

I have requested support for this issue multiple times. Please assist.

Firefox always displayed my website main image until the latest update. Now on any device that uses the Firefox browser my main website homepage image does not display leaving a huge white area on the homepage. This of course is now a major issue that did not exist with this same image before.

Nothing has changed in the programming of my website which is why I need support from your tech and if anything is blocked could Firefox please unblock my main image to show on all Firefox browsers?

I look forward to your quick response.

Thank you

why does the word Australia show at the bottom of my google search page?

EDIT: Disregard. I used the settings in the lower right corner and set my region to the United States and now the grey bar with Australia in it is gone.

For a long time now, the items listed in the "window" drop-down menu have randomly changed order each time I open Firefox, so that I always have to search the list for the window I want. With the latest update, it now changes while I'm looking at the menu, & not simply the order, but also the wording of entries. This appears to affect commercial sites, which makes me think that the companies involved are paying Firefox to make their sites more visible. If this is the case, it is both exceedingly annoying and also fairly reprehensible given your general ethos. Is there any way to stabilize (& rationalize) the order of the windows in the drop-down menu?
