According to Firefox Help, "After you have defined and set your Primary Password, you will be prompted to enter it once for each Firefox session, when Firefox needs access to your stored passwords." But since updating to version 136.0 I get asked for my Primary Password even to see my home page. Why is this?

Windows 11 23H2 FireFox 136.0.1

When clicking check for updates it firstly shows the rotating arrows icon for a long time and then says "Failed to Check for Updates"

I've completely reinstalled Firefox and this continues to happen

I do not have NordVPN or any other VPN installed

The behaviour is the same in troubleshoot mode

Hi,

It is say that is an security problems,..., but all of them?? suddenly??

can you please provide some support/help?

I attach screenshoot with release and evidences disabled.

Tks

Ok, this is a weird one.

I can't load https://duckduckgo.com. It breaks search in a new tab, but I also can't visit it directly from the url. The tab simply does not load.

I've cleared cache, cookies, and extensions. I've refreshed Firefox more than once.

I can visit https://html.duckduckgo.com. I can visit https://lite.duckduckgo.com.

However! In a private window, I can visit https://duckduckgo.com It still breaks in a secondary normal window.

No other site appears to be broken.

I searched the forums and found a few similar entries but i couldn't see any solution so far. Whenever i try to open my inbox the page initially loads and shows the progress bar but after the progress hits 100% it just hangs there and nothing happens. See screenshot please. Gmail works normally in other browser (MS Edge) and my Android phone. I've been experiencing this issue for more than a month now. Not sure exactly when it started. Probably with v134. Installing v135 fresh didn't change anything. This is one of the most persistent issues i've experienced about browsers. I use Avast AV but all browser modules are disabled + web shield disabled.

So far i tried these steps to no avail: - Clear cache and history - Clear whole site data by using "forget site" feature - Clear cache and cookies using the padlock icon next to the search bar - Disable/enable hardware acceleration - Disable/enable javascript (gmail requires javascript to work anyways) - Disabled all add ons/extensions, tried safe mode - Reinstalled firefox after uninstalling and deleting any left over folders

My system specs: - Windows 10 pro 22h2 x64 - ASrock B450M HDV R4 Mainboard - AMD Ryzen R5 3600X CPU - AMD RX 6600 GPU - 16 GB DDR4 3000 RAM, 250 GB M2 SSD

Fire Fox (Mozella) browser appears to be censuring content? In Fire Fox, when I read Fox Digital, I cannot see the comments any more when I’m signed in nor, signed in or not, the display boxes containing X posts and links. In the Federalist articles I can get the comments when I’m signed in, but the X content in them are not displayed. Comments in Yahoo are missing too. I tried changing Browser Privacy settings in Fire Fox, turning off my VPM, ad blockers, and tracker blockers but it does not correct the problem. All this content is available in Duck Duck Go and Edge browsers. Perhaps I have something I’m not aware of turned on but… Here’s two links to check out in Fire Fox then another browser.

please forgive me for asking again, but I REALLY need my addons to work. Firefox disabled my addons, forcing me to upgrade to a version of firefox that I don't need, since the old one was working just fine. The new version does not seem to appear to have downloaded properly, and neither version is allowing my addons to work or be re-installed. Please explain it to me like I am 5 years old, and help me to get this fixed without losing any of my info that might be stored in the addons.

 Thank you.

Hello,

Suddenly some UI elements became color-inverted or almost completely black, such as the tab icons in the tab bar, the website icons on the New Tab page and some icons in the settings menu. Also, some websites appear to have this issue, but the Samsung website is the only one I found so far with this issue.

On the same day it happened I switched to an OLED HDR-capable monitor, so I assumed it would be related to HDR, but I played around with some settings and I'm not sure anymore.

What I tried: - hardware acceleration on and off - HDR completely on and off - default light theme and dark theme, no customs themes installed - all extensions disabled (I have no extensions that would influence graphics or colors anyways) - latest update already installed - nothing else changed in the Nvidia control panel as far as I remember

None of the above helped. Any advice on this is appreciated. Attaching some pictures with the issue. Using Windows 11.

Thank you!

So I have a bunch of Firefox profiles I want to set up a new profile and I want to set up the profile switching with in that profile perhaps by creating a bunch of profiles from the about profiles page and then replacing those profiles with the old ones as I don't see a way to just import old profiles in the UI. How do I go bout doing that like copy and move exactly what exactly where.

I do not want to update my firefox .There is any way to do somthing to works Add-Ons.

Trying to browse ebay using Firefox. The pages have become really slow when loading.When scrolling down the page is blank then slowly populates as I scroll down the page. I've just tried microsoft edge and there is no problem.

I checked my add-ons in settings to see what was wrong as I noticed the icons were missing. Upon looking at the proper tab, everything "could not be verified" (including themes) even though everything was working perfectly within 24 hours prior to the issue arising. When trying to reinstall anything from the extension store, all I receive is a "this appears to be corrupt and thus will not install." Clicking the "more information" button on any/all affected add-ons reveals that everything is unsigned. How do I alleviate this?

I have a HUGE problem with Firefox memory usage. Some open instances of firefox are taking anywhere from 600mb to 2.8gb of memory. Since firefox opens MANY instances even with only ONE active window, this very quickly uses all available memory (4gb) causing a full laptop crash.

More concerning is that CLOSING the worst instance of memory usage STILL leaves the single open page/tab open, so what exactly was the memory eating instance actually doing ???

I have included a screengrab of the many remaining instances of firefox in windows task manager AFTER closing the main culprit.

I have also included a screengrab of all the adblockers I use which I believed would limit unnecessary memory usage, but does not seem to be effective.

Many Thanks

i am looking for a way to protect myself and my children from accessing or having to see / have shoved down our throat content promoting lgbtq. please provide me a blocker to block agenda driven sex ed and ALL LGBTQ content.

Have new W11 laptop. Installed Firefox and have set it to my default browser but if I use the search box it opens the results in Edge. Where is the setting to enable W11 search box to use Firefox.

After upgrading to FIREFOX 133 everything became a mess !!

Most pages will RANDOMLY not load and show “Security Connection Failed” message, indicating mostly one of this two errors Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG Additionally and consistently trying to access Amazon makes it think I am a Robot, and shows a page with a Captcha but the images do not load (Image attached) 1Password fails in some pages (Such as CNN), the page shows an error message when userid & password are filled in, rendering it useless. NONE of this happen on previous versions of Firefox or on EDGE with the updated Norton360

I have tried: - Uninstalling, deleting all files and re-installing both Firefox and Norton 360 - Deleting the Firefox profile and starting from zero - Using Firefox without any Extension, it works for a while but then fails (memory overlay issue ?) - Loading a few extensions, again works for a while but then fails. If more trhan 4 or 5 extensions are loaded the problem is immediate (memory overlay issue ?) - Turning off Norton sometimes helps get to a page, and when turning it back on keeps working … Sometimes it does not - - Checked all indicaytions on support article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/secure-connection-failed-firefox-did-not-connect without any luck WHAT TO DO ?

Whenever I open up PDFs within the Firefox browser, they have a black background and the text and images do not appear. I can copy the text and images out of the pdf and into a word document and it works out fine. Also opening it up on other applications works out fine. Attached is what happens when I open up a known working pdf in Firefox. The browser version is the current version, 135.0.
