My FF browser freezes, suddenly closes all tabs, expands fonts, etc etc All else in my system is normal. Should I just use the default MS Edge and be done with it?

Getting "https://workspace.google.com/products/voice/" dozens of times at the top of browser. It shows as G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G across the top of browser. Getting sick of deleting each one. Will switch to a different browser soon.

Hi, for some reason, I am severely restricted in size when uploading files to Facebook, with a maximum .jpg size of under 50k. I do not have this restriction in Microsoft edge, or on my phone, only on my laptop. I do not have an ad blocker installed that I am aware of. Appreciate any help. Cheers, Merv.

I had to re-installed from 0 my windows. I was sure my Firefox account had all my passwords and logins because I had problems in the past regarding this. Installed Firefox into my new fresh windows. Hit the Sync bottom. Lastly, remove the old Firefox account login from old windows (for safety).

Now I checked password, 0 passwords saved.....

I am trying to re-sync but nothing happens...

it is not set as home page but msn page is automatically opening immediately after login in our network but I could not stop it. Please advise how to stop automatically opening msn page in new tap after logging in.

Hi,

Firefox version: 139.0.4 (64-bit) OS: Windows 11

I have been having issues where Firefox tab will just crash out for no reason it appears and it happens at random times and once the tab start to crash, and I restore it, it will crash again and again. The only way tog et out of the loop is to restart Firefox.

I have tried: Refreshing/Reset, Clearing Cache and History removing all themes, disabling extensions, disabling my anti virus. Turning off hardware acceleration didn't make any different.

I currently have 2 extensions enabled: uBlock Origin 1.64.0 and Bitwarden Password Manager 2025.5.0

In the about:Crashes I have reported them all and they seem to have the same type of reasons in the Raw data/Minidump which are: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ

Any help as to what to try next?

I understand that Firefox relies on both intermediate and root CA certificates for verifying add-on signatures. There was a recent incident where a root certificate expired on March 14, 2025, as noted in the following article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/root-certificate-expiration

Could you please let me know the latest validity period (expiration date) of the root and intermediate certificates currently used for add-on signature verification in the latest version of Firefox (139.0.4)? I understand the certificates involved may vary depending on the add-on, but I would like to confirm this specifically for the following add-on:

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Sending this using Safari because Firefox is totally messed up. Firefox 115.24.0esr (64-bit) OSX 10.13.6 High Sierra 2011 Mac Power Book (MPB) with 16 GB RAM. Verizon DSL line, download speed tests from 10-14 Gb/sec but Latency is always 400-900+ msec. No way to measure Jitter with speedtests that will run on my older system, or Bufferbloat now that DSLreports has gone dark.

I want a tool that will allow me to see all the attempts to connect, and packets/traffic, to see it its my old computer going bad, Firefox, the wireless or wired connection to the DSL modem/router, or the DLS modem/router itself, such as a problem with reaching the Domain Name Server (DNS) etc.

I can access the DSL modem/router in the browser, but there isn't much documentation. Its made by Actiontec but customized firmware for Verizon.

The problem persists whether I am using wifi or an Ethernet cable.

My wifes 2010 MBP computer with 8GB RAM using about 6.4GB, running High Sierra and Firefox 115.24.0 (esr) seems not to have the problem at all.

Firefox will show something in the lower left corner, "connecting to..." or "loading..." etc. It can stall with either status.

Search engines would be StartPage or DuckDuckgo. With DDgo, sometimes it just spins forever, but if I click on the URL bar, it drops down another line with the same URL and "--Visit" appended. Sometimes that will load, but seems random.

Some URLs / links open in a few seconds, some spin forever.

I first called Verizon Tech support on May22 about problems (see full exchange of repeated calls & new trouble tickets below). I think, IIRC, this happens to be shortly after I upgraded my Firefox version. They have admitted to PINGs not returning, packet loss, no excuse for the Latency.

I do have a lot of pages/tabs open; Activity Monitor says my memory use is about 14GB, but the Memory Pressure stays low in the green. I also run Thunderbird, TextEdit, maybe Adobe Reader and Excel. But even when I close everything else, the non-loading issue persists. When I shut down Firefox, the memory pressure can go into the red and take a very long time (so I always shut down all other apps first). A recent shutdown stalled & I ended up losing many open pages/tabs, but even the slimmed down load has the same problem.

I have shut off the AddOn NoScript, but the problem persists.

2-3 working days for networking team to resolve

THUR 22MAY25 call back from networking guy. they raised the speed to 13.4 but latency still 28, he says should be 15 max. Asked him to optimize by reducing download speed. will call back later or tomorrow.

Hello Team My name is Sergii and Im C# Automation engineer and working with desktop automation for Firefox (latest version, 139.0.4). I have noticed interesting issue when for some VDI's (Windows Server 2019 Standart, OS Build 17763.7009) Firefox doesn't have Desktop Automation ID, while for my Windows 10 and Windows 11 machines everything is visible (Please checks screenshots). Do you know how to fix this? I have tried to install browser through the same Firefox Installer.exe file but looks like server detecting another OS version and downloading some another file... Thanks!

hallo zusammen wo finde ich in firefox eine funktion, die mir die zuletzt angesehen und geöffneten tabs wieder herstellt?😐

in den einstellungen ist "Vorherige Fenster und tabs öffnen" angehakt.

es kommt aber wiederholt nach updates dazu, dass die letzten fenster und tabs nicht wieder geöffnet werden, sondern nur 1 tab mit der festgelegten startseite.🤷‍♂

muss ich mich damit abfinden, dass die letzten tabs hin und wieder im nirwana verschwinden? oder gibt es auch dafür einen tipp für laien?🙏

Firefox 139.0.4 changed behavior of text search (find-in-page). It now opens closed accordions and finds text in the <details> text (which it did not do prior to this update). This really breaks my webpage. I think this was changed for compatibility with Chromium.

Is there a config setting to change this behavior? Alternatively, can I change the accordion html so that Firefox will not search the <details>? (These are my private webpages, so I can edit them.)

Well,I found firefox browser in disk c: so I just uninstall and install it again in another disk.I do see firefox account was that very firefox account,but.........when install finished and login firefox account,It shocked,firefox is building a new account witch I used over 1 year,yes,witch account I saying these.OMG what happen?I can't find my bookmarks and colleted pages...OMG what happen somebody help me!!!

updated my wife's computer firefox to 115.24.0 (esr) and the profile data is lost (bookmarks, addons...).

Went to about:profile and it says PROFILE IN USE: default esr which is the 5th out of six profiles, top to bottom. It should tell me the creation date for each profile.

The 6th in line says "profile: default -release" Is the last in line the NEWEST profile? Should I set that one to be active ( ie the "default profile)?

This usage of the word DEFAULT in multiple meanings is confusing The display should number each profile and tell the user which is the oldest to newest.

This is acting like it is a new version, not a mere update - the user should be warned before he is allowed to perform that process, and given links to what will need to be done to retrieve the previous Profile.

After last upgrade, I restored an earlier profile to RESTORE my bookmarks and passwords.

I set my old profile as DEFAULT.

YET NOW, I have the highly annoying problem that when I open a link from my email, it opens in the profile-release new version.... I then again do not have access to passwords and bookmarks.

Mozilla Firefox should address these issues, rather than have MILLIONS of people individually trying to fix the problems that the latest release caused.

I'm afraid to close my browser windows or even restart PC like I often do; I'm afraid I'll have to waste another 6 hours (like yesterday) trying to restore the profile, bookmarks and passwords.
