How do I remove or permanently hide the sidebar? It is currently taking up too much of my screen space and I can already access my bookmarks without needing them to be accessible on the side. Please make a user friendly version that allows people to easily remove the sidebar. Customizing so that it still stays there is not helping.

How do I remove the stupid sidebar??? I ve always loved Firefox but Ive just reinstall Windows and then Ive installed Firefox. And this ridiculous sidebar showed. Ive marke Show and hide but still keep on displaying, stealing space from my browsing... :(

How do I remove the annoying sidebar on the side in Firefox? I have read and tried all the advice and none work. How do get rid of it permanently? I have read the help from Tech Support etc none work! I do not want it. Thank you.

I recently updated to ESR 115 and then to ESR 128.2 and I noticed that there's no Ublock Origins icon. I checked my settings and was shown to a window of installed and suggested add-ons and there I found an entry for Ublock Origins with a blue on button marked, nevertheless, I can't find where it is and I can no longer find any window showing what it's blocking.

I've read about this in earlier threads, one from 2019, one from 2021.

I would like the Ublock Origins to be visible and also to be showing what it's doing. It used to show a number of hits that would go up with each website that was open, as it was blocking things.

I'm using a win64 windows 10 22H2

The attached picture is of what I'm NOT gettting. It's from a website describing how ublock origins normally looks.

Thank you.

Why oh why is there a necessity for this stupid new sidebar? Every time there is something new, it just takes ages to find a way of getting rid of it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!! martyngs

Hello I do not know what I have done, or how I have managed to do this, but EVERY TIME I start up my Firefox it asks me for my Windows sign-in login details.

I have gone through as many pages within the Firefox settings will allow, and I am unable to find anything that indicates how to turn this option off.

All I am wanting to do is press the Firefox icon, and for Firefox to start up, WITHOUT Firefox asking me for my Windows security login details.

Anybody have an answer for this issue please? I'll GREATLY appreciate any fix recommended to me for this issue.

Best regards to all

Suddenly my Firefox has started coming up in Portuguese. I have reset the default language to English several times with no results. It has to be associated with the recent upgrade. How do I get the default language back to English?

A while back I noticed that my google calendar no longer sends reminders to my gmail (or rather, I suspect, gmail does not receive them). Yesterday I missed an important meeting because of this, so I want to get to the bottom of it. I verified that the reminders are properly set in my calendar, so I have to assume that they are going out. The pop-up windows do pop, so I assume that it is not on the calendar side. I also noted that calendar.google.com and gmail.google.com have the proper permissions to send pop-ups and notifications to gmail, which indicates to me that this end of the equation is working. (Don't know how to isolate the error further, though.) It seems that the Firefox settings need to be changed somehow. Any ideas?

Thank you!

I recently upgraded to the latest version 132.0.2. There's a vertical sidebar on my browser that I would like to remove. I looked into the customize sidebar settings but can't seem to find a way to remove it completely. I've also attached a screenshot. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

Yet another sterling example of why change is usually bad. Why did Firefox, Google and other browsers (though don't know about Duck Duck Go) drop the 100 results per page option? I've always had that enabled and now that it was removed it makes searching extremely tedious and time wasting. Please offer a SIMPLE AND QUICK way to restore this option ASAP. Thank you.

Just installed Firefox for macos Monterey.

On the "Home" tab in preferences, it lets me enter "https://www.bing.com" for the Firefox Homepage. Then for New Tab it lets me select "Firefox Homepage".

However when I open a new tab, I still get Firefox page with a Google search box.

What am I don't wrong? Thx

Hello, The typeface/font size on the browser tabs and booksmarks are TINY, like maybe 4pt font in context. I've seen some solutions posted (and archived) as recently as Sept. 2023 but I've tried dozens of times and they still do nothing. The font size adjustment choices in Mozilla / Firefox settings adjust the font on WEBPAGES themselves, NOT the still-maddening teensy tiny font at the top of the webpage, where it frankly really counts. HELP!

This recently happened on Firefox for my laptop and the characters are broken. I've tried re-installing and removing the files Application Support/Firefox, but the issue still persists. The language is set to English CA. Can anyone help with this please?

When I visit jsonviewer.stack.hu and paste data into the viewer I get the following error:

TypeError: netscape.security.PrivilegeManager is undefined

Please type: "about:config" in your address bar. Then filter by "signed". Change the value of "signed.applets.codebase_principal_support" to true. You should then be able to use this feature.

As config is sensitive area of the settings can you guide through this problem with a fix? Thanks bcoleman@sympatico.ca

The interface for Multi-Account Containers has changed. How do I manage the containers. Specifically, how do I create new containers and delete old, unused ones? Put the Manage Containers button back with the old buttons.
