Hello, I want to open a PDF directly from Firefox - the university makes several uploads via the official website and in order not to waste time, I would like to click on it to open the PDF, it would already be opened. I already checked the box to remember my choice, but I always have to. I will be very happy with the help! :) #TakeCare

scroll bar - how to change the alternative super thin scroll bar back to the default scroll bar?

Recently, I was on a web page and did something that caused the scroll bar to change from the default scroll bar to a super thin scroll bar with no up or down arrows at the top and bottom of the scroll bar. How do I make this page look like the default?

Good day

Will Firefox with the npapi plugin installed, block Flash from dec 31 or will there be a possibility to keep using Flashplayer material in 2021 but unsupported?

Kind regards, Thomas

I want to change text encoding so it defaults to Unicode. If I use the [alt] key then the View tab I can change it from Western but it reverts back after closing the page. Sometimes that does not work because the Text Encoding option in the View tab is greyed out. The About Firefox window says I am up to date with 83.0 (64bit).

Hi,

I tried to remote control firefox with the Selenium WebDriver and Java fio testing purposes. This ended in some instances of crashed or otherwise leftover running instances of the geckodriver.

I restarted my computer (Win 10) and started Firefox (no remote software started this time).

And now, whenever I start Firefox, it says it is remotely controlled (Robot icon / Orange bar).

How can I start Firefox in un-controlled mode again (so that ie: I can login into google again)?

(Addons = none) Thanks for help.

My plain Firefox Browser search page is recently changed to a colored page with Microsoft Bing - I do not know how or why this changed happened - how do I remove it and return to the original plain page.

Why doesn't the import bookmarks function work in firefox? I've tried importing my bookmarks via an html file and directly from other browsers. It doesn't work. The page doesn't move; It just remains blank. I would be very grateful for any help.

Thank you.

When will option browser.urlbar.maxRichResults work as it used to?

I want about 30 - i.e. a full screen's-worth of Rich Results. No problem once - not now.

Something is seriously FUBAR when a once-working parameter can be changed - but no longer has any effect.

Nothing to do with Top Sites, I believe. I know how to change the balance of what is offered.

I just want parameter browser.urlbar.maxRichResults to work again.

Is there some way to disable Ctrl + Shift + Q without installing 3rd party software? Most of the key mapping extensions contain security warnings.

I find myself constantly frustrated that a "destructive" action like quit has been put so closely beside a productive option like cycle back a tab. The combination of having Ctrl + Shift + Q beside Ctrl + Shift + Tab is quite obnoxious on a QWERTY keyboard. I would like to try map this to something that makes more sense like Ctrl + Shift + E or Ctrl + Alt + Q.

I'm running Firefox 82.0.3.

When I initially set up Firefox Monitor, I added 5 email addresses to this service.

After a couple of weeks I would like to add another email address. However, I am not able to find a field to add a new email address.

When going to monitor.firefox.com and logging in, all I can see is the dashboard showing numbers of email addresses and breaches. The button to manage email addresses only leads to a page where I can delete the existing addresses, but not inserting a new one.

Maybe it is just too obvious and I'm blind. Please help.

Hello,

I am not sure if this has been asked or not. My question is this for the bookmarks toolbar drop downs, the color is grey, which I have trouble reading sometimes. Is there anyway to change that color to make it a darker background? Are there any other options out there to change to color scheme even just a black background with white lettering?

Thanks.

somehow bing has become the default search engine. I have followed the directions on how to change it but nothing works. Currently under search Google is set as default but bing won't go. Am I missing something here? Bing is crap. I would like to get Google back. Any suggestions? Thanks Bob
