Today following a brief power outage I was no longer able to sign in to AOL with Firefox on my desktop computer. I am able to sign in to all other apps with no problem. I tried clearing my cache, restarted Firefox, restarted my computer and spent 30 minutes on remote desktop access assistance with AOL trying to fix the problem with no success. I can log in to my account using Chrome on the desktop computer and can log in with no problem using my Android phone but can't log in using my desktop computer with Firefox. I've verified that my Firefox version is updated. I am running Windows 11 Pro.

I would greatly appreciate any helpful advice.

Every time the browser autofills a password it asks me for my Windows password. I don't want this behavior, as this makes password autofill completely pointless. How do I disable this "feature"?

Google suggestion in Firefox's address bar keep showing Japanese suggestions even though I chose English and Canada as language and location with my google account.

I use same google account with google chrome, but google chrome doesn't show Japanese suggestion.

As for setting on Firefox, I unticked other than "show search suggestions".

How do I resolve it?

Thank you.

I had FF set up with a full page of frequently used link icons. When I ran CCleaner, it caused all of them to disappear. I've tried following the links, but have had no success so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am sitting in hospital with a weird problem. The connection is open and thus not secure. I have successfully connected my 2 android devices, however my Windows Asus laptop is being barred by firefox. I only run firefox. It is a dead end because firefox refuses to allow me to access the net at all. So now I have to get my wife to go and download chrome and see whether that will work. Why can I not override as u understand the risks I also use Norton 360 with its VPN.

My desktop has a line where you search. I do not have the full line. Missing view history saved bookmarks, home,print, settings screen shot. I have a new laptop two days old. The top of the home page look different from what appears on my older desktop. How do I get the full line. Also the very top of the screen says file, edit, view,History, bookmarks, tool and help. I do i get these features?

Unsure if this is correct category... Years ago when Firefox was in it's infancy - Firefox settings used to allow much more power/control over cookies & how you deleted them. You could actually display & select individually ones you wanted to delete. Now Firefox has it's own Interface 'utility' and only allows you to delete 'groups' of cookies based on their App name. I was looking for the location / name of the dataset which is used to store cookies - so I could delete them more finely. Or is this in some sort of special format which is ONLY accessible thru Settings. I see MANY Cookie add-ons, mostly dealing with auto-responding to cookie prompts. Actually as of this writing - I am trying one of these.

Sir, I am unable to add 'Grammarly' in my Firefox browser extension. Every time, the following message appears: "The connection has timed out". Please look into it. Regards

As title. Installed the latest update as soon as i came out. I get the "Welcome to Firefox" tab and the 2nd tab "Firefox Privacy Notice" opened.

The 1st "Welcome" tab, has the box and buttons asking me to import old setting and all that jazz. I have down in quiet a few times and nothing is taken root. I have went through the process of installing all my old addons and extensions, I am not sure how many times, as I use them every time I open my browser to watch Twitch or Youtube, Beyond 20, and what have you. And of course it keeps resetting my toolbar and the bookmarks and settings on my homepage.

I thought at first, it might be buggy and after a day or two it would get fixed an updated. But alas, nothing thus far and this is forcing me to use other craptastic browsers I rather not even have installed on my system.

I have refreshed Firefox a time or two, I uninstalled and reinstalled, but I am afraid to completely wipe it out, as I do not want to lose my bookmarks, passwords, and other saved information, that I probably should not have saved but I do because my memory is "teh suck".

I would appreciate any insight on how tor resolve this issue.

Thanks!

I'm not sure when it started (this week maybe?), but I've been noticing a small graphic appear to the right beside the Firefox icon when I hover over it. The same graphic also appears when hovering over Thunderbird's icon. Does not appear when hovering over any other icon on my task bar. It appears whether I am connected to the internet or not. I ran Malwarebytes latest build antivirus, which found nothing. Any ideas what this graphic is and/or what is it for?

I've made a screenshot, which I'll attach.

Running Firefox 133.0.3 64-bit, on Windows 11 Home (Build 22631.4602) , using DuckDuckGo as the search engine. The version of Thunderbird I'm running is: 128.5.2esr 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900K 3.20 GHz

Yesterday I updated Firefox to version 115.22.0esr this morning when it was released. Have never had any problems viewing video on Netflix but now I am getting Netflix error message F7702-1003. Yesterday I asked "what can I do? I've rebooted computer as Netflix says and it didn't help."

Today, to see if the issue was a bug with version 115.22.0 esr I logged onto both Peacock and Hoopla to try to stream video. On both sites the same thing happened that happened on Netflix. I log into the site, select a video, and when I try to play it I get a message that "widevineCdm plugin has crashed" and video won't play.

Since this problem just appeared after I updated to version 115.22.0 esr it seems likely that there is a bug in this version which is crashing the plugin and preventing streaming video. I note that I can stream some video having checked both YouTube and an online television station.
