When opening Firefox for the first time after turning system on for the day, Firefox has for some reason opening a separate window With this address: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/avg-online-security/?src=external-app-newtab-store I do use AVG as my anti-viral program but am not interested in using this add-on. I have looked in Firefox setting, and can see no way to stop it. Do you have any ideas, PLEASE? I will try to add a screenshot of the screen for you to view, if that helps!! THANK you!!

The last update 113.0.1 was when I really noticed it being slow. None of the current suggestions have any effect. I have restarted several times, cleared cookies and history, flushed dns and have gone through all settings. Privacy is set at "standard" and not using a VPN and have turned off add blockers with no effect either. I have to check, but I don't think I have any add-ons except for color on home page.

If I do a speed test, ping is kinda slow, download is half what it should be at times, and every test shows ZERO upload all using several sites to test from . The only thing not done is shutting down av which I won't do. Anyone else seeing this issue? Any other suggestions than the go-to stuff here? Windows 10

When clicking on a redirect (Get recipe) to a new tab in the Bon Appetite site, Firefox causes a BSOD. No other browser does this. ver 113.2 64 Bit. (Reinstalled) No extensions in effect. Computer: I9 with 32 gigs DDR4 and terabytes of open space. Graphics: Radeon RX 580 - 8G All drivers up to date. VRam tested with OCCT

The big thing here is, NO other browser has this issue. I have whittled down system error logs to only DCom and LSA errors.

Any real help would be appreciated!

After I boot my system I am not able to open Firefox as it complains about an open instance. After around half a minute the file disappears on its own.

Deleting the lock file manually works for starting firefox, but seems to sometimes delete my cookies as well.

The issue is not reproducible by just logging out and in again.

I've just noticed whilst writing a blog on wordpress that my firefox built in spellchecker is no longer working. It no longer works on wordpress. It no longer works on any other page, including this one. Here is an example sdhflakshfldfjl - included in the files below. Thanks in advance.

The old PC is dead, there is no back-up/export of the saved passwords and no sync. I can only access the disk content when connected to another PC. Where and in which files are the Firefox saved passwords stored in and can I see them or import them in the new installation?

I find out how to hide images while loading the website on Firefox 102.0 but what I also want is to hide the SVG icons on the website. How can I do it? Thanks in advance

Why again? After I reboot my pc and re-install firefox, I re-install back the Google Translate (GT) extension, it's not working like las time anymore.

It used to be I just press translate the entire website will auto translate..now after i reboot my pc and re-download latest Firefox, ur GT extension turned into shit. I add-on this extension 'To Google Translate by Juan Escobar' ...i use on the Chrome, no problem, I can translate the entire website. but I added back the same extension 'To Google Translate by Juan Escobar' in your Firefox it's different! WHY IS THAT? Pls view attachment. It used to be the same with firefox...what happened after the re-download to the latest version Firefox after rebooting my pc?

Hi,

I just installed Firefox on my Mac and log in on the account. On new windows device it was always downloading all the addons and importing settings etc.

On Mac I just logged in and nothing happend. Like no any import was made. No any add-on was installed automatically.

Do I have to install everything manually?

Previously FF used only on Windows

Recently , I would say within the last month or so, all the sudden when a site asks for my username and password I cannot use autofill. With Firefox as the auto fill provider or a 3rd part tool password program like Biwarden. For a while this worked like a charm but what happens is this username and password fields come up on a webpage. At the bottom I see firefoxes prompt and Bitwardens prompt to select a username. I can do this in both but when I click on the username nothing happens. I have uninstalled both and reinstalled made each a provider etc... This does not happen with Chrome

This feature and this feature alone has me thinking of just leaving Firefox first the revamp with mobile. Got used to it, now this, sorry but this is a deal breaker.

I am using a OnePlus n10 5g on Metro. Updated as updated can get I am at a loss here but auto fill has be ome useless in Firefox.

Any ideas???

I am on a unstable internet connection and while trying to download a large file it gets often interrupted. By default Firefox deletes the .part file and I am forced to again download from zero. Is there a config that I could change so Firefox keeps .part files so I could continue resuming the interrupted download?

Dear all,

I add to reinstall windows, and every software including firefox.

Previously I checked that my datas were proprely sync.

I just finished the firefox installation, but the sync does not find any of my previous datas... T.T

Any idea please ?

Kind regards,

Thomas

I'm running Firefox 113.02 on Windows 10 22H2 OS Build 19045.2965 on an older HP Laptop.

In trying to resolve an issue with another app, their help desk suggested that I needed to start Firefox fresh with a new profile, that the profile I was using might be causing the problem. My first step was to save and rename the profile that I was using before proceeding, then I proceeded as instructed. I don't know how to revert to the old, saved profile. Articles that I've read discussed too many variables confusing me ; so I'm here to ask help from the community.

The reason that I want to revert is because I lost add-ons that made my browsing life better. I failed to make a note of those add-ons, some of which I've been using for so long that I've lost awareness of them. Bookmarks have also been scrambled and lost. If it matters, I've run Firefox today using the new profile that is missing things I want and need. If browsing today added anything to the profile I will happily do without it to get my old profile settings and pointers back.

I can see the profile that I renamed and saved when I enter about:profiles. I also see several other profiles. I infer that the last profile in the list is the current and default profile, but I'm not certain; so maybe that question should be my second. My first question is can I revert to the old profile? When I see the old, renamed and saved profile, it does not appear with a button to make it the default.

From what I've read, my understanding is that I have to make the saved profile the active and/or default profile so that it will be used by Firefox each time Firefox is reloaded. Do I also have to rename it?

Help will be greatly appreciated and gratefully received.

Just recently been experiencing the 400 Bad Request error on Kick.com (a live streaming platform) for about a couple hours now. Never had any issues prior.

Was informed that this same issue is happening on other browsers and the only solution is a "quick fix" (clear site cookies) which only works for literally a second. When the page is reloaded the error message pops back up.

Please help, thank you!

5eagle: Is there any possibility that the question 'How do I turn OFF FireFox as Default Browser' could be answered? This thread was archived, without conclusion, it seems cor-el Top 10 Contributor Moderator was/is unwilling/unable to provide a solution/answer [2021 ish]. Like 'Shucks ' I would like to 'Turn OFF FireFox as Default Browser' I did not enable via settings so must have missed the opportunity to deselect when installed. If not possible to turn off please advise and I will uninstall and use another. 05 June 2023.

What's the best easiest way to translate my website https://invivobio.net/ in different language. We have different countries visitors so I want to check/translate my English content in different languages after publishing them, so it will be understandable for me and visitors to check the language, is that correct?

Can anyone suggest me Mozilla Firefox Extension which translate perfect because I leave Google Chrome due to slow browsing. I am enjoying Mozilla for the long time, so I don't want to move back to Chrome.

Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.
