Ok this latest UI appearance change is absolute dog feces. I hate it so much! It's so ugly! How do I change it back? I did not consent for my eyeballs to be assaulted like this. Did I mention it sucks? How do I change it back? 157.0.0.11

Hi, I’m using Firefox [version] on Windows [10/11]. When I try to download MP3 files from a web tool (I was using Spotload to save music for offline listening), the download either doesn’t start, shows “failed”, or the file is blocked.

Firefox version: [likho] What happens: [download start nahi hota / “failed” aata hai / file khali hai] Tried so far: restarted Firefox, checked download settings, disabled extensions, tried a different folder.

How can I fix this?

I'd like to find addons for Dropbox. To work as much as possible with moving files to other cloud storeges, and also to save files on Dropbox. I'd really appreciate if anyone can recommend something that works... :-) I'm living in Stockholm-Sweden and it starts gettin to cold to be outdoors. Hope someone comes back to me with something good.

Best Regards to all of you. ✌

How do I recover the normal additional toolbar in firefox that shows options for maps, images, videos etc. This toolbar is no longer shown on firefox - perhaps it's because firefox has recently been updated and no longer gives that facility?

I started noticing that Firefox was giving me a lot of "not responding" freezes the past couple of weeks. The past couple of days I basically cannot access Firefox at all - constant, immediate freezing. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling (multiple times), disabling hardware acceleration, running troubleshooter mode (still freezes! if it opens at all!), deleting profiles, restarting my computer, etc. I've done just about everything I can find online about this issue. Nothing has worked. I have no issues with Chrome or Edge.

Any suggestions??

I recently updated my Firefox to v158 from v156, and now the text colors of some of the UI elements on a new tab (e.g. Firefox wordmark, web shortcuts, Recent Activity header) which were previously white, have been changed to black (or a color close to black).

I use a custom wallpaper for new tabs, which didn't alter these particular colors on v156. Switching the background in the Customize menu shows the white text on some of the default wallpapers and the dark text on others. I have attached example screenshots to show how these elements looked before and after the update. I used the Developer Tools console to do this.

I assume this has to do with the "modernized" Nova UI redesign (which I have disabled) Mozilla is now forcing on its userbase instead of making it optional. Reverting these properties via the Developer Tools console does not make them permanent. I would rather not have to change my current wallpaper if I can help it.

Is there any other way I can make the text white again without changing the background or downgrading? Or if I can make them permanent with the console?

The option to Pin an extension to the toolbar in the browser is no longer available anywhere in firefox.

I can unpin them at will. But the only way to pin to the toolbar again is to remove the extension and select "pin to toolbar" when it's readded to firefox.. Trouble is that my other computers see I removed it sometimes and remove it there but when they readd the extension to firefox they are not pinned on that computer. and there is no way to get it pinned.

this happens with all extensions and once they are unpinned I'm only able to remove the extension from firefox and readd it to get a stupid option to repin it.

please fix this.

It is really sad that there is no way to contact mozilla directly The update installed on my Windows 7 64 bit is now storing cookies for Proton Mail and that makes the storage amt increase from 29Kb to 78Kb and I am not happy that I can not find a way to remove or revert the update so detail steps to complete that process would be nice. As for my future use of Firefox and involvement with Mozilla I am very seriously considering NO further use of both and your claims are starting to become lies you are permitting tracking in my view of this behavior Community Members should not be dealing with these concerns GET OFF your lazy back side Mozilla

Dear Mozilla Team,

As a loyal and long-time user of Firefox and Mozilla products, I am writing to you today with a heartfelt appeal regarding a critical issue facing internet users in Turkey.

While I am glad to see that built-in VPN features have been successfully rolled out in various countries worldwide, it is deeply concerning that this feature is notably unavailable in Turkey. In recent years, Turkey has experienced severe restrictions on freedom of expression, heavy censorship, and increasing limitations on human rights.

In this challenging environment, people—especially the youth and those striving to keep up with global knowledge, science, and civilization—rely heavily on an open and unhindered internet to maintain their connection with the wider world. Unfortunately, authoritarian administrations actively seek to silence these voices and isolate societies.

As a steadfast champion of privacy, security, and an open internet, Mozilla has always stood on the side of users. Turkish users are in dire need of built-in VPN support to bypass these heavy restrictions and reclaim their fundamental digital rights.

I sincerely hope that Mozilla will hear our voices, recognize our urgent need, and take steps to make the built-in VPN available in Turkey as well. Thank you for your dedication to a free and open web for everyone.

Best regards,

Brusky A long-time Firefox user from Turkey

With the new FF 157.0.1 (64-bit) it seems the download icon in the toolbar is now purple. I want this back to the old colour but have no idea how to do this. Why was this changed, because the colour hurts my eyes.

BTW .. using FF on Windows 11 (25H2)

Thanks, Matthijs
