Just curious, how long does it take to get a firefox upgrade/update through Microsoft store? Firefox 118 came out on 9/26/23 and is nowhere to be found through the Microsoft store a day later on 9/27/23.

All my search results now use google, thanks to the FORCED installation of the search engine google. Even after I have deleted it and deleted it and deleted it and deleted it and deleted it, ALL SEARCH RESULTS ARE NOW FROM GOOGLE, whether I like it or not. Mozilla has FORCED A COMPLETELY BROKEN SEARCH ENGINE ON MY PC(google), and now i can't rid of it, AND THEY ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO HELP ANYONE.

My dual monitor system is now requiring me to double click Firefox to work in that add on monitor... WHY ??? .. Has something changed that now makes me click on Firefox twice to be able to access it on my add on monitor ? I have MS Edge running on the primary laptop monitor and Firefox on the larger add on monitor and lately, I have to select the Firefox browser twice before ' focus ' seems to respond.

I have found many sites that work better with one or the other browsers and have my email and a few others on my larger add on monitor operating under Firefox but something seems to have changed and the delay is a hassle since I manage many different sites as a national admin for the United States Minutemen - American Patriots Coalition.

Is there some setting either in Firefox or the Windows 11 operating system that can eliminate that issue ?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I used to build my own version of the ' Nightly Firefox ' distribution many years ago but have too many other ' irons in the fire ' anymore.

I was uninstalling another app when I noticed that there are two application icons for Firefox, one dated 3/25 2023 and one dated 9/26/2023 (just installed new update). How do I get rid of the first application dated 3/25/2023?

MacBook Pro (2015) just died. So many crucial tabs that I always save by restoring previous session. Any way to retrieve this??? Does it live somewhere online or in the bowels of the hard drive available for extraction???

My internet provider is changing shortly and I need to change my email. I cannot make a change to my primary email in my Firefox account, which I would need to do. What am I missing?

Every time I update firefox, the same thing happens. In the past you have disregarded my issue.

I have four Gmail accounts. I'll call them A, B, C and D at gmail com.

When I update firefox, it signs me out of all my Gmail accounts. When I laboriously sign back in, I'll start with A. I sign in and get my most recent emails. Then I sign into B. When I click on the inbox, I get A's gmail, not B.s When I sign into C, and click on the inbox, I get A's gmail, not C's. When I sign into D, and click on the inbox, I get A's gmail.

THis happens in both bookmarks as well as normal sign in.

I've complained aobut this before and you have told me I am imagining things. I am not, and it's why I seldom update firefox.

WHY are you doing this, Why have you not fixed it in the several years I've had firefox and HOW DO I GET IT FIXED.

I use an IRS web site to pay taxes. I can not get in. It says I have to use a browser with TLS1.1 or 1.2. Dose firefox use this. If not how can I get it?

Thanks Galen Alldrin

Now, A reply from "Paul" said this is a google issue and it is not. I have 3 gmails and I can't open one of my email accounts using Firefox but I can open it through Microsoft Edge. I have emailed Google about this so far I have been ignored so, when I discovered that it would open through Edge and Chrom this told me it's an issue with Firefox not google and the problem started with the last firefox update. So, I already know it's not an issue with google and I have no problem with my other email accounts just the one.

I have started doing research on Vietnam Veterans using the online Coffelt database (coffeltdatabase.org). The search results pages often provide links to supporting documents, but I am not able to open them in the Firefox browser. However, I am able to open them when using the Edge browser. I prefer Firefox and would like to know if there is a setting adjustment I could make to fix the issue. Thanks.

Hello,

I need help i'm using polish language always on many websites.

When i typing letter "ó" which using key combination Right ALT+O always my brower opening "Open file" dialog window. this is annoying always.

Many sites write that it can not be changed?

Why does the browser open this dialog with this shortcut when there is another shortcut for it? Ctrl+O. Why two another shortcut doing te same job?

I have restarted Firefox to no avail. I wish not to uninstall and re-install as I have several important bookmarks I don't want to get rid off.

This one download keeps persisting. When I click the x, nothing happens. When I try to cancel it, nothing happens. It doesn't make any progress and doesn't do anything else aside from prevent me from downloading other files. It is really beginning to stress me out.

Please help.

I am running Firefox-112.0(64bit) on Debian Bullseye. When I pend Firefox I am presented with a blank page rather that my normal sign in page.

Opening a terminal window and starting Firefox with /opt/firefox/firefox generates the following errors:

comp@AbNormal:~$ /opt/firefox/firefox [GFX1-]: glxtest: VA-API test failed: no supported VAAPI profile found. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by environment. [ERROR glean_core] Error setting metrics feature config: Json(Error("EOF while parsing a value", line: 1, column: 0))

If I enter a URL the page opens and is usable.

How can this problem be fixed?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I was using Firefox for many years . Recently I noticed that all my passwords in Firefox were gone and it seems like my account was recreated but all the historical passwords were missing. I was under the impression that those passwords are backed-up somewhere and that I can retrieve them. Could you advise how to recover my logins I collected in Firefox over the years pls.?
