new update destroyed old firefox look i love those old sqarish tabs please give us option to switch back to old firefox look, themes, styles... in settings, i dont see it anywhere, the tabs were perfect like they were new look of tabs is horrible (at least to me) is there some way to return to old look. Ai said to me to play around with a userChrome.css file but i still cant get the old look no matter how much i try, it gets worse and worse, worst case scenario is it possible to send me a css file of old tabs / toolbar look or something i feel like someone moved every single furniture in my home, the feeling is terrible. new icons are okay but old toolbar and even search bar is better in older version, i loved more the old look why is there no option to revert back to old theme look i used for years.

Firefox just forced a terrible update on me that makes everything look round and different and I hate it so much. I don't understand why they think people want things to change all the time instead of being allowed to get familiar with something and now have it change on you without even asking if you want it to change!

Firefox on desktop crashed. When it crashed, it deleted the Google email account I use to login for many sites. When I tried to retrieve that account, Google responded that it is deleted and the name cannot be reused.

Is there any way to resurrect a session from, say, 5 hours ago.

How could you change my tab bar to this awful rounded, non-dark, purple orange gradient with atrocious looking outlines?

Why would you change something that has worked for years. Please bring back square tabs. Even in compact mode the tabs still look terrible and there's no option to put this back.

How could you do this? I'm having reading my tab bar at this point with the gradient. I shouldn't have to install third party add-ons or themes to make it work like it has for years.

The text of selected tab if I set on Light mode is white when widget.windows.mica and browser.theme.windows.accent-color-in-tabs.enabled flags on about:config are turned on. This only fix if I switch to dark mode.

This bug even exist prior to Firefox 157 release, where Nova UI refresh was available but disabled by default.

Hi, I recently opened my browser and noticed that all the tabs are now rounded instead of rectangular. I'd like to restore them to their original appearance, but I can't find anywhere how to do it.

When I login to a site where there are many widgets (windows) on the screen - the windows are all missing scroll bars. If I login under a different browser they are there. This happened about a week or so ago. It has to be a setting change in Firefox. Please advise.

With latest update (and without my say-so), the background color of my bookmark list is purple (with white print). I have not gotten used to it and find it distracting. I'd like to go back to the way it was (white background with black print). I cannot find the setting to change. Thanks for reading and any suggestions.

So PDF's can no longer be set to open in Adobe, but it now requires clicking before the document opens in Adobe. No setting whatsoever can change this. Is this a permanent setting? Will have to move to another browser now. What a hassle. Got to move bookmarks, set up home pages etc. Ugh. Bey Firefox....

Actually, I believe the aspect of a browser that should not be changed casually is the UI that users interact with while browsing, such as tabs and sidebars. Any changes to configurable UI elements are acceptable, but Firefox should now refrain from altering the UI and instead focus entirely on fixing bugs and optimizing performance. The UI represents the face of a browser, and constantly changing it not only fails to attract new users but also neglects the needs of existing ones.

I need to bookmark a previously bookmarked site in a different folder and retain the original where it was. I use a temporary folder for bookmarks, then save them later to related folders. A "duplicate" warning is no problem as long as it keeps the existing bookmark where it was purposly saved. In short, let me have duplicate bookmarks for the same site! Seems to me that older Firefox versions allowed this.

First the laggy, extremely slow issue was just noticed on YouTube. Now I notice it on Rumble and other sites. For now, I have to abandon Firefox and use an alternative browser. I've stayed with you for years. Maybe it's time to part ways. I really like your browser. But, it has become nearly non-functional for me.

Hi, since the latest update, whenever I'm in a tab (e.g. email or personal website) and I go to upload files, all tabs show the last location of the last upload from any tab whereas previously they showed the location of the relevant tab. E.g. on a tab for my website it would previously open the location of my website files and if I switch to my email tab it would open the location of my email attachments. Now it doesn't seem to remember the loaction by individual tab it just starts in the location of the used loaction across all tabs.

Not sure if that makes sense, it's very annoying as I have to keep searching the location again between tabs.

Can this be changed back please so it remembers locations on a individual tab basis and not globally?

Thanks

For some reason, Firefox is all messed up . Happened suddenly. Some sites are blocked and says " ⚠ Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com"

But I'm not using Strict mode. Standard is set.

Or Malewarebytes will block the site and I have to click Continue.

Or in Yahoo.com, Yahoo is written in big black letters on top, and as I scroll down, there's nothing but empty boxes, all on a white background.

No, this is not happening on Chrome. All is normal.

What is going on?

Hi Team, I am facing an issue that i have setup the download setting of PDF file as save file and automatically download in my system. but firfox is not working as expected.

In the new update, the gradient is mandatory which is okay fine, probably will be themes that revert that, but tabs are floating buttons.

It's not the end of the world, but it's something that is both completely illogical (since they're tabs, they're linked with the window below them — they are TABS, like in a pocket phone book or office file), and visually confusing.

And they're now even more weakly highlighted (there is in fact NO highlighting, only a tiny outline), it's difficult to discern which tab is active. It was already a bit hard on dark themes in recent versions.

I think these are not just knee-jerk reactions, like "make it like it was", although I admit there is a part of it there. But even taking a step back, how does this improve the experience? I can't see which tab is active, the coloring is non-uniform across the wide window so it's even harder, and the tabs do not connect to their window.

Running Windows 10 (have extended security updates). Starting at version 153.0 Firefox hangs (spinning cursor) until Windows realizes it is not responding and lets me stop the program. Seems to be independent of the website (even happened on a Mozilla page). Have tried a couple of 153.xx updates and also 154 but behaves the same. On a Dell Inspiron 7570:

Hi! Recently firefox got updated with new design and it looks good but the only thing i hate is how rounded it looks like now. I dont really like that my whole browser is just that much round now. Can i get back to cubes with rounded corners somehow?
