Firefox-Hilfeforum

Hi, I am able to read a business mag on one Windows 10 Home system but on another which has Win 10 Pro , FF will not allow to STAY logged in to that magazine. I am using Windows 10 Home on the system that will not allow me to stay logged in. I have checked all settings I can think of. I have browsed all the Help Q&A here. I have chcked for all updates and confirm I am using the latest FF updates on both machines.

What could be in my settings that blocks me seeing my magazine?

Thank you. Adam

Hi, to be honest since many years when Firefox get launched i started to use it, until come Chrome but i wasnt too much happy, but to be honest and even when now i have a bran new pc Chrome take lots of resources that firefox doest. Even this way i wish to keep using firefox but i suggest for the next update in firefox add a new feature like the last added in Edge (sleeping tabs) this just put to sleep the unnused tabs to save resources, save ram.

Thanks.

In Firefox, on web pages which contain a mailto: link, clicking on that link automatically opens Thunderbird, with Write: and addressed To: the intended recipient; however, the From: is to my old email address and its related Thunderbird account. This default behavior needs to be fixed so that the From: is correctly filled in with my current email address and its associated Thunderbird account.

I've tried researching this issue from both possible sources; Firefox AND Thunderbird, but none of the knowledge base articles and forum postings related to either program have clearly addressed a solution. At this points it remains unknown which of these programs I need to focus on in order to correct the issue.

Thank you very much in advance for any assistance.

Kind regards,

Kelly

For several months now, my main Yahoo mail tab and also individual email tabs within Yahoo close automatically. It sometimes happens when I'm opening an attachment or switching to another Firefox tab but most of the time it happens randomly

I've turned on the setting in Firefox to get notified before closing a tab and also tried pinning the Yahoo tab but the glitch still happens. I'm not using private mode.

I get a window popping up now and then out of nowhere called 'parent process browser console'.

How can I stop this? I've tried looking at the settings of the window (top right corner), but there is no option to stop it from staying active.

Hello,

Today my Firefox program has crashed again and I thought, now it's time to handle because I am sick of it. What I noticed today is that when I was watching a YouTube video, my monitor screen went black for a second and then came back again, but it turned into green screen of pixels, instead of the actual video. I do not know if this has to do with my GPU (hardware side).

I have had several BSOD with all different stop codes in the past as well, like BAD_POOL_CALLER (most recent) and SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION.

Furthermore, I've also had "SYSTEM THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED what failed:nvlddmkm.sys", "EXCEPTION_ON_INVALID STACK" and "CACHE_MANAGER" stop codes before, but I haven't seen those anymore after formatting my SSD (went back to W10 after so big issue with W11 which caused me to format my SSD, long story).

I used the WhoCrashed program to determine what the stop codes meant, with further detail (dumps are in the attachment). (If this is relevant:) My first ever screenshotted BSOD, of when it started happening like basically every month, was on September 18, with stop code: "ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY, what failed: dxgmms2.sys". I've also checked the Windows\\System32\\DriverStore\\FileRepository for any weird, duplicate or suspicious folders whatsoever.

I have: - Ran MemTest86 (4 passes) - Ran Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool (no issues found) - Ran GPU test (Heaven benchmark 4.0) (GPU temp below 80 degrees (around 60-70C at 21C room temp) (no error codes in device manager > GPU > properties) - Reset this PC (had to cuz W11 just messed everything up and I had to format the SSD, and went to W10 Pro). I was really hoping for this to fix everything, since it removes like literally everything.

My specs: - CPU: R5 2600X - GPU: Gigabyte GTX 1660ti OC - RAM: 2x 2x8gb ram Corsair Vengeance LPX Black 16GB DDR4-3000 CL15 kit - PSU: BitFenix Formula 550 W ATX

Crash reports: bp-764602db-eac3-4a23-98ec-a1b1d0221115 15/11/2022, 13:37 bp-134f610d-d1d1-476e-b7ae-6c8620221110 10/11/2022, 22:56

As you can see, I've done a lot to solve it myself, but the fact I have come this far to get help from this forum tells me that this is something else. Even (third party) anti-malware programs (malwarebytes, adwcleaner, windows defender) haven't found any viruses. If anyone could help me, then I'd really appreciate that.

Hi all,

I am using Firefox 106.0.5 (64 bit). I cannot copy an image from Firefox and paste on to the WhatsApp app. The following steps however work:

• copy the image
• paste to a document editor (MS-Word) or image editor
• copy again
• paste to WhatsApp

Is this an intended change?

HI, Yesterday (Sunday) i backup everything using the sync option. Restarted my computer with a fresh install of windows. Mow when i can to sync again, all of my bookmarks and add-ons etc have gone? Why? Please Help!!!!! Regards Dave

I've written in with this problem before, but got no emailed notification of replies, and don't know how to locate my previous post. The problem has happened again today.

I was running Firefox with four Windows open (fewer than I used to before this problem started happening) and maybe a dozen or more tabs in each window. Suddenly, all four windows disappeared, and when I got Firefox restarted, only three of the windows came back. There was no trace at all of the one I had been using (probably looking at a YouTube video), and the "History" top menu item had the "Recently Closed Windows" tab greyed out. So my window was lost without any trace of ir or of the tabs it contained.   Much like this has happened before, except that on this occasion, the window I was actually using was the one that disappeared. No error messages appear.

I always have Chrome running at the same time, with two windows open. I've not experienced any such problem there.

I'm using a desktop PC with Windows 10. I also have a laptop, similarly configured which has not suffered the same problem. (No Chrome there.) I'm running a paid for version of Avast on both machines.

Hello.

My internet fluctuates constantly while using the Firefox browser. It uses full capacity for 5 seconds, then uses almost 1 mbps internet for the next 5 seconds, then uses full capacity for 5 seconds and so on. I tried a lot of things but it didn't work. I have 100 Mbps internet and connect with 5GHz WI-FI.

Things I've tried:

-Reset Firefox -Run Firefox in troubleshooting mode -Turn off Anti-Virus and Adguard Ad Blocker -DNS flush -Formatting the computer

I don't have such internet fluctuation problem when using it in Microsoft Edge browser. It works seamlessly.

Apart from this, there is another situation that I encountered once, as long as I do not format the computer on which I installed Firefox, this internet fluctuation occurs constantly.

Ever since your last two updates - Nov 4 and 5 - Gmail won't open in Standard View - only in HTML

I'm running Window 10 Pro (64) on a four year old PC

I can get Gmail to load in Standard view if I use Chrome (which I don't like) and in FireFox's Private window but it is inconvenient to have to which back and forth between windows.

I have tried all the fixes everyone a Google has given me but it come to a page that say Do you really want to view in HTML - why not click this button to be taken to Standard View" . I click on that link a page flashes for a millisecond and goes back to the " Do you really want to view in HTML"

I"m at my wits end.

Please help Wendy

Hello,

My version of Firefox started to malfunction.

Found the latest version of Firefox available, and installed it.

Resulted in total loss of data, I lost all bookmarks, passwords, and add-ons.

A folder called "Old Firefox data" was created on my desktop.

Is there still a chance to recover my data?

Why was all data lost?

I am unable to access any websites. For example, Amazon, Belk, Walmart, etc. I have shut the computer down several times to no avail. My wifi is working fine. I am puzzled as to how I was able to access this support site. This has been a problem for at least a week now but I could eventually access websites but this morning I have made numerous attempts to no avail.

MathJax formulas are not displayed correctly in Firefox browser windows, e.g. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=96a0a80d2a&view=lg&permmsgid=msg-f%3A1748952987569305801&ser=1 Windows 10, Firefox 106.0.5 (64 bit) Thanks

Dears, I searched google and youtube, and I changed as many setting on Firefox and Google as I could find, including you own advice:

" Firefox To enable or disable translation in Firefox:

   Open the Firefox menu in the top right of the browser window.
   Click Preferences.
   Click Choose in the Language and Appearance section.
   Select a language to add.
   Click OK."

It does not help! I STILL receive stupid translations from the languages that I have chosen and added. It is extremely annoying...

Looking forward to your urgent help. Thank you in advance, Daiva

I just bought a new computer and signed into my account like normal. Bookmarks won't sync. I've been through about 3 computers over the last year and haven't had any issues till now. I've tried everything I can think of including: reinstall Firefox, sign in and out, reboot, click on sync several times, and nothing. Help! I'm using Windows 11 for the first time. Is that the issue?

Firefox loads only the top line of Facebook, with the Facebook logo, and nothing else. Troubleshoot mode does, after several minutes, load Facebook properly, but only for one session and then it's back to square one for any further sessions. Firefox has no problem, apparently, with any other website I use. Edge browser has no problem with Facebook at all. There is no error message. This problem exists in Windows 10, identically on both my HP desktop and my Lenovo laptop, and started at the same time on both, a couple of days ago.
