When uploading files with Firefox, I click the upload button, and the file browser window appears to upload files.

For as long as I can remember, it always defaulted to the last folder location that I uploaded a file, but just a few days ago, it stopped working, and always defaults to my home folder.

How can I make the upload window pop up, default to the last uploaded location? My OS is Linux Mint Cinnamon.

the top bar in the browser is so small it is hard to read and i find it difficult to access the icons. increasing the value of "layout.css.devPixelsPerPx" increased the browser text but did not affect the top bar. Is their another approach or is their a magnifier the will work. Thanks.

Please remove and do not add any AI/ML features to Firefox, it's the only mainstream browser of this kind left, i was planning on buying some merch but I don't think this company deserves my money if it tries to make cash off me in an insidious way either way

When viewing a PDF in Firefox the URL bar indicates the file was downloaded to a temporary folder. If I then select "Save" from the PDF toolbar; or if I right click and select "Save page as" it opens a save dialog to the location I previously saved the same category of PDF to. For example I have separate folders for invoices, if the PDF is my electricity invoice it somehow knows and opens the electricity folder. If it is a water invoice, it automatically opens the water folder.

Whilst this is indeed quite handy, I do not understand how Firefox is doing this; nor do I understand whether this may be a privacy risk in some circumstances and should therefore be configurable.

I am using Linux Mint, firefox and "Reiner SCT" hardware to sign in to german government sites using my identity card. All worked fin until firefox update from 149.0.2 to 150.0. Now I always get the error message "internal_error". I know, this message does not help much, but that is all I have. Is there anything I can try to get firefox 150.0 running or shoud I try to deinstall firefox 150.0 an install firefox 149.0.2 again? Thanks very much in advance!

Since a few days (last week of April), when I go to Amazon Prime Video, once I log in, the thumbnail no longer display (see attached screenshot). However, when I arrive on Prime, before logging in, the thumbnails are there (but they might be actual images and not thumbnails). As soon as I log in, all thumbnails disappear and all I have is a text (might be the Alt-Text option for images).

It was working fine over the past weekend. I had a Firefox update at the beginning of the week. I think it somehow messed up my settings.

I tried several things: - clear cash (it clears everything when I close Firefox) - used different privacy settings (was at Strick) - added www.primevideo.com as exception in the privacy settings - was always use private window - had not installed any extension nor plugins - DMR was ON - most of every options were set to OFF or disabled

I tried to reinstall it through Snap Ubuntu 24.04 and it worked but the next day, the problem was back.

I installed Crome and out of the box, the thumbnails are there.

Since yesterday Firefox stopped working with Crunchyroll and Hidive and says, "Firefox is installing components needed to play the audio and video on this page. Please try again later."

150.0.1 (64-bit) Bazzite Linux 6.19.14-ogc1.1.fc44.x86_64 bazzite-gnome-nvidia-open:stable v44.20260501.1 Widevine plugin is version 4.10.2934.0.

Additionally, I've disabled extensions as well, cleared the cache. I've disabled play DRM content and restarted the browser before turning it back on. I've changed from my own dns server which I see nothing being blocked to google public dns and saw no difference. Everything was working fine on Wednesday night and stopped on Thursday.

I want my Mozilla VPN to load at boot time of my computer. It is selected as such in the settings (preferences) window.

Mozilla VPN is otherwise functioning correctly.

I have tried to shut down my computer both with the VPN on and off but it makes no difference. It does not load at startup.

Thank you.

Hi.

I am running Firefox 149.0.2 on Arch Linux (Linux 6.19.12-arch1-1 (x86_64)). I have configured Firefox to use the "~/downloads" folder for downloads instead of the default "~/Downloads". I have also checked the "Clear cookies and site data every time you close Firefox" box in the "Privacy & Security" tab of the settings page, and configured the History settings to "Never remember history".

The Downloads folder I have set is indeed respected by Firefox: all files I download are saved to "~/downloads". However, every time I close Firefox it creates a folder entitled "Downloads" (with a capital "D") on my home folder. I do not want this folder to be created.

This really looks like a bug from my perspective, but is there some way yo fix this via the "about:config" tab? Thanks for the attention.

There must be a way to turn off this popup off. This is REALLY annoying when it covers a password box and to remove it i must click outside it and I lose focus on the password box. If you must put he box there then at least leave the first part of the password box clear so I cab click on it and not have to click again to get the focus back.

Please forgive me if this question was already answered and that I might have accidentally overlooked that answer.

I'm running Firefox 144.0 (64-bit) under Debian 13 (linux).

I want to configure Firefox to never restore any previous session when it starts up, irrespective of how Firefox was last exited.

Even if a running Firefox session was externally killed via some sort of system command or because of a reboot, I never, never, never, never, never, never, never, NEVER (!!!) want it to restart in any previous session.

I ALWAYS (!!!) want Firefox to launch with its default start page, no matter what.

I tried all of the suggestions that I have found on line about how this might be accomplished, but with each one of them, there are cases where the previous session was restored.

I repeat, I do NOT (!!!) EVER (!!!) want the previous session to be restored, under any circumstances.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions, and again, please accept my apology if this has been answered and I overlooked that answer.

When I try to save a file, if the target exists, Firefox defaults to overwriting. I'd rather it default to cancel. At least it works this way in Linux. It defaults to cancelling in Windoze.

I thanks you for giving me the ability to use use firefox wihtout AI (by turning it off in the setting, you did it, love you, love you, love you), so really I can't use AI, I don't use regular trnslation that AI enable like google traduction, and chatgpt etc.., I see from my use of them start, the soft skills go very below, they really kill my soft skills I am trying to avoid them as much as possible, and thank you for giving me a choise,

I have my personal account with my personal email setup in both my home PC and laptop. I want to setup a new user profile linked to a work email to hold those passwords and bookmarks separately, and be able to sync it when using my laptop as well. I would also like to be able to have both accounts open at the same time in different windows (i.e. a "work window" with the work account, and a "personal window" with my personal account)

Is this possible? How would I go about it? I looked around the about:profiles tab, but that seems to only configure profiles for my already logged in account (the personal one). I think that what I should do is create a new firefox account with my work email and give that account a profile, but I don't know if I can be logged in to 2 accounts at the same time, and I'm not sure Firefox will show me both profiles at startup, or only the ones linked to the currently logged in account. I haven't tried this because I'm unsure if I could lose my currently open tabs.
