i do not care about football, i have never shown any interest in football, why am i getting football related recommendations by the browser

I frequently get a notification that an update failed to install and to install it manually. When checking the update section in the settings I see "Restart Firefox to install update". After restarting, the same section shows "Applying update..." but never finishes. This has been happening for a while and it's becoming very frustrating. Any help is appreciated.

One more thing that may be related: sometimes when launching Firefox, the window will pop up for a split second then close and I have to launch it again. This usually happens on a cold start.

When I start windows 11 on my laptop and open my browser page I no longer have the option to activate my saved passwords. How do I activate my saved passwords manually?

Ctrl key is shrinking my pages , unable to use any shortcuts due to it. Happened just now after the newest update to 152.1. It happens on every page. Also Login drop-down won't stay open long enough to select anything, it open and immediately closes.

Since the last update when I go to YouTube and I choose my Home or YouTube icons so I can watch videos I will see the list of videos they are offering for just a flash and then they disappear. I still have all the things across the top and down the left side of my screen that YouTube always shows, but there are no videos to be seen. It's just white space. After turning off different items in my Malwarebytes to see if it was a problem with them (which it did not seem to be), I decided to try YouTube on Safari to see if it was a FireFox issue. YouTube worked perfectly on Safari. I've been looking through settings to try and figure this out, but I'm having no luck. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Everytime I open firefox, a small window opens that tells me "Update available Download the latest version of firefox, Download or Dismiss". Hitting download saves the update for ver 151.0.4 to my harddrive. I have several of these files because of all the times I've updated forgetting that its already been updated to 151.0.4!

Why do you keep asking me to upgrade when I already did?

To get here I went to "mozilla support" and I clicked the box requesting you send me an email when someone replies to this. This "someone" implies that this person is part of your "community" not a mozilla employee, which is what "mozilla support" implies. After taking my time to follow your vague directives, I dont expect to get any help from you but I am hopeful.

I tried adding images which took me away from this page and when I tried coming back to this page, everything I typed was gone so I had to start over. So I'm not going to click on "share data" for the fear the same thing will happen. Thanks for that

I have gone to Menard's several times and have tried to open a dog kennel item so I could see it bigger and in a single item view. Nothing happens when I click on it like it did before this last update!!!!!!!!!!! I get so tired of these program people change so much that i mess up how a person had used the software before they mucked it all up!!!!!!! In the last week I had the Firefox update, and two others an all of them have been changed so drastically nothing works like it did before the updates. MY REQUEST IS LEAVE IT THE SAME AND DON'T MESS WHEN HOW WE HAVE BEEN USING THE PROGRAM UNLESS WE WANT THE NEW UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am using Firefox on Ubuntu Linux. When I open WhatsApp Web, it does not work correctly. The page may not load properly or login does not complete. I have tried refreshing the page, clearing cache and cookies, and restarting Firefox, but the issue remains. Please help me troubleshoot this problem.

On one frequently used website "objectremover.com", Firefox always fails to load the site, giving this error message "This page couldn’t load, Reload to try again, or go back." There is never any indication of why the page could not be loaded. We are on Windows 7 and extended Firefox release. This site could always be loaded in Firefox until one of the most recent updates. This problem has happened on more than one of our computers, yet the site always loads without a problem on Chrome. If this is caused by one of my settings being too strict, is there a way to put in an exception for this site?

Dear reader,
