Firefox Community Forum

The goal is to avoid Google. Copilot advise me to under Security, to uncheck the box "Block dangerous and deceptive content". Is that advisable - should I comply?

Hello,

In Firefox (up to date), the “module” (right-click) that allows for direct translation is great, and I want to thank you for it.

However, do you plan to keep the “Windows 98-style” stamp-like format of the dialog box that opens for much longer? In 2026, on 27-inch screens, it’s honestly very annoying—even if you can zoom in just a tiny bit, it’s a pointless step and not ergonomic at all! It’s the little details like this that make us look elsewhere!

Thank you in advance for your understanding!

I have been having issues where I am unable to access the website: www.loki.ch. This is the web site for a Swiss railway magazine. I have always been able to access it previously, but haven't used it now for a few months. However this week when I've tried, I'm blocked access to it (see the attached screen shots). I do note that since I had previously access the web site, there have been updates to Firefox. However, when trying to use either Edge or Google Chrome, they also block me, but just say that unable to access the web site, nothing mentioned about being "Not Secure" as Firefox does. It's not a web site where you have to log in and/or use passwords. Contacting the magazine by Facebook messenger yields no response from them. Posting the issue on a Facebook group, other users have responded that they can access it (one was from Slovenia and the other in the UK). One mentioned issues from Australia where I am. It's not a dangerous or suspect web site, simply a magazine about Swiss Model Trains. I have tried adjusting settings to exempt it in Settings - no change. Not a anti virus issue. None of the suggestions in the FAQ have exactly the same scenario in the screen shots attached.

Surely there has to be some way to bypass whatever is in Firefox Security preventing me from accessing this web site?

Greetings...

I successfully deleted the new weather widget that appears at the top right of my Firefox homepage but the horizontal space at the top of my homepage remains. I followed all of the steps (3) to delete the weather widget but none of them also deleted the horizontal space. As a result, there is a wide white top "margin" that appears on my homepage, below which the customary Firefox graphic logo appears.

On my Firefox homepage, I have three rows of shortcuts that now appear lower on the homepage and a vertical scroll bar now appears on the right side of the homepage. Before the new weather widget appeared on my homepage, the three rows of shortcuts were vertically centered on the homepage, without the need for a vertical scroll bar to appear.

Either there is a way that the horizontal space at the top of my homepage can be deleted, or I will have to resort to creating a custom HTML webpage containing my shortcuts.

Please advise which solution will resolve this problem. Thank you very much for your time and feedback.

Take care...

I ran the commands listed in the instructions for installing Mozilla VPN with Linux and I got the following error after running the following command:

pub/{getline; gsub(/^ +| +$/,""); if($0 == "35BAA0B33E9EB396F59CA838C0BA5CE6DC6315A3") print "\nThe key fingerprint matches ("$0").\n"; else print "\nVerification failed: the fingerprint ("$0") does not match the expected one.\n"}'

I need to know what I need to do in order to continue on with the istallation

You guys did an update that now makes me choose a profile every time I log in. WHY? Keep it simple. I tried to go into Profile and keep it simple. Can you tell me how to go back to reset the old way?

Sometimes, you should leave well enough alone. Right????? HMMMMM???

All I want to do is open Firefox and go to my default page. Okay?

I will wait for your response.

how to get rid of search bar at bottom of screen. Sometimes when I click on a field and my cursor misses, and I start to type, it opens up a search bar at the bottom of the screen. I would like for that to go away. Win 11
