When I download Firefox initially I am able to set the home page the way I want with the shortcuts I use. After a few weeks the shortcuts disappear and the only way to get them back is to delete Firefox and reinstall. I am also not able to save bookmarks anymore. This has the same resolution methods.

This has happened 3 times already.

I recently switched to a new laptop and signed in to Firefox Sync. Bookmarks and passwords restored fine, but tabs didn’t reopen. I had important pages saved from sites like medithrivehub.com for product research, and I really need them back.

Is there a way to recover synced tabs that didn’t show up automatically? Any help would be appreciated.

I am using Firefox on Win 11, recently I have noticed a weird problem, on Ebay for example when a listing uses a drop down selection box for sizes, amounts etc none of them work for me, I click on the box and down arrow but nothing. I also went on to the Vodafone site to top up my phone but I was unable to do it as the drop down box to select the amount was empty. I have tried clearing my cache and even reloading Firefox but nothing seems to work, I just tried using Edge as well but its the same, suggesting that its maybe something to do with my settings?

PLEASE help! I am desperatly trying to stop firefox from opening a tab every time after I visited my individualized start page and clicking on it. It is my yahoo and every time I click to check my mails or read an article your browser opens a tab that shows my account settings. It is terribly annoying. Thank you! Ariane

Hello! After a clean install of Windows 11 24h2 Pro, Mozilla Firefox is unusable. It takes about 2 minutes to load a page which is abnormal. I remember I had the same issue when I first installed Windows 11 23H2 Pro and that was resolved somehow but it was 2 or 3 years ago and I've no idea what the solution was back then. I've tried some basic stuff including Test suggestion which of course didn't resolve anything as almost all of them are referring to cleaning cache, reinstall Firefox etc and it literally has nothing to do with my situation. Any solutions?

I have use the following type of code in the google appscript for downloading the html table as .pdf format but after update the Firefox browser the file unable to download but everything runs properly and the success message is appearing but the file is not downloading. Before, update the browser, the file was downloaded properly, please tell me how to resolve the problem. It's an URGENT. Please take necessary action at an earlier.

I used once entering about about:config to enable DOT setting in my android phone but have not yet completed network.trr.uri.Later on, tried to do it but cannot access using about:config any more. Please advise, as your recent online instruction allow windows laptop to set automatically using security and privacy to go to Https setting to enable it. Not so, for android devices, even using chrome://geckoview/content/config.xhtmi, it does not go directly to enable Https setting. Any recent updates to do it. I understand that the restrictions are good to prevent most users and not developers to adjust the defaults. But why not making simpler only for most users to tweak or enable DOT setting, just like brave. Thank you for your understanding and attention. Regards Francis
