The pause feature in the debug menu doesn't always work. Pressing F8 to toggle it does in general work, but I noticed when I enter a context menu on some websites, pressing F8 with the debug menu open doesn't do anything. This is especially annoying for me because when I am making UserStyles (custom user-made CSS) for websites, some elements disappear when trying to find them in inspect element using the "pick an element from the page" feature. I thought pausing could fix it (which in other cases can) but that also wasn't working. If anyone can help me that would be appreciated!

(Also, pressing the pause button directly also makes the element disappear, so that wont work)

Recently I've noticed that my tabs auto refresh if I have'nt been in them for a while. I turned that off ages ago cus I hate it. Now, all of a sudden they refresh again.

accessibility.blockautorefresh services.sync.prefs.sync-seen.accessibility.blockautorefresh

Are both set to true, which I'm pretty sure was supposed to block auto refresh.

I don't know what else to do.

I'm on Firefox version 139.0.1 (64-bit), Windows 11.

When I use Clear URL extension I cannot log into my Online Banking with Firefox. How can set up an exception for this site.

I entered the URL into the exceptions in the Enhanced Tracking Protection settings but that did not change anything. Only turning off Clear URL will allow me to log in using Firefox

Hi everyone!

I’ve been using Firefox for years, but my bookmark bar is turning into chaos 😅 Between work, tools, articles, and personal stuff, it’s getting hard to keep track of everything.

I’ve tried folders and naming tricks, but I feel like I’m either clicking too much or forgetting what I saved.

Curious to hear what methods or extensions others here are using to keep bookmarks clean and accessible? Any tips or workflow ideas would be awesome!

Thanks in advance

How do I prevent any and all inline animations from autoplay? When I right-click the offending image there are options for "Play" and "Loop". I can stop the animation by unchecking "Loop" but I do not want it to play ever. I only want to see static images on a web page unless I initiate the animation.

Is there a way of changing/removing the independence of browser windows?

Whenever I have multiple windows and close one them I cannot retrieve them, re-opening closed tabs doesn't work, since it only works on their own window.

Is there a way to change this behaviour?

I hope I have explained myself, thanks.

Read Aloud charged me $25.00 on 5/31/25, but I did Not subscribe to this feature. And when I open my Firefox browser to I see where I can add this feature, but have not as I do not need it.

I called the phone number listed on my American Express charge, but it states "this number is not in service." Also, I visited the website, and it looks like a phishing shell that first asks for my credit card number to 'look-up' the charge. No way!!

I'm disputing this charge with the AmEx, but you may want to be aware of this issue. My office does not allow us to use Firefox, and now I see why.

Before I uninstall Firefox, I'm removing all credit card history from the background.

A new problem..one I've never had before. I cannot connect to my Ally Bank site using Firefox. I looked at help pages but they just confuse me. Can you give me info ( step by step if necessary) that will get me to Ally? .

Maybe it is my spiritual guides because i obsses and have OCD and have too many tabs. But i started having tabs get deleted and i have no tabs on re-launch, tried to check, re-check this. I Am not sure if to reinstall because i don't want to lose passwords or setting/history (i don't remember now it should be saved) but usually reinstalling doesn't solve anything for me anyways...

I didn't install any new extensions when it started happening!

It doesn't happen every time so it is hard to troubleshoot, i cannot use browser with safe mode. I might test it couple times.

I occasionally increase the zoom level of websites (usually forums) with Ctrl+mouse wheel if the default text size is too small. However, if I forget to set them back to 100% (Ctrl+0) before closing the tab, the next time I open that URL, it's at the former adjusted zoom level -- not 100%. Really annoying.

How do I force Firefox to open all URLs at 100% regardless of the last custom zoom level? I have default zoom already set to 100% in Settings and Zoom Text Only is not enabled.

Thanks.
