Firefox Support ƒe Forum

Hi :)

I use Firefox on my Asus laptop running Windows 10. It's one of these laptops with both integrated and dedicated graphics (Intel plus Nvidia).

I often experience this issue when putting a video in full-screen (especially when viewing trailers on Steam, but this may just be because I mainly use my Windows laptop for gaming, and thus most of my video consumption here is from steam). This screen will briefly (for less than one second) turn black and audio will pause before the video appears in full-screen, and playback resumes normally.

It "feels" like a GPU switch is taking place, I'd assume from the integrated graphics to the GeForce card. This is not the proble. The issue appears when I return from full-screen mode. I always have several Command Prompts open with SSH connections to my Linux server and sometimes my MacBook Pro. These windows are now empty. That is, all text is gone, and I can no longer interact with the sessions. They're not "broken," as in they're not saying "Not responding" and don't ask to be forcefully closed, they're just black windows with borders around them. All I can do is close them all down and open new ones to reconnect and start over from where I think I remember I was.

I should note that this doesn't ONLY happen with Firefox videos going into full-screen, it has also happened after launching a game and returning to the desktop. This strengthens my belief that this has to do with GPU switching and/or video "mode" change(s).

Assuming I'm correct (my IQ is 5,000 and I do do the very big brians), is there any way to control how videos go into full-screen in Firefox? Or "lock it" to a specific GPU? I've rummaged through about:config and haven't seen anything that seems directly relevant.

I've already tried using the Windows settings to tell the system that Firefox.exe should use the integrated Intel graphics only, but this has no effect.

I remember I used to use "Media Player Classic" many years ago, and it had a slew of options of how to render full-screen video. IIRC, it had stuff like "Overlay," "Windowed," "Windowed borderless," "DirectX," etc. This make me wonder if there's multiple ways of chosing how to render video in full-screen, then maybe one could direct Firefox to use a different one than the default and my problem might disappear? Or maybe one could tell Windows that if an app wants to go into full-screen video mode, Windows should pick a specific mode for it?

I'm not a Windows developer, so I don't know :) But I'm hoping someone has a good tip, because I'm finding myself using this system more and more, and this is my biggest problem with it currently.

Thanks in advance :)

I am hosting a test website on a test domain which does not support HTTPS. In Chrome/Chromium, it is possible to forcefully "trust" an insecure (HTTP) domain name and temporarily allow it access to webcam, microphone, etc. It does not appear to be possible in Firefox. I've searched the about:config and even tried editing the configuration files directly to try and whitelist my test domain. I am not able to setup SSL or TLS on the server it is hosted on, and I need to be able to access the page on other devices. It does seem to allowlist "localhost" since I guess it's trusted by default. If there is any way to temporarily or permanently allowlist an HTTP website, I will be able to use my website on Firefox instead of Chromium, which would be much preferred.

Hello,

I received this message when trying to download a file a client sent me. I can download using other browsers but why should I?! ether I get a solution or I'll just change my browser instead of using multiple

Please advise thank you in advance Itai m lustgarten

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to email.wetransfer.com because this website requires a secure connection.

What can you do about it?

email.wetransfer.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

ever since the most recent update last night, these horrid blue boxes have appeared around every intractable element once clicked on (except on complex js based websites like twitter and youtube), no amount of farting around in about:config nor even using troubleshooting mode has gotten rid of them. caret browsing is off. windows' narrator is off. ive also tried disabling all of my plugins, which had no effect

it appears to be the exact same issue that this user was having. i tried all the solutions in that thread. no dice. i have also tried all the solutions in this reddit thread

ive attached a collage of some examples below.

ive tested these same sites in opera gx to compare, it does not exhibit this faulty behaviour.

i need this fixed as soon as possible as firefox remains my daily driver due to being the only browser that still has good plugin support and decent customization

i lost my bookmarks and saved passwords data saved in my account by resetting the password.

Please help me how to get my bookmarks and saved passwords data.

Hi,

I am trying to setup firefox to my liking automatically To this end, I am using "firefox profile maker" and it works great but I'm having issues adding all the add-ons that I like.

Only the add-ons that are included in ffprofile make seem to install properly (but also, now I can't uninstall them ??)

Anyway here is my full process for installing firefox automatically and then configuring it automatically. Perhaps you can hep me figure it out.

First I install firefox automatically using the offline installer (my computers do not have access to internet by default, I must whitelist each computer, then individual software then individual websites first)

So, I obtain the offline installer from this URL https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/111.0/win64/en-CA/Firefox%20Setup%20111.0.exe

Next I have used the website https://ffprofile.com/ to create a pre-made profile

This yields two files, and their contents profile.zip

profile\prefs.js profile\extensions\CanvasBlocker@kkapsner.de.xpi profile\extensions\uBlock0@raymondhill.net.xpi enterprise_policy.zip defaults\pref\autoconfig.js distribution\policies.json firefox.cfg

Next, I have pre-downloaded added all the add-on files I would like to install to the add-on folder However, when I perform the procedure, only canvas blocker and uBlock0 get installed

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. If I take all the add-on files, dump them all into firefox, it opens 16 tabs On each tab I can now click add and click okay, if I do it right and quick enough, they all install, unless I miss one.

That's over 50 clicks and very annoying !

Here is the list of add-ons I'm trying to add

extensions\umibo-2.4.2.xpi extensions\amp2html-2.1.0.xpi extensions\close_tabs_right-1.2.4.xpi extensions\cookie_autodelete-3.8.2.xpi extensions\copy_tabs-1.12.35.xpi extensions\darkreader-4.9.62.xpi extensions\facebook_container-2.3.9.xpi extensions\google_container-1.5.4.xpi extensions\istilldontcareaboutcookies-1.1.1.xpi extensions\merge_window-1.0.2.xpi extensions\old_reddit_redirect-1.6.1.xpi extensions\order_tabs_by_domain-0.2.3.xpi extensions\privacy_badger17-2023.1.31.xpi extensions\spoof_geolocation-0.1.1.xpi extensions\tab_manager_plus_for_firefox-5.2.0.xpi extensions\traduzir_paginas_web-9.6.1.xpi

I have created a script that I run after installing firefox using this command

"Firefox Setup 111.0.exe" /S

Then I run the following script to automatically install my pre-made profile

Firefox-deploy-ffprofile.bat

@echo off set z7EXE=%PROGRAMFILES%\7-Zip\7z.exe set EnterpriseConfig=firefox-profile\enterprise_policy.zip set ProfileConfig=firefox-profile\profile.zip set FirefoxProfile= set FirefoxInstallFolder=%PROGRAMFILES%\Mozilla Firefox\ set FirefoxProfilesFolder=%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

tasklist /nh /fi "imagename eq firefox.exe" | find /i "firefox.exe" > nul if %errorlevel% equ 0 (echo Firefox is still running & taskkill /f /im firefox.exe & timeout /t 5 )

end

echo firefox deployment finished

I wish this process was not so onerous as it has consumed my entire monday :( Thanks

I used Firefox products very heavily for several years, but switched to chrome about a year ago for work compliance reasons. I tried to log back into my Firefox account using login information stored in my password manager, and I got prompted to make a new account. There seems to be no record of my old account, no saved bookmarks, passwords, or history with other products like Firefox Monitor. To my knowledge I never got a notice that my account was being terminated. Is it possible to recover my account?

I've recently updated to version 110.0, and I immediately noticed an issue with my bookmarks where my scroll position in the bookmarks list isn't being saved after opening a tab or two. It keeps resetting back to the top of the list after a few seconds.

I don't know if this is a bug resulting from the latest update or what, but I know I didn't have this issue with bookmarks prior to updating to 110.0.

In the last month or so a new icon has appeared in the Firefox Toolbar. It looks like a puzzle piece and is near the far right of the Toolbar. If you click it you go to about:addons. Why is it here, and how do I get rid of it?

system was working yesterday,..i can pull up my e-mail on yahoo...can read it but now won't let me delete it..went and used microsoft edge per yahoo staff signed into my yahoo account and mail worked fine...it's something on firefox browser...anyone else having problems ???

There are a number of threads/articles on this, such as: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1341031

They don't include that if "Clear History when Firefox is Closed" is checked, that even though settings are set to open previous tabs, everything is lost. There are options for that setting but it has wiped out my previous sessions a few times with no recovery available. I have always forgotten which setting does that even when it happens, so am hoping the threads/articles will be updated to include it for fixing the problem. It seems these settings are in conflict though and not clear. If Open Previous Windows and Tabs is set to on, I think it should override wiping people's tabs out in other settings that are buried or not as intuitive.

Mozilla lags a lot when it's started, it takes ten thousand hours to open a tab when it's started. YouTube lags a lot and specially when 60fps videos are watched and shorts are being watched. Otherwise everything works well with other browsers, but Mozilla.

Since my Firebox browser automatically updated on Feb 20, 2023, it crashes several times a day. Is this a known issue? Will there be another update released soon to fix this issue? Or how can I fix this on my end? Thank you.

I have recently got a 17" laptop and I notice, when I am on websites that have an additional scroll bar to the right of the page, it gets lost behind the firefox scroll bar. is there a setting I can change to resolve this?

Hello, I've noticed a change since the last update and don't understand why?

When opening the bookmarks tab I would get the drop down of a long list of links I have saved. I sometimes bunch them into groups so when looking down the long list, I can see the link I want better when more than one are from the same website.

But my issue is that when I went through the list and found that group of links, I could click onto one to open the page. In the past before the update I could click on the bookmarks drop down again, and still see the same area of links I had just clicked on.

Now when the bookmarks drop down closes it defaults to the top of the list and I need to scan down to find the links I was looking at again. Why? Yes when I closed the browser off and reopened it the bookmarks list would start at the top again. But if left opened I could click on the bookmarks tab and it would open to the same link area I clicked onto last.

Is there a way in settings I can reverse this annoying, unnecessary change.

A word to the Firefox workers that like changing things for no reason. I use Firefox because I like the things your browser has that the others don't. Keep taking the little things away that people like, which you seem to keep doing, then my favourite browser will just become "The same old s#*@" like all the others.
