If I check "Always ask you where to save files" to true, the settings is reset to "false" after I restart my browser. Is this a bug? How can I make this setting persistent?

I use Firefox 146.0.1 (64-bit) for Windows 11

How do I copy files such as the 'bookmarkbackups' files from the Profiles folder?

As seen in the prtscr I get an error message when I try to copy any file from Profiles folder. Firefox is closed and I am admin and trying to copy the file as an adminstrator.

I just bought my boyfriend a new iMac. We are having trouble loading many sites and platforms using the latest Firefox browser. The list is growing but includes Facebook, Meetup, Wikipedia, chess.com, nytimes.com - in all cases, rather than a login screen, we get an error message or a home page loads with no access to other pages or login area. I've cleared the cache, restarted, tried going directly to the site to log in, but nothing works. Everything is fine when using Chrome, but we prefer Firefox. Is this a conflict in the new Apple OS? Is there a fix?

I need to be able to delete the history on Firefox. I have reinstalled, tried all settings, etc. The delete key does not work anymore. I will be discarding this PC. I have a new WIndows 11 machine. Thank you.

Asseeninthe subject line and here, the space key often does not result in a single space being displayed although sometimes -- like just now -- it is termporarily starting to work.

I am running FirefoxVersion 146.0.1 (64-bit)onWin11(andgetting erratic spaces and backspaces again.)

Interestingly, the main Enter key also has similar problems although the keypad Enter key seldom does.

TheDeletekeyhasneverhad this kind of problem so I haveoften used back-arrow and Delete instead of Backspace.

Tobefair,thisalsohappenswithNotepad++ and other programs.

I have no idea how to troubleshoot such an erratic/intermittent situation.

Emojis do not show on Firefox 146 on macOS. I downgraded to 145.0.2 and they do show, so it seems related to Firefox 146.

I have macOS 26.2 running in both test cases.

I'm running Windows 11 Home (fully patched). Firefox recently updated to the above-mentioned version. Since then, I've "lost" all my bookmarks and cannot load any backup version from the "Old Firefox Data" folder (which has several bookmark backup files). My security software is Windows Security..

The IMPORT/EXPORT function in the Bookmarks Manager reports no backups nor any bookmarks at all.

The same IMPORT/EXPORT function won't allow me to maneuver/select any of the bookmark backup files for importation.

Last, I cannot find any instructions on how to manually restore my bookmarks.

I live in a rural area and the power has gone out twice in the last 10 days. While I have my PC connected to a UPS with line purification, the power was out for hours draining the UPS battery. Both times I was not home to do a controlled shutdown. This bookmark error happened after the first power outage, but I was able to restore form an old backup. This time, however, I'm unable to restore.

I'd appreciate any assistance in this matter.

I lost my Firefox on my pc. I thought i needed to download it again but when I downloaded it, it was a different version and none of my bookmarks were available. I don't know how to restore my old firefox. Help, please.

Issue Summary: My website (mass-doc.com) displays blank thumbnails in Firefox's New Tab "Recent Activity" section, while other websites (Claude.ai, Ahrefs, FamilySearch, Fox News, Xfinity) display their OG images correctly in the same section. Environment: Extensions Installed: uBlock Origin, FireShot (both tested disabled with no change)

Evidence That OG Images Are Correctly Configured:

Google Search Console "Insights" section correctly displays my OG images Social media preview tools show images correctly Images load directly when URL is accessed in browser Image specifications meet requirements: 1200×675 pixels, 132KB file size, JPEG format

Example OG Meta Tags (verified correct):

I was just wondering on m mozilla account it ask for my fire fox url an api's and wonted to know how to find out what fire fox search engines api and url code an address is to set up fox as my search engines on my mozilla account

I've been using Firefox for a while, and while there are many things I like about it, it has always been a resource hog. In the past I could get around this by just killing Firefox in Windows Resource Manager and restarting, but ever since getting a new computer an upgrading to Windows 11, it's gotten worse. Every couple of days my computer freezes for 10 or more minutes, I'm having to do a hard reboot ever few days, and I'm even bluescreening about twice a month. I'm pretty sure Firefox is the culprit because killing it will usually resolve the issue.

I'm wondering if there is some way to put Firefox in a sandbox so it does not consume nearly all available memory and other computer resources. It is by far the biggest consumer of resources on my system and I do not want to dedicate 4GB+ of memory to an app that is just showing a couple of web pages and playing YouTube videos.

I am incredibly frustrated by the continuing problem of all my Bookmarks disappearing with the usual "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem." This issue has been going on since NOVEMBER!!! I usually manage to get my Bookmarks back by closing all txt files that I need to keep open, store them in a new folder on my laptop, and then restart my laptop. This time, it didn't work.

Can anyone steer me to a permanent solution to this problem?

Thanks, in advance, for any help offered.

Using Firefox as my browser, I have over the last few days been unable to maintain a connection with the internet.

You will please excuse me as I am a 70 year old with limited understanding of the interaction of the internet and its terminology.

A couple of things you may need to know to offer me advise I just received a refurbished Dell laptop with windows 11. I'm using firefox as the browser comcast xfinity is my ISP I subscribe to NordVPN and NordPass

I am having a problem maintaining a connection to firefox.

I can look on the taskbar and see that I am connected via Comcast and the NordVPN and yet I will have displays of "you are not connected to the internet" or similar wording. If I need to include that, at these times, I look at the task bar and I confirm that I am connected.

In addition to this Windows 11 laptop, I have two active android phones. My Gmail, last I checked on the laptop was displaying vividly inaccurate time stamps to incoming emails. My phones however show the emails with accurate timestamps. (A difference of 4 to 6 hours like EST New York to middle of the Pacific Ocean)

I do have photos of these events, screenshots of sorts... but they're on the phone. I'm currently using the firefox browser to offer this post/question, but I sit in anticipation of it acting erratically. Finally I have downloaded a different browser to use while the firefox issue is being trouble shot.

Rather than add more possibly irrelevant information, I'll send now and let the community ask me questions.

I'm trying to figure out how to get the recommended stories independent of Firefox Desktop.

So, by default, what domain or IP does Firefox send API requests to when it fetches the recommended stories on the new tab page?

Hi. I just switched to Windows Defender for antivirus. On Google Chrome I had to add an extension so Defender will work with Chrome to detect malicious websites.

On the eicar.org website the test virus is stopped on the Microsoft and Chrome browsers, but not with Firefox.

How do I set up Defender to work with Firefox?

Thanks
