After the most recent Firefox update from April 7th, 2022, I've been unable to download png image files to my pc. Is there something I can do to change this, please? Thank you.

Idiot question but when I select a pdf file from a web page it goes into the built in pdf viewer fine and displays the document. However, I can't, for the life of me, find out how to return to the original web page and continue!

I had a simple plugin working which I created for my university dissertation , it suddenly stopped working roughly about one week ago and now even the default firefox starter plugin and demo example will not run or inject a file. I have tried running them on two seperate systems and tried both nightly, beta and regular firefox. Also tried running them on unbutu and windows machines with the same issue. Has anything changed reclently on how plugins are handled? Any suggestions/help would be greatfully appriciated

After opening the browser I can click links and open new tabs perhaps two or three times. Thereafter, a new tab opens with the link in the address bar but nothing happens... refreshing, highlighting the link and pressing enter and even selecting the drop down does nothing. I need to close the browser and start again every time.

I don't know if this is related but the issue only arose after installing Mozilla VPN last month (although there have been a couple of Firefox updates since then too).

The screenshot shows the back/forward/refresh icons greyed out and nothing happening (this, ironically, was me trying to access the Support page).

Any advice?

whenever I search something that (is / sounds like) a product amazon links or other online shopping links show up as the number 1 results after a short delay. I have been redirected to amazon many times when I tried to click the #1 result but the amazon link pops up where the #1 result was.I have uplaoded 2 images the one where steam is the #1 result is what i want it to be, the second Image is what happens after a short delay.

New computer, running Windows 11, McAfee LiveSafe came with for 30 day trial. I use Firefox, have since 1997. Just added Mozilla VPN. Old computer ran Xubuntu. Windows 11 needs antivirus because it's Windows. So. How compatible are McAfee LiveSafe and Firefox with Mozilla VPN? What suggestion, if any, does Mozilla have for an antivirus program that will work well for Windows 11 but not mess with Firefox and Mozilla VPN? Thank you.

I've just started noticing in Firefox 99 on Arch Linux that Firefox is using the wrong font when the font-family is given as "ui-monospace/other fonts..., monospace". This looks similar to the issue mentioned here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1351497

The inspector for these websites underlines "monospace" as the active font, but then uses a non-monospace font (in my case, Bitstream Vera Sans) to display the content. This does not happen when the font-family is "monospace,monospace" or "monospace". I can't quite figure out exactly what causes the font to be chosen incorrectly: sometimes it does show up if I have the preceding fonts installed, e.g. Consolas or Liberation Mono, but other instances do not look as intended.

Currently, I have fontconfig set up such that: $ fc-match :family=ui-monospace VeraMono.ttf: "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono" "Roman" $ fc-match :family=monospace VeraMono.ttf: "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono" "Roman"

Firefox's fonts in about:preferences are configured as all defaults: Serif: Bitstream Vera Serif Sans: Bitstream Vera Sans Monospace: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono

I'm not sure what happened, but the picture-in-picture extension isn't working anymore and there's a sort of "script" (see uploaded image) that shows up over the top of videos, including but not limited to the ones on YouTube. I used to be able to still use the extension by using keyboard commands at first (ctrl shift ]), but now that doesn't work either.

Firefox keeps crashing for the past two months, at least 30% of the times I have opened, it has crashed.

Why is this happening, and what are you going to do to make it stop.

I have a website and I would like to differentiate between win 10 and win 11. As the user agent between the both is the same, I'm looking for a solution. Does anyone has an idea? thx, Eric

I download then open many student files each day. PDFs open fine automatically, but never Word files. In the Applications settings dialog, I have tried to choose the file format docx and doc. But neither are recognised as a valid file type. I realise that Microsoft is a bully and Mozilla may be trying to discourage its use, but I and the students are stuck with Word. How come docs and doc are invalid and how can I persuade Firefox to open them?

Thank you

Hello! Sometimes when I download something, when I click on the download icon in the toolbar, the download popup doesn't appear. I can fix this by restarting firefox or opening a new window. Why does this happen? I am using Linux Mint Cinnamon 20.3

Ever since the "What's new with Firefox" page contained an ad for a movie, I want to disable it as I find it objectionable that a decision to include advertising on that page was made. How does one disable this page from being displayed after Firefox is updated and restarted?

Firefox 99.0

I guess it's a problem with the latest update because it didn't happen to me before. Gmail keeps showing me this message: "Gmail is having authentication problems. Some features may not be operational. Please try logging in to troubleshoot the problem." I have relogin, deleted the cookies and site data but I still get that message. I have tried starting the browser from "about:support" in troubleshooting mode but the error still appears. This does not happen in other browsers.

You just deleted all my active tabs and history I don't know what happened but yesterday I had 7 pinned tabs and 6 active tabs. Today all is gone and my history is deleted. What the actual [expletive]?

Please follow the Mozilla Support rules and guidelines. Thank you.

We just bought a new HP computer with Windows 11 and I'm trying to install Firefox. I d/l the file from the Mozilla website, clicked on the file that d/l and the installation begins. The installation progresses until the bar indicates it's over 1/2 way done. Then all of a sudden the screen changes to show a blank tab name and the file area says something about a Google search. What am I supposed to do with this page since I don't know what I'm supposed to search for. I don't see a way to get back to the installation page. I just want to install Firefox so why all this runaround without an installation?

Hello! Since the most recent firefox update, my settings and extensions have been inaccessible to me due to my firefox account profile being "old." It has been working perfectly until this update. If I try to change my profile to my old one, it forces me to create a new one which does not include my saved addons and settings. I am able to usually manually move my bookmarks to the new profile via the files stored locally. I really need access to the settings and extensions, so it would be great if someone can help me to recover them. I tried to troubleshoot by finding my extensions local folder from my old profile, and I copied it to a new profile, but it didn't work. I am also wondering, if I do copy the extensions successfully, how can I also copy the settings preferences? Any solution is appreciated, thank you!

I tried this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recover-user-data-missing-after-firefox-update And I tried this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data#w_what-information-is-stored-in-my-profile

I have tried the scaling options and it makes no difference. For PDF files, I save them. For webpages, I need to workaround and use Edge or Print Screen and past into a Word document.

I am newly running Windows 10 and reinstalled my printer drivers for HP 4520.

Thank you.
