In the past, when I click on the "history" tab I have several options for viewing my history, including the ability to view all my browsing history for as long as I've been using Firefox. Today I went to search for a download and discovered my settings have changed so that the only options now available to me are "Today," "Yesterday," and "Last Seven Days."

I don't know what happened to change my settings, though I did notice last week that I had to re-enter my passwords on several sites that I regularly visit.

How to I change the settings on History so that I have the option to view my entire browsing history again?

Hello, please i have been reporting this issue a few months ago

The issue is that when i try to use google sites (google/Youtube) the sites just go into Loading mode and they load, they load and they load for quite some time (sometimes 30sec, sometimes 1minute) then they just abruptly stop loading, the tab just sits there doing nothing so again i have to fill my search in google and sometimes it just works and sometimes it loads again and does nothing

I tried using other browsers, they work just fine but i'm used to using Mozilla and i don't want to switch to some other browser

I've got a response to this issue that it is due to google changing/updating some security protocol and Mozilla did not update this, but that was like 4months ago and i am still experiencing this nerve twisting issue

Please help

Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected an issue and did not continue to mpsconline.gov.in. The website is either misconfigured or your computer clock is set to the wrong time.

It’s likely the website’s certificate is expired, which prevents Firefox from connecting securely. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

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.

Had to reinstall the Browser on my laptop after a harddrive replacement. I'm avoiding changing my password on my primary Firefox Account (Currently on a brand new FF Account using an email I typically don't use ) since that event will cause me to lose bookmarks etc on my primary FF account due to their encryption settings.

This is all because I can't remember my main password, for my primary FF Account email. And, I'm trying to not get locked out from login attempts.

At the moment my primary FF Account is logged in to my Desktop PC. Is there some way to view my password on my primary account that is currently logged in on my Desktop PC, without totally compromising my Account synced info?

I just want to resync everything to my laptop :/ That's the main problem I'm running in to, because there is no way to reset my password WITHOUT losing tons of my info. I'm pretty sure I don't have 2FA set up nor any alternative methods for password recovery. I wasn't prompted them.

I am trying to log into an internet backing website, https://www.lloydsbank.com/, and enter my username and password. I know that they are correct because I have changed my password today and saved it in the password manager. The website doesn't log me in, it says that I need to enable cookies. I accessed Settings > Privacy & Security > Enhanced Tracking Protection and it is set to Standard, which should allow cookies. I retried using Help > Troubleshoot Mode which closes and reopens FireFox and I can then log into my bank without problems. I came out of FireFox and went back in, without Troubleshoot Mode and got the "enable cookies" error message again. Can anybody help?

Still at a loss that since the FF 112 update, I have not been able to use mouse over (hover) and highlight a Biblical scripture in the program "Instaverse". So far, the problem has not been solved. I have used this browser and Instaverse in preparing sermons for years and it worked perfectly with the FF Browser and Microsoft Word (still works perfectly with Word). I use the desktop version of Windows 10 and discovered that in order to get Instaverse to work with FF, I have to use the 32 bit version. It did not work this time. My question is "Why?"

I want to make a suggestion: This last week I was financially hacked and I have to close all my bank accounts, etc. My biggest concern is anyone with my FF login info can get all my passwords, etc, if they compromise my phone or any device with my browser, and reach into EVERY financial institution I am affiliated with, not just my bank.

My suggested solution: Since all my accounts contain all my info in Firefox, let me choose one that I can control with biometric login only so I can block all my info unless my hands have been cutoff. You can add a back door with multiple info requests to the print, or request additional fingers, if I click add this. I am terrified they will get to ALL my empty credit cards since they hacked all my info. Personally I love the fingerprint, and if I lock it, it can ONLY be unlocked with my fingerprint, or additional things I choose. I don't have all my pwds handy, nor could I ever have what all I need. I am CONSTANTLY locked out because I don't recall my pw.

I believe this happened after some Windows update.

Neither in Firefox, nor in Chrome can I get my microphone to work. The browsers are correctly asking for permission to access the microphone, apparently the website gets a positive feedback, but no audio stream.

For example, if I use the online microphone test, the test widget displays a line, but no visualisation of my speaking. https://www.onlinemictest.com/

The webcam works fine, and the microphone does work in other applications.

Teams Web even allows me to switch Microphone from my headset to the internal mic, but it doesn’t change anything.

Might there be some Windows Policies in play that forbid browsers in general to access the microphone?

How can I further analyse this issue?

Thanks a bunch already!
