Hi all, Firefox has been using quite a bit of RAM lately.

Ok, I had like a dozen tabs open, but I think this might be a little too many Firefox instances (see screenshot; minimize memory usage just run).

I have already tried disablig tab autostart and decreasing the value of processes in about:config but nothing ever changes.

I hope someone will be able to help me out. Thanks :)

Hello Firefox Support,

So recently I've been trying to google things, and it keeps sending my searches to Bing instead of Google, and much more recently I've been directed to a site called http://24infonews.live/ with a message always saying "Not Found". My only solution to get around this is actually going to google.com. If you could please help me with this it would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the help, Rowan.

I use Firefox locally to review the HTML/CSS while creating web pages (Win7 & Win10). Upon browser update, Firefox stopped displaying mask of any image format (SVG or PNG).

I did solve this issue in 2020 by changing the settings. about:config > privacy.file_unique_origin changing: to 'false' > refresh tab. Yet, since October 2021, it's no longer helping. After a browser update, I don't see the images with a mask, see attachment. The mask images show OK when the HTML page is on the server, but codding requires a constant 'quick check,' and usually uploading to the server is a final step. Can anyone help?

I prepared a simple example page [https://artenergy.com/mask] with a download link. Thus one can open this file locally to see the issue.

Thank you!

I have no problem using Chrome , Brave browser to access pages on my dev server. My front end (React) is on localhost 3000, server is localhost 3001. This used to work, just two weeks ago. I'm on FF v95.0.2.

I've tried everything, headers in my index.html, cleared cookies and cache, various network settings, ran it in troubleshooting mode, restarted FF. I have all cors request enable on the server.

Anything I might be missing ?

edit: Found my mistake, had another app opened on the same port , apologies.

Hello,

I have been experiencing problems proceeding with logins and online banking transactions on my HP laptop and Samsung mobile phone on numerous websites.

1). I have not been able log in to BMO online banking on Firefox on my laptop since last March 2020. I receive this message:

404 Error Sorry, but we can't find the page that you're looking for. It may no longer exist, changed location or is temporarily unavailable. Please consider using one of the links below to help you find the information you need. Home Contact Us Book an appointment

None of the links work on Firefox, however, I can login on any website, without a problem, using the Microsoft Edge internet browser.

2). Also, now I cannot log in to my account on pcoptimum.ca. I receive this message:

503 Service Unavailable No server is available to handle this request.

Again, I can login on any website, without a problem, using the Microsoft Edge internet browser.

I prefer to support Firefox, rather than Microsoft Edge. What could the issue be? Thank you.

i need to remove the usernames from a drop down list on a particular website. same problem on microsoft edge, they have a trash-can icon beside each username in the dropdown list, so it's easy to remove each username. what is the equivalent on firefox?

So, certain web pages apparently have text in white font color while also using a white background. I'd blame it on the team behind the page, but it seems that it works well on Chrome, so I'd like to know how to fix it.

Examples: 1: http://ipm.ucanr.edu/QT/parasitesinsectcard.html 2: https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html

Add-Ons: ThanksToYou tabs Speedtweaks (none active at moment of taking screenshots, though) OneTab.

I'd add images, but they take way too long to upload

The documentation says to use F11. F11 was removed from ChromeOS. The Full Screen Button on the keyboard will take Firefox out of full screen, but when you try to use it to put Firefox in Full Screen, the window gets slightly larger, and then goes back to its original size.

Other applications seem to be able to go to full screen using the Full Screen key that are running under Linux. For instance, gvim, thunar, meld, and gnucash all will go into full screen with the Full Screen Key.

When I start to move a tab to another location, a small box attached to the bottom of the tab appears with the same info that's on the tab. If I move the tab to a different location, many of my tabs disappear and I have to find them in bookmarks to put them back. Is there any way to remove that little box attached to the bottom of the tab?

I use a particular web site frequently :

https://www.triumph-trophy.com

On all of the Pages at this site there are Advertisement banners, one across the top of the page, and one down the left side of the page.

Clicking in those Banners used to open the respective advertisers Site. I can't remember now whether it opened in a new Window or a new Tab.

Recently, and possibly since one of the latest Firefox updates, these Advertising Banner Links have stopped working, and nothing at all happens if they are "clicked".

They DO work if I right click and select "Open link in new tab", or "Open link in new window"

They DO work when clicked if I open the Page in Google Chrome.

I have followed advice from previous similar reported problems, without success.

I don't have any Extensions enabled, and am running the Default Theme. I have cleared the cache and Cookies.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

Hi there.

I am looking to disable the following hidden extensions on Firefox 95 64bit.

Amazon.com.au Bing Chambers(UK) eBay

When i go to the addons / extensions setting in firefox these are not showing up, yet when i use CCleaner they are there. When i disable them using CCleaner they enable themselves immediately.

Any assistance with this would be great,

Many thanks,

Print from screen or print from Email (Outlook, Microsoft 365) hangs up; the screen says "Preparing Preview" forever. Firefox prints alright from Adobe and other programs, but not from Email or Print for Firefox. Chrome has no problem printing from Outlook Email or Print from Chrome. Can anyone advise on what may be the problem and what I can do to fix it? I've rebooted the computer several times and gone through Firefox troubleshooter (and for my troubles had to reset everything as best I could). {I'm an old guy and not especially computer literate}

When I right click to open in new tab I get a blank screen , but if I use the new option "open link in new container tab it works . What did the latest update do? I am running windows 11 and I did the "browser.tabs.loadInBackground

and set its value to true and no luck.

I have several sites behind a reserve proxy using NGINX Proxy manager. Every time my Let encrypt certs renew, for several days after I get SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP when trying access my sites from firefox. I do not have this issue with other browsers.

I am on firefox 95.0.2

Firefox will start once (maybe) and then it makes no difference where I click from (tray, programs, desktop shortcut) Firefox refuses to boot up. I've tried re-installing multiple times. If I reboot, it will start. Also sometimes I will get a New tab but the page/URL never comes up. Firefox just hangs. I'm running Windows 11.

Microsoft stream doesn't work (specifically watching a video) , i tried reloading a bunch of times but it still wouldn't work. I went on my phone to the firefox browser and tried to watch that stream on there, but that didn't work either. Please help and thank you. Uploaded photo is what it looked like on my phone
