I have recently encountered reproducible failures when attempting to download files or save pages to local storage. The target directory is located on a mounted NTFS file system with the options umask=007, user=root, and group=disk. My Firefox browser is running under a non-root user account that is a member of the disk group. However, I consistently receive the error message: “XXX could not be saved because the source file could not be read.”

I would greatly appreciate anyone's assistance in resolving this issue.

I'm using the AI Chatbots plugin in the sidebar and I'm trying to log into Claude, but the plugin keeps asking for a verification code and Anthropic only sends a magic link email which doesn't work in this situation.

Hey, I am currently working on an application where I want to upload files to a server using mtls via a webapp. The upload goes to another url and server than the one where the webapp is served from. If I test the file uploading without mTLS, it succeeds, and with mTLS enabled it also works in chromium, but in Firefox I get the following error: "Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at <url> (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null)." on the `OPTIONS` request before the `PUT` is done. The client and the server both have a certificate from a custom CA, which I imported into firefox, along with the private key. Does someone know what the issue here might be? I am suspecting that there is some problem with firefox loading the user certificate on the preflight request?

Does Firefox still support automatically updating the opensearch XML description? MDN still mentions this feature: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/XML/Guides/OpenSearch#supporting_automatic_updates_for_opensearch_description

Also, in about:config, there used to be an "browser.search.update.interval" entry that specified the update interval. I can't find it anymore.

If this isn’t the right place to ask, could you point me in the right direction?

One of the recent updates changed Firefox's behaviour. It now remembers my login status to various sites when I close the browser. For example, if I was logged in to facebook when I closed the browser, I will be logged in when I open the browser and navigate to facebook.com. This was not the case until very recently (a few weeks at most). Is there a way to change this?

I have strict privacy settings, and Firefox should delete all cookies when it is closed. There are no 'exceptions'. I have 'always use private mode' checked for history. Also: I haven't changed any settings recently - something changed in Firefox.

Any advice? Thank you.

Tried to sign in to Firefox on a Linux laptop; searched for a password and finally found it under "a" for accounts;maybe my error. Tried to sync. bookmarks etc. from Android phone and it suggest two non existent menu options: Sign in and - i've forgotten; Sync between devices maybe; anyway nothing resembling either was in the menu so it is at least satisfying to know you can delete a browser with no concern that anything useful or even functional is to be missed.

Hi,

I am using mTLS to authenticate my computers reaching websites I manage. I imported client certificate on firefox and cloudflare is checking if the client is sending the right certificate. I am using Debian and Windows. On Debian (13), everything was working great until the version 140 ESR. I don't know why but the client certificate is not sent to cloudflare, sometime it is (when CTRL+F5) but no CSS is rendered. So I can't reach my websites. Firefox is still asking for the right certificate to send but that's all. This is weird because on the same version on Windows, with the same certificate, it is working. I tried newer version (144.0.2) on Debian but it is not working. The version I use at the moment is 128.14.0esr. Cloudflare is blocking the traffic because no certificate is sent. If I disable the rule, it is working.

Could someone help me? Feel free to ask for more details.

When I click on KPN TV+ I see a message: Firefox is installing missing components, try later. But Firefox is NOT providing missing components.. Or is the problem that KPN (and Ziggo IPTV) can NOT run on Linux???
