I'm trying to get my wife's firefox browsers synced - mainly her laptop and phone. I've got the phone signed in and working fine, but on her laptop there's no option to sign in and the sync option is missing from the settings menu?

It seems to be profile related as if I create a new blank profile the option is there - but if I copy all the data from her original profile the option goes missing again. Short of manually copying all her data over, I'm a bit stuck for what to do next - any ideas?

I've tried disabling any addons, restarting in troubleshooting mode etc. I've also looked at all the other solutions I can find from here (mostly related to group policies, there's nothing enabled on this) and everything seems as it should be.

I haven't tried reinstalling, but it seems like this is a profile issue rather than an installation issue?

It's a Win 11 laptop (upgraded from W10 if that makes a difference), FF version is 135.0 64 bit.

Thanks!

I am having trouble pinning any Extensions to my toolbar. When i click on the Extensions icon (puzzle piece), the Extensions menu immediately pops up. My extension (Bitwarden) is set to "Enabled". When I click on the three horizontal dots, however, the only options are 1) Remove, 2) Report, or 3) Manage. There's no option given to pin the extension.

Because of that, the extension basically never opens, and I am unable to use it. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Thanks in advance.

I am running Firefox 129.0.2 (64-bit) in Windows 11 on a Surface tablet. FWIW, the extension is running fine in Chrome.

The logo in the top left-hand corner of my website's landing page does not display using Firefox but is displayed properly using every other desktop browser. Using Firefox, just my name is displayed in place of the logo. Chrome for Android has the same problem but Firefox for Android displays OK. On my iPad both Chrome and Firefox display properly. What are the reasons for this? Is there some upper limit for the dimensions of the logo (mine is oblong in shape)? Do I have some settings that don't suit certain browsers? My site was built using Wordpress/Elementor/OceanWP. Many thanks in advance for an answer!

I'm not sure I have the right topic as I didn't see what I will try to say. The problem is when I send an email (googlemail), I cannot insert a photo/picture in the email. The only thing I can do is attach which I do but want it inserted too. This only started happening about 2 weeks ago. It is now to the point where I have to use another browser to get it to work as it should. Any ideas why?

It's not that they are not in my Firefox downloads manager, which I expected. It's that I confirmed before closing my private browsing window that they were in my Downloads folder on my C drive, and when I went back after closing the private browsing window they were gone. Under "recent files" in my file browser it showed a couple of the most recent downloads and when I tried to click to open them it said they had been moved or deleted. Entering the first couple words of the file titles in the search bar in my file browser yields absolutely nothing.

This was over 30 files or so. It will be really irritating to try to find and download all of them again. Does anyone know of any way for me to get them back???

Hello,

New subscriber here. I have been given the task to test the install and uninstall of the Purview Firefox browser extension using Intune. I created 2 groups in EntraID, one for each (install and uninstall).

I have no issues with the installation. Initially, I left the test device in the install group and then added it to the uninstall group to remove it. (this usually works with other apps, it worked this way with the Purview Chrome browsing extension as well other apps) but when I do this, nothing happens.

Next, I removed the device from the install group and added it to the uninstall group only. Once the configuration profile applies to the test device, it allows the user to remove it manually (before it did not) but the extension remains installed.

I have created a policy using the administrative template extension uninstall option as well as with the OMA-URI settings but the same happens. When i check the device configuration for the device in Intune, it says it succeeded but that is not the case. The OMA-URI setting I was not too sure about, but gave it a shot. I used the UUID value for the Purview Firefox extension

I am attaching some pictures and hope someone can tell me what I am doing wrong. I can add additional information, if needed. I have opened a ticket with Microsoft last week but have not called me yet. I ran into this forum today.

Thanks in advance

Firefox is used on Windows 11 Enterprise. There is a firefox.cfg in the installation directory (and an autoconfig.js in the ./defaults/pref sub-directory). The firefox.cfg targets an autoconfigfile.js. This setup is recommended here: [firefox using autoconfig"]

  1. In the support article´s example, the firefox.cfg uses a pref(); expression. Is it possible to use a lockPref(); expression instead?
  2. What is the result of either using pref(); expressions or user_pref(); expressions in the remoted autoconfigfile.js? Are both of them possible, especially while the firefox.cfg uses lockPref(); expressions instead of pref();?

I hope that somesone can help with one of these questions. Thanks a lot!
