Hi! i was wondering why my firefox reseted after reboot. i have all the important tabs and bookmarks for my university work, chores and articles, platforms that are mandetory on my uni. also, i was tinkering with partitions before the reboot because my steam didnt want to run any games. i was guided by the chat gpt with terminal coding to do get steam working even tho i didnt solve the problem. is there any way you can help me?

I have a folder with many bookmarks in it, and when I want to open multiple links in the folder but not ALL of them, I have to keep opening the bookmarks folder after middle clicking each link 1 at a time. I can't open the entire folder - there are 100+ and say I want to open 10.

Is there a way to keep the bookmark folder open while I open each link in new tabs?

Thanks!

Support Firefox to be able to use different tab view modes on different windows! For example, two Firefox windows on different monitors, in my situation below:

- One on a 1920*1080 hori screen, with vertical tab sidebar disabled - One on a 1080*1920 vert screen, with vertical tab sidebar enabled for this window only in this case.

It brings much more convenience, at least for situations just like mine :)

I don't know what you're doing but EVERYTIME I do an update lately, something goes wrong. Today after update, my STGs are affected and ALL ARE GONE. I do NOT believe this is their fault. And you put this dang auto Startpage when launching window, I did NOT ask for that. I am so pissed, how do I get them all back? I had things I was working on that were very important. What else did you add to FF that I don't know about? I don't want your updates anymore. You screwed me big time. And I don't want the extensions YOU think I should have: Google, eBay, Bing, etc. wasting my space. I'm not the only one either, seen lots of complaints.

HOW DO I GET THOSE TABS BACK??????

Xfinity streaming works on Chrome and Safari but it stopped working on Firefox a few days ago. Why? I am using the latest Firefox version 140.0.4 (64 bit) and I can only receive my emails. The connection to the streaming service does not open. The Xfinity logo just sits there spinning and no connection. Please fix this. I much prefer Firefox to other browsers BUT....

I was able to load 1 email perfectly but the 2nd email from the same cPanel will not work. Auto detect and manual settings result in authorization error. The email password is my cPanel login so would be the same for both. Any ideas?

Starting yesterday 4-3-2025 my Thunderbird email keeps locking up and saying it is not responding. I can close it and open it and then work with it for 2 or 3 minutes and it will start not responding again. This is a consistent problem the last few days. I did check and it said there was an automatic update on 4-2-25. I am not sure if this had anything to do with it but i did go in and request an update about 2 hours ago today. This has not helped as I still consistentaly get the not responding problem. Please advise what I can do to fix this.]

Can’t login to EFTPS.gov using Firefox and Login.gov. I receive an SSL error message.

I exported a group email list from Thunderbird, edited the list (primarily by adding new names) saved the result as a csv. When I imported the list, first off I was NOT able to import the list as a separate group within my personal address book which was really annoying. I found another thread at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1498090 where someone was having the same problem. So it appears there is no easy way to create an new group in Thunderbird under my address book

More importantly, ALL the email addresses I imported were mangled for example k_boreen@hotmail.com became k+AF8-boreen+AEA-hotmail.com

Fortunately, it looks like I still have the old addresses in addition to the ones I imported but it's going to be a pain to get rid of the mangled addresses

I'm on version 128.12.0esr

Greetings...

I have noticed in my Windows 10 Task Manager that Firefox has an excessive number of processes active when Firefox is started with only one empty tab. By excessive, I found eleven (11) Firefox processes today, and I have yet to even start using Firefox.

I have only a simple Theme enabled and no Extensions enabled in my Firefox. I have tried deselection of the "Use recommended performance settings" but this does not appear to help. Disablement of my Theme increased the number of Firefox processes.

Any idea how I can significantly reduce the number of Firefox processes that appear in my Task Manager when I use Firefox? I really prefer to use Firefox as my go-to web browser, but lately it has become troublesome at times.

Thank you in advance for your help with the above problem. Take care...

What the title says. Firefox just isn't playing any sound whatsoever.

Troubleshooting:

• Volume mixer indicates that Firefox is using my speakers, along with all other apps. When playing a YouTube video, the green bar is not bouncing. However, all other programs that play sound do so successfully and their green bars are bouncing (see attachment).

• Other web browsers play sound successfully.

• Restarting Firefox and my computer did not help.

• Switching the default sound device and changing back did not help.

• Changing to headphones made no change.

• Tabs are not muted.

• Autoplay settings in about:preferences showed that audio and video were disabled, however changing this setting to allow video and audio, then restarting both Firefox and the computer did not fix the problem. I have no idea how that setting was even changed to begin with. O_o

• Started Firefox in troubleshooting mode; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in a different profile; still no sound.

• Started Firefox in private mode; still no sound.

• Tried ending the audiodg.exe process in task manager and restarted; still no sound.

• Double checked media.autoplay.blocking_policy, was set to 0.

• Double checked media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground -- changed from true to false, restarted Firefox; still no sound.

• Disabled hardware acceleration; still no sound.

• Refreshed Firefox; still no sound.

• Complete uninstall, including the usage of BCUninstaller to uninstall "leftovers". Reinstalled. Still no sound.

I have Apollo installed on my computer and I've reached out to them before for similar issues, but the dev was insistent that Apollo does not cause sound issues. I'm somewhat sceptical, but they're not being helpful at all so I thought I'd ask here, and disclose usage of Apollo so that all bases are covered.

Thank you for your time.

When I Hover over the Firefox Icon in my Taskbar, it shows a Thumbnail of the Windows I have open. If I have a bunch of windows it dispenses with the Thumbnails in favor of a Text based Description. I'd prefer it did that all the Time. I don't care much for the Thumbnails. Is there a Setting someplace that I can make Text the Default view ?
