I am having a problem with FireFox: using DuckDuckGo as a search engine I only get a white page with a search window at the top as a result. DuckDuckGo works fine in Safari as I am typing this. Other search engines work fine in FireFox.

I have tried running FireFox in troubleshoot mode and then manually disabling extensions one by one but the issue persists. It makes no difference whether I am using the URL box, the search box or the DuckDuckGo website: the result is always the same. I am not using Metamask and I have no VPN installed.

Any idea is greatly appreciated.

I was wondering how I can remove redirect to one login I have some medical websites that were associated with my school account through one login, but my school account was suspended after I graduated. I can access some of these medical websites because it automatically redirects to one login, preventing me to even use my personal login information. I tried to remove the cookies and the history but still I keep getting redirected.

Dear Mozilla Team,

I’ve been a loyal Firefox user for over 15 years, and it’s been my go-to browser for both personal and work-related tasks. However, recently I’ve encountered persistent issues where several websites—especially work-related ones—have stopped functioning properly. I’ve tried troubleshooting steps like clearing the cache, allowing cookies, and disabling tracking protections, but the problems persist.

Reluctantly, I switched to Google Chrome as it currently offers better stability, but it’s been hard to abandon Firefox after so many years. I truly value Mozilla’s mission and privacy-focused approach, and I’d love to return if these issues are addressed.

Could you please look into these compatibility problems? I’d appreciate any guidance or updates on fixes. Thank you for your hard work—I hope to support Firefox again soon.

Best regards, Gustavo

I'm currently on Firefox Nightly on desktop running the latest version. I wanted to know how to turn my Firefox Tools icons back from just having icons at the bottom to the list of icons with their names like before. I've attached both images, one from another computer running an older version of nightly which is what I want to return back to.

If there isn't a way to change it back, I would like to suggest this as an option to be able to easily turn back to a list type.

I have three email accounts thru (comcast, gmail and outlook). I have each of these email accounts bookmarked on my Firefox page. It used to be all I had to do was click on the bookmarked tab and the email account opened immediately. But, lately, each of these three accounts requires a sign-in before it will open my email account. One even requires a two-step process requiring I list a different email to receive a code to open the current email account I'm trying to open. This is a recent occurence and I wondered if it was something Firefox included in their more recent version of Firefox? If so, please tell me how to get rid of this sign-in process! I have many security processes to protect my accounts and do not need this additional required sign-in process! Please tell me how I can get rid of this requirement. It is a pain to have to re-sign-in each time I try to access my email which I do several times a day. Thank you for any help you can give me to fix this problem. Barbara Thomas

If I turn on "always use private surfing", can I not have shortcuts on my Firefox landing page?

I had six shortcuts on my landing page; however, I turned on "always be incognito", and my shortcuts disappeared, and I do not see an option to add them back.

Are the two mutually exclusive?

When I didn't know what I was doing, within Settings for Firefox desktop browser for Windows 10 where you can make associations for file types or applications, I began putting choices in that I felt made sense at the time. I don't think I've made the best choices and I would like to change that entire section with the heading Content Type to the defaults that would have appeared in the Action column. Is there a way I can return the defaults only for Content Type without resetting everything in the browser to the state it was first in before I began customizing some areas? Thanks.
