Until recently I had no problem with Captcha. Now I do, and it seems connected to recent Firefox update. I have repeatedly reported broken site to FF. I am able to log into the same accounts (such as The Guardian) on Google Chrome, but not on Firefox. I prefer Firefox because it is easier for me to read and navigate. I have read all the help and community articles and none work. Several community members mention that Google has owned Captcha since spring 2024. Has it made additional changes? Are you working with them to resolve this issue? I want to keep using Firefox but this is frustrating. I'll admit I have never liked Captcha, and wish someone would come up with a better option for it.

My computer restarted on me (as always, this piece of garbage new laptop has to restart every other day for some stupid update or battery issue) and Firefox, despite still knowing my history and latest websites visited, does not have an option to open the many closed tabs.

I don't want to go back to Chrome, but there's basically only one thing I need from a browser and it's insurance against my devices turning off and leaving me without any of my tabs.

Hi, It is not a question but a bug report. From the version 131 up today the Nightly stopped to initialize quickly as before. Certainly, it is not the windows 10 21H2, the antivirus, the firewall or anything other similar internal problem, just because the Edge and the Opera are working fine and they are four times more rapid than the Nightly. It is just to say, that your procedures to improve the security is transforming the Firefox in a mirror of the usefulness Chrome. I take the time to open the home page of Firefox = 9 seconds, against 0.28 s of the Opera. So, I think you should rethink the security and other hidden setting options of the Nightly, because as is, it is very bad. The big thing that the Geeks from silicon Valley did not have in mind is: There are lot of people that need to find extremely fast a configuration, like to export/import passwords from older browsers, or computers, without need to replace one by one. There are many other things that you decided to hide, but I don't know why. Anyway, I will try to update one more time, then, unfortunately I could not use the Firefox anymore. Further, I want a few add-ons, either if there is any percentage of insecurity. A few times we need afford risks to understand and discovery other problems in the web. We cannot do it anymore with the Nightly.

Microsoft Edge just had an update and now when I turn on laptop I hear audio then when I go to task bar and click on the audio the pop up appears and on top of the standard pop up there is a video playing and shows the Microsoft Edge icon. How do I get rid of that crap? How do I disable it? I cannot watch any video without having the Edge audio blasting over the videos I want to watch. Ugg microsoft is horrible and Edge stinks.

I am told that when FireFox closes it is supposed to delete a file called parent.lock in FireFox's Profile Folder. The parent.lock file does not delete when I close FireFox and consequentially it will not allow me to open a new instance of FireFox. If what I say is in fact true, what can I do to fix it? If what I say isn't the case, what can I do to make FireFox open a new instance of FireFox once I close it.

I sure hope I have explained this so it can be understood. When I close FF and then try to open it again, I get a dialog box saying FF is already open and has to close first. Not sure if those are the exact words but I was told that the parent.lock was to be deleted and that isn't happening. What can I do? Thanks.

Anysearchmanager (ASM) now appears as my search engine when I log on even though duckduckgo is still designated as my default in Firefox. At no time have I elected to use the unsecure ASM. It does not appear in my applications folder and I can't get to it via disable/delete extensions in Firefox. I can still access duckduckgo if I manually override ASM, but that is a pain. And ASM does not show up on Malwarebytes scans.

How can I purge ASM?

Thanks for your help!!!

Nowhere AT ALL does it warn you that it will WIPE your current installation and RESET everything. I had no ideas and had not saved up the content of my OneTab extension in a while, FUCKING THANK YOU FOR THAT.

That's it. Fuck you.
