Web pages keep refreshing when I go to scroll down (ie move towards the bottom of the page). It's gotten worse (more sensitive) since the update. It usually only happens right after a page has finished loading. I'm definitely not pulling down. I like having the pull down to refresh feature but this is happening nearly every time. Thank you

The Back arrow/button in the address bar is unclickable, greyed out and no longer functional.

Is there a specific fix we can make in about:config to regain function of the back arrow/button? A response from a person (or people) would be appreciated.

Your really do not want as much detail from me as possible. I guarantee that. ("Everything is connected" should be enough of an explanation.) But you ask for details . . . .

This is specifically about updates (not also installation). Which update and and when I do not know, although it could be Microsoft fooling around with Firefox functionality. OR it could be ESR being updated when updates have been disabled. So that raises the question about the extent to which Microsoft is also configuring Firefox when FF is the default browser. (We deserve to know.) I have changed back to normal updates, and will try to disable the incessant frequent updates which always include undoing new standardized FF configurations that were labor intensive to find fixes for the first time. Fortunately, I have kept a file of many of them. Apparently A.I. (oops, maybe it was Firefox) has agreed to give access to Microsoft to interfere with how Firefox is configured when Firefox is the default browser, regardless of the FF version,

Specific details (I will try to make this as repetitive, overly simplified, and superfluous as the auto a.i. responses though I most likely will fail): And if expressing dissatisfaction is violating the rules and guidelines, then please understand I am human, and do not like everything I do online being the result of 1/0 on/off/humanizing A.I. (including genetically . . . oh yeah, we all know where this free "training" of a.i. is going that we are all being used to do without our consent - and worse).

The back arrow/button on the address bar is no longer clickable and it is greyed out. It is apparently another new Firefox standardization that is not one size fits all. The easy solution would have been for the people who do not like the feature to be advised to remove the button/arrow from the address bar. But, no. Instead, at some point, a new update standardized the arrow/button to become unclickable and dysfunctional.

I found a question about how to make the back arrow/button functional again. The question was not why has it been made dysfunctional. The answer was why it had been made dysfunctional.

In short, some people found the arrow/button to be problematic. A.I. said people were losing information they had input to a form, when they used the back arrow/button before completing the form.

So what did FF (or A.I.?) do? Made the arrow/button dysfunctional for everyone because a few folks in lala land did use common sense, and simply remove the button from the address bar so they would not be tempted to use it and lose information.

Why was that a solution instead of Support (A.I.?) telling people who found the arrow/button to be problematic, to remove the arrow/button from the address bar? Really? Why not advise people to make the feature dysfunctional for themselves - instead of the solution being to make it dysfunctional for everyone who uses Firefox Browser.

Here is the basic, simple, question and content I would have preferred, and I'm guessing many actual people would have too.:

Again:

The Back arrow/button in the address bar is unclickable, greyed out and no longer functional. Is there a specific fix we can make in about:config to regain function of the back arrow/button? A response from a person (or people) would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Jesus Christ when is this going to be fixed? On latest Android version and latest Firefox version. Has been like this for months. Going back one steps takes you back two steps. Makes it impossible to Google anything.

First of all, I thank the great volunteers that have structured this great browser- Mozilla Firefox despite the persecutions from the giant Microsoft. I love Mozilla Firefox and I support it. I am of those who wrote petitions against Microsoft for undue negative manipulation of Mozilla Firefox. My petitions went to the European Union, Federal Trade Center, Independent Press Organization etc. The issue of my complaint about Mozilla Firefox is the non-functionality of Mozilla Firefox's Bookmark and History: The bookmark and History has had problem for a long-time. Most people who use Firefox admire the Bookmark and History. Once you open your computer window, on the left of the window, there is a list of your bookmark and you do not struggle to search for your favorite bookmark as in Microsoft Edge or Google It is there on your left. It is the gold standard of structuring a browser. No browser can compete with Mozilla Firefox in this respect. This is the reason Mozilla Firefox remains one of the best browsers ever. If it is Microsoft or any other group, they would have rushed to mend this defect. I know that Mozilla is made up of volunteers. Could any of the engineering volunteers see what I am saying?

Beginning weeks ago, when I open the Firefox app to browse, it’s always taking me to Google. I do not prefer to use Google. Why is my Firefox app always bringing up Google and how do I change it?
