I'm experiencing an issue with the drag and drop functionality in my browser that's significantly affecting my workflow. Previous behavior:

I could drag any selected text to any area of the browser window to open a new search tab I could lightly drag links anywhere to open them in new tabs

Current behavior:

Now I must drag content specifically to the tab bar at the top to open new tabs This extra precision required is frustrating and slowing down my browsing

I haven't intentionally changed any settings, and this change happened suddenly. This functionality was extremely useful for me as I frequently need to open multiple tabs while researching. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is this a new "feature" or a bug? Most importantly, does anyone know how to restore the previous drag and drop behavior? Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

Hi. I have a problem with my K9 mail on my HP chromebook. The computer freezes and I have to reset it and it only happens when sending email from K9 mail. Do anyone know how to fix this?

I'm using Windows Live Mail 2012 (which yes is pretty old) and one of the problems manifests itself in Firefox so let me describe this, I'm asking here because I don't think Microsoft ever supports anything any more so yes I'm grasping at straws but here goes. If I click on an email preview in my email client it proceeds to try and open that content in an almost infinite set of windows. If instead I click on a web link in that content it proceeds to attempt to open an almost infinite number of tabs of copies of this content in Firefox, I'm not saying this is the fault of the browser but it's a weird problem. Finally if I try and open the website that I need to use to manage the memory usage of this limited memory cable provider email account, the website no longer processes that correctly either so after a short time I will run out of memory entirely and lose usage of the account so you can see why solving this is an urgent matter for me. (I already contacted the cable provider tech support and their considered opinion was I ought to pound sand since they no longer provide email accounts any more for anyone. I have a peculiar feeling that one possible answer involves doing complex editing in the Registry, I think I'd rather back out the update (although MSC wil probably just overwrite it again in 6 months anyway) but I guess either would be acceptable, I'm just wondering how come I'm the only person in the known universe who has seen this weird issue?

I've been having issues with Thunderbird randomly hanging over the last few weeks. It's always been slow to upload all my gmail messages, so I let it get done with that before I start reading. However, now it randomly decides to hang forever. It generally happens when I delete or move an email to another folder. It doesn't complete the function. I can click on other emails, but it doesn't open them. The UI just sits there with the blue progress bar shimmering away, forever. None of the window control work (File, X, etc.). I have to use the Task Manager to end the Thunderbird task. When I start it up again, the message will be moved or deleted, and I can view more messages until it decides to hang again. This happens about four times per day.

I have an MSI GS75 Stealth 9SF laptop, running intel Core i7, Windows 11 (up to date), and the most current version of Thunderbird.

I didn't see anyone else commenting on Thunderbird hanging frequently, so I'm wondering if it's just me.

I browse using full screen in Firefox. After closing the app and reopening, the browsing window is just 1/4th the size requiring me to expand it, every time. Is this a bug?

Hello, I am looking to check the box that reads "use the selected profile without asking at startup" and unable to get to it.

Can you please help me by telling me how to find it?

Thank you. Maria Daly

My Thunderbird crashes at start-up. Can not open it or do anything is always crashing.

I keep getting a pop-up for"sign documents online" in my Firefox browser. Several others have reported the same. It overlays the browser content so I can't use Firefox at all. My only option seems to be to uninstall Firefox and use a different browser. Is there a fix?

I use Thunderbird Mail Client to access multiple Synology MailPlus accounts and accounts from Gmail and other services

Everytime ! Weekly! After Microsoft pushes another update I have to reconfigure Thunderbird to access Synology MailPlus accounts to receive mail. Mail on GMAIL, SPECTRUM and other mail services are not affected.

Microsoft is breaking something preventing only Thunderbird from retrieving mail from MailPlus Server.

I have to remove then add the accounts back in, Retrieving saved Profiles does not work to fix the problem.

Used to be able to access my Xfinity account on FireFox. Now, when I try to log in (after I type in User Name and Password and hit "Enter",) I get a blank screen except for the words: "a rendering error occurred: ." in the upper lefthand corner of the screen.

I am using a MacBook Air running Monterey 12.7.6.

I’m getting a drop-down from Firefox when I’m on Firefox that says “read and sign a documents without leaving Firefox“. It dropped down window covers a document that I want to print and I cannot access the print button as a result. The drop-down has no way of removing it or moving it. How can I get rid of this drop-down?

I've been having an issue with picture-in-picture (PiP) mode where the subtitles and rewind/fast-forward buttons (rr/ff) won't follow the video into the small player for Disney+ specifically. I have no issues with YouTube or any other site. The subtitles and rr/ff just stay with the original video player on the site while the video is in PiP mode. I can see the subtitle button on the PiP player, but it is grayed out and I can't click it. I've updated both Firefox and my computer (Windows 11) and reinstalled Firefox, cleared cookies and cache, and still no dice. Any advice? Thanks!

(In the screenshot, the PiP player isn't showing video, but I think that's just because of Disney's anti-piracy software - I can see the video in the PiP player on my screen.)
