(If any relevance, I'm on Macos 12 Monterey) 'Installation and updates' seemed the nearest topic due to the 'update' part of it, since this seems to only have been happening since this version, or I have simply not noticed due to not having needed to know. But if you look at my two screenshots, you will see the issue. There simply is no About Firefox on my firefox. Neither directly listed on the menu, nor as part of the 'help' sub menu.

Is there, for the sake of learning, a simple fix, so that I donlt have to uninstall/re-install? or an 'about config' type fix? Screenshot 1 shows the menu Screenshot 2 shows help sub-menu As you can see, absolutely no About Firefox

And, only potential issue may be, as you'll see from the share data upload is that I've a lot of tabs open, as I've got a lot to get through toniught, and tomorrow. So, maybe, t=though doubtfully, it is because it isn't handling the tabs and this caused a menu entry to be missing? Surely not likely.

Help with outdated Firefox installations in corporate enviroment

Hello everyone,

i would like to ask if anyone have/had similar experience as me.

Im managing browsers in my company (Chrome, Edge , Firefox) via on-prem/Cloud solutions, approximately 300k users.

We are observing that most of the users are no longer using Firefox that often , leaving Firefox unpatched and therefore risking potential malware/ other attacks.

Of course that brings attention from our security team and now , we have to deal with it :)

Option to remotely uninstall (Intune , SCCM) is option number one of course, yet not the desired one.

We would like to check if there is an option how to "silently" update all the browsers with version N-1. We have looked into scripting, resulting into UAC prompt all the time, which is , of course, not desired.

Does anyone had similar experience, where you had to deal with similar use case ?

Please let me know

Have a great one you all !! Tomas

I want to know why, when I have my setting set to be NOTIFIED ONLY of updates and let me choose when to install them that Mozilla overrode those setting and installed an update that you knew would crash my browsing and force a browser restart. I had to re-signin on multiple websites, losing the pages I was on in the process and setting back my research for hours. I am beyond pissed and I demand an explanation.

Hi, I noticed that my Firefox version has just been force-updated, on two of my computers, even though I had the automated updates unselected. I also noticed that the new version had added an opt-out option to use "AI" for my tabs which I do not want. There may be other settings that have appeared like this forcing "AI" on me and I am not going to check all of them. I will uninstall Firefox as it is no longer respecting my privacy and autonomy as a user, following the full-blown embrace of "genAI" which goes completely opposite Firefox values such as privacy, ethics, environmental responsibility and respect of their users. I might come back when Firefox goes back to being a privacy and environmentally-friendly browser.

Large part of a local folder sub folder disapeared after updating to 143.1.0

Hello, After the last update 143.1.0 a large part of one of a sub folder in my local folders disappeared. I restored my recent backup but still the part of the folder is missing. I used a copy of my profiles made on my laptop with no results. I completely uninstalled Thunderbird then copied my backup with no luck. Finally, I had to make a full image restore to get Thunderbird back to where it was before 143.1.0 I updated to 144.0 with no change. Each time I open TBird, it asked me to install the 143.1.0 update and if I do then the same happens, a big part of one of my local folders subfolders disappears. Strangely, on my laptop that is basicly a duplicate of my PC thunderbird everything is ok with the last 143.1.0 update. What is in the 143.1.0 update to cause these problems, is there a command to reject long file names.  ? Has anyone experienced this problem otherwise I will be stuck with update # 143.1.0 for years Thank you Douglas Noades

Hello,

I use a Powershell script to manually install a Firefox update.

Starting with version 128.10.xx and higher, Update.exe expects different parameters, but I'm not sure what the parameter names mean (see screenshot).

Can someone explain to me what I need to pass for “arg-version” and “wich-invocation”? All other parameters were already present in the previous version of Update.exe, and I understand those, but unfortunately I don't know exactly what I need to pass for these two.

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

For some time now (since a certain update), the sound notification for new messages has not been working. Everything is set up correctly, the sound is coming from the disk. The “Browse” button does not work. “Play” does not work either, even for the default (system) sound. It looks like a program error.

Od pewnego czasu (którejś aktualizacji) nie działa powiadomienie dźwiękowe o nowej wiadomości. Mam wszystko dobrze ustawione, dźwięk z dysku. Nie działa przycisk "Przeglądaj". Nie działa "Odtwórz" - także dla dźwięku domyślnego (systemowego). Wygląda na błąd programu.
