Windows 8.1 Firefox 102.0.1 Clean install with a brand new profile
Noodling around about:config I discovered that the boolean value browser.sessionstore.enabled does not exist.
Interestingly though, it's numerical partner browser.sessionstore.interval does exist and was set to 15000. (15000 miliseconds = 15 seconds)
I was planning to increase this interval significantly. However...
It is my understanding that browser.sessionstore.enabled must be set to true for browser.sessionstore.interval to have any effect.
So what gives? Why is there a browser.sessionstore.interval set to 15000 when the prerequisite browser.sessionstore.enabled does not even exist?

Windows 8.1, Firefox 102.0.1
I recently discovered that it is quite true that some folks (including the folks at Mozilla) store cookies in DOM storage.
For example, it is impossible to log into your Mozilla account (because you are not accepting cookies!) if you have set dom.storage.enabled = false using the about:config editor.
So, as you can see, those sneaky folks at Mozilla :) like to obscure "cookie" collecting by using DOM storage cookies instead of the usual cookies everyone complains about and have to be warned about by law. (I love the "I don't care about cookies" extension, by the way. It shuts up that completely asinine annoyance.)
As a test of sorts I would like toggle the blocking of DOM cookies on a regular basis by toggling dom.storage.enabled. Rather than going back and forth and toggling the value manually using the about:config editor I would like to automate the process, possibly with a Windows batch file or a script. Also, possibly, (just for fun) I would like to take this concept of the automating the changing of certain preference values into building an extension. If I ever learn how to properly code one, that is.
So, my question is -- Where is the dom.storage.enabled value stored? (I examined the pref.js file but it is not there unless it has some other name.)
Blue across the top in the browser but the image of the theme extension shows the top to be black?
I deleted my authenticator when i reset my phone, how do i re-implement the information to get my access back? Or Can I?

I just tried to open a new window using File, New Window. It is GONE. I always use that. Now all I get are New Tab New Container Tab (grayed out so I can't select that) New Private window, some other stuff.
The same is true if I right click. I get: Open Link in New Tab Open Link in New Private window.
What did I do to cause these changes?

Have played FB games for years but Hidden Express suddenly stopped working correctly. I have tried everything I can think of with Fire fox browser. Last effort was a refresh. Hidden Express technical support gave me suggestions which I have done but no help. Any suggestions would be great. Fire fox and Chrome are the recommended browsers or this game.
will firefox work when windows 8 support stops in January 2023??

Ever since the update I have no visible Tabs but only bookmarks.... I can go to a website(tab created) and then go to another bookmark that is shown but when I close it it closes firefox. I've tried to download an older version such as 90.0 but it automatically downloads the newest vers. of 102. see attached pic... once upon a time the tabs were at top and if I decided to close it, it would close but it wouldn't close firefox, I would just go to another tab. Quit upgrading for the sake of upgrading! If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!! I need some assistance..

I've been a Firefox user for years. A few days ago I got a pop-up message box that read: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window. [Close Firefox] [Cancel]"
However, no matter how many times I click the "Close Firefox" button, the message box keeps coming back up and will not let me around it. I'd delete the program and install again, but my current Firefox has info in the Bookmarks I'd like to keep.
Any way to close the pop-up window and allow me back to the Firefox home page?
Thanks! Michael

The Firefox app on my iphone11PRO does not retain history of sites visited. When I go to settings and click on History, there is an icon with a folder that says Recently Closed. Below that, there is the notation "Websites you've visited recently will show up here." But... Nothing is there. When I look at Homepage, "Recently saved" and Recently Visited" are both turned on. What am I missing?

I recently had to reinstall firefox due to a few issues. Before the reinstall, when I opened a new tab it would open as my home page. After I reinstalled it, I was able to set up my homepage URL but there is no option for new tabs to open wth the same page. The only options for new tabs are blank page or the default firefox homepage. This was never an issue before the reinstall.
How do I fix this? Has the option been moved somewhere else?

It seems a Windows 8.1 update Aug 10, 2022 made my FF browser enlarge on my second screen from my laptop. Moving it back to the laptop makes it return to the correct size. I've tried the resolution, zoom, etc. Not sure what's happened to it to cause the enlargement. Zoom only works on the pages, not the tabs. It's the whole browser that is bigger, including the tabs. Open to suggestions.
