I love Firefox for so many reasons. I was really excited to learn about the new VPN, but it didn't work. So I recently turned it back on and it still doesn't work. When I set it to an available country, then go to one of their websites, it still says the website is not available in my region. It still knows I'm here, and not there. What should I do? I'm thinking of buying Nord VPN, but I'd rather start here if I can.

Hello,

in Firefox 154, it looks like there are 2 places if you want to create exceptions to clearing data when exiting.

1. In about:preferences#privacy under "Browsing data": "Exceptions - cookies and site data"

2. and in about:preferences#history: "Exceptions - clear history on shutdown"

The 1st place allows more than just an exception to clearing data on exit, it allows negative exceptions too (i.e. "block" and "session-only"), whereas the 2nd place does not have those, and is only an exception to clearing data on exit.

having both of those dialogues is pretty confusing and seems duplicative.

what are the under the hood differences between them, and which one should be preferred for exceptions to clearing data on exit?

If I grab the vertical bar and drag it to the right, a gap appears between the sidebar and the web page. If I move it to the left, the web page covers the right side of the sidebar. In both cases the width of the sidebar does not change. I am on Windows 10 with Firefox Version 154.0.

I would be grateful for any help on this.

One of my "Login required" sites (Call it Site One) is prompting me with a username when I click into the Username entry box. Unfortunately, the username it's prompting me for is from "Site Two".

I have never saved a username for Site One. The username it's prompting me with is from a completely different domain name, Site Two.

I searched Usernames/passwords and found only one occurrence for the username it is prompting with. It's properly listed under the correct Site Two. I deleted it anyway to test. That made no difference: it still appears in the drop down for Site One (after restarting Firefox).

Just to be clear: Site One has no stored usernames or passwords. I've never stored a username or password for Site One. I have done so for Site Two (but again, that's now deleted). Yet this username, which is now not stored anywhere in Firefox, is still appearing as a prompt for Site One.

Lastly, this is not a new issue. This problem dates back months.

I'm getting frequent popup messages from McAfee, my email threat detector, that they've detected and stopped a threat, but none is identified. McAfee's chatbot wants me to create a new profile and add my email accounts to that profile. Will I lose access to all my currently saved email messages and calendar information?

I changed my password in my Juno account and have logged in via a browser with the new password several time. But Thunderbird attempts to connect continue to fail. I deleted the old password in Thunderbird in the Privacy & Security section thinking it would update when the new password works - unfortunately, it never works. I reviewed all the Juno settings in Thunderbird and they are all consistent with the Juno Support recommendations. Now what?

After the last update I keep bein forcefully logged out of my firefox account. And when I manage to log in, my saved passwords are all gone! After restarting firefox I'm logged out again. What's going on?

My phone is not in English which is making all these new apps come up which i need delete plus I call see any of my messages recive and phone calls and it keeps on going back to Firefox which keeps on going back to this quiz and blocks me out I can't also get my Google account

This first happened a few days ago and I successfully recovered my book marks from backup. It has now happened twice more. I can't be sure, but it seems possible that this happened each time after installing recent updates. Note that my recent history has also vanished.

Facebook emojis are not showing but the ability to select them remains. When you want to select an emoji on a post you move the mouse over the thumbs up icon. In the last couple days all I get is a black window. But I can still move the mouse over that window and see in text what I want to select.

I am running version 154.00

I have turned on safe mode and the emojis work normally. They all show up.

I have gone through all my add on's and none of them actually effect the outcome.

Picture attached to show the black window.

Hi, I can no longer login using Firefox (latest version for my mac 154.0) into a website that I had no issues logging into until now. Nothing that I am aware off changed on my computer during the last few months. I turned off protections for the website, but it doesn't help. It just sits there, no error message.

I can login into the same website, with the same exact credentials using Safari.

Any idea why this might happen? Does anyone else experiences the same?

Hiya, any re-arranging of the account list does not work. Been like this for months. Checking again today after Thunderbird version update it is still the same.

The drag and drop sort in setting works however the new list order is not applied to the actual account list.

Win11. Thunderbird 154.0 (64-bit).

Any ideas? Searches are pretty much only showing instructions on how to drag and drop. No solutions that I can see. Thanks in advance.

And once again an update messed up Firefox, at least I hope that is all that it messed up. Update 140.14 is the recent one I am referring too. My bookmarks are gone, I can't restore my computer to a previous version either because all file history has been deleted also. Can anyone help?

Version 154 (64 bit) creates a start menu shortcut in %appdata%/Microsoft/Windows/StartMenu/Programs/ with each and every launch. I have Firefox installed to "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\

Installing a shortcut at launch is undesirable to say the least.

Is there a way I can disable this behavior?
