I'm on windows 10 in EU with the free extended support. Everytime I open a new tab a banner appears asking me to enable backup to prepare for windows 11. I DON'T want to enable backup. I clicked dismiss but it keeps showing up all the time, it's incredibly annoying.

When I sign in to Firefox it puts a message up saying Microsoft is no longer supporting Windows 10 and telling me to backup my info to get ready for Windows 11. I'm not planning to get Windows 11 as my PC won't support it. Should I ignore this message?

For some reason, firefox keeps asking me to backup my info to "get ready for windows 11" [see attached image]. I have back ups disabled, I don't want to have firefox back up my information.

I click the [x] and it just comes back with every new tab.

Stop. [Expletive]. Harassing. Me.

Every eMail I get is now being marked as read when I move it to trash, including Spam, even if it is not read. I do not want this behavior. I did not change any settings. Thunderbird started doing this automatically, several days ago. I want everything that is unread to remain unread, ESPECIALLY Spam. I asked this question 8 months ago, but I have received no answers or support.

IT HAS BECOME VERY FRUSTRATING TO USE MY HOME PAGE WITH THE LITTLE BOX FOR EACH WEB SITE I GO TO REGULARLY. IF I CLICK ON THE ONE FOR MY BANK, MULTIPLE ONES ARE APPEARING WHEN I GET OUT OF THE SITE. CAN I GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS VERSION? I AM ON WINDOWS 10. I SELECTED AN ITEM IN YOUR TOPICS SELECTION, BUT I DID ONLY SO I CAN CONTINUE AND SUBMIT MY QUESTION. NONE OF THE TOPICS SEEM TO FIT MY SITUATION. I AM ALSO RECEIVING ADVERTISING LITTLE BOXES. HOW DO I STOP THAT/ I NEVER HAD THESE ISSUES WITH THE PREVIOUS VERSION. THANK YOU.

I got the message about this new included outgoing VPN but I don't see any such symbol on the right side?? I think this leaves a user confused and poorly informed about what is causing this absence.

As of March 24, my Mozilla Thunderbird email seemingly cannot connect to the internet. Therefore, I have no ability to receive of send emails. I am a member of the Best Buy tech support capability and their technicians spent several hours trying to correct this issue and finally stated that I need to seek actual Mozilla Thunderbird technician support to correct the lack of connectivity.

My in house security team, recently suggested that Firefox be marked for automatic updates. I did so reluctantly and within three weeks, my feelings were confirmed. I logged in and hit the firefox button. Not found. OK, where did they move it? Program Files. OK. I opened Firefox. No configuration, no passwords, and no bookmarks.

The help to restore previous bookmarks does not work, presumably because the file was deleted with everything else in Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox.

You should not force an update that will cause the user to lose work -- never, ever.

If you're going to move the installation directory, the user should get a chance to backup first. I did not get that chance and I've lost work. Further, I've lost confidence in your product. I can no longer recommend Firefox to others as I've done for decades.

This is not a good day for you and your product.

My Firefox appears to have replaced site security info at the left of the address bar, with a search function. I need it back. How do I revert to the security info it had previously? I also have a separate web search bar, and do not want web search from the address bar.

i go to chrome have no problem getting and keeping Facebook i have closed and enable the extensions removed some and it either does not work or takes for ever in the version of Facebook. . I keep checking if Facebook is down there are limited problems but i do not see the problems in Chrome. if this keeps up i will be going to chrome which i really do not want to

Since I upgraded from FF128-esr to FF140-esr I always get the "Firefox is being updated by another instance" This is really driving me crazy, as I checked / did / .... everything (and even more) I found on the internet related to that.

Nothing helps !

Creating and using a new default profile didn't help

Finally I ended up uninstalling FF completely (making sure no -zero- leftovers remained in ProgramFiles, AppData a.s.o.), and reinstalled FF140.7.0-esr freshly. After installation I started FF immediately with the created default profile (only existing one) --> SAME THING : "Firefox is being updated by another instance"

And this is really a FF140 thing, when I go back to FF128, on the same computer, same profiles, ...., the problem is gone.

I would like to know in detail what checks are really done by FF to decide to give that "Firefox is being updated by another instance"
