With the latest update, no matter if I've got it set to light or dark, the sidebar text and background are almost the same color. It's unreadable. There is no way to change just the sidebar, and it ignores the light/dark setting.

Every time I open a new site or webpage, the automatic translation window pops up. I don't need translations and I have to choose "don't translate this page" again and again. I've searched everywhere on Firefox and I can't find a way to stop this. It is extremely intrusive and annoying. I don't understand why Firefox should decide for me what I want and what I don't want. Has anybody solved this problem.

Chrome user returning to Firefox here; I'm experiencing an issue where most pages would take at least 4 to 6 seconds to load, especially for heavy media sites like YouTube which could take 6 seconds for it to be barely usable, and 10 or 13 seconds for it to finish loading. My internet speed is 1gb at most and 800 Mbps at the least.

It loads sites like Reddit pretty fast, like 3-5 seconds interestingly. It's largely YouTube and other sites where the pages load infuriatingly slowly, and Chrome Mask did not helped with this.

Here are the things I did: Refreshed Firefox, started in Troubleshoot mode, installed Chrome Mask for YouTube (Did not work), disabled DNS, closed all foreground apps except Firefox, used a different profile and enabled/disabled hardware acceleration.

Specs: CPU: i5-3570k GPU: GTX 1070 Ti RAM: 16gb DDR3 OS: Windows 10 Hard Drive type: SSD

Final notes, it says I use Microsoft Defender Antivirus but I am actually using Malwarebytes. I also use uBlock Origin which is the entire reason why I permanently switched from Chrome to Firefox.

Hi - Firefox placed an 'Old Firefox data' folder on my desktop and I am unable to delete it. I'ver tried third party apps, logging in as administrator, command line delete, uninstalling FF but am still stuck with it and my network settings are wrecked so I can't re-establish connection to the internet on that machine. Anyone with any suggestions as to how I get rid of the 'Old Firtefox data' folder ? Many thanks...

To sign into my Amazon account, I'd like to enter only my email address and my password.

But I have to enter my email address and my passkey. A verification code is then sent to my email address. I then need to enter that verification code to complete signing into Amazon.

On the Amazon's Sign in page (where I enter my passkey), it says "This request comes from the app 'firefox.exe' by "Mozilla Corporation".

How do I disable the two-factor (aka two-step) authentication for Amazon in Firefox?
