After the update to 115.0.1 the hourglass symbol ('Wait') won't stop blinking. I've restarted and checked the task manager. Low power usage for everything and restarting changed nothing. ??

Thanks.

Is there a way to force Firefox updates within a specified time window via group policy? The ADMX templates appear to allow enabling or disabling updates or enforcing background updates, but we are not seeing an option in Group Policy to configure a delay or time window for searching for app updates.

My firefox installation always run in English with all of its interface elements being in English. One of the recent updates introduced a weird behavior - some of the UI became Russian. I seem to have fixed/bypassed the issue last time it happened https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1415337 but nothing works this time.

Most of my firefox is in English, but some elements such as tab titles in devtools, browser popups "do you want to leave this page", tooltips in this very text form where I'm typing right now - are in Russian for no apparent reason.

I have another profile on this firefox installation and it's completely in English as intended. I tried to check for what changed in about:config, looking for "language" or "locale" string, and there's nothing that stands out. I've tried clearing startup cache, switching language back and forth, restarting firefox.

Any suggestions?

I have gone through basically all of the troubleshooting and fixes possible to get firefox to start. I uninstalled firefox completely including the profile folders from both the local and roaming locations, I've tried starting in safe mode/troubleshooting mode. All it does when I try opening is flash the window for half a second. In task manager it pops up for half a second, I can't even check the properties, cancel the process tree, etc. Even worse: there is no crash reports/files.

I view a page, for example, news.yahoo.com. I usually scroll down a way, possibly to the bottom. I step away, and when I come back I want to refresh the page. Up until about two weeks ago, when I press F5 to refresh the page, it would automatically scroll back to the top of the page. Now it seems to go to (maybe) a percentage of the page based on where it was last scrolled. I then have to manually scroll back to the top to see the latest headlines. Was Firefox behavior changed? Is there a setting to control page refresh behavior?

Hello I want to disable/hide or at leas make smaller the GIANT "detail" bar that shows up on the history manager and difficults reading trough the history. There seems to be no options available in the toolbar and can't find any on about:config either. Perhaps there's a key I can add in about:config to change this?

Thank you

This is infuriating. I have hundreds of Pocket saves, and a couple dozen Pocket tags. They did not/do not migrate when I do what Firefox tells me to do: log in with my Firefox account.

How does one get their saved Pocket articles to show up after being logged in with my Firefox account?

It seems after a firefox update that I can no longer log into a website that I have as a favorite place on firefox and have visited many times before. I'm not very computer literate but I have checked settings within firefox and don't see where it might be blocked. Next I imagine you might ask for a screenshot of the website and i do have one but all it shows is after I enter my password, it displays an "OK" small screen and does not login. Do you have any suggestions for Firefox is my favorite browser but I have to use another lately to check the website I have a problem with and only on Firefox. My 5 other browsers can log me in to the website. Thanks for your time and suggestions.

So, whenever I open Firefox it will act normally and then after a second close by itself and when I reopen it, it will be in remote mode. I know how to fix this via about:config and do this every time, but I would much prefer a permanent fix, nothing else on Firefox or my computer indicates something else is going on, its just this. I've even at one point uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and it didn't help.

Why can't I use FF previous version with having to update or FF automatically updating? After the 110 versions, all the updates are no longer compatible with the software I depended on using with FF. No other browser worked with the Instaverse Bible software, and now, FF doesn't work with it after the updates from the 110 version. Tried reinstalling 110 version and FF updated it without my request to do so.
