Hi, the home page shortcuts used to be bookmarked sites I selected, and they stayed in one place. After a recent update Firefox litters the page with recent searches, displacing the ones I saved. I can't see a setting to select recent search shortcuts ON/OFF, how to restore the old (and very useful) shortcuts?

Mir ist mein Computer abgestürzt , musste ihn neu aufsetzen . Nach der installation von W11 25H2 , neueste Firefox 64bit installiert und versucht Lesezeichen und Passwörter zu syncronisieren OHNE ERFOLG alles WEG WIESO ????

When I click a link in Firefox sometimes it will open up the new window in Chrome, how can I stop this? I don't want to make Firefox my default browser, as I use Chrome for that.

Hey there Mozilla team, Love the new free built-in VPN for the browser and Kit. :D But I have problems with enabling the VPN. I am on Linux Kubuntu and the VPN cannot start. Funnily enough when i turn on Mozilla VPN on device level the Browser VPN does manage the enable itself.

Also I have a question about the Mozilla VPN browser extension. Is support for Linux still being worked on? And could we see the support being implemented soon?

Have a wonderful Day

Could you make a shortcut to switch on between "dark mode" and "bright mode" in the mobile app browser + pc desktop browser?

There are enough webpages that don't show correctly in dark mode. It is not convenient to change the dark mode each time in settings!

Thank you

I like having the shortcuts to regular sites on the home page, but its usefulness is spoiled by every site I momentarily visit also appearing and replacing my pinned sites. This renders it basically useless. Can we please have a way of removing 'visited sites' from the shortcuts.

I'm having problems with AOL ad blockers. The program says that I have ad blocker plus turned on in my Firefox extensions. I turned everything off in the exension menu and still have the same issue.

Good Morning,

my Firefox /Mac OS blocks my NAS in my local network. otherwise I can contact my NAS via Firefox / Ipad OS. Where´s the problem, Firefox kann sich nicht mit dem Server auf 192.168.178.112 verbinden

I don´t find any switches to change.

Someone seems to have messed with the search tab. For better or worse, I use Google most of the time, The search tab used to default to Google. If I occasionally want a different search tool, e.g. Wikipedia, I would use the dropdown list. Now it seems to default to the last used search tool. How can I get rid of this "improvement"?

It seems that most times Firefox does an update, it deletes the Amazon UK search tool and does not provide any option to put it (or any Amazon tool) back. Where is it on the list of search tools?

All of a sudden I am finding that Firefox will not connect me to certain websites such as Walmart, Doordash and even Firefox itself. It looks like it's trying to but it just gets stuck. What's causing this and how do I fix it?

On Firefox I can no longer access some sites e.g. IRS.id.me and some bank accts - what to fix? I have been forced to use Microsoft Edge to get access.

Hi, The versions of Firefox since Feb 2026 have been extremely memory hungry on Windows 10, even though I have the option to restore tabs on demand set to TRUE in the config.

The memory hungriness has got so bad now that even on my 16GB machine, about once a week I find that my computer has suddenly run out of memory without warning and my entire screen goes black (not just within the Firefox window, the entire screen). When the computer gets into that state I am unable to use Ctrl+Alt+Del to get back to Task Manager, and the only way out is to hard-reset my computer.

This means that whenever I want to do anything else remotely memory hungry, such as running my research code, or a game, or a Zoom meeting, I have to kill Firefox first. But I sometimes even end up with black screen when trying to use Word or Excel alongside Firefox.

Essentially, Firefox is becoming unusable on my desktop, and its bookmark feature is borderline unusable on mobile now since the update a month ago made it impossible to change which folder I save my new mobile bookmarks in.

So if I have two more black screen clashes I think I will give up using Firefox entirely after being loyal to it for about 15 years. This is extremely disappointing.
