Hi,

Firefox version: 139.0.4 (64-bit) OS: Windows 11

I have been having issues where Firefox tab will just crash out for no reason it appears and it happens at random times and once the tab start to crash, and I restore it, it will crash again and again. The only way tog et out of the loop is to restart Firefox.

I have tried: Refreshing/Reset, Clearing Cache and History removing all themes, disabling extensions, disabling my anti virus. Turning off hardware acceleration didn't make any different.

I currently have 2 extensions enabled: uBlock Origin 1.64.0 and Bitwarden Password Manager 2025.5.0

In the about:Crashes I have reported them all and they seem to have the same type of reasons in the Raw data/Minidump which are: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ

Any help as to what to try next?

My AOL account has a single SPAM folder; however, in Thunderbird, the contents of that folder are divided between the folders Bulk and Trash. In synchronization settings, I don't see the "Spam" folder of AOL, and in fact when I subscribe or check Synchronization & Storage I don't see the simple "Spam" folder that is on AOL. I don't have ANY filters active in my AOL account in Thunderbird or directly on AOL. I've been using AOL since its inception, and Thunderbird for as long as I can remember as well. I'm not sure when the folder structure of my AOL account on Thundbird changed, probably a couple of years ago. It's not a huge thing, but I'm thinking that if not resolved it could turn into a huge thing.

I'd like to just have the single SPAM folder under my AOL account in Thunderbird just like it is on AOL. No need for it to be split into Bulk and Trash.

Hello,

I have not found an answer to my question anywhere, nor can I solve the problem I have encountered on my own. The thing is that when I log into my YouTube account and then close the browser, turn off the tablet, after restarting I have to go through the process of logging in to my YouTube account again. I think the browser is great. I am talking about the Firefox Focus browser. This problem does not occur on Firefox, but for my old hardware it is too slow.

when playing my game the program keeps stopping and starting. Every 7 to 9 seconds while playing my game I get kicked to the task bar and it stops responding for a few seconds and when I click to put it back on my screen and again 7 or 9 seconds I have to repeat the same thing. Bottom line is the gaming program keeps starting and stopping for a few second. This is the only program doing this. This started doing this on June 28 2025 after a new Firefox update. I played this same game on Google and it worked just fine.

Need help maintaining Trust in FF

We have recently been caught in an apparent marketing test simulation by an AI provider who we would never expect to prevent productivity resulting in great harm to those I support. So when emails were going nowhere and set MFA was systematically destroyed -- I turn to FireFox ESR personal to ensure my data remains secure among those world class suppliers I have trusted for years.

I trust FF but the subtle ways in which our WIndows10Pro is trying to wipe out all relationship with other OEMs - I want to be sure that FF is set up as it should be. It appears even in FF private browser window - that the OS or Copiliot is attempting to destroy that also as part of what is some scheme according to bank Fraud experts I've consulted as a scheme to destroy Win10 home office usage and force move to WIn11.

My home PC has supported many many individuals and organizations. I cannot believe what I have been put through,. Still rebuilding relationships with the worldclass firms I rely on.

What are the definitive steps that will ensure that data cannot be manipulated and OS cannot randomly overwrite desperately needed Disabilty / Accessiblity changes needed to even see the "simulations?' at 1-2point font. This activity is allegedly CoPilot - which would be the last place I would suspect. The violations of trust and data integrity go way beyond what you might imagine.

How to protect from any and all deceptive practices where what I"m seeing and doing are not being alterered in such ways that prevent me from supporting a Hipaa client because a rogue software misrepresnts and destroys valuable data and more importantly TRUST.

Part of undoing damage due to Coplilot is to follow those I trust - so regarding Firefox I download it from official Mozilla / Firefox - current ESR version for Personal use. - I try now to do most work that requires a modicum of importance - and still each moment there's some deceptive something or other trying to deceive me into excluding Firefox.

I'm not here to blame Copilot - and MS accountability for this is reported via the public domain and several professionals I've consulted. Feeling handicapped with handicapped devices. Totally hostage to a system that wants to ensure everything we do is via Microsoft.

There's a time and a place for security we can trust. I had security keys and MFA out the wazoo. It's taken amonth to even begin to get back to a secure wiped licensed Win10 system. And the first job was to ensure the OS could not mess with Firefox. Something is tearing at that already. My only involvement with MS at this point is to ensure they don't mess with FF's integrity. The FF account is an outlook address so pls LMK if that is hurting rather than helping.

I cant do anything if trust is violated and data is changed intentionally by a rogue software. Plus the overwritiung of accessiblity / disabilty modifications is unconscionable.

HOW TO KNOW I'M NOT MISSING THE LATEST TRICKS DESIGNED to take away FIrefox or others who we trust.

Persistent Web Permissions Issue (Location, Microphone, etc.) on Samsung J3 6 within Firefox Browser - Affecting Multiple Websites

To Whom It May Concern,

I am Muhammad Rizwan, a user of a Samsung J3 6 mobile phone, and I am experiencing a persistent and widespread issue with web permissions specifically within the Firefox browser on my device. This problem is not limited to a single website but affects multiple online services requiring various permissions.

The details of the issue are as follows:

Location Access Problem:

Despite granting explicit permission for location access on various websites, including Yandex Maps, within Firefox, the sites consistently display messages such as "Unable to determine your location" or similar error notifications.

I have verified that my phone's general location settings are enabled and set to "High Accuracy Mode." GPS signals are generally stable in my area.

Microphone and Other Permissions:

Beyond location, I am encountering similar difficulties with microphone access and other web permissions (e.g., camera, if applicable) on different websites accessed via Firefox. Websites request and are seemingly granted permission, but the functionality does not activate or remains unusable.

This issue is not confined to one specific website; it appears to be a systemic problem affecting nearly all websites that require these permissions when browsed through Firefox.

I have already attempted the following basic troubleshooting steps:

Cleared Firefox's cache and site-specific data for affected websites.

Restarted the Firefox browser.

Restarted the phone.

Confirmed that my phone's date and time settings are correct.

Verified that I am not using any VPN or proxy services.

The inability to properly utilize these web permissions within Firefox on my Samsung J3 6 is significantly hindering my ability to access and use various online services effectively. I kindly request your assistance in investigating this matter and providing guidance on a potential resolution.

Thank your for your time and attention to this urgent issue.

Sincerely, Muhammad Rizwan Email: mrizwan9@yandex.com

I am moving thunderbird account to a new computer. After downloading and getting to login screen, I click 'done'. The programme only starts to re-assess/re-test the config. This happens whether manual or automatic configuration is chosen. When I click 'done', it only goes to find the config again. It does not begin importing the profile/account/emails.

I waited a few times ... so it could download the emails/profile/account - nothing happens. No 'progress bar' appears.

How do I get the programme to begin loading on this computer? Thank you in advance

Hello! I used the automatic setting up of Thunderbird and it all appears alright with one notable exception. Inbox on the server (webmail.aruba.it) is synchronized with Thunderbird on my laptop i.e. when I receive messages I can see them both when logging into the server as well as locally on Thunderbird. However, sent e-mails from the server webmail.aruba.it I cannot see (are not stored locally on Thunderbird). Interestingly enough, though, if I send a message from Thunderbird (locally) I can see it synced in the "sent" folder on webmail.aruba.it. Could you help?
