Dear Firefoxers,

Over the last year or so, I've had to switch to Chrome to load some pages properly. reCAPTCHA is proving to be a particular problem - which I'm told is powered by Google? I could be blocking Google content too much within my Firefox browser?

My wife is a long-term Chrome fan and says, "I don't know why you bother with Firefox, Chrome is much better", but I rebuke and say, "No! It's been great over the years, I've been using it since 2003".

Do I need to change my settings somewhere? At times certain pages don't load - it'll say 'Click Verify; or something similar and the 'Verify' button doesn't appear - I load the same page in Chrome, and boom, it's all there.

Am I doing something wrong with Firefox? I have version 100.0.2 (64-bit). Or is it time to give in to the mighty Google and go to Chrome after loyally using Firefox/Mozilla since 2003? (A daft thing to ask on a Firefox forum, I know!).

Many thanks if you can help or advise.

I am still stumped as to why Firefox crashes, IF and that's a big IF, my session is restored, why my tabs are blank but the website names are still on the tabs. Click to reload sometimes works, while other times it doesn't. Google, Facebook, Twitter, WordPress websites I am logged into and others will not load anymore for at least an hour. The only way to access them is to open a private window. What is happening to this browser that causes these sites to not load anymore? Any clearing the browser history/cache doesn't bring these sites back. They will only come back an hour after the crash. I've also cleared my ISP cache too (ipconfig/flushdns).

Hi I don't know what has happened to Firefox, I used it all the time for many years, now I can't sign in to Outlook and have more problems than ever. It asks me to sign into Microsoft but all I get is a blank page. Firefox was always more colourful than other browsers that's why I used it and nothing you do to try to fix this problem doesn't work, it creates more problems than it's worth, that's why I use Chrome, but I do want to use FF. Not all of us are IT experts and can't do all these complicated suggestions every web site offers, so can you make it so much easier for us to understand and for example get Outlook to open automatically as it used to do, until you can fix this I will have to use another browser. I really do like FF but it's impossible. Geoff.

I am receiving this error message and have checked all the settings and have found nothing wrong with them.

Has anyone received this error and/or know how to fix it? Thanks.

Our company email host uses Office 365 exchange. As of yesterday (26 May 2022) all emails were blocked to Thunderbird on our networked office PCs using Windows 10. We cannot send or receive email on Thunderbird (fortunately it still comes through to our iPhones). Our host hold us that Microsoft has "recently started blocking POP3 connections on software such as Thunderbird".

 How do we fix this problem so that we can continue using Thunderbird, which has our email records for some 10 years?  We do not want to use a Microsoft mail client unless we really have to!  I imagine we aren't the only ones with this problem, but I couldn't easily find it by searching help.
 Many thanks!

Im looking for help. TB deletes all email. I have an old backup email account. All file ...AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird in zip. Procedure: 0. delete all current file in folder ...AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird 1 unpack archive 2 open Thunderbird 3 turn on offline mode 4. read old emails, all emails are there. 5. clos TB 6 open TB 7. all email is gone !? Why? This is terrible. Why does it delete all emails without asking?

A lot of times while coding I press Ctrl+S to save Visual Studio Code and update live server (while watching on firefox the result). The problem is that when I'm focused on Firefox Ctrl+S pops up the Save Page window and (if I held Ctrl+S for more than a split second) it crashes (probably due to multiple popups becoming unresponsive). The mouse can't click to cancel the pop ups for saving the page nor interact it. I have to kill the firefox process and restart it. I've been looking into disabling Ctrl+S shortcut in Firefox with no success (extensions are deprecated or require too many permissions I'm not comfortable with).

Would someone help me to disable Ctrl+S or enlighten me on how to not have firefox crash every time I accidentally press Ctrl+S?

Thanks!

Firefox eventually crashes every time I use it, usually when there is about 165 mbs of data. I can relaunch it by both using CCleaner to clear the browser in addition to going to Firefox preferences and deleting data and history. I don't have Flash or Silverlight. I have refreshed Firefox a number of times and completely uninstalled it using the MacCleaner Pro App Cleaner and Uninstaller and reinstalling it using Mozilla's online download link.

I have an HTML signature that seems to work nicely when I compose a new email, but when I reply back to somebody who has replied to said email, my signature sometimes falls back into plain text mode, looking like a complete jumble. I get around this problem by copying the original signature and just pasting it in my reply.

A few key notes; - Account setting is set to use HTML as default, and it does. - The reply I get back still retains and displays the original HTML signature. - When I hit reply, that first HTML signature is still there, but the new signature is in plain text.

So to summarise; It's not processing HTML above the reply line, only below it.

Is there a way to absolutely force the composer to use HTML all the time everytime?

I AM SICK OF FREEZES. I was able to get out of a freeze by closing the browser but when I opened the browser back I got the message Firefox still running at first it was the box with only the edges no writing I left it for a while the the box was populated I clicked shut down and then it restarted I gc and cc in memory and I saved all reports then it froze again. I had to shut down with the power button. This is the first time it has done this way. I have the gz files EASE HELP DONT JUST TELL ME NOBODY ELSE HAS THIS ISSUE.

Hello,

The logo on this page I'm creating isn't showing in Firefox. It's working fine in other browsers.

When I inspect the logo url is there but not sure why it isnt showing.

When I try to access MediaFire it doesn't load and get errors etc. And other sites are slow etc. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Also how do I contact FireFox email official support? I don't like asking on the forums since I want a legit agent ;p

Logged into https://www.expedia.com/ the home page tries to open but a second or two later I see a blank, white screen. I "Turned Enhanced protect off" Expedia page still blank I open GOOGLE and Expedia works perfectly

with version 91.9.1 (32 bit) it takes 12 to 14 seconds to send an email - same on 4 computers 3 windows 10 and 1 windows 11 this started 5/22/2022 after Thunderbird update

I have a lot of issues with my mailbox. Constantly have to repair folders because the wrong subject shows on the wrong email. A big one I had was my inbox getting bogged down, but I learned it doesn't like to have more than a couple thousand emails in it. I kept getting a "exceeded maximum number of connections" error but read something about too many folders, got rid of a few folders and that error went away.

1) What other kinds of tips are there for keeping TB behaving well? 2) I see that my profile has a lot of old files for old folders that don't exist anymore. There's also nstmp files and foldercache.json files. Should I delete all these types of things to clean up? Or should I just start fresh with a new profile and re-download all my email messages? I can't imagine how long that will take because sometimes folders download quickly but other times take forever and I'm not sure the difference. I just downloaded a 4000 email folder in a 20th the time of another 2000 email folder.

Avast flashes the attached message [Avast has blocked access to https://incoming-telemetry.thunderbird.net/ because one of the issues of the server certificate has expired.] Avast suggests a work-around. Is this something you are planning to fix [updating a certificate perhaps] or should I implement the work-around suggested by Avast? THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Dear Support-Team, since a few weeks, I cannot start firefox anymore. I already deinstalled and installed a new downloaded version twice. But it keeps crashing, as soon as I click on the browser icon. Does not start at all. Those are the crash ID's: from 31.05.: bp-9b62d284-cfd8-4ec0-8df1-dae7e0220531 from 11.05.: bp-8612c900-a4c9-4334-93b5-f17890220511 from 09.05. bp-0b6e46a9-a0d0-4951-bd62-5f8fe0220509

Any idea what might cause the problem? Thanks for your help in advance, Kornelia
