Hello,

I'm reaching out to inquire if there's a method to perform silent updates for Firefox without the need to launch the browser. Our organization has deployed multiple browsers across over 400 PCs, and while Firefox is a common choice for many, a significant number of users do not actively use it. Consequently, Firefox does not get updated on these systems because it is not being opened. Is there a command line option or a similar tool we can utilize to initiate silent updates manually?

DRM content and Firefox - can websites enable DRM on their own, or force Firefox to use it?

Hello all,

Recently, I was browsing a website when Firefox (Windows 10, version 122) suddenly showed me an info bar asking me to turn on DRM content. While the message seems clear, I still wish to ask if it may be possible that websites force Firefox to download DRM modules and load them against my choice (and if possible to explain, how Firefox knows that DRM content is present on the page to begin with).

A copy of the pop-up I found online is attached to this post.

Thank you all in advance!

I can't figure out how to understand Developer Tools - Network Tab - Response Time for XHR API-calls.

As far as I can see, the column 'Response Time', measure the time in hours, minutes, seconds the user has spend on this website, instead of measuring the time it took for the XHR call to return to the browser.

I'm a professional web-developer - being comfortable with using and understanding F12-Developer tools across browsers.

On my MacBookAir (M2) audio on a lot of sites is out off sync (Imgur, X) but not on YouTube or streaming services (netflix and others). I restarted FF in save mode: no improvement. FF is up to date. OSX is up to date.

If I open a website in Safari there is no problem: audio/video perfectly in sync; gifs on Imgur.com for instance.

Not sure but on my MacBookPro (Intel) there was no such a problem.

Suggestions?

Running TB 115.7.0 on Windows 10 Educational. When I reply to an email on Thunderbird (on either of my two desktops) it shows up on both machines with the little arrow showing that I have replied. But if I reply on webmail (Outlook 365) the replied-to arrow never shows up on Thunderbird. The email will have a replied-to icon in Outlook 365 webmail, but Thunderbird doesn't show it. It's like TB can only see its own replies rather than all the replies that Outlook registers.

Yes I have lot of emails, and I ma now using rules to delete old emails.

I have 12 email accounts for different activities I am involved with.

Why does Thunderbird keep downloading old emails everytime it restarts? Am I meant to keep Thunderbrd running all the time? Doesn't Thunderbird store downloaded emails on the PC?

Hello,

We have deloped a search engine https://caziti.com. Our main focus is on privacy and integrity. We are far from a perfect search engine but our target is more on tech and be able to deliver unique search results, since our search engine has been completley built by us, and we are not dependant on any third parties, makes us able to do this. How would we go about being a predefined search engine in the firefox browser?

Best regards

Lot Government Job offer and Banned for cheating from NTN because Firefox opened itself in the background? Urgent help needed!!!

Hello

I was taking a Government mandated test conducted by NTN, this exams are proctored and I have to run lock down software in order to take them, have webcam on etc. Part of the process is making sure that no other software is open and running in my task bar, which the proctor verifies. While I was about an hour into the test everything was shut down and I was notified by browser that the proctor shut my exam down and I needed to contact support.

So I opened a ticket and they told me that their software detected Firefox launching in the background. Because of that the proctor took action and disqualified me for cheating/opening software during an exam.

The huge frigging issue is, I DID NO SUCH GODDAMN THING. Firefox was 100% off and I never even went near the goddamn thing, they watch everything you do on screen as well and my mouse never even moves towards the taskbar at all. I was in the middle of watching a video clip in the exam to answer questions about it.

Long story short, I'm in a lot of trouble. I'm not going to jail or anything like that, but I am being accused of cheating and have had the job offer rescinded. I really needed this job and wouldn't jeopardize it in a million years. Like come on ffs it was a video about what you would do in a situation, what the hell am I going to Google??

Can anyone offer any insight, or some way to prove to them that I didn't do anything. Is there some Windows log or Firefox log or something that would show that I never launched it? NTN Tech support feels that it was some sort of background process or update, but the rules are the rules.

ANY HELP AT ALL would be GREATLY appreciated!!!! I've tried calling Mozilla and no dice. Not sure how to get a hold of anyone there.
