I having an issue running applications and opening all sorts of files I have downloaded with the browser. Media files, APK, pdf are the types of files I have downloaded and none of them seem to be opening. I even tried renaming but they still don't open. I downloaded the same files on a different browser like operamini and the files open on my fone

Now what? Another useless POS. Sorry, I've had it with this security crap. No joy on multiple Android devices, every site I tried, bar none. No VPN or anything abnormal connectionwise. Every other browser on multiple devices works fine.

I am moving to a new phone. On my old phone, Firefox can browse to links on twitter.com without opening them in the native app. This is what I want. I have been unable to get the same to happen on the new phone.

As far as I can tell the versions are the same, and I've been through the settings. Both phones are set to not open links in native apps. I have disabled "open by default" for Twitter on the new phone, even though it is not disabled on the old phone.

How can I prevent Firefox from launching the Twitter app?

Image with error attached below. FFox 107.0 (21907)

When I press the "Home" button/icon in FFox for IOS to go to the startup page I am getting an error message "The URL can't be shown / WebKitErrorDomain".

I believe this is an evolution of the error I reported here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1397009 However, it looks like there's been a FFox update in the last day (If I recall the version number correctly from the last one) and the error has changed.

Reliably reproducing this: - Start FFOX - press a startup page icon to access a site OR enter a URL directly in the address line. Look at one or more pages. - press FFOX "Home" button/icon to get back to FFOX startup screen - error occurs - The URL line when the error occurs is ".enx%20la%20l".

Info: I reported a very similar error here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1397009 about a week ago. A few days ago it cured itself. Then today it started again but with a slightly different URL and a completely different error message. However, the oddball URL tells me the two are closely related.

Recap: - I've been using FFOX for years without issue on this phone. - Everything else including accessing web sites seems to be working normally. - There have been no related configuration changes on my part since the last error but it does look like FFox has updated. I don't know how to see the version number in the previous post so I'm not sure. - There have been no IOS updates on the phone in the last couple months (auto update is off)

The TLD/url (.enx) does not appear to be a valid TLD. It's either something FFox is using internally or perhaps IOS is supplying it (seems unlikely but possible). I do have the usual array of sites on my startup page as icons. None of the sites iconed on the startup page has been changed recently.

If I close the (al)l tabs and/or instead start a new one, I get the startup screen as expected. So there are apparently no network access issues. This is 100% reliable with no delays.

This definitely looks like a BUG to me or an internal issue. Is there a better way to report a bug?
