Hi, I have been using Firefox for Windows for almost three decades. I have an ASUS VivoBook with a fully patched Windows 11 Home Edition 64bit operating system. Firefox is my default browser, with Microsoft Edge as the back-up should things go awry. Well, they have with this Firefox upgrade. It effectively blocks me from using my NordLynx VPN. There is no connectivity at all if I have the VPN on. If I pause it, then no problem. What gives? This has never happened before.

Nord VPN has already been given permissions through my Windows Defender Firewall. So how and why are you programming a solid wall against my utilizing it's functionality?

I would like your input before I start hard troubleshooting, since this is totally on your end.

Hello community,

I've been moved to MacOS at work and since then, Firefox will not always restore my pinned sites when I start it the next day.

Here is what I do:

1. Right click a tab, select "Pin Tab"
2. Go about my day
3. At the end of the day, I close Firefox by using command Q and shutdown my Mac
4. The next day, I start Firefox and most of the time, my pins are gone

I did not have this issue on Windows Firefox. I am using MacOS 26.5.2 and Firefox 152.0.4 Firefox says "Your browser is being managed by your organization" in settings. It is a link that can be clicked and the only active policy showing there is "DisableAppUpdate" which I assume is because we have our own tool to manage software updates.

Any idea what could cause my pinned tabs to disappear? I did not really customize the settings so far, I do NOT clear browsing data when exiting FF and the startup option "Open previous windows and tabs" is NOT selected. I have Ecosia and 1Password as plugins.

Any help appreciated, thank you.

Numerous tabs appear whenever I open Mozilla. I have used them at some time in the past, but never all on one occasion. SOME WERE LAST USED AT LEAST SEVEN MONTHS AGO.

Related may be that sometimes when I follow a link on one website, the destination appears on my screen as a new opening of Mozilla. The previous site(s) are completely obscured

Yesterday I downloaded 90 emails from my mail server. Only 5 of them were filtered correctly.

Upon reviewing the remaining 85 emails, I observed that many of them "should" have been filtered. So I opened up the Tools - Message Filters and applied the filtering to the INBOX file.

Almost immediately, all 85 emails disappeared. They were not in the Trash folder, nor were they visible in any other folder or mail box that I could see.

It was recommended to apply the "repair" to the INBOX which I tried; However, all that happened was 318 older emails that I have processed a few days before reappeared in the INBOX. Which interestingly would not sort by the date indicated for the email; they would only sort by subject and sender.

It was further recommended to close TB, and delete the INBOX.msf file. Which I did do. In addition, I also restored the INBOX to the previous days file using my daily backup files. That file shows 101,076 kb of info contained in it.

I reopened TB to find once again nothing in the INBOX, and when I tried to re-run the get msgs aspect, the result was the system telling me there were no email messages to collect.

Yet I know the same 90 emails are still sitting in the mail server system.

Why did this happen?

Where did the 85 emails in the INBOX go to?

Why isn't the set of 2200++ email filters not automatically filtering all emails once they are collected, and distributing them to the appropriate email file folder / mail box?

What recommendations are available to help me resolve this situation and prevent it from happening again?

Also, I have a txt and html file of the 8 Jul 2026 filter report. Why can't I upload said files along with this set of information? Why are attachments only restricted to image files?

Thank

Using 153.0b3 and having an issue.

Under Account Settings, I have three entries in the left: Company Yahoo Local Folders

Under Company, my POP3 download/remove from server account I've had since the 90s, under Copies & Folders I have "Place a copy in" for "Sent" Folder on: Company. Same for Message Archives, Drafts, and Templates. Under Yahoo I have "Place a copy in" for "Local Folders" for all four. The ONLY reason I have them set up this way is due to the error message that displays if I try and set any of them to be Yahoo.

I recently went to find an email I'd sent last week using my Company account and couldn't find it. I couldn't find any that had been sent for awhile. I eventually found it under Local Folders(I had "Hide local folders" turned on because I can't understand the reason to it to even exist).

What exactly is going on? Is it a bug with the beta? I'm getting really tired of having to move the messages to the correct folder when all of the settings appear correct(my oldest email is from 1996 btw, so I've been keeping current since Netscape Mail)

Windows 11 Pro Mozilla Firefox 152.0.4 (64-bit)

When creating a passkey for my Mozilla account, the Windows Security passkey program insists on using my old gmail.com address instead of my new protonmail.com address.

How can I purge Mozilla records of my gmail address and use my protonmail address?

Many thanks

Some Chinese characters are displayed incorrectly in my iOS Firefox app, with completely different strokes then they should have. It's not traditional Chinese or any other actually existing character, it's just straight up wrong.

As an example, below I am typing 冷 (cold) and it displays correctly in my keyboard (and everywhere else on my iPhone) but when I actually select it, the character looks completely different. If I search, it's still recognized as the correct character, but it's just displayed wrong, making it very difficult to read as these aren't characters that actually exist. This is just one example, with multiple other characters having similar issues.

Hey guys, so I always have a bunch of tab groups as it helps me organize my tabs. But every time I accidentally close Firefox or my pc resets, all the tab groups are gone. UNLIKE google chrome where, even if I close chrome they will be on the toolbar for me to open again. So could you please add this feature on firefox as well because this is getting very irritating because I have to open the individual tabs again and again? Thank you.

Thank you! greg

it looks like mozillo ambushed me, did away with all of my setting I spent years getting where I wanted them and left a folder called Old firefox data on my desk top. how do I make it look and act like the old firefox? I do not want the side bar I want the icons on the same line as the search bar. I want firefox to be my default everything like it was. I hate edge but it seams the only way i could get rid of it was to uninsal firefox and reintal this new pink firefox home page. I want my home page to be foxnews. how do I restore everything from teh old data filke to this confusing new page?

How do I stop this page from coming up several times a day. I have already set FireFox as my default browser, several times, but to no avail. I've careful followed your instructions. I dislike MS and have used FF for years. If this doesn't stop, I'll search for another browser that hopefully behave. I have set it on 4 computers, 2 Win 10, 2 Win 11.

By the way, the computers show FireFox twice, but only one actual installation.

Please do better!

I've been using Mozilla browsers since Mosaic, when I built netsys.com, delta.net, inetexpress.com and Damocles.com.

I'm trying to login to many sites which send a text message to my phone... But 80% of the time, my Firefox web browser refreshes.

I'm using android 13, 1/1/26 release on a moto G play with all background operations disabled, battery saver on...

Even if I allow Firefox to operate in the background... It doesn't matter.

This is unbelievable ! I posted this again in response to somebody not being able to comprehend, "Bookmark Spacing Vertical Intervals Not Optimized". What the Hell else do I need to add to clarify that ? You don't want, can't or refuse to answer -- I get that. But DO NOT rope-a-dope me be typing it's not clear or you don't comprehend what, Bookmark Spacing Vertical Intervals Not Optimized means. It is a clear, concise description of an IT problem. I have zero clue how to describe it any other way. This is flabbergasting -- it is a well-known problem but all the solutions offered I have seen are garbage. Am wasting huge amounts of time and money, neighbor ! I can't submit a bill for all this runaround !

In the email address tree on the start up page of Thunderbird, how can I manually sort the email address order? I have an address I would like to move to the top of the list.

I know it can be done, but I can not for the life of me remember how. Please help.....

I've read a lot of suggestions on the FAQ section, but what they are offering, I do not have listed in/on my Thunderbird.

Thank you.
