Recently clicked to update to the next version of Firefox. Then I get the message "Restart to Update Firefox." I restart Firefox but the message is still there when I click Help > About Firefox. It would appear that the update did not happen for some reason. Do I need to re-install Firefox to get around this problem?

Some Keyboard Shortcuts No Longer Work.

Hello. This question concerns the Windows 11 desktop version of Firefox.

I have long used the Home and End keys on my extended keyboard to scroll to the very top of any given page in Firefox (Home) or to the very bottom of that page (End).

But, lately, I notice that, for no reason I can figure out, Firefox no longer responds to those shortcuts. Now, when I tap Home or End, the page may, at first, scroll up or down slightly but not to the top or bottom. If I press Home or End again, nothing happens at all.

Sometimes, if I press Ctrl + Home simultaneously or Ctrl + End the page will scroll to the top or bottom respectively.

Why has Firefox's behavior apparently changed? Is there an issue with my keyboard or operating system settings? (I use a Logitech G915 keyboard.)

Please let me know how to restore Firefox's shortcut functionality, where I can tap just Home to scroll to the top of a page or only End to scroll to the bottom of a page.

Thanks and be well.

How to set the New Tab page to a local file? (autoconfig no longer works in v136.0)

Since the settings haven't given that option for years, the best way to have a local file as the new tab page was using autoconfig.cfg + autoconfig.js, as described in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1251199 But since the most recent update (v136.0), this stopped working.

The New Tab Override add-on has its own issues with using local files (can only load a .html file, no local CSS/JS, can't give a blank address bar for me to search in), so it doesn't solve the issue either.

This is very important to me, and others have been asking for this feature back for years. It feels awful to have the working solution stop working, in the browser that's supposed to be open and customizable.

According to Firefox Help, "After you have defined and set your Primary Password, you will be prompted to enter it once for each Firefox session, when Firefox needs access to your stored passwords." But since updating to version 136.0 I get asked for my Primary Password even to see my home page. Why is this?

About a week ago, I started having these problems with FF 136.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10:

  • Gmail (mail.google.com) became completely inaccessible
  • Google Maps (maps.google.com) opens normally, but app icons stopped displaying correctly (as in attached screenshot)

Comments:

  • Gmail and Google Maps are accessible normally on Chrome and Edge
  • YouTube (which is another Google product) works fine on my FF
  • Tried refreshing FF then tried clearing all cookies, caches, and browsing history, but made no improvement of any kind.

Any advice?

in settings Homepage and new windows use custom urls, current urls doesn't include Pinned tabs. Windows updated and when firefox was restored two windows were opened, one was blank and the other opened old home page settings but did not reopen all my pinned tabs, gmail, yahoo mail,and some other tabs I plnned, there are 5 of them and several regular tabs I had open before and most of them did not show up in history. Pinned tabs do not get included in use custom urls for the home pages. Also for several days my roboform bar would not show up, roboform said no open browers to attach to when firefox was open.

Does Mozilla offer somewhere to download older versions of Firefox for Android? I've had problems since November when I got this phone and downloaded the latest version of Firefox and every update since with no fix. I'm not able to view comments or make a comment on YouTube. Other people here have the same problem. I've disabled add-ons, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. There's also an annoying Firefox pop-up when viewing videos in full screen that can be fixed by adjusting a setting in about:config but I've just discovered about: config has been removed!!! 90% of my internet usage is YouTube using Firefox for Android, so the problems are significant to me. An older version works perfectly on my older phone and would like that version on my new phone. Is there a way I can do this? Thank you.
