can you give us the option to change the hotkeys/shortcuts please? is it possible for this to be an option for the future, I and I believe a lot of others switching from chrome to firefox would like the accessibility to change it as to what they're used to. Thank you very much for your time.

I have a lot of Firefox windows and tabs open, and I really don't want to lose my session.

I wanted to open a webpage in Firefox in fullscreen mode. But evidently there's some kind of serious flaw in Firefox that makes it incapable of opening webpages in fullscreen mode. Everyone says the only workaround is to open the webpage in kiosk mode. So I tried it.

But now I have two big problems:

1. One of my Firefox windows, with all its tabs, is stuck in kiosk mode. (Even if I close the window and then restore it with Ctrl+Shift+T, it's still in kiosk mode.)

2. All new Firefox windows I open with Ctrl+N are also stuck in kiosk mode.

I don't know what to do, and I'd really appreciate any help. Thanks!

Hi, I have problems when using Firefox Android with my Samsung 24 Pro. This doesn't happen with my other phone, that is a One Plus, nor in Chrome browser.

1) I start using Firefox 2) I search something with the bar (google engine) 3) I press the bar to change my search 4) Press to remove a character with the delete

If I searched with more than one word word, it deletes the space in between, eg. "hello how are you" transforms into "hello how areyou". Spected behaviour "hello how are yo". If its only one word a random letter is deleted. Sometimes it deletes a complete word.

If, for example, instead of pressing delete, I touch again the bar in step 4) no bug ocurrs.

Hope someone can help me Best Regards Andrés

We're exploring adopting a default deny policy for Firefox extensions in our enterprise. However when I tested this by creating a custom policies.json Firefox unexpectedly removed all extensions for me, including the ones I thought I had allow listed. Here is my policies.json but just keeping in the Facebook Container add-on to illustrate:

{

   "policies": {
       "ExtensionSettings": {
           "*": {
               "blocked_install_message": "Only approved Firefox extensions can be installed, please email your request to itdept@example.org",
               "installation_mode": "blocked",
               "allowed_types": ["theme", "dictionary", "locale"]
           },
           "@contain-facebook.xpi": { "installation_mode": "allowed" }
       }
   }

}

What I would like is to to allow pre-approved extensions (including if they already are installed) and all other types of add-on, but remove and prohibit installation of unapproved extensions.

Can anyone assist, please?

I'd like to ask about Firefox's behavior and settings. I'm using Firefox with vertical tabs (using an add-on), but it seems to be behaving strangely. The things that have changed since before are: 1. Open from pinned tab 2. Now opens in a new tab → Previously it opened in the same tab 3. Clicking on a newly opened tab opens a new tab again → Previously it would open pinned tabs/same tabs → in a new tab It has changed. I haven't changed any of my Firefox settings. Windows 11 Home 23H2 Firefox version 139.0.4 (64-bit).

Firefox has shortcuts at the top of any new tab opened. These are usually your most visited pages. For most shortcuts, if you click the three dots you get a menu of: Pin Edit Open in a New Window Open in a New Private Window Dismiss Delete From History

This is the menu you get for almost all shortcuts EXCEPT for Amazon. For the Amazon shortcut you get: Pin Dismiss

That's it. No opportunity to edit it. And if you click on the shortcut, it doesn't take you to Amazon.com, instead it opens "Amazon.com Search" in the address bar. I don't want Search, I want to go to the Amazon home page but the shortcut doesn't take me to the Amazon homepage like it used to. Why is this broken now?

Hi, I have a large number of tabs and also have pinned tabs. When I click a link outside of Firefox (FF is my default browser) it always opens them at the end of my tabs (on the far right). I would prefer that the newly opened links open at the beginning of my tabs (the far left) but just after my pinned tabs. Is there a was to do this?

Thanks!

I keep getting notifications, supposedly from Mozilla and/or Microsoft on lower right of my screen, telling me the system is infected. How do i determine if these messages are valid, or a scam ? Turned computer off and back on--messages keep popping up.

Hello,

I can't figure out how to add a custom search shortcut, is this no longer possible in Firefox (without installing addons/extensions)?

I recall 'custom search' being more or less ubiquitous, and feel like there was an "Add" button below the Search Shortcuts UI not that long ago.

Bookmarks with keywords would be a reasonable workaround if it weren't for having to prefix the keyword to the search terms.

Thank you, Kyle

Once I visit any web site that uses HTTPS there is approximately a 90% chance it'll take seconds or even minutes to secure the connection. This never happens on other browsers as they load such pages instantaneously.

I already cleaned my data up and removed the extensions, both suspected and innocent bystanders, to no avail.

As stated in the title, I'm using Firefox 139.0.1 x64 on Windows 11 (24H2, build 26100.4061). This started happening after an automatic Firefox update, I never changed anything in my system configuration.

I am writing to report an issue with the page frequently auto-refreshing. This feature causes a significant disruption, especially when I am in the middle of entering information into data fields, such as forms, passwords, or One-Time Passwords (OTPs).

Every time the page automatically refreshes, all the data I have input is lost, forcing me to restart the process from the very beginning. This happens repeatedly and is extremely frustrating.

I request that this auto-refresh functionality be disabled. It would be much better if the refresh action could only be initiated manually by the user. This would ensure that data being entered remains intact without interruptions that cause the process to restart.

Subject: Issue Report: Automatic Page Refresh Causes Data Loss in Formsbold text

Problem Description: The page/screen automatically and continuously refreshes on its own without user command.

Impact of the Issue: This automatic refresh is highly disruptive because:

1. It erases all data currently being entered into forms (e.g., user details, passwords, OTPs).

2. It forces the user to repeatedly restart the data entry process from scratch.

3. It significantly hinders and slows down the completion of any task on the page.

Suggested Solution: Please disable the automatic refresh feature. The refresh action should be user-initiated only (e.g., via a manual refresh button or a "pull-to-refresh" gesture) to prevent data loss during input. Thank you.

Hi. When I go to YouTube.com on the Firefox mobile browser, I cannot for the life of me find my notifications. On the Firefox PC browser, there is a bell icon in the top right of the screen, but not only is it missing in the mobile browser, I cannot find any button or section labeled "notifications." Please advise.
