Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to search-crown.com. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it.

I received this download from Firefox today, July 22, 2025: xRqj7qhl.html - Size: zero bytes - Kind: HTML text . I've never experienced this before. Is it legitimate? Thanks

I have HDR working in Proton games and mpv fine (using Plasma 6.4 / Wayland)

I enabled HDR in Firefox (gfx.wayland.hdr), and HDR content works in YouTube fine ( looks amazing!) however.. I have an issue in that all non HDR content doesn’t show any video (I have sound) just a green sceen (see screen shot) including all ads.

Any idea how to work round this ?

I have AMD 7800 GPU .

Hello,

I'm writing because I’ve encountered an issue with the tab groups feature in Firefox.

Some time ago, after a browser update, I noticed a new feature that allowed me to group tabs thematically — I could name each group (e.g., "Study", "Work"), choose a color for it, and save and close groups to reopen them later. I found it very useful and used it a lot.

Last night, I decided to declutter my browser and closed several tab groups using the built-in menu. A bit later, I shut down my computer, but perhaps too quickly. This morning, when I turned my computer back on, Firefox was very slow to start. After a restart, everything seemed to work fine again, and the open tabs were restored.

However, all my previously saved (but temporarily closed) tab groups disappeared. In the tab group menu, I can now only see the ones currently open. I’ve searched through all the settings and history but cannot find any way to restore the missing groups.

Is there any way to recover the tab groups that I had previously saved and closed?

Thank you very much in advance!

I don't know if this ever worked in FF, since I've been on Chrome a while. I tried canvas.toBlob() in FF without a solution.

The behavior is the same whether the served image is jpg or webp. A Servlet delivers the image data, here in webp:

          response.setHeader("Content-Type", "image/webp");

On page, I use a canvas thus => see '// FIREFOX'

     var canvas = document.createElement( 'canvas' );
     canvas.width = width;
     canvas.height = avail_height;
     var context = canvas.getContext( '2d' );
     context.drawImage( imgsrc, 0, 0, width, avail_height);
     context.lineWidth = 150;

     // FIREFOX: canvas.toDataURL('image/jpeg')=black, png,webp,default=transparent
     img.src = canvas.toDataURL('image/jpeg');

     img.onmousedown = disableDragging; // for FF
     img.style.opacity = "1.0";
     console.log('setImg ok');

Inspecting a black jpeg:

        data:image/jpeg;base64,...

Thanks!

When I middle-click a link in Firefox, it opens in a new tab, but it also switches me to that new tab immediately.

I’d prefer to stay on the current tab after middle-clicking, and just have the new tab open in the background just like google chrome does. Is there a setting to stop it from automatically switching?

Thanks!

Firefox on Windows 11 has suddenly and without my apparent action started automatically hiding the tab bar and the address bar to give all the vertical space to the current tab. I do not like this (I have big monitors and I want those bars always visible)

How do I turn this one and why did it turn on in the first place?

Thank you for having the Q&A facility.

Application error: a client-side exception has occurred while loading (see the browser console for more information).

where is the browser console? how do i fix it never had an issue with until the last two days?

I was forced to erase my PC because it was infected with malware. I saved my Tbird profile to my HDD before erasing. I pasted the saved profile to %Appdata% >Thunderbird, copying 1,777 items. When I brought up Tbird, I got the Account Setup window, so I don't think the profile was actually there. What did I do wrong?

How in the heck do you increase the size of the UI font? I have a 1440P monitor and the TINY size of the UI font makes it nearly impossible to read the text on the menu buttons, I have lean forward and squint to read it because they are so damn small. I can't find anything in the settings to make the UI text larger. It is as if some dummy hard coded the UI font size so it's impossible for the average person to find out how to change it. It makes no sense whatsoever.

And please don't tell me to increase the zoom in the Windows settings, because that screws up EVERYTHING else...

Another thing that is driving me crazy is how do you set it so that scrolling with the mouse wheel is smooth and not jerky? When i scroll with the mouse wheel, instead of smoothly moving the page up or down, it JERKS a couple of lines at a time. This is the only browser that it does that in. I have smooth scrolling ON in the mouse settings on my computer but for some reason, only Firefox is doing this.

There are many tabs open in the firefox window. I'm closing the firefox. I'm opening it again.All tabs opened during the previous opening disappear.Either a new page or a single tab opens. The settings are set to "Open previous windows and tabs" (Image 1)

I go to "Firefox View" ---"Open tabs". (image 2) I see 2-5 windows there.In this case, there are 3 windows.WINDOW 1 is my main window with the tabs that should have been saved and opened when firefox was launched again. I close all tabs from unnecessary windows with a cross.Only window 1 remains. But when restarting, an empty or different window opens again.And again, there are a lot of unnecessary and incomprehensible windows on the list. Previously, a window with restored tabs from the previous session always opened. Question: 1)How can I restore the normal recovery of the previous session when restarting? 2) Tell me.I can somehow switch between windows (Firefox View" ---"Open tabs)(Image 1) Thank you.

Hello! I contacted you with a problem with the impossibility of installing two-factor authentication on my account. Despite successfully entering the code and saving backups, two-factor authentication disappears immediately after refreshing the page. Mozilla stores all my passwords and data - therefore, two-factor authentication is very important for my account.

Using iOS on Mac Mini desktop, I get no sound on democracynow.org but on the iPhone the sound works fine. Most other streams/videos have fine sound but not imdb.com on the desktop with iOS but again, fine on the iPhone.

I recently ported from chrome to firefox about 3 days ago and was tryin to access the dropdown menus on this website https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/governments/government-id/bc-services-card/your-card/get-a-card

I realized it wasn't working so I turned off my adblocker (ublock origin), refreshed the site and still not working.

Also attempted to use troubleshoot mode and still does not work.

Cleared cache + cookies and used troubleshoot mode and nothing working still.

I lastly checked the website was working by opening the same link on chrome after all that and it works perfectly fine over there. Any ideas what could possibly be the issue?? I basically have a fresh install of firefox with no changed settings besides anything that might of been copied over from Chrome when firefox automatically asks you to migrate your stuff over, and used the troubleshoot mode + clearing cookies and cache

The app sizes two adjacent images to the same height. Maybe there's a better approach?

This works, in that I see the original image displayed at the wrong size:

   //img.src = imgsrc.src;

This sizes the image but without the data (black square for toDataURL w/ image/jpeg) in FF, but not Chrome and Safari:

   var canvas = document.createElement( 'canvas' );
   canvas.width = width;
   canvas.height = avail_height;
   var context = canvas.getContext( '2d' );

   // Tried/failed: Fill white background for JPEG export
   //context.fillStyle = '#fff';
   //context.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

   context.drawImage( imgsrc, 0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
   context.lineWidth = 150; // ??

   img.src = canvas.toDataURL('image/jpeg', 0.92);
   img.onmousedown = disableDragging; // for FF
   img.style.opacity = "1.0"

The page is the view.html one gets to via Enter on phobrain.com.

I wanted to completely disable TLS 1.3 when using Firefox, so I set security.tls.version.max to 3 (which corresponds to TLS 1.2). That worked up until I got version 140.0.4 installed - now it completely ignores this setting no matter what I set. I tried using cloudflare-ech.com website for test and it confirms that my browser uses TLS 1.3 with ECH. I also tried modifying security.tls.version.fallback-limit to 0 and security.tls.version.min to 0 to get a possible range of TLS 1.0-1.2, but it still uses TLS 1.3.
