Every time I restart Firefox Nightly, the Firefox Home page returns to light mode, although the dark theme is enabled in settings. It is fixable by disabling and re-enabling the theme. It could be related to the Dark Reader extension, but the plug-in should be disabled on native pages like this.

I doubt Starbucks WiFi is any less secure than other public WiFi, but access of my Android Pie phone is regularly denied by Firefox. More importantly, I am not given option to proceed anyway. SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN is denial note. Certificate only valid for secure.datavalet.io, whereas my local site is west.datavalet.io Is there no way to proceed to latter website?

Hi, whenever I want to download something, Firefox shows me a Opening window. If I mistakenly select the "Open with" button, a file is downloaded to my /tmp/ directory and then opened with an application, which takes a huge amount of RAM for stuff like iso.
The another thing is that it's very annoying and takes a lot of time if you want to download many files from many websites. You have to manually choose save file for all the files you download, and the "Do this automatically for files like this from now on" option is greyed out.
Is there a way disable the "Opening" window and just download the files I wish to download?
Multiple profiles in Firefox 67 broke default browser click!

Hi all,
Since Firefox 67 we can use more profiles at once. But this broke default click settings when the profile is not in the default place.
Before Firefox 67: If Firefox was the default browser, and the profile was for example d:\firefox, and I clicked a link in other program, for example mail client, the link was just passed to firefox.exe, and Firefox knew the profile (if it is running) so just started the link in the correct profile.
But now: If I click a link outside firefox, the browser just launches with an another, default firefox profile (c:\users\appdata... etc).
So how can I fix this? Can I disable this new multiple profile thing?

TLS handshake for minutes, then fail. Computer restart always fixes

This started when I installed V68 on my Mac (I'm on 68.0.2 now, Mac is 10.12.6). About half the time when I start my computer in the morning, when I try to browse *any* site (http or https), I get the TLS handshake attempt that lasts for several minutes, then connection fails.
BUT, *unlike other posts with this problem*, if I restart my computer (restarting FF does not fix it), all is well. A detail (not sure if relevant): the pages my (Comcast) server has local copies of, that is, my home page and a couple of very frequently accessed pages, I can access, but any other site, regardless of http or https, results in the TLS handshake "freeze 'n fail."
- Edit: I just lost then, 10 mins later, regained my Comcast (internet, mail, cable). I did not re-start computer or FF, but when signal returned, I got the dreaded TLS Handshake Freeze 'N Fail. Again, computer restart let me come here to report.

I use Windows 10 Pro and Tbird ver. 68.1.0 (64-bit). Help> About Tbird says I'm up to date yet every morning I get a small window that asks me if I would like to update Tbird. Why is this if I'm up-to-date? Second, I tried the update and the update opened as a new install w/o incorporating anything such as my existing sent messages, trash, contacts and most importantly my local folders. How best to handle this if in fact it really is a update?
Thanks.
Firefox use of appdata Roaming has serious shortcomings. How can I continue to use Firefox on company's virtual desktops?

In my searching, almost everthying I've found related to managing Firefox is from a manual user perspective. Most of our users are not very computer literate to begin with. They are of sort who refer to the browser as "Google" or "MSN", whichever default search engine they have grown accustomed to, learn just enough to get their job done. That leaves it to IT to preserve their settings.
Firefox is writing a majority the user profile information to appdata\roaming. Windows is preventing appdata\roaming from being redirected. This means whenever IT needs to rebuild the desktops, all the users that prefer Firefox as a browser lose their setup. As of yet, we have no specific policy for users creating a Mozilla account to backup their profile to the cloud, but that is a manual process for the users to implement.
During the last recomopose, users were dismayed they lost their Firefox settings, especially their bookmarks. The auto export of bookmarks is useless , as it writes its files to appdata\roaming and I can find no setting to redirect that. Being impossible to redirect, appdata\Roaming is destroyed every time a virtual desktop is recomposed.
IT is currently exploring removing Firefox from the next recompose image, because we cannot find a way to support it internally. I am wondering if anyone else out there has Firefox in a VDI environment, and what do you do to preserve the profiles during remaking the desktops?

After the release and subsequent auto update of firefox 70.1 I had NO internet access. Anytime I attempted to open the browser I got an error page saying Can Not Connect. Finally after using a restore point dated Oct.25 I was able to acess the net and download sites again but I can no longer stream video from Netflix or Amazon Prime Video. Hulu and other sites are not affected. Netflix said refreshing firefox would work. It DID NOT. Amazon says the latest version of firefox is needed to restore functionality. That version kills my ability to access the web. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit on an older HP with AdBlocker Plus and HTTPS Everywhere. Any ideas ?

I recently found that when I try to send email in Thunderbird using my gmail account, I get a notice that cookies are disabled, and I need to enable? This only happens on 1 of my 4 accounts. The other gmails do just fine (except I can't sign into gmail anymore on any of them). I can receive but not send. I tried adding the different imap addresses in my "allow cookie" and it still won't work. Now before someone says to clear cookies and cache, and try again, I did many many times. What got me to notice this is because these emails are rarely used, and gmail is blocking me for some dumb reason.

This is my second attempt to get some help with this ongoing issue;
I have uninstalled and re-downloaded through 3 versions now without a resolution. Both complete uninstalls without saving preferences. I have tried a FF restart as well.
The only add on I load is the Download Them All, but it happens even before I add that.
I always put the tabs on bottom by changing the true to false on tabs on top.
I have also tried using www.advanceduninstaller.com "Clean Your System Registry" with no luck.
