Can someone please add this to the AI Sidebar Please? Thanks

On June 10, 2025, Windows installed an automatic update. This caused my Dell laptop to freeze every 2 to 3 minutes and I would reboot and start over. After 4 days of this trying every fix I could think of, I took it to the local computer repair shop. He said my video driver was bad. I think that was caused by an interaction with the Windows update. He fixed the video driver. Now the problem is I can increase the font size in Firefox fine, but I can't increase the tab and address bar sizes no matter what I do. I have been searching for days and trying everything suggested. Do I have to take it back to the repair shop or can you help me?

No help given - and no question asked. Quitting Firefox as there is no simple way to change fonts to a size that is readable. Going back to a browser where I can actually read the address bar, toolbar and all the other places where one has to have developer skills in order to make simple font changes. Tired of fighting crap.

Today (06/12/2025) upon opening a new tab, Firefox slid the new option of uploading a custom picture to apply to the background. Tried the new feature, now I can not find the setting that allows me to change the picture. I read the thread "Customize your wallpapers". The instructions are as follows; You can personalize your Firefox New Tab page by adding one of the available wallpapers. Follow these steps:

  1. In the right corner of the New Tab page, click the gear IG settings icon.
  2. In the customization panel, under the Wallpapers section, you will see different categories like Solid colors, Abstract and Photographs.
       Click the category you prefer. For example, selecting Abstract will show a variety of abstract designs. 


The problem I have is the customization panel is no where to be seen, I have click on EVERYTHING possible, it is not in my settings, why? How do find this?

hi, i cant find an option to dismiss the new sidebar. it's pointless and i can switch all the buttons off, but now there is just an empty space at the side of my browser. very annoying. i hate the AI integration and i will not be recommending this browser to anyone in the future because of it. I have spent years convincing others to make the switch to firefox, but what's the point if it ends up just as toxic and useless as every other browser. disappointing.

Hello: Thanks for creating Firefox. This is my first question after more than a decade using it. I couldn't find proper information about this. This week Firefox started to show a tiny shopping cart icon over the task bar icon of Firefox (image attached). I don´t know what it's and I can't find the functionality that make that appear. So, How do I disable it? I use Firefox everywhere, and I don't like it, specially in my job's laptop as my boss can occasionally see it and it's obviously not work-related in my case. I use chatgpt to get answers and it points to a "Shopping Assistant" feature, but I don't find it. Is it related? The term is so common that I couldn't narrow down to my specific question (what is it and how to disable it)

I use windows 11 and 138.0.4 (64-bit)

Thanks in advance for help

RE: Thunderbird 128.2esr Nebula I like to keep things simple and I know I was able to this before (ie: SuperNova), although I can’t remember how. How do I set “PERSONAL Address Book” as my only (default) address book; or how do I eliminate Collected Addresses? I prefer to keep all my contacts in my “PERSONAL Address Book”.

When I right click a tab and select Bookmark Tab, the "Location" is preselected from one of my existing bookmark folders/locations. I thought it might adapt to the most recent or most often selected folder; however, it seems to present the same "default" location every time I bookmark a tab - a folder I have not barely used in months. I realize I can select another folder, but it is annoying for it to select the LEAST used and my personal least favorite folder EVERY TIME, for MONTHS.

1) Is there a way to select which folder it preloads to save bookmarks to? 2) Why is it selecting THAT folder? 3) If there is no way to set a folder, is there a way to reset it or something? ANY other folder to default to would be less annoying. I do not understand why it seems "stuck" on this folder and will not preload ANY other folder from the dozens of folders.

Thanks in advance for any help!

The bookmarks icons and fonts are too small for my older eyes on my new Ubuntu computer. They are bigger on my older Ubuntu computer. I have tried to find out how to enlarge them without sussex.

I am aware of the Zoom feature for a webpage itself, I am not asking about that. I simply want to have my bookmark toolbar FONTS and ICONS larger.

This has been frustrating. Perhaps including an EASY way to do this for future updates, or an app suggestion that would solve the problem. Thanks for your consideration and (hopefully) help.

I have Thunderbird in 3 computers. I downloaded the upgrade this week and a lot of changes took place. Then I got locked out? All kinds of colors turned themselves on, then it kept asking me if I wanted to change a function???? I kept saying no, then yes. It continued to ask. Turned off the computer and worried if I get my old stuff back. Today it is working but incoming mail is in the lower part of the screen, old mail is in the top. How do I go back to the old version. This is my desktop

I just turned on my laptop and it asked me to upgrade. NOPE! I've used you guys for years and only made a small donation, sorry. Didn't know you have an app for my Android??? Would have tried it. Does your browser follow and track me like Chrome, which I hate. I will aways speak well of you guys even if I can't go back to the older version. See ya, Randy
