Suddenly I cannot search from the search bar. It defaults to the address bar. why "fix" something that was not broken. Being forced to use the address bar is frustrating. If you go directly to the address bar, it tells you it cannot find that site.

I had to actually sign up fort a Mozilla account,the multiple hoops I had to jump through were ridicules, in order to ask a question of Firefox. I do not want my address bar to be my search engine. How do I disable the search engine in my address bar? And now I have to wait for an answer!!!!!!!! I used to love and trust Firefox. Not anymore.

I'm on Win10. This morning I see that MSLOP has updated my desktop PC overnight. FF was open before the update and attempted to restart but couldn't restore pages. I told it to start a new session and the PC blue screened. This has happened before so after the PC restarted I shut it down. It blue screened a few times while also trying to restart FF. I shut it down with the power button. FF will not start with troubleshooting (shift while double clicking on FF icon). It crashes and I get the crash window. Latest crash detail is below. What next? Any help is much appreciated.

UPDATE: I went to windows settings, apps, and clicked on uninstall for FF. Immediately a message box, "Would you like to refresh instead?" popped up. Sure, why not? It thought for a while and updated. I logged in again and I am back to a functioning 147.0.3. I logged into my bitwarden extension and ublock origin is still there. No clue what happened earlier.

Hi, I'm on Firefox 147.0.3 and windows 11 business 25H2 (26200.7623), with two displays. For the past few weeks: - firefox stays on top - alt-tab to other window on that screen doesn't work, other app is not displayed over firefox - clicking on other app icon in task bar doesn't bring it to foreground/top - even other firefox window (like new private window) is opened in background - the only way around is to minimize firefox - without firefox opened, everything works normally It is really disturbing my flow / ways of interacting with apps / habit of using keyboard to move between apps.

Is it a bug, or is it a matter of some settings? I've seen similar quesiton from 9 years ago https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1140245 but there is no setting of the same name now?

I received this email after I tried to sign in to my Mozilla account. This is the relevant info from the email:

Your {$providerName} account has been linked to your Mozilla account Mobile Safari on iOS 18.7

I don't know what I did to cause this email to be sent. I wasn't trying to link any other account to my mozilla account.

My junk email has increased dramatically lately. I'm sure it's just life on the internet but I'm trying to figure out if clicking "unsubscribe" actually does anything. I've been putting all the emails that I click "unsubscribe" into a separate folder. I'd like to sort the folder by the email address of the sender. However, when you click on the "from" selection in the message window it gives you the entire entry that the sender put in the send section. In other words I see "The Scary Law, Thomas T. from NFE <daily@today.newfinanceera.com>". Is there a way to get a column that just shows the "<daily@today.newfinanceera.com>" so I can sort on that item?
