Because the economy, inflation, and lower incomes are still a major problem, many users like myself need to continue using old computers that can only run Windows 7. So we need Firefox ESR 115 to continue being supported with updates for at least a couple more years.

Hello. When navigating YouTube on the main page, if you simply Hover the mouse over "Previous page (Alt+Left)", then SOMETIMES strange music or some strange video plays. Important: there is no video of this unknown video, just the sound plays. Other browser tabs are closed, only the YouTube tab is open. I use Firefox ESR, since I have Windows 7, I use the latest version of Firefox ESR. The extensions that are installed are Ublock origin and uvpn. I don't know if it could have been infected by an unknown virus? I scanned with ESET, installed Comodo, but the problem was not solved. I would really like you to sort this out. Please don't ignore me. I want to understand what's going on. I am open to new questions on this topic that will help resolve this situation.

So, as has been announced, FireFox 115 ESR will get updates until septempber 2025. This deadline has been extended multiple times. What factors are being taken in consideration when deciding whether to extend support again? With server 2008 updates you can get windows 7 up to date until 2026, sort of. Ending support in september would still be sad, because people too stubborn or not willing to upgrade probably still wont when support of firefox ends. I am a firefox on windows 7 user myself too, and it would be sad if they dropped support. Ill have to use a backported fork by the community

So thats my question, what factors matter in terms of extending 115 esr support again?

I copied my home page from my old installation to another (new computer) - yadda.htm

I found out that the bookmarks toolbar is Installation Specific (boo) and that the export/import process on Firefox for the toolbar (according to Google) is hidden, convoluted. and a complete enigma (to me - can't be easy for anybody, really)

Could you please tell me how I can add to my new bookmarks toolbar from my old browser/installation without having to recreate them from scratch at my new installation?

Thank you.

Adding Home Page Shortcut Procedure does not work with FF 115.22esr for Windows 7

I did read the FF Support page on how to add a bookmark to my Home Page Shortcuts, however there is no menu to the immediate right (not the right corner of the page) of my Address Bar that will do this, as described in this page. I cannot seem to locate another link that will do this. The only workaround is to expand home shortcuts to 4 rows, keep opening tabs with the same address, delete other shortcuts, and eventually my browsing history adds it to the group.

Is there a way? I am using Windows 7, so I can only use the ESR version.

Thanks!
