When I receive an email in Outlook that contains a hyperlink, I am unable to use it. When I click onthe link, Firefox opens a new Window (even when one is already running). The only tab on the new window is my default tab. The original hyperlink does not open. (Windows 11 and Firefox all up to date).

1) It is fine if I use Edge or Chrome as my default browser. 2) I have disabled all add-ons, and restarted (and rebooted) Firefox. Same result.

I have searched the community/known issues atc but none seem to specifically show this sort of behaviour.

I've set firefox not to save files but it keeps on saving them. I have tried all the setting so it will stop doing this with no success. It just keeps filling up my downloads folder and I have to search for the one or two documents I want.

It's got so bad I've had to stop using firefox.

Hello Mozilla! For a few days, Firefox has been offering me a bad identifier when I fill out a form. It offers me my email address and now the address of a friend. However, neither of them appears in my automatic filling data of my preferences… and therefore impossible to remove it! Can you help me please? I can't find the right answer on the forums… Thank you very much to the whole team for this great work that you do.

This was for a non-public extension that I wanted to get signed, the email I received said that it was automatically screened and tentatively signed and that I could find the file on a link, but clicking on that link sent me to this site which is obviously non-existent.

I formatted my pc and forgot my password, did a reset. But apparently I lost all my FF data. BUT I'm still "logged in" my Android FF, is there anyway to create a backup using FF on Android then import that to desktop, then re-login Android using the new PW? At the very least, I'd like to recover top 1, bookmarks, 2, logins.

Hello everyone I am studying the firefox source code and how the extension works with the Developer tools console.

I have some questions that I haven't been able to solve for a whole week. Which function and where is responsible for processing Logs messages from the extension in Console?

For example i have: ``` const titleToMarkdown = async () => {

console.log("hello world");
let tabs = await browser.tabs.query({
  active: true,
  currentWindow: true,
});
console.log({ tabs });

};

browser.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(titleToMarkdown); ```

Which function in the code is responsible for displaying console.log in Console Developer Tools? I would be glad if someone would send me a link to this function in searchfox.org

Hello, can someone please tell me how I can access https://localhost:6000/ in Firefox as I need to access this address for the OctoPrint software so I can configure it.

All the articles I have read about going into the about:config and adding the port number do not work for me.

So can someone please help me with this and point me in the direction of a working article I can use?

I am using version 130.0 (64bit) of Firefox.

Any help much appreciated and thanks.

Greetings, Firefox requires a huge amount of memory (and other associated resources), and each tab consumes much resources. The resource consumption is a big problem when a few tabs are needed to support research projects. How about spending more time improving the resource utilization as opposed to developing features? The resource utilization of Firefox is poor when compared to other browsers like Brave. However, I like Firefox the best from a features standpoint. So how about it? Please put some effort into making Firefox more resource friendly. One way to get free improvement is to immediately release resources for objects that are orphaned because the associated application has been closed. Lingering resources are a complete waste.

Thanks, Dan

I use Draftsharks.com for Fantasy Football. It has a "Live Sync" feature that connects Draftsharks.com to a Fantasy Football website, such as fantasy.espn.com, to sync information such as rosters, etc. Firefox has no issues with Draftsharks syncing with the website myffpc.com for this info but it will not sync with fantasy.espn.com. At the request of Draftsharks support, I used Chrome to try the same thing, and there were no issues in Chrome connecting Draftsharks to ESPN and performing a live sync. In Firefox settings, I put ESPN in the "Manage Exceptions" area, but it still didn't work when trying to sync Draftsharks with ESPN.
