Firefox Community Forum

since v150 came out ive been having an issue where i get a flash of white on start up if i have Homepage and new windows as Firefox home with a wallpaper... i have re-installed firefox and tested it as default and it still happens. seems the wallpapers have a delay till it displays properly.

I am using Win 11, Microsoft Powertoys > Fancy Zones to manage the screen space on my 5120 x 1440 monitor. I also have System > Display > Multiple Displayers "Remember window locations based on monitor connection" enabled.

Any program I have besides FF will load up exactly where I had it last. FF shifts I am guessing 8 pixels to the right (or left, as this occurs if I close FF on the right side of the monitor.) If you look at the screenshots, the "opened at default" picture shows what FF looks like when I open it. You can see the xulstore.json file shows the screenX position is -8. If I manually type in 0, close out FF and reopen it, it will still shift back to the right a bit even with the .json still saying 0

How do I do one less thing when I turn the pc on and have FF open exactly as far left as possible instead of shifting over to the right?

I have about 19 jillion saved addresses in autofill. I know how to delete individual addresses, but I'd like to know if there's a way to select multiple entries or to delete all of them in a single operation.

This has happened randomly on several different computers, both windows and ubuntu linux. It just now happened on my Win 11 computer. Was viewing the CNN news site and FF suddenly closed, without a "FF crashed..." message.When I clicked the icon to reopen it, it came up with the home page group of tabs instead of reopening the windows and tabs that were opened when it crashed. Worse, none of the previous months of history shows up and recently closed tabs and windows are both greyed out.

Is there a way of recovering the history of what I was working on at the time of the crash and what the hell is causing this? I am close to dumping FF and going with something else as this is highly annoying.

Hi,

I searched the web for deleting the item "Weitere Lesezeichen" in the sidebar. I found only solutions for the firefox 85. In Firefox 85 should be a field for hiding this. Although in Firefox 150 it can`t be hided or deleted. I don`t need and I don`t want this "Weitere Lesezeichen". Any solutions?

When I click on the star icon in the address bar the star icon is filled in, and existing bookmarks show with the filled-in star icon. But I no longer get a dropdown where I can edit, tag, or delete an existing bookmark, and URLs I click on don't show up in Recently Bookmarked so they haven't been added.

The places.sqlite file in my profile is not read-only, and I restarted Firefox (stupidly, before I took a screenshot of the pinned shortcuts on my new tabs page) and that made no difference.

Thanks in advance for any help!

On my home screen, the visited sites are all crammed to one side, lower left, and all narrow in their appearance. I prefer they look as they did before, with the "tabs" or site boxes along the bottom of my regular sites. And I can't seem to "delete" the sites I visit; I can only dismiss them. And that often doesn't work as well either.

Best topic is covered by all of the options, unfortunately! If I have done anything incorrectly it was done thru lack of tech savvy for which I apologize for. I have to go take care of the horses now, thank you for any help you may have.

I can't log into chase.com from Firefox, which I've been doing for years. I get an outage message. But down detector shows nothing. It went on for days so I tried Microsoft Edge with Bing and it works. Is there some Firefox setting I need to change?

I use multiple Firefox profiles and create separate desktop shortcuts for each profile using Firefox’s built-in profile shortcut option. I then pin each profile shortcut to the Windows taskbar so I can launch them independently.

The issue is that when I click one of the pinned profile icons, Firefox opens a new separate taskbar group/icon instead of attaching the window to the already pinned taskbar item for that specific profile.

For example:

• I pin Profile A and Profile B separately to the taskbar.
• When Profile A is already open and I click its pinned icon again, Windows creates another Firefox taskbar button/group instead of reusing the existing pinned Profile A button.
• Google Chrome profiles do not behave this way on Windows — each profile stays grouped with its own pinned taskbar icon as expected.

Is this a known limitation/bug with Firefox profiles on Windows taskbar integration, or is there a way to make Firefox profile shortcuts behave like Chrome profile shortcuts?
