When clicking a youtube search result the search result page itself is removed from my browsing history, how is that possible?

Im not talking about when you press back and then youtube forces you to stay on the current video even though its actually a different url because it senses that you want to go back to search results which wont automatically play another video and hence make them less money... Im talking about opening a new tab, searching for something on youtube, and then when I press a video/search result, the back button is greyed out implying I wrote the whole url for that specific video into the address bar without ever searching it up... How is that possible??? How is youtube actually removing my local browser history? Is that what theyre doing or are they somehow manipulating my browser to think there is none? This stinks so badly...

I have 3 devices with different sync settings 1. Laptop (Sync every thing) 2. PC (Only sync history, logins, options) 3. Android mobiles (Only sync history, logins, options)
But from 1 or 2 day agos, all of them suddenly share the same sync settings. When I change sync settings of one device, other devices sync those settings, too.
Is the sync functions got any new update recently?
Firefox Developer Edition 72.0b1 (64-bit) not working with any streaming sites (except YouTube)

I have been trying - without success - to stream netflix, hulu, hbo go and disney plus using Firefox Developer edition for the last several months. Each time I go to Netflix it tells me the widevine CDM plugin crashes.
I get various errors while trying to view any videos on Netflix, including "your network does not support streaming" - which I know to be false due to the two ROKU devices on two separate TVs in the house, my PS4 and Chrome all functioning properly on my machine.
On disney plus I see Error 83 - and have attached a few screen shots.
I went to the Shaka Player Demo (as referenced in another ticket) and it also crashed with the following error: Shaka Error MEDIA.VIDEO_ERROR (3,,NS_ERROR_DOM_MEDIA_FATAL_ERR (0x806e0005) - void __cdecl mozilla::gmp::ChromiumCDMParent::Shutdown(void): ChromiumCDMParent is shutdown)
I have reset firefox - made sure it's updated to the latest version, unchecked and rechecked the DRM checkbox, erased all and created new profiles several times. downloaded (manually) the widevine latest CDM version (according to firefox) and placed fully downloaded versions of the dll files into the proper directory.
I am still getting errors.
I would prefer to use Firefox if at all possible, as I appreciate the tracking protections it affords. I have also - on a trial basis - excepted Disney Plus tracking protections and content restrictions (autoplay allow, all tracking protections off) and I have no extensions running save my 1password extension.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi,
For some reason, my Firefox theme and Search box options reset themselves today. There was no issue yesterday, and I have not updated Firefox, extensions, plugins or Windows or anything else since then. Bookmarks/Top Sites are all as before, and restarting my machine and Firefox made no difference. I also over-saved the search settings file in my Firefox profile, but that has made no difference either.
Any ideas why this has happened?
Thanks!

Recently, there was a very simple one line command bar that one could get to from within firefox by pressing Shift+F2. It allowed one to take screenshots and restart the browser. But i notice it is no longer there in Firefox 70.0, is this an oversight. Some articles refer to it as GCLI.

Unable to open Word and Excel documents from within SharePoint. This has never been an issue but now the error message is shown. "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (ms-word) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context." The documents should either open in the browser or trigger the desktop app. Installing older versions hasn't fixed this.
Looking for solutions, thanks

Seit dem heutigen Update auf 71.0 erscheinen überall ZWEI Zeilen bei den Zugangsdaten. In der ersten steht der Nutzername (den brauche ich) und in der zweiten steht nutzloses Zeug wie "von dieser Webseite". Die zweite Zeile will ich entfernen. Sie macht das Ganze total unübersichtlich und die Listen irre lang. Wie kriege ich die wieder weg? Bisher gab es sie nicht - und das war gut so!

After Firefox updated, I can no longer access www.apple.com. This is the error I get now:
Blocked by X-Frame-Options Policy
An error occurred during a connection to idmsa.apple.com.
Firefox prevented this page from loading in this context because the page has an X-Frame-Options policy that disallows it.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue as soon as possible. Thank You.

When I turned on two-factor authentication, I was presented with some recovery codes which I downloaded to a secure folder. Later, I tried to use one code. The codes downloaded as lower-case letters but the form for using them converted every letter to uppercase and the codes I had just downloaded were rejected.

Dear support,
The spellcheck hightlights two gramatticaly good and correct words (in Czech language), when a paragraph break is a divider:
Source code (one line ends with `</p>`, the other line begins with no tag): `Inspekční prohlídka</p> Nejpozději za`
Spellcheck error attached as a screenshot. I consider this a false (incorrect) behavior. The two words should not be highlighted (and they are not, when written next to each other with a space between them).

Hopefully someone will pick this up? Since my Surface Pro updated to Windows 1909 everytime Firefox updates it causes problems with sound. This is whether I am watching video outside Firefox, watching You tube in Firefox or any video in Firefox.
Symptoms.
Watching video in external video player, not having opened Firefox since rebooting surface pro - no issues Open Firefox watch a couple of vids on YouTube and sound fails - try going back to watching videos outside Firefox, video still failed.
Cure- reload Windows.
New update for Firefox (yesterday) and problem re-appears again.
This happened a couple of years ago and I solved it then by deleting Firefox from my Surface Pro. After about 6 months I decided to give it another chance and all was good until after the 1909 update and Firefox updated. Reloaded Windows 1909 (clean copy) and all ok again until yesterday when Firefox updated again.
Guess I'm going to have to reload Windows again to cure the issue caused by Firefox, again.
