how do i completely stop updates? or at least until i restart the browser, not the browser making me restart it. i have it set to "Check for updates but let you choose to install them", but its not really a choice if im forced to press the button to continue browsing...

it happens twice a day that firefox prevents me browsing and makes me wait 30 seconds for it to update after clicking the "restart firefox and update" button. very frustrating.

About a Possible Display Bug in Firefox on macOS

Hi everyone,

I'm using the Firefox browser (version 128.11.0esr (64-bit)) on MacOS (version 15.5 (24F74)) and experiencing a possible display bug in the ChatGPT website’s project window (as the attached Image-1.jpg shows).

When a self-defined ChatGPT project contains multiple chats, which means the right part of the website page needs to be scroll-able to show all its chats, it seems that it cannot be scrolled using Firefox, and no scrollbar appears. Yet I noticed that the chat list on the left can be scrolled normally.

Besides, I had another try using Chrome, and it work fine there (as shown in attached Image-Chrome.jpg.)

It's quite annoying since I have to switch to Chrome—not my default Firefox—to completely explore all my chats every time. Could someone please verify this and fix it if it is not just on my end?

Dear Mozilla,

Have a copy of Firefox portable, that I use on a USB stick. Before Firefox 140, it updated properly. Now, I find that it keeps staying on version 135, even though it keeps telling me it has updated to the latest version. Puzzled by this. Can you please advise me on this problem?

I have a 120Hz display with dynamic refresh rate enabled in the Windows settings (48Hz-120Hz). With dynamic refresh rate enabled Firefox locks browsing at 60Hz. With dynamic refresh rate disabled Firefox shows all websites at 120Hz. Due to battery efficiency reasons I would like to use dynamic refresh rate but still use Firefox with 120Hz across all websites. Is there a hidden setting which I have missed? Thanks!

I'm writing an extendion wich needs to download a file:

```js

   let url = URL.createObjectURL(new Blob([content + '\n']));
   try {
       const id = await browser.downloads.download(
           {
               filename: "some_name",
               saveAs: false,
               conflictAction: "overwrite",
               url: url
           }
       );
       await browser.downloads.erase({id: id});
   } finally {
       URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
   }

```

If the file does not exist yet, it works great. If the file exists but is exactly the same, it still works. But if there is a need to override the file with different content, the file gets deleted and it is not being replaced.

According to inotifywait, the new file IS created, but immediately deleted.

Do I understand something wrong? What am I supposed to do?

All of the sudden Firefox no longer opening previous windows and tabs on startup, which is how I have had it set up forever.

The last few days, instead of opening previous windows and tabs when I launch FF, it opens mu Home Page. I then have to "reopen previously-closed windows " or "restore previous session."

Regardless of which I choose, I then have to manually close the first FF instance (the one with the single tab - my home page). Then when I'm done with my browser and I X out of it (or Exit" out), when I come back in the same thing happens - I'm presented with my home page, not my open tabs.
