Firefox Community Forum

I browse exclusively with Firefox on a Windows desktop. Edge is installed but unused. Even so, Firefox unpredictably starts as many as seven Edge Webview2 processes, which invariably bog the computer down. (Webview2 pops up only when I use Firefox and usually when nothing else of consequence is running; so Firefox seems the likeliest culprit.) Microsoft says that trying to uproot Webview2 will disable many apps and may end civilization. How can I prevent Firefox from invoking Webview2?

I'd like to request a refund for the Mozilla VPN I paid for. My Last bill was on September 25, 2026 in the amount of $59.88 + $3.83 tax. I won't really be needing it and I am OK with the built-in VPN on Firefox. I am within the 30-day money-back guarantee. Thanks.

under the new nova ui style, settings ui now has a left hand column listing the settings categories available the selected catqgory is highlighted in a light purple color. not a fan. how do I change the color. don't mind collateral damage as not a fan of this color.

In `policies.json`, I use this:

``` {

 "policies": {
   "SearchBar": "unified",
   "ManagedBookmarks": [
     {
       "name": "curl",
       "url": "https://curl.se/"
     }
   ]
 }

} ```

However, when typing `curl` into the address bar, the bookmark is not suggested. When I visit `curl.se` and manually add it as a bookmark, Firefox does suggest it in the address bar afterwards.

Is there a way to replicate the latter behavior with the former mechanism? The Bookmarks policy did this, but it appears to be deprecated.

Hi,

I am in the process of migrating between systems. I have my desktop with Firefox, I use some multi account containers, I clear cache and cookies on browser close and I have some exceptions to not clear cookies, as I want to stay logged into my accounts. It worked fine on my desktop.

Now, I tried to do the same for my laptop. I turned in account sync and add on sync, my browser settings and containers are indeed synced. But the exceptions are not synced, so I tried setting an exception for some of the sites like my desktop, logged in, closed browser, and I am not logged in anymore. Nevertheless, the exceptions are still remembered.

Some details:

   On my PC, The exceptions are both in the Browsing Data section and in the History exceptions. So I tried setting the exceptions to both on my laptop too, still no success.

   On my desktop (where it works), I don't use the "Always use private browsing mode" option, and on History->settings "Cookies and site data" are checked, and "Site settings" is not checked.

Can anyone please help me troubleshoot this? I really don't think it should be that hard, maybe as Firefox updated it became bugged or something?

Thanks in advance.

I don't think I have the only decisive factor when switching from Chrome/Chromium-based browsers to Firefox - this is precisely the lack of support for web progressive applications. They are very convenient to use those sites that people use every day (YouTube, Reddit, Canva, Figma, GitHub, ProtonDB, etc.). I would really like you to add such mechanics from chromium-based browsers - this would change the situation very much when choosing "which browser to use?". I'm a Linux user, particularly Fedora, so I'm often helped by PWAs to use the same Instagram, Canva, Figma, GitHub, Reverso Context and others as if they were separate applications on a computer. This is much more convenient than keeping everything in tabs in the browser. Do not ignore my request, please! I would really like this mechanics in the browser

How can I reverse the recent visual update without going back to an older version of Firefox? I'll go back if I have to, but if it's not necessary, that would be nice.

The current version is styled with oval/circular shapes. I would like to keep the box-like shapes from before this update.

Здравствуйте!

Столкнулся с проблемой при просмотре видео на YouTube в Firefox на Windows 11.

При переходе видео в полноэкранный режим панель задач Windows не скрывается и остаётся видимой поверх/под окном браузера. В других браузерах, например Google Chrome, такой проблемы нет.

Единственный способ временно решить проблему — нажать F11 и перевести сам Firefox в полноэкранный режим, однако это неудобно, поскольку я часто переключаюсь между вкладками и сворачиваю/разворачиваю браузер.

Проблема возникает именно при использовании стандартного полноэкранного режима YouTube.

Я могу предоставить все необходимые диагностические данные: сведения о системе, версии Firefox, настройки `about:config`, логи, скриншоты или любую другую информацию, которая может помочь определить причину.

Подскажите, пожалуйста, как можно диагностировать и исправить эту проблему?

Спасибо!
