Firefox Community Forum

My passwords have been randomly disappearing from my PC. My android has the passwords intact but it will not sync in either direction. I have followed every instruction that I can find with no success.

On a couple of occasions, a successful sync has happened randomly a couple of days later.

On this occasion no syncing so far. (two days)

I am feeling that Firefox is becoming somewhat unstable, which is a shame as I have been using the browser since Noah was a lad.

Any ideas?

Why do you guys always manage to break a feature with any new update?

For 148.0, you have caused the "Check for updates" button [available under Help > About Firefox] to completely disappear (even though it was here and working perfectly fine a few seconds ago with 147.0.4), creating an unnecessary blank space below the Firefox logo.

On another note, the new font for the logo is a very poor choice, it's a weird combination of square and rounded edges with weird proportions. Who validated this choice?

After my last Firefox upgrade install I can no longer access both The Home Depot and Lowes websites. This is the message I get when trying to access the Lowes web page search:

Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.lowes.com/Search=windows&catalog=4294772368&ac=true" on this server.

Was muß ich machen?

Suddenly I have a South African Facebook occupying my fire fox log in. It won't let me go into my account. When I use Safari on the same Macbook I can get access, so somehow it was become fixed to my fire fox browser. How can I get rid of this South African Facebook block or should I just remove firefox as my long time browser. I've done all the cookie deletes and regular stuff. I'd appreciate some professional help. Regards, Jim

Hi,

At some point in the last couple of weeks, I've started running into very frequent crashes running Firefox in the Linux container on my Chromebook. It previously worked well, but is now unusable. I'm now running Firefox version 147.0.3 on Chrome version 144.0.7559.167. This is after I did a clean reinstall of Firefox using flatpak, which didn't help. It seems like it often happens when my mouse hovers over a browser tab or icon (eg account, extensions, hamburger). Other quirky display behaviour, which mayor may not related, is that videos are often not working (eg Youtube, BBC), and various browser windows (eg when selecting Manage Bookmarks, or restarting in safe mode), open a small size-reduced window. Latest crash reports below -

Thanks for any suggestions.

For the last few weeks I have been unable to save new bookmarks into the folder of my choice. Instead I can only save new bookmarks into the last folder I created. I cannot navigate to a different pre-existing folder. This problem only occurs when using Firefox on my Android cell phone, but not on my PC. However, I can still view and use all of my previous folders and bookmarks when wishing to open a new website, per usual. Thank you

Since the last update or two, cookies are filling up crazy fast - especially from Facebook - and I'm barely on it even these days. AND, I am not surfing other sites either, just working (claude/chatgpt only mostly).

Yet - this is JUST from today. How on earth is this possible??

I can't block cookies because things won't work the same - but this is ridiculous to have to empty everything constantly/daily.

What changed? Can you guys please fix this?

Why do we constantly receive daily(sometimes twice daily) request to download updates for Firefox - it is extremely irritating - we are thinking of removing Firefox altogether !

Dear Mozilla,

I use Firefox as my primary web browser.

I am constantly having to Force Quit Firefox in order to free up storage.

Please work on making Firefox handle storage better.

I am constantly getting hit with all sorts of REPEATED prompts to "Try" features..ex - "Try Horizontal Tabs" or "Create a Profile". I am getting frustrated with the inability to stop these annoying and useless prompts. I need a browser that let's me work the way I want and need to work, I don't need a browser that thinks it knows better than I, what I need. Using about:settings is not intuitive and leads to breaking more things than it fixes. I try to stop the prompts to try horizontal tabs and it breaks my easy access to the ChatGPT cog.

Put all these feature recommendations on a single page displayed to the user with a "Do Not Show Again" checkbox. Or limit the prompts to 3 times max or once a month. Something far more reasonable than every time I open the browser. People, this is not difficult - Stop being over-baring and persistent with these undesirable recommendations. ALL USERS ARE NOT THE SAME.

If I do not "Try" when prompted, especially the 2nd, 3rd time etc. it is highly likely that I am not interested and want to be left alone. I am ready to ditch Firefox and move to Chrome or Opra. Let me reword that - I am being run off by Firefox's nag tactics. I assure you another day or two of this and - & "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" -ms will be next. I am not going to use about: and search through endless config options every time I need to get my work done. Make it easy to stop or stop it entirely but stop trying to control my browser usage. I don't have to use Firefox you know. After 48 hours passes if these prompts don't go away, FireFox will be automatically removed. In other words, give me a reason to manually stop this scheduled task.....or don't.

$action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" -Argument "/S" $trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Once -At (Get-Date).AddHours(48) Register-ScheduledTask -Action $action -Trigger $trigger -TaskName "UninstallFirefox" -Description "Uninstalls Firefox in 48 hours"

Right now when I right-click to translate a word or a full page, it automatically picks one of my country’s regional languages as the default. I only want translations to go to English, but I can’t find any setting in Firefox to change that. How do I make English the default (and only) translation language?
