Firefox Support Forum

I am currently on version 110 of firefox. It is driving me crazy how there is no physical object or deliminator between tabs. they all just blend in. Is there any way to add the "|" (pipe command) between the tabs so they have some sort of separation?

thanks

Hi.

Firefox is very slow. If i do the same browsing, in Chrome, there is no problems.

Reinstall Firefox, and all the guides, is tested - no luck.

I really love Firefox, and have used it, for many years, but this slow experience - that will scare me away.

Roboform not working with Firefox version 110.0 on Windows 11. Works on Chrome and Edge. I've always preferred Firefox, but I'm very dependent on Roboform, so I'm migrating to Chrome until Firefox is able to see Roboform.

I used mozbackup to backup my profile on firefox & thunderbird using windows 8.1.

My computer crashed and had to get new harddrive & motherboard, have tried number of times to import my profile into your lateset firefox & thunderbird using windows 11.

The files are there but it does not show them when I try to import my profile into both programs, can you help me as I have lots of bookmarks in firefox and lots of folders in thunderbird I need to get access to.

Can't logon to td.com: 400 Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

The problem is that every time I try to do a search it makes me prove I'm not a robot. There is a message : "Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen?"

When I click on "Why did this happen" I get this:

"This page appears when Google automatically detects requests coming from your computer network which appear to be in violation of the Terms of Service. The block will expire shortly after those requests stop. In the meantime, solving the above CAPTCHA will let you continue to use our services.

This traffic may have been sent by malicious software, a browser plug-in, or a script that sends automated requests. If you share your network connection, ask your administrator for help — a different computer using the same IP address may be responsible. Learn more

Sometimes you may be asked to solve the CAPTCHA if you are using advanced terms that robots are known to use, or sending requests very quickly. "

This is happens on my Lap Top PC, I only have it on once in a while, I usually use my desktop and no problems with it. I have done all the recommended things, like clearing cache, delete all cookies, used Troubleshoot mode, did a install refresh, etc . All with no luck.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

I am trying to setup firefox to my liking automatically To this end, I am using "firefox profile maker" and it works great but I'm having issues adding all the add-ons that I like.

Only the add-ons that are included in ffprofile make seem to install properly (but also, now I can't uninstall them ??)

Anyway here is my full process for installing firefox automatically and then configuring it automatically. Perhaps you can hep me figure it out.

First I install firefox automatically using the offline installer (my computers do not have access to internet by default, I must whitelist each computer, then individual software then individual websites first)

So, I obtain the offline installer from this URL https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/111.0/win64/en-CA/Firefox%20Setup%20111.0.exe

Next I have used the website https://ffprofile.com/ to create a pre-made profile

This yields two files, and their contents profile.zip

profile\prefs.js profile\extensions\CanvasBlocker@kkapsner.de.xpi profile\extensions\uBlock0@raymondhill.net.xpi enterprise_policy.zip defaults\pref\autoconfig.js distribution\policies.json firefox.cfg

Next, I have pre-downloaded added all the add-on files I would like to install to the add-on folder However, when I perform the procedure, only canvas blocker and uBlock0 get installed

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. If I take all the add-on files, dump them all into firefox, it opens 16 tabs On each tab I can now click add and click okay, if I do it right and quick enough, they all install, unless I miss one.

That's over 50 clicks and very annoying !

Here is the list of add-ons I'm trying to add

extensions\umibo-2.4.2.xpi extensions\amp2html-2.1.0.xpi extensions\close_tabs_right-1.2.4.xpi extensions\cookie_autodelete-3.8.2.xpi extensions\copy_tabs-1.12.35.xpi extensions\darkreader-4.9.62.xpi extensions\facebook_container-2.3.9.xpi extensions\google_container-1.5.4.xpi extensions\istilldontcareaboutcookies-1.1.1.xpi extensions\merge_window-1.0.2.xpi extensions\old_reddit_redirect-1.6.1.xpi extensions\order_tabs_by_domain-0.2.3.xpi extensions\privacy_badger17-2023.1.31.xpi extensions\spoof_geolocation-0.1.1.xpi extensions\tab_manager_plus_for_firefox-5.2.0.xpi extensions\traduzir_paginas_web-9.6.1.xpi

I have created a script that I run after installing firefox using this command

"Firefox Setup 111.0.exe" /S

Then I run the following script to automatically install my pre-made profile

Firefox-deploy-ffprofile.bat

@echo off set z7EXE=%PROGRAMFILES%\7-Zip\7z.exe set EnterpriseConfig=firefox-profile\enterprise_policy.zip set ProfileConfig=firefox-profile\profile.zip set FirefoxProfile= set FirefoxInstallFolder=%PROGRAMFILES%\Mozilla Firefox\ set FirefoxProfilesFolder=%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

tasklist /nh /fi "imagename eq firefox.exe" | find /i "firefox.exe" > nul if %errorlevel% equ 0 (echo Firefox is still running & taskkill /f /im firefox.exe & timeout /t 5 )

end

echo firefox deployment finished

I am new to Firefox, and have just discovered that in order to open a new private window I must use the Ctrl + Shift + P keyboard shortcut which is pretty much impossible to accomplish with one hand. I tried to use this extension:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/shortkeys/

But sadly my new added shortcuts were not opening the new private window while the ctrl + shift + p still worked, and it appears that this extension is only able to add new shortcuts and not change nor delete the existing ones. I want to assign a comfortable keyboard shortcut for opening a we private window (optionally unassign the Ctrl + Shift + N from Undo close window and assign that keyboard to open a new private window).

Cannot logon danish e-boks.dk from Firefox with MitID authentication used for banking and communication with the authorities. Using using Firefox on Windows 10. MitID says it is a recent Firefox update causing the problem. Use another browser, they say. Mobile phone Samsung/Android browser has a similar problem. So maybe the problems are also in MitID updates and MitID tests have only been carried out on Google Chrome and MS Edge :(

If I click on any "mailto" link the only options are Gmail or Firefox.

If I go into Settings and choose applications then content type: mailto the same options are there- nothing for Yahoo Mail.

It used to be there, now it has gone.

Using version 110.0.1

Is there any way to manually add Yahoo mail to Firefox?

Installed Ffx on my Win 10. Works Great. Installed on Win 11. Cannot find Norton Safe Search as an extension or as a search engine.

I clicked on a link in Win 11 and almost got into a malicious site. Would not have done so with Norton SS because it shows colored bubbles by each link. Would have seen a red bubble.

How can I get it to work in Ffx?

Thank you.

In Ebay - Print invoices link opens print preview window inside page -> I can view document (invoice) then click print button to open print window -> window opens but the document is blank, just a white page, no text. If I click print, it just prints a blank page. I can download the document as PDF from print preview page and this prints ok but I can't print directly from the ebay page. This only happens in Firefox. Works ok in Edge and Chrome. I have uninstalled Firefox including profiles etc and re-installed, problem still exists. I can print shipping labels via Ebay just not invoices. No issues with printing anything from any other ebay page or other websites.
