Firefox Support Forum

I want to clear cache and cookies. I hit Ctrl-Shift-Del. This presents various options of what to delete.

One thing I do not want to delete: Firefox has somehow learned the URLs for some oft-used websites. For instance, maybe I visit microsoft.com frequently - and Firefox automatically suggests the rest of that URL, as soon as I hit the letter M. (I would also like to know how to teach Firefox to behave that way, for various letters of the alphabet.)

It seems that, if I make full use of the deletion options available via Ctrl-Shift-Del, Firefox deletes those oft-used URLs along with everything else. So then I have to type the full URL, until it relearns that entering M probably means I'm going to microsoft.com.

How can I clear cache and cookies without losing those remembered URLs?

I am getting this in the settings and am unable to modify parts of firefox like add extensions for last pass and display of bookmarks. This came after an update. This makes firefox useless to me. I have removed and reinstalled firefox twice, once without using any info from the previous install. I have looked for the distribution file, but can't find it. Any suggestions before I just remove it permanently from all devices I use. My organization is me!

Hi, I just updated to the latest version of Firefox (auto), suddenly now, when I right click and quit upon closing, another icon appears, quitting again, another appears. I remove from doc, but same thing happens again upon quitting. Any help with this greatly appreciated.

Thank You.

I get this message on certain websites:

  We could not verify that you are human. Please refresh the page and try again.

Why is that? I have the latest version of FF on my desktop. Please let me know. Thanks, Betsy

With the latest version 112.0.2 NordPass stopped functioning properly. Will not autofill. This happens on all 3 of my computers 2 are windows 10 and a win 7). Other browsers (Edge. Brave etc) work fine. I have cloned backup of system disks. I booted from a backup drive, which has previous version of the browser. and NordPass works fine. I tried several troubleshooting steps: turned off all other extensions - complete uninstall of NordPass and did an install - lowered security protection - used CCleaner & Privazer to clean system after each step. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Firefox is is my default browser.

Firefox blocks out some posts with an 'OBJ' box as follows: Eagle lady (Jean Keene) sign from the Homer spit. This is one of my favorite signs in my collection. I’m pretty sure that she was the only person ever to be allowed to feed eagles and probably the last. She started feeding them in the 70s for about 20 years until she passed away. She was a tough, unique woman. She started off as a rodeo daredevil in the 50’s and worked for the Red River Rodeo as a trick rider.  Jean worked with many celebrities, including the likes of Gene Autry also known as the “singing cowboy.” She eventually had to retire from the rodeo, because she got hurt on a horse. She drove semi trucks and opened a dog and cat grooming business before eventually moving to Homer Alaska.

        If anybody else has any peninsula signs from the past, and would like to share please do so, we would love to see them.

WHY? WHY? WHY?

In Firefox my google map location shows that I live in Maryland when I live in San Francisco.When I use Chrome this doesn't happen. I have spent the last two day trying all the solution Ive found online. Windows has my location correctly. Ive tried other map programs and they seem to have the correct location. Ive done everything suggested by google to fix my location but it still is incorrect. What am I missing Thanks Mark

In the middle of the FF home page, the search box functions normally, but not on a new tab page. The box is fake and typing automatically goes to the address bar. I changed the setting in about:preferences#search to "Add search bar in toolbar." That resulted in adding a 2" search bar to the right of the address bar with a TINY font. VERY difficult to see.

Next in about:config, I switched this to false: "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar ". But, that didn't fix it.

An article on askvg.com said to do the above, but to do it in FF's NIGHTLY. To get the search box to function in the center of the page, will I have to install Firefox Nightly alongside my normal Firefox Release and fix it there? Then will it sync over to my regular FF and fix it? Or, is there another way?

Hello, in version 112.0 editor.use_div_for_default_newlines in FALSE it does not work. When I write in certain forums, it creates a double space between lines, any help?

It worked until today when i update it.

Thx.

Hi, I cant see my enables extensions in my toolbar on my PC. When I sync it does not call in the same settings. The browswer on a different laptop shows my enabled extensions. Whats gone wrong?/ How do i fix this please. Thanks

For the first time, I have got a message 'For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar.' I have always used the bookmarks toolbar. This message just takes up space, so I would like to get rid of it.

New Firefox version 112.0 turn my browsing to hell. It logs off me from all sites when I switch off my computer and after I come back online read cookies wrong.

How can I roll back to the previous version?

Please just answer to MY question. No dreams and fantasies, please.
