Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:156.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/156.0

Win 11 Home 26H2 26300.9550 and Firefox 157.0 or higher.

This problem exists for me, in FF 157.0, FF 157.0.1, and FF 159.0a1


Never saw this issue before FF 157.0

I 'always' save my edited images to my desktop, prior to uploading them to a website. Doesn't matter what image editor I use.

MY problem is "uploading" those images to TenForums and ElevenForum. The upload dialog, before FF 157.0, would always look on the desktop for the image I wanted to upload.

Since FF 157.0... if I save anything to any drive, and then try to upload an image to a website like ElevenForum, the upload dialog will look for the image(s) on whatever drive I saved something to.

Workaround: I restart Firefox AND browse once to my desktop, where the image is located. Then it looks on my desktop every time for images I want to upload... ...UNTIL I save anything to any partition on my drives, then MY problem returns.


I see this problem when uploading images to elevenforum.com and tenforums.com Drag & Drop (in 11Forum), works fine, probably because when I drag & drop I'm declaring the file path automatically. I only see the problem in... Attach > and the upload dialog


This is very hard to explain. I export my bookmarks to F:\Bookmarks After doing that, instead of looking on my desktop where the images are, it looks for them in F:\Bookmarks.

If I save anything (like a text file), on any drive/partition... when I try to upload an image on my desktop to ElevenForum.com the upload dialog doesn't look for the image on my desktop.

I don't see this issue on FF 156.0.1 or any version before FF 157.0

Some of our property reports go to tenants as PDFs for a signature, and a few of them only use Firefox, so I'd like to point them to the built-in PDF viewer rather than asking them to install anything.

If someone signs with the draw tool and then saves with the download button, does the signature stay in the file and show up properly in other readers like Adobe Acrobat? And is there a better tool in the viewer for signatures than freehand drawing?

Don't know where it should be. But here is the issue: I check my personal email often, so I used to open Firefox, click the address bar, and my Outlook would be at the top. Now, for whatever reason, Firefox tries very hard to make that disappear, even though that is my most-used website. First, it'll drop a few places in drop-down, then some more, and then disappear. To bring it back, I'll have to delete unwanted links (the ones I open like once a month!) from history, and after quite a bit of work, Outlook will be back. Then rinse and repeat.....How can I fix this?

I've been using firefox for a little while- maybe three months now. I'm no expert on any of the config options. I run firefox using the built in VPN that my friend showed me how to enable, and I've been using it since. But now, as of roughly today, whenever I enable the VPN, no websites will load. At all. When I turn it off, they load instantly. But whenever I turn it on, it just gets stuck loading forever and ever, never actually getting anywhere. I tried enabling network.dns.disableIPv6 in the config page, because that's what I saw on a mozilla support page- nothing. Didn't do anything. The browser.ipprotection.enabled is still on, and I didn't change anything in settings. There was a firefox update very recently, but everything still worked with the VPN on. I just updated my computer, but I don't think that's it either because it wasn't loading things earlier today either. Not sure how to fix this. Please help?

These are readable with thunderbird, but not with firefox after I changed to a new laptop with higher resolution.

Composition is forcibly committed and current key is dropped when typing quickly with Microsoft Pinyin (TSF)

Environment: - Firefox 157.0.1 (64-bit) - Windows 11 (build 26100) - IME: Microsoft Pinyin (TSF) Steps to reproduce: 1. Open any page with a text input (e.g. chat.deepsee… (read more)

Environment: - Firefox 157.0.1 (64-bit) - Windows 11 (build 26100) - IME: Microsoft Pinyin (TSF)

Steps to reproduce: 1. Open any page with a text input (e.g. chat.deepseek.com). 2. Type quickly in Chinese Pinyin, e.g. "zuihou". 3. At some point during composition, the current composition ("zu") is committed as raw pinyin (with the apostrophe separator preserved), and the next key ("i") starts a new composition.

Expected behavior: - The composition should continue normally, and all keys should be consumed by the IME. - No raw pinyin string should ever be committed.

Actual behavior: - Firefox delivers the key event to the web page with keyCode 73 ("i") instead of keyCode 229 (Process), so the IME never receives it. - The IME's internal composition state stays at "zu" while the browser display has already moved on. - When the next key arrives, the IME commits the stale "zu" as raw pinyin and starts a new composition. - This results in the composition being split into two parts, with the first part committed as raw pinyin containing the "'" separator.

Additional context: - The problem occurs only in Firefox. In Edge (Chromium) on the same machine, typing the same sequence for several minutes never reproduces it. - It does not occur with every key; only certain keystrokes are affected, and it seems to require fast typing. - The issue is not caused by keyboard hardware, third-party software (AutoHotkey, yasb, PixPin, Intel drivers, MuMu), or key injection. A low-level keyboard hook log shows no injected events (inj=0 for all 204 keystrokes).
