Hello there. Firefox has just updated to 130.0, and it’s changed the appearance of the dark theme. There are now blazing white borders around the buttons in the toolbar.

This defeats the object of having a dark mode. They also flicker off and on when the cursor passes over them. I fear it may already be giving me a headache.

Is there anything that can be done about this? Some option I’ve missed to make dark mode actually dark again? User-control of theme components would be the dream, so we could darken the text on browser tabs and the menu bar as well.

The update which was released recently, 130.0 (64-bit) is causing issues across my company. Those who've installed it via the Microsoft Store or had an admin manually install it are unable to launch Firefox, with an "application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022) pop up that appears several times when it is closed and Firefox never opens.

Under About Firefox, I see an error that it is "unable to check for update due to an internal error".


I've been able to get Firefox to install by completely removing it and installing with the EXE as an admin. However when I do I am unable to restore my user's Bookmarks from the JSON file as regardless where that file is, Firefox claims it does not have permission to access the file. The same occurs if attempting to upload a file, Firefox again claims a permissions error. Finally if you download a file, you cannot launch it from the Firefox toolbar, again because of permissions.

The files are in folders that all users have access to, I have confirmed that the user account, SYSTEM and Authenticated Users all have access to the folders the files reside in. I would upload screenshots, but as mentioned Firefox doesn't have permission to do so.

Thank you, Jeremy Hellstrom

i've been using JetInsight.com for more than 18 months. it is bookmarked. suddenly, it will not operate in firefox. it used to automatically log me in, now it asks for a login, but never even gets past that to ask for a passwork.

Hi, my issue is my banking web page login was working just fine, until the last week or so when I could no longer sign into the site. I called the bank and they troubleshoot is and we found they could sign in with temp password, I could not with Firefox browser. So I switched browser to Edge and no problem.

I went back to try to troubleshoot for Firefox browser. Page loads just fine, but when I try to log in I get having technical issue please try again or call customer support. I did call the bank the web page is working just fine, just can login using Firefox browser. I tried to clear out history and cookies, got the same message of please try again. I changed my settings from strict to standard and still same message. I am using Mozilla VPN and changed different locations and still same message for several locations. So I just turned off VPN and tried to login and same message of please try again. So not using the VPN should have worked, but it didn't.

Any other browser that I use will work just fine. So something is blocking my access to a banking web page. No sure what else to try. I don't like Edge and have always used Firefox. The web page was working just fine even with VPN on to login. Not sure if the latest update to Firefox browser cause a conflict for the issue I am having. Appreciate any help you can provide to help resolve the issue at hand. t

Recently, I've run into logging in on at least two websites where I have two-factor authentication set up. I'll click the sign in button, and rather than advancing to ask for my authentication code, I get stuck in an endless loading loop and am unable to do anything.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? I have already tried clearing cache and cookies and restarting in safe mode.

This issue only happens to me on desktop. The mobile version of firefox still lets me log in, but I prefer to use desktop.

Using Firefox for windows. Have browser set to never save patient's addresses. After clearing cache/cookies on 9/4/24, Firefox is now asking to save addresses. The box to do so remains unchecked. Cleared saved data again, restarted computer and Firefox. Still asks. Do not want to save addresses for every patient payment entered. It is a HIPAA violation waiting to happen. Not to mention, the constant pop-up asking to save is a distraction from accurate patient care & data entry.
