Firefox Support Forum

I started receiving a message that "Firefox is already running, but it is not responding...". Tried Task Manager to "End Processes" - Didn't work (still getting the same message on start up). Tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox - Didn't work (Getting the same message when I attempt to reinstall. About to give up and go with another browser. Can someone please tell me how to get rid of this message and reinstall and start Firefox? I would REALLY rather use Firefox. Thank you!

Norton just told me that Firefox downloader downloaded bugs in both their updates and patches! My computer HAD started having problems a few days ago that I noticed (hanging up on the lock screen, not letting me sign in). Then Norton found the bugs. Said they were new but high risk. What's going on???

I'm trying to use firefox on linux (no gui). I must use microsoft SSO to login our website. So i copied the profile (the folder Mozilla) from windows to linux. It was good to login automatically and implicitly on linux (CentOS6). But after 2-4 hours, it couldn't login any more. I have to login manually on windows again, and then copy the file webappsstore.sqlite to the profile folder on linux. How can I make it can login on linux for a long time without copying a new webappsstore.sqlite to linux?

Hi, I have created a thunderbird extension by using the following docs, https://thunderbird-webextensions.readthedocs.io/en/68/cloudFile.html Now, this extension is working fine with debug mode. But while publishing this extension I am receiving warnings like the attached image. How can I solve these warnings?

I have quite a few tabs open in Firefox on an old iMac that I keep open for research purposes. I do this instead of bookmark to save having to reopen them every time. When I migrate the old iMac to a new one, will Firefox remember those tabs and reopen them upon launch?

I have 8 for various reasons.New PC only opens up for my profile no profile manager.A geek friend told me once how to go to the file and add a cpl letters on to it to restore all the old profiles and the manager but forgot how.

2020-09-10 - I have had issues with bookmark favicons not working for about 3 or 4 years, completely installing and uninstalling fire-fox many, many times, using different computers, always the latest version of Windows 10, using fire-fox sync, using 3rd party bookmark managers -

Often when importing bookmarks, there is no favicon, and I need to open every bookmark to load the favicon

Can you please allow favicons to work normally in fire-fox?

Nice [expletive] job MZ lost all my damn book marks, lost all my damn passwords and lost any and all thought of you being a god damn good browser. [profanity] you're update sucks and I want nothing to do with you (2009-2020)
