Firefox Community Forum

I have bookmarks for the application Obsidian, which uses the obsidian:// protocol, registered in Windows. I type the bookmark keyword, it opens the protocol, and asks to confirm whether I not want to open it.

While I wish I could get rid of the entire dialog, I understand that's a security risk, and I understand that the manual delay is ALSO a security detail (to prevent errant or intentional mis-clicks by malicious websites), I want to disable it.

I'm aware there's a lot of hidden configuration options, but I can't even find the name of what this dialog is called. Every search I have for it yields unrelated results. "Open with" is the only idea I have now, so maybe I should start searching for what the integration or protocol is called within Windows. Maybe that'll put me on the right track.

So, can I disable OR 'configure the confirmation dialog, either altogether OR the delay?

I use the collections on mobile like bookmarks bx they're not hidden behind 15 menus I need to merge a couple that got separated and are takin up space but there s like 300 tabs and im not selecting them all at once how do I select all to add to a collection or how do I paste a copied tabs list to a collection

When I have Firefox open and go into a few websites, the pages start to mess up. What I see gets weird characters. Started happening maybe in Feb of 2025. Does it on multiple websites. I have to close out and shut down firefox and go back in before it is fixed. It makes it very hard to work when I have to do this all day. It started sporadically and now is multiple times a day. After being open and used for a few hours it starts to mess up. I have multiple tabs I have open and using them at the same time for work throughout the day. I have done this for years.

Browser pages: Private pages. and non Private pages How do I setup my browser pages from ONLY.... PRIVATE back to NON-PRIVATE pages and/or switch to one type, then back to the other normal pages?

Why am i getting the following msg. GAH. Your Tab Just Crashed.

This just started yesterday. Not sure why

Win 10

I have set E:\ as my default download location. However in some cases Firefox does not respect my choice and silently downloads stuff to C:\Users\Name\Downloads. I really hate this. One example, a pdf downloaded from here https://scribd.vpdfs.com/. Please fix it. Thx.

Good evening

Apologies for any apparent bluntness, but

1) What is a Fire Window? 2) How/where do I access one? and 3) How do I use it?

My utmost thanks in advance!

Regards,

I no longer see search suggestions when I start typing in the search bar. I still have "show search suggestions" checked in Settings, Search.

I should also ask: I don't remember how I enabled the old search bar, to the right of the address bar, mostly because I'm used to it. I don't see a box for it in Settings. What if I wanted to remove it? What if I then wanted it back?

Well, ok, one more. Also in Settings, Search, I see a drop-down list from which to choose my search engine, but no space to add a new one. Where's that? I've seen instructions to navigate to another search engine, but that can't be the way to do it. I normally wouldn't navigate to a search engine's page before searching.

Firefox is not working with Shopify. I have tried the following troubleshooting steps and I do see:

1. Update Firefox to the Latest Version Go to Menu (≡) > Help > About Firefox. This will automatically check for updates. Regular updates ensure compatibility with modern web apps like Shopify. 2. Clear Cache, Cookies, and Site Data Go to Menu (≡) > Settings > Privacy & Security. Under Cookies and Site Data, click Manage Data. Search for "Shopify" to delete only Shopify-related data, or use Clear Data to remove all cached data, which can resolve display issues in Admin. 3. Run Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode (Enhanced Safe Mode) Firefox 2024 includes a robust Troubleshoot Mode that disables extensions, custom settings, and themes, giving a clean environment. Go to Menu (≡) > Help > Troubleshoot Mode. Choose Restart in Troubleshoot Mode, then Open when prompted. If Shopify Admin works in this mode, an extension or setting is likely causing the issue. 4. Check for Incompatible Extensions and Privacy Add-ons Go to Menu (≡) > Add-ons and Themes > Extensions. Disable extensions, especially ad blockers, VPNs, and script blockers, which may conflict with Shopify's dynamic elements. Reload Shopify Admin after disabling each extension to pinpoint any issues. 5. Disable Enhanced Tracking Protection for Shopify Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection may block essential cookies and scripts used by Shopify. Open Shopify Admin, click the shield icon next to the address bar, and select Turn off Enhanced Tracking Protection for This Site. 6. Disable Hardware Acceleration Some display issues stem from hardware acceleration conflicts. Go to Menu (≡) > Settings > General > Performance. Uncheck Use hardware acceleration when available and restart Firefox. 7. Use Firefox’s DevTools to Diagnose Errors Open Menu (≡) > Web Developer > Web Console or press Ctrl + Shift + K. Reload Shopify Admin to see if any errors or blocked elements are logged, which can provide insight into potential conflicts or missing resources. 8. Verify Network Security and Check Proxy/VPN Settings If your network includes a firewall or proxy, ensure that it allows secure access to all Shopify domains. Disable VPNs temporarily to check if they’re impacting Shopify Admin performance.

Running Firefox 133.0.3 on Windows 10 22H2

The last week or so, when I try to download my photos from iCloud, Firefox blocks the download, saying it contains a virus or malware. Of course it does not - it's a zip file of screenshots! Running a scan on the folder once unzipped confirms there is nothing malicious in it. Can you fix that please?

I'm using linux mint up to date 68.0.52, Firefox version 134.0.2 (64 bits) often when I open a local file, having the Panel process browse consola open, I get the the error: TypeError: this.toolbarButtons is undefined toolbox.js:4265:5 So I'm unable to see the web developer toolbar and just see a blank section on the lower part of my screen. I think it's a bug, or Am I doing something wrong? Best regards: Alejandro.
