No matter what I try to read or go to, Firefox crashes repeatedly. I literally cannot use it at all. I keep getting: Gah. Your tab just crashed. We can help! Choose Restore This Tab or Restore All Crashed Tabs to reload the page/pages.

Clicking those options fixes nothing! How do I go back to the previous version, please?

I have recently encountered reproducible failures when attempting to download files or save pages to local storage. The target directory is located on a mounted NTFS file system with the options umask=007, user=root, and group=disk. My Firefox browser is running under a non-root user account that is a member of the disk group. However, I consistently receive the error message: “XXX could not be saved because the source file could not be read.”

I would greatly appreciate anyone's assistance in resolving this issue.

I am using Mozilla as my default web browswer in Unix environment. It is great... except for a particular behavior of the browser window. When I middle click (MB2) the frame of the window, it doesn't go to the background, like all my other windows. Intead it opens a new tab (when I click at the top of the window). This is very annoying becaue I use MB2 /go to background all th etime. Any idea how to change that behavior and make it consistent with my general unix preference? Here is how it looks: see attachment.

Thanks in advance.

When I approved the installation of the latest Foxfire update this morning, I got the message "Couldn't load XPCOM." Another popup message included "error status 0xc000012f." Firefox does not work. Thanks, Joan Karrie

Can someone please help.. My passwords are saving. They auto fill...But before this latest version I had a few sites that I could ciIck on the bookmark and it would just open without having too log in.. I do have clear and delete cookies and history, but in previous versions these were in the exempt list so everything was saved. Would like that to still be in place both in private Firefox and normal.. This version has wiped out a lot of settings I assume I dont want to have to log in and go through check ups..Passwords and user details are there but not auto log in think there exception rule in previous version not sure where that is now

The update to v145 completely changed how background color and highlighting of HTML emails are displayed. It was nicer before. Can someone please share which setting in about:config to change to return to HTML display in previous versions?

Thanks!

One of the things I like most about Firefox is the home page with 'tiles' for my most used websites. Since the last upgrade some of my tiles have the website logos but most do not. Is there a way I can fix this?

Following a restart procedure on Windows 10 today, all my saved Firefox Passwords have now gone! (Firefox 144.0.2 (64-bit))

Can I recover them?

Please note; I will read and review any replies but cannot respond until tomorrow, as am at work now.

Thanks in advance! Andy.

Bank website keeps telling me I need to update my browser. I did update and am currently running 115.30.0esr. What is causing the website to not recognize the update?

I recently bough a new computer and transferred all my data, passwords and bookmarks to it. Each time I opened my mozilla browser I was encouraged to create a profile , but each time I just continued without creating a profile. Finally today I was not given an option to proceed without creating a profile so I did. But now all my passwords and bookmarks have disappeared. When I try to find them I am advised to load my previous profile but this is not an option the only profile I have is the one I just created with the missing data. Can you please tell me where the appropiate files are stored and how can I recover them. Thanks

The tab group suggestion feature is unavailable for me, even though I am on Firefox 145.0 (64-Bit on Windows 11 Pro 25H2). I tried using guides like [one from mozilla] https://www.askvg.com/enable-or-disable-new-ai-powered-smart-tab-groups-in-firefox/ this external about:config editing guide.

The latter does changes to the about:config. A screenshot of my settings, my config, and my Add-ons is attached.

I do not know what is wrong.

Hi there I have the problem that my firefox can save any file or download on my other drives since they arent event show as an option. I did a little research and read that by default in linux for security reason was unable to, but asking in the official forum of my distro (cachyos), they can save thing in other drives with no problems.

So i wanted to know why i dont?, my firefox installation is native at installing the dristro and having all perimission but it cant see my drives except the one is installed to (and where my OS is).

The only thing different i actually do is the folder where my current user info is saved, i moved the files from my user but with the files i had from my old windows session to impor my saved sites, favorites, etc.

Can you help me to be able to save files or images on my other drives?, thank you for time.

When i try to fullscreen youtube, there is a transparent border on the left and top of the window that will not go away normally. The only temporary fix I found was pressing win+d twice to get rid of it. This seems to be a reoccurring issue as this only happens on firefox and nothing else. This reddit post helped me. https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/13eguvp/please_help_transparent_video_border_when_in/

Please let me know how to fix this permanently. I have also tried firefox safe mode and that curiously didnt have borders but even when i went out of safe mode and disabled all my extensions and cleared my cache, it didnt work.
