when I'm on sites playing games, i.e. face book, I keep getting this across the bottom of my screen:


https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/

How can I disable it? I can't take a screen shot because if I place my mouse on it, it skips to another place on my screen.

Is there a Firefox setting that automatically clears cookies? When I turned my computer on, it had been cleared of cookies since the last time I had it on a few hours ago, but I didn't do it. No one else here to use the computer but me. I don't want cookies cleared automatically. How do I change it back to manual? I use Firefox Browser 120.0

thank you

I have been receiving the following error code 'PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR' on several website on my Firefox browser. Sometime, not all the time, I get the same error message while trying to use YouTube, while other times the site loads but says that I am offline and no internet connection. I have done all of the fixes that they say to use online and nothing seems to work. YouTube will occasionally work but none of the thumbnails will show up. Then there are other site that work fine.

Recently, I keep getting unnecessary security alerts - Any idea why? I have use https only disabled.

I could be with skytune's certificate. I have done everything I can to bypass these errors.

The Disable Protection For Now option seems to be unavailable if the latest Firefox.

There are no controls shown on YouTube unless i either hide the taskbar or scroll down both of which is a nuisance.

I want to add the Bookmarks to my Browser page. The schematic says I need to press the Toolbar button, but on my latest version of Firefox there is no Toolbar button. Then I have another problem with your instructions. I had to Download something called Filelink. It directed me the Preference section on my menu under More Tools. Accept there is no such thing on my version of Firefox. I have to send a video of about 54 seconds to someone via Thunderbird email, so need to know how I'm going to do it.

hi Team,

We are working on xxx organization and for one of our core applications experienced suspicious activity since November 22, 2023, while users leveraging Firefox browser version 119.0 where customer made multiple attempts to perform sequence of flow and got dropped. Around 99% of our customer got dropped ever since Nov 22. We are not sure if its due browser or any other suspicious issue.

however, we would like to understand from your other customer experience perspective, have we encountered any bad user experience using Firefox browser version 119.0 / or do we have any bug encountered and recently had a fix? 

2. Another question, If in case was a fix for Firefox version 119.0 will the customer browser automatically gets updated ?

It would be great if you can help us to share these details so that we can investigate further.

I recently updated to FF 119.0.1. I am finding that URL completion in the address bar is kind of random. In FF 118 and earlier, URLs were completed predictably, and it was pretty clear that they were based on a) bookmarks and b) frequency of use. Now, it seems like the frequency info is lost every time I restart FF. In that case, I might expect that the URL offered would be from the oldest bookmark or maybe the first in alphabetical order or something predictable, but it isn't. It seems to me to be random, and it is very annoying.

Is this a new bug, or is there perhaps a new setting that I can change to stop the madness?

For relevant settings, I have:

 - Provide search suggestion: checked
 - When using address bar, suggest: browsing history and bookmarks are checked, nothing else
 - I'm using Custom History settings: Remember browsing and download history is checked, Clear history when Firefox closes is checked. 

I have used these settings for years in previous versions of FF, and there hasn't been a problem until now.

Thanks!

My Simple Tab Groups disappeared after one of the recent Firefox updates. This has happened before. Now, after considerable time rebuilding my simple tab groups, when I get a notification that a new version of Firefox is available, I dismiss it. I am afraid of losing them again.

Have you heard this before? Has the issue been addressed? Is it fixed? Is it safe to update without losing the tab groups? Is there a way to back them up and restore them later if they crash?

So, I had three windows open in private mode, then the (stupid) software decides to crash (or rather, restart automatically for an update) and I lose all those tabs from those windows (ALTHOUGH NOT MY CHOICE, OR FAULT) then several search results say install PrivateBrowsingHistoryRecovery add on, however the links go nowhere. Surely Mos FuryInducingF_x don't prevent the installation of an add on that might actually make their software better, useful?

Appreciate any advice.

Hi, i'm a new firefox user and I've looked online for the last hour looking for a fix, but nothing. I have 2 monitors and when I click from one to the other or alt + tab, all my tabs become darkened, from white to having faded / being much darker, I'd want to not have that, is there a way?


Example of not darked darkened / faded tabs / darkened:

The netflix, giazo, imdb and youtube tab is not darkened. (not alt tabbed or clicked on second monitor). The other one is darkened, alt tabbed, clicked on second monitor.

I also posted on reddit, since i can't add more pictures, for better understanding, I will share here. Thank you.
