Hopefully this may reach Mozilla Connect maintainers/developers. After posting a topic or a comment in Mozilla Connect, I struggled to find it. Somehow I found out there is a page "My Unmoderated Items", which is not referenced from my account, from main menu or anywhere reachable. Once you know the link or leave it open, it looks fine, but finding the page again is a real struggle.

Would you please add "https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/premod/moderationitemspage/tab/unmoderated:idea" to all relevant menus so that the user can find it easily?

Hi, Since the last update for Mozilla on the laptop (updated on 6/Oct/2025 - version 143.0.4 (64-bit)), all the shortcuts to websites in Firefox homepage I had pinned have disappeared. Also I can't add new shortcuts. I already have shortcuts enabled in Settings>Home>Firefox Home Content>Shortcuts.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Kind regards.

I have Firefox installed on three Windows Desktop Computers. On one, I just cannot delete Bookmarks, no matter what suggestions I try. Verify Integrity of the database produced no results. I do not, for a variety of reasons, sync bookmarks (or anything else) between the three installations. Experienced user that has spent far too long on what should be a simple issue.

Dear Helper,

since the newest Firefox update, i got today (16.09.25), the audible cloudplayer doesnt work anymore, meaning it wont load the audiobook! I emptied the cache, but nothing changed. I tried the audible cloudplayer with Windows Edge and it works fine, so it is a Firefox specific problem. I granted all websides access to audio and media automatic replay, nothing changed. The cloudplayer doesnt work! So my question is: What else is interfering in Firefox with the loading of the player? Thank you so much in advance for your help :) Yours sincerely David

I'm not able to uninstall PWA apps created in Firefox 143.0.1 using Windows 11 usual uninstalling procedure. If i click "uninstall" in Windows Start Menu the app remains installed. PWA apps created with Firefox do not show on Windows 11 installed apps list so I cannot uninstall them. I haven't found any guide on the web on how to uninstall PWA created from Firefox. So, how can I effectively uninstall those PWA apps? Thank you in advance for your kind answer. Regards.

I opened Firefox this morning and all of my pinned shortcuts have disappeared. Shortcuts are enabled in the settings. I checked the browser.newtabpage.pinned pref on the about:config and all of my pinned shortcuts are still there, but they're not appearing on the actual page itself. Are there any other settings that I'm not aware of?

firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to sync.contextualadv.com. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since websites must renew their certificates with a certification authority to stay current, and outdated security certificates represent a risk. Add to exceptions

Firefox Context Menu - Unwanted Navigation Images are Showing Again

Hi All,

I was using the following CSS to hide the navigation images and show only text labels on the context menu for the Back, Forward, Reload and Bookmark Page menu options...

/* Content Area Context Menu - Navigation Vertical Text */
#context-navigation,
#context-navigation > menuitem{
  flex-direction: column !important;
}
/* hide images */
#context-back image, #context-forward image,
#context-reload image, #context-stop image,
#context-bookmarkpage image{
   display: none !important;
}
/* show text labels */
#context-back:after, #context-forward:after,
#context-reload:after, #context-stop:after,
#context-bookmarkpage:after{
   content: attr(aria-label) !important;
   margin-inline-start: -19px !important; /* this pushes navigation text items to left, aligned with other menu items below */
}


It worked up until a couple of versions ago, but something has changed, and my CSS is now broken, and those navigation icons are back.

My context menu now looks like the attached image below.

Any help with showing only text labels on this menu is appreciated.

Thanks.

PROBLEM: Pinned tabs are useful, but if I have more than one Firefox window open and I close them in the wrong order, the next time I open Firefox, my pinned tabs are gone and I have to pin them again.

SOLUTION: Pinned tabs should be able to be permanent so that they will re-open no matter which Firefox window is closed first. Is there a way to make this work?

I have Privacy & Security set to Strict with Cookies and Site Data deleted when the browser is closed with only 3 sites in the exclusion tab. I also use a VPN to assist with masking and for connections to defined systems and as part of that I will randomly set it to different countries 'because I can'.

I was looking at the website for the current Rugby World Cup (https://www.rugbyworldcup.com) but it was showing the wrong times for the matches. A little digging showed it had remembered my location from some point last week when the VPN was active and set to Iceland.

There is nothing I can find in my browser settings to permit this and I would appreciate pointers to check further since one of the reasons I have set the higher level of restrictions in my browser is to stop this kind of activity from websites.

Is there a way to have Firefox start with all, or all but the first tab unloaded?

My Firefox starts with about 100 tabs open and many of these now have ads running which makes Firefox very slow. It seems to take ages and ages for all the tabs to load.

Maybe if all the tabs were unloaded when I start Firefox it would be quicker to get up and running??

I'm running Windows 11 on a desktop with an i5 CPU and 32 GB of RAM.

Any help much appreciated.

With Firefox 144, there is unasked for/unwanted AI introduced. How do I ensure that all AI is completely disabled in my browser? I found a link describing some settings, but want to confirm this will disable ALL AI in the browser. I don't want it, don't trust the privacy/security holes yet to be found and would prefer it was not included in Firefox to begin with. The list I've found is:

  • user_pref("browser.ml.chat.enabled", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.chat.menu", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.chat.page", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.chat.shortcuts", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.chat.sidebar", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.enable", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.linkPreview.optin", false);
  • user_pref("browser.ml.modelHubRootUrl", "");

Will this do it? What about:

browser.ml.chat.nimbus

Do I need to clear that field to ensure I don't get some auto opt-in in the future as more and more of this "stuff" is put into the browser?

Why not leave Firefox as a security/privacy conscious browser and put out a separate AI browser (FirefoxML?) for those that are not as concerned. How does Mozilla ensure that no information is leaked through AI from sessions for professionals that must protect physician/patient, attorney/client information or other legally confidential information?

Hi, I rebooted Firefox today because a website was frozen, and when it came back, it was asking for a troubleshoot or just continue, and I don't know exactly what that meant, but when I clicked on refresh, everything was changed, including the theme. And then when I tried to restore the theme back to the original it said, add-ons are disabled by safety, and I don't know what that means, and it's not explaining how to undo it. And now everything looks different and I'm not happy with it, and it's not really letting me add any other themes, and if I add them, they don't seem to fully load, the page still looks all white
