I recently restarted my computer, and when I started my computer, the text on all my apps was tiny. The text is also tiny in the search bar and book marks in firefox as well. I have restarted my computer several times, and the issue with desktop apps seems to have fixed itself. The firefox issue has not.

The text in the tab, the search bar, and the bookmark name is all tiny and I can barely read it. Everything else is normal and this is not a problem with other browsers. I have tried switching the text size in firefox settings, I have changed the text size in windows display settings, and I have even tried changing the overall size of the browser through "about:config" and changing the "layout.css.devPixelsPerPx" to a higher number, but nothing works.

I can use the app just fine, but I cannot read the text in the tab, search bar, or bookmark.

If i open firefox and then open a new window or tab in firefox with the same adress, it will close it down. Why would anyone want that function? The reason i open the second tab our window is because i want them open simultaneously of course. Damn that was one annoying feature, it even changes window if i have multiple tabs open and one tab i the same as in the other window, jesus.

Hello!

I have a problem with FF browser on my PC for quite some time. It seems that every time I try searching for anything at all, there always appear a "google location bar", which obstructs the first search result completely - more in the attachment.

I've tried turning off all of the add-ons I have, tried searching for it in console, tried blocking it - didn't help.

It doesn't show in other browsers.

I'm an author, publishing through KDP since 2022. As a UK resident, I publish initially on amazon.co.uk, after which Amazon sends the ebooks and print books to amazon.com and so forth. However, when I view the books on the US site, they are shown as 'currently unavailable.' This only happens in Firefox. I also use Chrome now and again, and it's fine there. The books clearly are available, because US readers buy them. But clearly I don't want to risk any US Firefox readers thinking they're unavailable, if they have the same problem that I'm having. I raised this with Amazon a while ago, but they said it was nothing to do with them, and must be an issue with my browser. I've recently published the third book in a series, and it's just the same. Any suggestions?

Starting last night, every time I try to open a page/website in Firefox the page times out and an hourglass symbol and the words "New Tab" appear in the tab. In addition, clicking on one of my bookmarks doesn't work either and nothing happens in that case. Any ideas?

Firefox full screen flakiness

The first image speaks for itself. When I want to change the way this setting is set in a Facebook group, when Firefox is full screen, the associated dialog is so placed and/or sized on the screen that it is partially truncated on the left by the left side of the display. I just checked in MS Edge and it displays normally there with full screen display. It displays normally in Firefox when I Restore Down. So this one at least does seem to be specific to Firefox.

I have a second full screen display issue that may be related, but this one isn't just Firefox; Ms Edge also shows it, and other applications also behave similarly: the right hand scroll bar disappears in full screen (as does the applicaion menu control)! I had some trouble taking a pair of images to illustrate this, using Snipping Tool. The second image, when Firefox is set to restore Down, shows the scroll bar and application menu control, which is what I see. The third image was more tricky to take because the first time I tried, the screen capture included a scroll bar and application menu control even though they were not visible on screen. I had to redo it and be very careful not to let the right hand side of the selection drift off the right hand side of the display.

It seems like the full screen display is just a little "larger" than the physical display. I have tried one or two other screen resolution settings and that has not helped. My best guess is that it's a monitor settings problem, but I've also fiddled with the monitor settings, again with no success. And even if a monitor setting explains the pervasive right hand side issue, it doesn't explain the Facebook dialogue issue, which does appear to be Firefox-specific.

So my current workaround is just not to have anything full screen :(

How do I stop it from appearing please? It's the address bar.. field. I don't know what to call it, english is not my native language. I just want it to remain small and static like it always did. Now it becomes a huge field that takes up too much space and blocks my vision and I just want it to disappear.

I wish Firefox would stop changing stuff like this.

Is it possible to click individual segments of an URL in the address bar to navigate there directly (without manually selecting and deleting the tail)? It's a convenient way to reach upper layers of a website.

For example Vivaldi implements it via Ctrl+<Mouseover/click> (see attached screen capture)

Is there an option or addon to enable this? Thanks in advance
