I saw bunch of threads which suggest to enable "ctrl+tab cycles through tabs in recently used order". It does what I need, but in previous versions I used to press only ctrl+tab. While I was holding ctrl I could iterate over tabs via tab key. After releasing ctrl selected tab was chosen

It differs with current behavior where you press ctrl+tab and after releasing all keys pop up with tabs is still be viewed and you need manual action with space/enter/mouse click to open selected tab

Is there any way to use only ctrl+tab without any manual actions required like it was back in the days where after releasing the control key selected tab is opened?

getting unwanted notifications from d35nd28hubcc73d4frm0.spanchaintech claims its from Mozilla Firefox telling me Trojan Virus detected! System alert! McAfee license expired! and tries to direct me to a site taking payment to upgrade my McAfee account My McAfee account has not expired Running a scan reveals no viruses or problems BUT - I can't find how to get rid of the notifications How do I get rid of the notifications?

При попытке авторизоваться на сайте reddit.com сайт выдает ошибку "неверный логин или пароль", но при попытке входа на reddit.com в приватном окне ошибки не возникает и авторизация проходит без проблем, то есть логин и пароль 100% верны.

Было проверено на версии 143 и 142. Так же пробовал заходить из только что установленной версии Firefox без изменения настроек и установки дополнений - никакого положительного результата и все та же ошибка авторизации.

Один раз удалось авторизоваться на сайте в обычном окне браузера, но я предварительно что-то изменил в настройках и к сожалению не запомнил что изменил. И я не помню что сделал после (менял ли настройки, переустанавливал ли браузер), но авторизоваться после того случая больше не удавалось, может настройки ни на что не повлияли. Не понятно с чьей стороны эта проблема: браузера или сайта. В других браузерах (Chrome и Edge) такой проблемы не возникает.

I've tried to install the language pack for english to have swedish and english spelling checked on my computer. I've added it like the discription mentions but it doesn't show as an option when I try to change it.

When searching from the search bar how do I make it to where YouTube doesn't come up as an option for when I'm looking for a video? How do I block YouTube from my search

Hi ..

I have installed 'Stop Auto Reload' extension on my browser, (..aimed at stopping Meta/Facebook from automatically reloading my page whenever they feel like it, or because I opened a link from a post.)

As directed, I have listed that site in the two relevant boxes, in the 'Options' tab to show that anything with 'facebook' in the URL should NOT auto-refresh..

But down the 'Options' page a bit further, is another box that says:

'..Don't stop a tab from auto reloading if it has a URL that starts with one of the following URLs:'

.. & it lists: 'https://www.facebook.com/checkpoint/?next'

Now.. I did NOT insert that... And the app will NOT let me remove it.! I can press shift to get another line or go back, but I cannot highlight & delete or backspace-remove that entry. Its like the extension has been tampered with..??

So Meta is still interfering with my browser when I'm on there, & stalls & reloads whenever it wants to..!!

Any advice gratefully received.. Thank you..

Hello, any best practices for converting Firefox bookmarks once they're exported? The exported_bookmarks.html are an html file which are impossible to edit. Converting so the data for folders, titles and urls can be edited is what's needed.

I tried Vi with some Regex code, however the cleaned file is not so clean.

Is Firefox blocking my access to certain websites? for example www.rt.com I'm able to access using a VPN which suggests Firefox is restricting my access.

when I try to open a particular website, firefox keeps blocking it and says its an error. I cannot open this website. how do i get passed this.

I keep getting what appears to be notification (of news items?) popping up in the lower right hand corner of my screen. Is this a function of Firefox and if so can I disable it?

Q: Homepage and Tabs allows URLs; New Tabs offers only Blank and Firefox Home (Default)

Any way for New Tabs to also have a URL? Why not?

Thanks.

How can I customize recommended stories so that only articles that require a sign-in to be viewed not be shown to me. If I see a story title that looks interesting and I select it and a sign in page immediately pops up (all of which I do not wish to sign up for just to read a short article) then it feels like another privacy grab.

I recently got a new machine and loaded it with Linux Mint 21.3 - Cinnamon, FF 142.0 and Bitwarden Version: 2025.8.2 along with the usual cadre of extensions that I use on every other machine I have.

When I first start Firefox, Bitwarden autofill suggestions does not work, autofill from the "Fill" button in Bitwarden does not work and returns an error. The only thing that works is to individually and manually copy the username, paste it, then copy the password and paste it.

If I log out of Reddit and then try to log back in, the autofill suggestions works and the "Fill" button also works.

This is only on Firefox and only on the fresh start of the app. This does not occur on Chrome and I have not tried (and don't want to try) it on Windows.

Within a minute of starting Firefox up, it loses internet connection and prevents the computer from connecting to anything else. Using Ethernet or Wifi doesn't work. The only thing that corrects it is restarting the computer. List of things we have tried: Troubleshooting Mode in Firefox Removing all addons Uninstalling and Reinstalling Firefox with the latest update Disabling DNS over HTTPS Clearing Firefox's DNS cache Clearing the computer's DNS cache Adding IPv6 to our standard IPv4 connection Rebooting the router Used a new Firefox profile Run a virus scan

This is on Windows 11. There are multiple other computers on the network, with W10 and W11, and none of them are having this issue. I've tried everything I can think of. After losing connection, it still pings 8.8.8.8.. Is there anything else we can try?

after reinstalling the OS, Firefox stopped synchronizing most of the data. Bookmarks were not transferred, and passwords and extensions were transferred less than half

I am noticing what I think is a bug with Google and Firefox Container tabs.

Currently: If I have a non-google site open in a particular container tab (say, LinkedIn.com on a LinkedIn container tab that I've designated as green colored), and then I make another new tab in that same container, and I type in google.com, Firefox automatically switches the tab type from the green LinkedIn container tab type to a colorless no-container tab, and, on top of that, because I am signed in to google in my no-container tab, it signs me in to my account.

Expected: When I open a new tab in a container, and I go to google.com, that the Firefox tab remain in that green container tab type and not switch me to a different tab type where I'm signed in to Google and it's tracking me.

Note: I am not looking for workarounds -- I have already been able to work around it myself. Rather, I am trying to report this as a bug.
