Firefox Community Forum

Things like, "set firefox as your default browser" and "open firefox when you start your computer?".

I don't want pop-ups from ANYBODY, but especially not from the browser. It defeats the whole purpose of blocking pop-ups if the browser itself is interrupting me with garbage I dont need.

How do I turn these off? There don't appear to be any settings, and every google search brings up disabling pop-ups for every other site.

Why do I need to post my question on a forum and wait for some random internet user to answer. Why can I not ask a question of the company when their product is not functioning properly? This is really really disappointing.

Bonjour en voulant aller sur un site connu et auxquels je vais j'ai eut ce message je n'ai rien modifié sur mon ordi d’où cela viens t-il et surtout comment y remédier. Merci "Pourquoi ce blocage ? Quelque chose dans le comportement du navigateur nous a intrigué.

Diverses possibilités:

   vous surfez et cliquez à une vitesse surhumaine
   quelque chose bloque le fonctionnement de javascript sur votre ordinateur
   un robot est sur le même réseau  que vous

DAM SERVER ERROR! Every thing I wrote here is now GONE! Is it possible to make sidebar & drop down list LETTERS LARGER? The're tiny, too small to see without he magnifyer. Shrinking the page has no effect on the sidebar or the drop downs which stay tiny I cannot see tiny letters, I have to use the magnifier to see them & that is very awkward.

So I had logged into this Firefox account, but while I was, I forgot my password. I needed to enter the correct code from the email, but I lost the recovery key; I needed to enter in the 2FA code from my phone, then I could now change the password. When I logged in, boom, bookmarks gone. Passwords gone, and browsing history gone. I was waiting for it all to sync, but it had probably synced the deletion of everything possibly. I have no idea what happened, but I do not believe my account was compromised, because I did not get any emails about any new logins. If it is encrypted, how can I decrypt it so I can get my stuff back? Thanks.

I am using tab groups and suddenly they all disappeared. There is no hint or trace of this function, not even in the tab pulldown menue. I checked the internet, I restartet Firefox several times, I restarted my notebook (Windows 11), I checked about:config (tab groups are enabled). I even reinstalled firefox - it seems like tab groups never have existed. What might have happend - and how could I get that feature back?

Thank you in advance Wolf

Nach dem Update vom Oktober kann Firefox nicht mehr auf Deutsch angezeigt werden. Die Umstellung auf Deutsch in den Einstellungen haben keine Wirkung. Was ist zu tun?

Hello,

Today I updated to Firefox 143.0.3. When done (most of?) my add-ons were gone, in particular all my add blockers, facebook container, etc. Also, my search engine defaulted to Google (yikes!)from Duck Duck etc. I am very specific about trying to block all ads, trackers, etc and avoiding all Google products. Other things stayed the same like cookies preferences.

Is this done by design? Is there a file somewhere that still has all my add-on info, that I can restore.

I really would give up on browsing if I am forced to see ads all the time.

Thank you! Petrus Martens

My Firefox browser just updated to version 143.0.1. When the browser reopened, there was an instructional page that opened in a new tab describing the Unload Tab function. I followed the instructions, right-clicked on the tab, the drop down menu appeared, but there wasn't an Unload Tab option. However, there was a Reload Tab option shown.

How do I resolve this? I'm using a macOS 15.6.1.

I have been a Firefox user for many, many years. I started getting the Subject message: "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional" error message this evening. I started to "Fix" this error based on the Mozilla Support page. Actually, I first tried restarting my computer and that didn't correct the problem. I then noticed I could "sign off" Firefox which I thought I'd do and sign back in. I didn't notice until after the fact that my Firefox account was tied to a very old email address I once used that is no longer active "commish3@bellsouth.net". When I tried signing back into Firefox using that old email account, it said a security code would be sent to that old email address. Problem is I no longer have access to that email account.

1) Is there a way I can sign back in and have a security code sent to my current email address: tad3.dickinson@gmail.com ?

2) Can you assist with restoring my bookmarks. Again, years of building these bookmarks that I'm very dependent on.

Thanks, Tad Dickinson

Yet again Mozilla have decided that yellow folder icons are not needed and have amended the code so user chrome files no longer work. Is there a new way to return the folder icons to yellow or are we stuck with the black icons with a white frame?

I am almost BLIND, "dark reader" extension that I paid for but cannot activate is BLOCKING important functions like the CAM I need to read with. I have contacted him many times, he just cruelly plays with me. he just keeps telling me over & over & over to do DO what is impossible to do because what I need is NOT THERE!. I am done with him. I will have to PAY A CAB to drive me & my crippled computer to a computer tec. in the hope they can clean up his mess.
