Firefox local development "CORS request not http"

As of update to v68 I get errors like these: Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at file:///D:/website/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff?v=4.2.0. (Reason: CORS request not http).

What the heck is this? Why did silly mozila messed up the development of local files? How can I bypass that WITHOUT ALTERING my code? It broke fontawesome functionality! Very stupid!

I have an embedded font on my website that I use for the header, and it displays fine. I have a development copy of the website on my hard disk, and that displayed fine too until Firefox 68.0; but now it uses the second font in my list, instead of the first.

So: some bug in the code of the copy on my disk, I thought. But when I open it in Safari, Chrome or Brave, it displays correctly.

The W3C CSS validation service finds no error in the code.

I'm stumped. Any ideas?

Once again, Firefox is making multiple processes in the task manager. I've already set both browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 and browser.tabs.remote.autostart to false, yet I still have multiple processes anyway, and setting the content process limit to 1 doesn't seem to do anything. I'm using Firefox version 68.0 and running Window 7.

Guys after latest update I can't change fully my user interface language. I changed language setting to English everywhere, and part of it is still in Estonian ( I live in Estonia, that's why for some reason mozila gave me headache and changed user interface to estonian).

Check screenshot, English is set as main language and menu is still in estonian. I even reinstalled ENGLISH version of firefox, but it didn't help me, still estonian menus. Spend 2 hours trying to solve this issue. Sry for crying, but so often after updates things like this happen.

Please help me change language to English :)

P.S. I can't delete my profile in firefox, and completelly reinstall it, cos I need my setting.

Thanks in advance and have a nice day!

Pop-ups should aready be disabled. I've gone into about:config and tried all the settings that seem to be relevent.

This is about annoying enough to start shopping for other browsers.

I just absolutely HATE this latest version. Even though I hate, hate, hate signing in to use any browser, I made an account with the old version that had all of my doggone book marks. Finally it updated without my even saying yes, and even when I sign in they are gone. I do NOT want to have to work so hard to have my bookmarks on a PC. NOT cool, especially when I'm going to be replacing this dinosaur this year and wanted to have my bookmarks available with the new one. TOO MUCH WORK to sync when I prefer incognito. BOO!

One of the reasons I prefer Firefox to Chrome is that when I right-click on a link, I can open the link in a new tab.

I usually read news in Chrome because, on some sites, I open 20 new tabs without moving from the main news page. I can then move to the tabs, read one, close it, move to the next, etc.

I would like to move my news reading to Firefox, but I would like to be able to choose whether (or not) to open a new tab at the time the tab is being opened.

Is this possible?

Hello, yesterday I tried to install an update on my computer that caused the computer to shut down. When the computer restarted my settings in firefox had changed (although I don't think Firefox updated or anything). My search engine options are now just Bing, Amazon, and Ebay. I know how to add more search engines. I went to the preferences page->search-> find more search engines. But when the list of available search engines comes up, google is missing. There's search google images, google translate, every other country's google you can imagine, but default US Google is not there. Where did it go? Why can't I find it?

With 68.0, I see that in order to manually sync, I now have to hit the three-bar menu button at upper right, THEN select my account, THEN do Sync Now. The second step used to not be required. Minor inconvenience. Why was this done?

Also, to what extent is sync automatic? How do I set it up to be automatic. If it is automatic, when exactly is it done? Is it done continuously, or just when I exit FF?

New certificates should be retrieved for these 2 CA, or they should be deleted from the certdata.txt as they are no longer valid.
