I can't access the Firefox password manager on my desktop Windows 10 PC. See screen shot #1 from attempt. Further investigation shows a failed update which seems to correspond to the date the access problem started per screenshot #2. Passwords are available on my IOS Phone as normal.

What should I do to restore PW access?

Thanks, Craig Lamison

Recently several sites, including Zoom.us and Genesis.com, no longer work in Firefox on my PC running Windows 11. For example, when I log into Zoom spinning wheel indicating the system is working keeps spinning and never lets me enter my password. Yet if I use Edge everything works as it should. I really want to be able to keep using Firefox as my default browser.

I have really liked using the "refresh" button with my Firefox browser. The "refresh" button has disappeared from one of my two Dell PC's (I use Windows Eleven, and my Dell PC's have solid state drive). I know there are two other "help" buttons ("troubleshoot mode" and "clear startup cache"). The "refresh" button has really helped me to keep my Firefox browser working properly with my two Dell PC's. Thank you for any comments you might have about this.

Does PQC algorithm for session key sharing supported by Firefox ?

Hello everyone,

I am using Firefox latest release (eg 145.0.1).

At https://developers.cloudflare.com/ssl/post-quantum-cryptography/pqc-support/ , it seems that X25519MLKEM768 is supported since Firefox 132. Do you confirm ?

I ask this question because when I am connecting to https://pq.cloudflareresearch.com/ and activate the network tab before reaching this URL, and looked at the security tab on the right bottom panel, as you can see in the screenshot attached, in the Exchange group keys, I see x25519 and not x25519mlkem768 meaning that Firefox is not PQC ready for key establishment :-(

Best Regards.

Hello all...

This is driving me crazy. I have the latest version Firefox 145 installed, however, this morning I discovered that while trying to log in to various banks for my credit cards, I've been getting "inability to login" messages, or a blank page comes up. Even when I try to change passwords (which I really didn't need to do), I keep getting denied.

I cleared all of my cache, but that does no good whatsoever. This the worst set of bugs with Firefox that I've ever experienced.

Yet, when I use Microsoft Edge to log into all of those sites, there are NO issues whatsoever.

What gives here - what went wrong?

Recently returned to Firefox from a detour in Chrome. One thing that Alphabet was doing that I was satisfied with was their password manager. It suggested complex passwords. Is there a similar feature in Firefox?

I recently upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11. I was under the impression that my bookmarks would be saved to my Mozilla account and I could then log in on the new computer and the bookmarks would come over also. Is this accurate or will I have to go about recovering my bookmarks a different way?

As of now when I log into Mozilla I get a message at the top saying "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. I clicked Learn more and tried the troubleshooting options, but no luck in fixing the message or issue. Thanks for your help.

I updated Firefox to 145.0 this morning, and after Firefox had restarted, it had lost all bookmarks and the bookmarks toolbar. I have spent all day following links to correct the problem and got nowhere. I have restarted Windows and Firefox countless times - no change. I've even tried reinstalling Firefox over the existing version. If I go to bookmarks > manage bookmarks > restore and backup, sometimes that will load, others not. When it does load, it fails to find a file to restore from. 10 years of bookmarks, links & research vanished.

Can someone please provide a solution (preferably in Layman's terms) to this??

I've been using "unload tab" feature in the right click menu a lot, because my device is slow and I like to keep tabs open. (Thank you so much for adding it!) I love that it makes tabs that I unload manually have grey icons, this is super helpful for keeping track of which tabs are processing and which aren't Can you change it or make a setting so that tabs that are not loaded yet (tabs opened by by the "restore tabs when reopening browser" setting for example) are also grey? It would help me keep track of which tabs are loaded and when. In other words, right now it's possible for a tab to have a color icon when it's not loaded, and I want to make that impossible, so I can keep track better.
