When I open the Firefox browser, it asks me for a password and gives two options: Sign In and Cancel. Normally, if I enter the correct password, I can access the browser. If I press Cancel, access should be denied and the browser should close. However, this is not happening. When I press Cancel, the popup window disappears, but anyone can still use the browser, although they cannot access the saved autofill passwords. Could you help address this bug or issue?

For the last two days, I have been ubable to access settings (X,). When I click the settings cog in th toolbar, thr toolbar grays out. I have also tried to access settings using the Hamburger Menu, clicking on settings, with the same result. I have clicked on Firefox in the menu tab, same result.

I have closed and restarted Firefox, with the same result.

Additionally, I can only close Firefox by force quitting. I don't know if the two are connected.

TIA. Keith

Private Browsing Now Using Selected Add-On Theme; I Want Old Default Dark Theme for Private Browsing

When I updated to Firefox 146 yesterday, the theme I was using disappeared and I ended up making a new theme using Firefox Color. I submitted it to the add-ons list and it has now been accepted, so now I am using it installed from the add-ons. Ever since I started using the new theme, even before installing it from the add-ons menu, my private browsing window is also using that theme. I want private browsing to use the default dark theme. That way I can easily tell if I'm using the private window or the regular Firefox window. However, I can't find a way to change a setting to go back to the dark window for private browsing. I've already checked about:config and browser.theme.dark-private-windows is set to true. I even toggled it to false and then back to true but there is no change. I looked at the settings for the extension Firefox Color, and it is turned off for private windows. I looked at the settings under the theme add-ons, but I don't see a setting there to turn it on or off for private windows. Am I missing something?

I am now on the very latest version, 146.0.1, and my private browsing window is still using the same theme as my regular window.

Thanks to the new CEO of Mozilla moving on with the enshitification of Mozilla Firefox and deciding to shove AI-bloatware down the throat of your users I will cease supporting Mozilla vocally--in person and on social media. The greater portion of your users are not wanting the lackluster addition of any AI into the browser. A "modern AI browser" will become a lesser product overall and will only encourage your users to find a better browser.

And of course there's no "Contact Us" anymore. I don't even expect this to reach a human.

Firefox will become what all the other browsers are: a turd in an already filled sewer.

Since the update of Dec. 9, many of my longtime accounts do not recognize me, and I don't currently have workarounds. I also keep getting nasty messages that I'm in mortal danger because I've lost contact with iCloud. I have a son-in-law and grandchildren with extensive computer expertise who will visiting during the holidays, but during the holidays, but I would much prefer to be partying with them than holding computer repair clinics.

Are there any measures that a complete amateur can take to solve the worst of this Gordian knot?

I have changed operating systems from windows to linux mint. I made sure to sync my profile before uninstalling, but now the profile looks to be empty. there are no saved passwords or bookmarks. This worked when I changed between different windows devices last year, but this time it seems stuck. I will check on a windows device when able, but in the meantime, are there any other ways to troubleshoot this?
