I can not access my Outlook/Hotmail account in FireFox. I get a plank page. I have never had this problem before. I have no problem loading it in other browsers. Did something change? How do I correct this problem?

Evil Corp (aka Microsoft) updated my Windows 11 PC from 24H2 to 25H2 and now I cannot access quite a few websites (i.e. Amazon, Bank!, etc.) and some take a long time to load (surprisingly, my Firefox Home page...Google...also takes a while to load) . I searched the internet and found many so called fixes and most are very complicated and many contradict others. A lot of them say to disable DNS and reset network stack (using the command prompt) which I do not know how to do even though I worked in the tech business for 40 yrs (mainly data networking)...I retired 20 yrs ago...so I'm old...so I'm not as savvy with computers as I used to be. I tried changing a few Firefox settings, but nothing worked, so I changed them back to the original settings that worked before the update. If someone could give me detailed (and hopefully simple) instructions to resolve this issue, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm am in a bind, so a timely response would be great. Thanks so much, Steve

I opened a profile that I had just used recently to a blank tab bar. I closed it and the sessionstore-backup folder did not have a recent backup, The most recent about a week old.

Just for testing, I tried to restore with one of the upgrade.jsonlz4 file, about 2 weeks old, but it also had no session. I then restored one that was 2 months old. That one had a session

Now, Firefox no longer generates the upgrade.jsonlz4 files

All my bookmarks and history were erased when Focus was (automatically) installed. Same with passwords generated by Firefox. How do I get all this back? It should be in my original profile, but that seems to be gone, too.

I have two bank accounts. Both have been hacked and both banks traced it back to digital on line banking. they both claim that somehow hackers are getting to my personal info thru my computer. I do not use the phone of banking...and Firefox is and has been for a long time my default browser. Can hackers get my info from Firefox?

Greetings.

Several times today I have had messages not sent because of this error message: "Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue". I am sending political messages and am concerned that Mozilla is blocking me. I have sent hundreds of similar messages over the years with no problem.

What's up now?

Thank you. Sincerely, Gail Forrest

I'm using the latest version of Firefox. A website I visit a lot - https://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew - uses the Disqus system in its comment section. The problem is that no comments at all show up when viewed in Firefox, I have to switch to Safari just to read and engage with the comment forum. Why is this happening? Any ideas? Thanks.

Why does Firefox, AND ONLY FIREFOX 145.02 fail to load ANY AND ALL websites after Windows 11 pro x64 startup? I have to close Firefox, restart it, then close and restart it at least 3 times before websites will load fully. AND IT IS NOT A WINDOWS 11 PRO x64 issue.

Thanks, as always, I appreciate any help,

I am trying to log into a "http" website forum, of which I am a member and I am unable to do so, I think due to my Mozilla and or DuckDuckGo "Settings". If at all possible, I would like to reset my browser settings, so that I am able to rejoin this forum. A step by step reply would be much appreciated, because I am not a fluent user/programmer! This is the "Error" that I am consistently being shown: "Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to www.motoscrubs.com:80. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact the web site owners to inform them of this problem." The forum website does not use the "https" address as it does not trade and the extra cost for this type of domain would be prohibitive to its continued maintenance. Thank you for your time. BillR

I'm running 145.0.2 on Mint Linux and Windows 11...

Like many other users, I have an issue in which roughly half of the icons representing bookmarks on my Bookmarks Toolbar have been replaced by the black+and+white icon of a globe. The links work, but because most of them are now the same, it means I have to hover over them to make sure I click on the link I want.

I've tried: Exporting all my bookmarks to HTML; deleting all bookmarks; re-importing Deleting the "favicons.sqlite" database and letting Firefox recreate it Creating a new Profile and importing all my bookmarks "fresh" in to there

Not only does none of this seem to work, the results are actually inconsistent.

This problem has been kicking around for years - certainly for many major releases of the browser. I understand that there could be deep/complicated issues such as a corrupt user profile, for example...

Unfortunately, however, there does not appear to be any consistent or reliable effective advice on how to fix this issue... and nothing I try seems to resolve the problem.

I'd be very grateful for any recommendations on a reliable repair for this issue.

But I'd also be grateful for suggestions as to how we might go about suggesting to the devs that this long-running bug is overdue a permanent fix.

Thanks in hope.

How to set Firefox to retain Login credentials for a website, so I do not have to validate every time I sign in. For example: When logging on to Chase Bank, United Airlines, etc. I have to validate my identity every time I log in, even though I have previously asked website to remember me. Previously, I did not have to do this.

Not a question, but I am vying for your "Least Important Problem of the Day" award. Mozilla makes great products. And,

The recent new "window fades away" when closing Firefox (or upon saving a file) is weirdly annoying and unnecessary imho. Obviously not a deal breaker, but I'd prefer if the window just closed. I don't need to wistfully watch it fade away. Thanks for the chance to offer input. Why am I even writing this.

I sure hope my bookmarks don't disappear like folks I'm seeing here today.

TODAY'S (NEW-ish) ISSUE: - Multiple times per day I Click the Yellow button Top Left Bar to shrink and put App in dock to open again later. When I re-Large FireFox shows EMPTY FireFox Bar like I "Quit". Each time need to go to History and RE-OPEN ALL TABS??????

1. 2 within THIS text box just now, I highlighted the words: "Today's Issue" and clicked BOLD - instead it added a 2nd set of parenthesis???? WTF?

Browser is open all day. Always multiple tabs open/signed in, Paid & non-paid Apps, Email boxes, Wix, etc, many website tabs up, I do a lot of "research" - to pay my $rent and/or live my life using this "tool". Is my typical behavior. IN THE MIDDLE OF DOING WORK - I need to fix re-load Firefox again and again. . . Interrupted, distracted, observe, deal with so many Tech failures every day from ALL brands, I am struggling to keep my "life" functioning.

470+ issues/articles counted in the 11 subject boxes - in HELP section. FOUR HUNDRED-SEVENTY.

Thank you to "Volunteers" responding to help / issues!! Do you do any MENTAL help volunteering? kc
