Firefox Community Forum

When I go into Settings, I see the following message at the top:

"Your browser is being managed by your organization."

I've never seen this before. Going into about:policies, this is what I see:

ImportEnterpriseRoots

It's the only one there. My searches have told me that this should only appear if you're not an admin and it's on a work computer. But I am the admin and my computer is a home one, not a work one so this message shouldn't be there. I have looked up around here to find out how to disable/remove this and I did the following:

I found and followed these solutions here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1434356 https://winaero.com/remove-your-browser-is-being-managed-by-your-organization-from-firefox/ https://www.minitool.com/news/firefox-your-browser-is-managed-by-your-organization.html

Where I made a backup of the Registry and went in to delete ImportEnterpriseRoots. I restarted Firefox afterwards, and when I checked it was removed. I restarted my computer just to be sure that it was removed, but upon restart the message appeared again and ImportEnterpriseRoots reappeared.

I then checked out these solutions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-disable-enterprise-roots-preference https://support.mozilla.org/eu/questions/1313379

Where I go to about:config the "security.certerrors.mitm.auto_enable_enterprise_roots" can be disabled, but the "security.enterprise_roots.enabled" is grayed out and I can't disable it at all. The solution above mentions that this can be caused by your anti virus. I tried disabling "https scanning" and "QUIC/http3" under Norton's Safe Web option, but this did nothing. I'm planning on removing Norton soon once my sub runs out and I know Norton is doing this to Firefox, so I'm concerned that if I don't remove this when I do an uninstall it will screw up Firefox or my computer. I've tried asking the Norton forums and they only offered the solutions above that I tried and they didn't work at all.

How do I remove the "Your browser is being managed by your organization." message and ImportEnterpriseRoots from Firefox if these solutions don't work?

As far as I can tell from reading the help pages, the Firefox translation feature should automatically translate any page in any available language, unless explicitly set not to do so. However, I observe that no translation occurs unless I first select text, right click, and select translate, and even then, the translation is presented as unformatted text in a separate dialog box, which is not much better than copying and pasting web pages into some other translator service. Am I missing something here?

Sadly, this is not even close to being competitive with the Google Translate level of functionality. I use Google Translate every day to read package labels in grocery stores, road signs, and a host of other written sources of information. Occasionally, I even use it to hold conversations with people I would not otherwise be able to talk to. So far, I am nearly monolingual, and I am unwilling to do without this; I probably wouldn't travel if it were not available. It does tie me to that fraction of the surface area of the earth where high speed internet access is generally available, but I don't really need to go any places where it is not; I am not trying to hike across Antarctica. I understand that there is a loss of privacy when dealing with Google, but I do whatever I can to fend that off, and the value of the free services I receive in exchange is huge. What's the future of Firefox in this respect?

You haven't provided an off switch for this "thumbnail preview image of the webpage" on my taskbar? I don't want anything dropping down from my task bar on hovering over it.

This is a new thing, that Firefox for some reason thought was a good idea. Mouse hovering on my taskbar, and have a drop down thumbnail preview image of the webpage?

Thank you all in advance...  :)

When I try to make Yahoo my default search engine (on desktop), Firefox does not give me that option. The dropdown choices are things like Amazon, Google... no Yahoo.

Are the captions being generated in firefox. I've never had this happen before.The captions are unrelated with I'm doing and are very distracting . Please tell mr how to discontinue them. Thank You

i have dual monitor. i have fire fox shortcut tab on both side of screens. when i hover on left of right screen , it shows tabs preview for both screens. this has become confusing for me. i need to see them seprate. so if i hover on fire fox logo either right or left screen i need to only see that side of preview. can you tell me where and how to do this setup.

Each day I get email from WSJ Editors for "Today's Print Edition. When I click the blue button "Read Today's Edition" edge is launched and the print edition is there even though I have Fierfox as my default browser. I use a gmail account that is displayed in Microsoft email. Win 10 64 bit OS.

While using Linux I noticed that I Walmart's Captcha would display correctly. I cleared recent history and cookies and it still occurred. The problem was Cache. I cleared the cache but it did not work. I had to manually remove the cache located in /home/directory/.cache/mozilla/firefox. I eve closed FF and reopened but still the same.

How can I completely clear the cache in firefox? Shouldn't FF completely clear cache after be closed ?

I use Firefox version 134.0.1 on a Linux Mint Cinnamon 21.3 OS. For a few weeks now, a semi-transparent address bar has been displayed in the top left corner of web apps that I have created. I have attached an example image. Is there a way to hide this bar in the web apps? I find it extremely annoying.

When in full screen, is it possible to reveal both toolbars with a mouse hover, rather than just the navbar

Also, is it possible to move the "Zoom" entry to the top of the menu.

BTW, what do you do here when the none of the "Please Select" topics match your question, since there is no "Other" option?
