Firefox Community Forum

Dear Mozilla Support Community,

This is a rather interesting observation I've recently made, but it appears that with every new software update on my Firefox Developer Edition browser, that I inexplicably (and mysteriously) get signed off/logged off of all my already logged in websites, and while this isn't a major tech issue, per se... It is an annoying one and I would like some clarity on this.

Is there a feature that toggles this on and/or off? Or perhaps, this is a known bug? What is the bottom line on this?

Thank you!

Hello,

When I log in the long used firefox account in my new computer, it shows to register a new account, and seem all the “Favorites” websites and saved password was lost. How to fix it? The old account is still on my cellphone and functional.

You guys are just too stupid. It's better not to update at all. Where did you update the recently closed tab restoration function and the drag-and-drop search function to?

For some weeks I have ad an issue with Firefox using 50%-100% of CPU. Normally it is the Firefox process itself, sometimes it is also "Privileged Cont".

OS is Kubuntu 24.04. Firefox has done this across 2-3 versions.

Things I have tried:

Restarting Firefox No change, I'll even get 100% cpu usage with no tabs open

Refresh Firefox to remove settings and addons No change

Uninstall Snap and try direct Apt package No change

Remove ~/.mozilla to fully remove any residual settings/cache/etc No change

Try with and without hardware acceleration See: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1308215 No change!

I would blame my old computer hardware, but Brave runs fine. I am now using Brave, but would dearly like to return to Firefox as I miss containers, and I don't support a chromium dominated web.

Please forgive me for not being a "smart guy". I like to keep three rows on they home screen. BUT, I don't want every site or "sponsor" to add to that site. I hope that makes sense. I only want to have the ones I want. Example: I use att for my internet and email. "Currently" is where I log in, and then go to my email. But.....I end up with 4-5 "windows" from att on the Home screen. Also taps/links to places I haven't visited. Is there a way to stop stuff, and just save the ones I always want....unless I tag one to add?

Hoping this makes sense!!

Thanks for the help!! BWP

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-options-preferences-and-settings?as=u&utm_source=inproduct That page always opens togetherwith the actually wanted page ?

Recently I've had the Un-welcome experience of Scripts triggered on YouTube, which Over-ride my Installed extensions to Firefox.

I've had YouTube, somehow Disable extensions and refresh the webpage... Without my concent or even an option for concent!

I've even blocked the popup window, which triggers the script which performs this action within another extension... and within 7-10 days Youtube has by passed the bypass that i've employed...

In my opinion a web-browser which allowes for extensions to be installed and run... should Block any and All scripts which try to disable extensions!

I seriously hope this can be looked into asap... or someone in the community has a work around, as my work around (blocking hte window which triggres the script, which disables the extension....) was by-passed within 7-10 days...

I used to think myself a compettent net user, but i'm aged out atm... still if i'm unable to prevent this sh*t and manipulation within FireFox, I doubt the average user or the layman will have a chance in hell of being secure and keeping their chosen extensions running...

This needs looking into ASAP!

I've just updated Firefox to 136.0 and found the "return closed tab" key became blank and ineffective. I read the update log but didn't find infomation about this change. The function was useful to me and I hope to get it back.

Does anyone know how on Firefox for Windows 10., Pro. - 64 bit / Firefox Browser Ver.: 136.0.2 (64-bit):

How to Always have Google Translate open Weblinks in English ?

I have some software programs on my laptop:

• Advanced SystemCare (from: IO bit)
• Smart Defrag 10 (from: IO bit)
• Driver Booster 12 (from: IO bit),

and in the program, to open it's "User Manual", it redirects it to open an online manual, in a web browser, that seems to always open them in: "Sprache auswählen" language format, which seems to be of some German language orgin (upon trying to ID the language format & the form in of itself).

I'm using "Bitdefender VPN". Within Firefox browser, how do I get weblinks to require them to be opened in a browser, & to get them to be on an English version of Google Translate ? / here's the homepage of Google Translate: https://translate.google.com

Do I always need to disable: "Bitdefender VPN", just to have them properly open, without using a VPN of any kind ?

I oringinally thought that "Bitdefender VPN" is behind this, cause it's a VPN after all, & doesn't ID that i'm based in & within the United States of America.

I find this very strange why these weblinks open these pages on Google Translate, in some form of German. GOAL: i just want to find a fix to just get these links to: "auto-open", in English, on the Google Translate domain.

Please let me know if anyone has any idea's on how to fix this (& is there an approved Firefox Extention or Add-On that could be of some help in this area) ?

Any idea's on this could really be helpful / I only speek & understand in USA English [& unfortunately, I'm not bilingual] !

Thanks, Chris Canfield.
