Firefox Support Forum

After a mistaken forced restart (inadvertent pressure on the shutdown/start key), one of the 3 windows I had open is invisible. It shows in the 'Windows" menu as one of 3 but when I select it - nothing. It does not show as a recently closed window in History. I have restarted Firefox multiple times, including deleting the xulstore.json file then restarting (a fix from another similar thread).

How can I restore this inaccessible window?

Thanks

I want to permanently delete my passwords from Mozilla. Mozilla claims there are none stored, but it fills out all registrations independently. No other browser does that.

Is there a simple method to turn off the annoying popup notifications about upgrading Firefox? I don't want to upgrade, FF seems to be working fine. Sometimes updates bring new problems.

I'm not a programmer, so I'm hoping there is a simple fix to stop update notices. I think it was a bad idea to have them appear in front of other websites. They often popup when I'm watching something on Netflix.

What is fire fox? What is it used for? How can we use firfox for our privacy and Security settings? Does firefox provide us with better privacy and security settings or not? And how do we use firefox?

Confused as to why there 44 instances of FF showing up in task manager. Win 11.

ANy help appreciated.

My PC is running v slow.

No viruses as per MWBytes scan.

When playing a youtube video, I can hear the audio playing and see the time passing on but the on screen video is just stuck even when buffered full clip. I check on chrome browser, this doesnt happen there. Reset firefox, the issue is still here

I get this error message and then it shuts down if I don't stop it by deleting it....

“Error while installing” :Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) Fire Fox then shuts down if I don’t delete it.

The file you are supposed to download on page "https://www.support.xerox.com/en-us/content/146849" gives a webpage with trash, where it should open the download window . I know it's Firefox because I tried downloading that file via Opera browser and that succeeded . Dowloading zip files from the Xerox website gave no problem, only DEB files .

Dear Mozilla Firefox Community,

I am writing to bring to your attention an issue that I have encountered while using the Mozilla Firefox search engine. Recently, I have come across a website that is not functioning properly while using Mozilla Firefox.

I have tried accessing this (https://agtsipk.com/best-manpower-recruitment-agency-for-uae-in-pakistan/) website on different browsers, and it appears to work fine on all of them except for Mozilla Firefox. This issue has been consistent over a period of time, and I have tried clearing my cache, cookies, and disabling extensions, but the problem persists.

As an active member of the Mozilla Firefox community, I wanted to share this experience with you and urge you to look into this issue. I believe that this problem needs to be addressed as soon as possible, as it can cause inconvenience to other users who are facing a similar issue.

I am confident that with the collaborative efforts of the Mozilla Firefox community, we can address this issue and ensure that all websites work seamlessly with Mozilla Firefox.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your response.

Should I be concerned? getting many, over 20, safeframe.googlesyndication cookies on firefox using yahoo and weatherunderground. I delete them and they come right back. Only on new laptop win11 v22H2. Firefox ver 111.0.1 This is a new laptop. I do not have these cookies on 3 other laptops, 2 windows 10, 1 win 11 also new. I see these cookies on CCleaner

Hi,

As the title says, Firefox throws "We can’t connect to the server at m.imdb.com." error every time I try to open a page while everything else works like Chrome, Edge and when I ping via command prompt I get replies and other applications. (Win 10 64-bit with latest Firefox)

I think it's a system-wide problem but I can't figure out where. I was under the impression that it's a DNS problem but it doesn't even open IP addresses like 192.168.1.1 and it doesn't open instantly, no matter it's Google.com or my router IP, instant error message.

I tried everything I could find which are:

• Refresh, clean re-install with deleting profile directory
• clearing cache and data
• Toggling these in about:config: network.http.http3.enabled, network.dns.disableIPv6, network.dns.disablePrefetch
• Enabling/disabling my adapter
• Running a couple commands:

   ipconfig /flushdns
   ipconfig /registerdns
   ipconfig /release
   ipconfig /renew

   netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
   netsh winsock reset catalog
   netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log
   netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log

• Setting proxy to None
• Restarting with Troubleshoot Mode (add-ons disabled)
• Removing Firefox entry from Windows Firewall. (I haven't installed any Firewall and Anti-Virus)
• WIndows's Network Reset
• Rebooting machine and router

I'm sure there are more, these are all I can remember now.

This happened some months ago but can't seem to remember how I fixed it.

The only way it opens sites is with a VPN that sets a system proxy and setting Firefox's proxy to "Use System Proxy Settings".

Cheers

I am a member of the local library and I sometimes want to search the catalogue or reserve a book from home using my laptop. I have Googled how to put the menbership number and pin as a book mark and it is successful-but only for a short time . The next time I go to log on automatically it doesn't work and I have to input it manually.

I have been to the library and got staff there to put the details in and it works when I am there at the library but fails when I am home.(2 very capable library people tried and both eventually failed)

My library membership number is very long and it is tedious to enter it every time-can you help please? Thanks Peter

Regarding the extensions drop down menu, how does one re-arrange (and possibly hide) these extensions that are not pinned to the toolbar? I know how that to rearrange the extensions pinned to the toolbar: one has to go to "Customized Toolbar" and drag and drop. But I can't find information on how to re-arrange these other extensions. Thks

Hello everyone,

Prior to this 110.0 release, every time I would access my Bookmarks menu, it would remember where in the list I last left off, and I could return to that section of the list next time. Now, if I go all the way to the bottom of my Bookmark list, next time FF returns me to the top of the list, and I have to scroll down again. Anyone know how to fix?

My PC failed and I am returning it. My Firefox browser was syned and I have saved sensitive passwords. I can't access the hard drive directly. Is it possible to "de-authorize" the computer remotely so the next time it's turned on it will log out and remove the info automatically?

Using Firefox, my page will involuntarily changes size or will highlight text not requested.

If I need to change a setting...please send instructions to: [email-removed]
