After updating to FF 114, I noticed that my history and cookies were no longer being cleared according to my settings. Also, a particular page is now being opened as a pinned tab.

I reverted to FF 113, hoping that this would be fixed in 115. Today I tried 115.0.3, and history is still not being cleared. I have again reverted to FF 113.

I am on Windows 10. My history settings are to use Custom settings and clear history when Firefox closes. Cookie settings are to delete cookies and site data when FF closes.

Is there any intention to fix, or is this some new behavior that I am stuck with? Also, is there a way to clear the pinned tab behavior?

Thanks.

A webpage has 1,200 rows.

I do Select All or drag the cursor from the first row to the last row to highlight all of the rows.

I then do Copy.

When I do Paste (using Match Destination Formatting) to paste the copied rows into an empty Excel spreadsheet, only about 65 rows get posted.

What am I doing wrong?

I just want to open a .pdf file online . . . but Firefox insists on downloading it!

OS: Mac OS 10.14.5 Firefox Version: 113.0.2

Settings gives me multiple options for handling a .pdf file. The first three are (1) Open in Firefox; (2) Always ask; and (3) Save File.

If I select "Open in Firefox," the file will open in my existing window. If I select "Save File," the file downloads to my desktop.

The problem arises when I select "Always ask." If I then select "Open in Firefox," the file opens (in a new tab!) and simultaneously downloads to my desktop!

Is this a system glitch, or am I somehow doing something wrong?

All 3 Deceptive Content and Dangerous Software Protection check boxes are light blue and can not be changed in my Firefox browser settings. I want to be able to uncheck these settings. How do I do that?

It appears that Deceptive Content and Dangerous Software Protection is connecting with google based on what I have researched and this https://www.makeuseof.com/ways-fortify-firefox-browser/ and I view this as a privacy problem.

I have a task bar at the bottom of my screen -- or I used to. Ever since I installed a Norton protection program several says ago, the task bar shows up sometimes and other times, it is gone and I cannot access it. When it's there, it gives me access to the websites I'm using, all my written files and picture, video and other files, volume control and other options. I NEED TO SEE AND USE THIS TASK BAR ALL THE TIME, NOT SOME OF THE TIME WHEN FOR SOME REASON IT'S THERE. AGAIN, I WANT TO ACCESS THIS TASK BAR ALWAYS WHEN I'M ONLINE.

FIX THIS.

Thank you.

I am extremely angry that I decided to move from Chrome to Firefox for a safer browser just for Firefox to lose all my login information I accumulated after some years of use. I am not sure when or how this occurred but I never received any notification that nothing was syncing or I had been logged out. I want all my login information restored. On top of that, I've always had issues with Twitch.tv and any video site crashing. My only concern is my logins being restored.

Error: "Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to accounts.firefox.com. Cannot communicate securely with peer: no common encryption algorithm(s).

Error code: SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP

   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."

When it happens: - Irregular frequence. The same websites once work once don't. They work with Chrom/Edge/From my mobile(same wifi/router). - Sometimes I have to refresh the page a few times - Happens for all sort of webistes. From local news, to GitHub/Youtube/Google/Any website

Steps I have taken: - Cleared cache/cookies - Reset PC/Firefox - Cleared all extensions - Deleted Firefox (And manually deleted all folders in AppData related to Firefox) and reinstalled afterwards

Nothing helped. Any idea what is going on? I checked Mozilla documentation for SSL issues, but it didn't help either

Since I updated to version 113.0.2 every time I try to open certain websites, Firefox shows an error message "SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER". Once I choose to accept the risk and continue it redirects to the IP address "79.137.248.81" that redirects to spam. This happens on multiple sites, certain popular sites such as google work perfectly.

Yesterday I uninstalled and installed the browser. I rkilled and scanned my system with Malwarebytes, Avast and HitmanPro. I also have no malicious addons I found. Nothing worked.

I am attaching pictures of how the error shows.

Please Help.
