For ages I've had my tabs automatically restored when opening Firefox. But as of the last few days it won't. The old links are saved so I can restore them one by one through history but that's not automatic. And if I click on restoration in History it will bring up a whole bunch of old tabs not neccessarily from the last session.

I'm on the same computer as I've been for over a year, so I don't know what what the problem is. I've searched on it and tried to re-check the box for this function. But it won't apply...

I encounter this error only on my.nintendo.com. However nobody else I know encounters this (even using Firefox) and I do not encounter it on Edge browser.

When I open the site it stays for a few seconds, then loads an error page. Then this error page reloads itself every few seconds. I tried to include some Inspect tool details. Before a 404 error there are 303 and 302 responses. I live near my friends who do not have this issue (same ISP too) so it's not a regional issue. In the screenshots the four (and two more further down) red GETs below are all "304 Not Modified" status'd

I'm not sure what type of info I can dump from the browser or how, to help diagnose this. I'm on Windows 11 (though I was having this isue on my dual-booted Linux install too), on version 121.0.1 (see screenshot of About Firefox for more?)

Thank you for your time reading my post, please help me report this with more details.

I have to either tab through the various fields, which is a pain, or try to move the mouse and somehow select a field, which takes me numerious tries. I'm on Windows 11. This does not happen with any other application or browser that I use. I try to use specific browsers for different types of work. I work as a Test Analyist and I reguarlly need to view websites on various pc's and os's. I've never seen this occur at work. Unfortunately for me, this is occuring on my home PC. I've tried everything I can think of, uninstalling and reinstalling, rebooting, and checking the settings for anything that would explain why this is happening. I have not found anything yet. If this keeps up, I'll have to switch to another browser.

I am unable to login to the DVLC. I get as far as the enter reg number of a car to check it,s been taxed. Then after I input the reg number the next page tell me it is an insecure page. This also happens on my laptop. On both desktop and laptop I am using firefox with duck duck go as an add on. However. In using my mobile with the stand alone duck duck go browser, I can log in and complete the task. This points to a problem with Firefox. Any advice's. This seems to be recent as I have used the laptop and desktop to use the check for a taxed car system ok in the past.

Around August of last year I started getting this issue where I am unable to reach any Google related site like Youtube, Gmail and such. It drove me crazy and at some point I started using other browsers because of this issue. Sometimes my request goes through and sometimes its blocked. I have disabled my anti-virus, stopped all plugins, but all my attempts at fixing this were in vain.

I really appreciate the container tab option for my browsing, as it affords me more privacy and I am a stickler about my privacy. However- I have been having an issue with links that I am attempting to open in a specific container that will load, and then immediately reload into the tab without a container. This has happened several times. The most recent example is that I clicked on a link from FB, a site I tend to avoid, and specified that I want it opened in a FB tab, as I don't trust them not to track me beyond that. However, the link loaded in the FB tab and immediately again with no container whatsoever. There was no request, no warning that I had set up the "multi-account container" and did I want to use it in the designated container... nothing. This has happened with links before as well.

This happens with multiple sites, so it is a Firefox BUG issue.

  1. 1 - When I go to login at "office.com/setup" I try to set up a new account because I don't recall my login.
  2. 2 - I type in my login name, example: "email@domain.com"
  3. 3 - Surprisingly it says choose another email, that one is in use.
  4. 4 - SO, I go back out and try again only THIS time I try logging in with my email because it is ME, not a new person
  5. 5 - Then it sends me to a NEW window to change my pwd.

I enter NEW pwd twice. It sends me back to the login page, I enter my new info and it sends me back to enter my NEWER password twice again. I fall for it and enter ANOTHER NEW PWD.

  1. 6 - It sends me back out to login AGAIN, then it asks me to enter my NEW password twice again.
  2. 7 - repeat #6 indefinitely

This has happened to me at my bank and Microsoft office download. These two companies are NOT related. But I am using Firefox both times. SUGGESTIONS??? My bank locked me out for too many attempts to get in. On and ON and ON and ON.

Hello,

I am experiencing a persistent issue with web browsers on my Lenovo Legion T5 26IAB running Windows 11 Home. Regardless of whether I use Mozilla Firefox, the browser frequently crashes. This happens at least once a day, and it seems to be unrelated to the number of tabs open or the specific content being viewed. I did the help -> diagnose mode without plugin and it crashed too, im not sure what this is realted to.

The crashes often present with an error message suggesting a failure in the new tabs or trying to load a old one, despite the fact that my system's RAM usage is typically around 60-70%. I have already updated the BIOS, Lenovo drivers, and NVIDIA graphics drivers, but the issue persists.

I'm seeking advice on what might be causing these browser crashes. Is it possible that there's a compatibility issue with Windows 11 Home? Could it be related to the graphics card or its drivers, even though they are up-to-date? I have not changed the power cable from my old PC; could this be a factor?

Any insights, suggestions, or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to determine if this is a hardware issue, a driver conflict, or something else entirely.

Thank you in advance for your help.

I am having issues with Firefox crashing at various times though out the day. It always starts out fine, but at some point it just stops responding and I have to close the browser and reopen it. This happens at least once a day and it does it on different units (my LG Laptop, Dell Desktops (2 different units-1 at work and 1 at home), Surface Pro 9, my Dell laptop), so I know it is not the unit, it is something in Firefox! My Dell laptop runs Windows 10, all the others run Windows 11. Please look into this and provide a patch. Thank you!
