F**king fascist Russia! Are you out of your f**king mind??? No wonder the number of Firefox users is declining! Not only are the scripts constantly buggy, it's impossible to make a purchase in the most popular store in the world! And to get support, you need to learn English and get lost on the site!

I will switch to the hated Сhrome, I'm tired Thank you for understanding.

Hello, some years ago I found how to prevent FF to ask for the master password too often. Obviously, this setting involved the about:config editing. Now, I'd like to reduce this time because I'm requested for the master password only at FF launching and I cannot find the options I changed. I looked for options with the word "expire", but it doesn't seem to affect the situation. What was the option I changed? Or what is it now (in case latest FF versions have different options)? Thanks

FireFox to citizensbank.com gets "Access Denied on this server." See details below. Works if use Edge. Perhaps Citizens Bank doesn't like FireFox? Sometimes it works, and other times not. Can get to front page and login page if use Edge.

Using Asus laptop, Mozilla VPN (turning vpn off doesn't change behavior), connected to net via WiFi and DSL.

Odd thing is can connect using FireFox from hardwired desktop. Desktop is fairly old, laptop fairly new.

Failure details:

Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.citizensbank.com/promo/featured-products.aspx?" on this server.

When I click a link on page, or an app tries to open a tab (eg to print an ebay invoice), it opens and immediately closes the first time, but stays open the second time. It's really annoying.

In troubleshoot mode, it doesn't happen.

I am using FF109.0 and Linux Mint - 001-1.0 fresh install on new HD.

I had the same problem last year after I upgraded FF but did fix it eventually (can't remember how) Thanks

Firefox cannot connect to university network

Hi,

I use Firefox on my laptop and attend a small university. The university utilizes Google's Gmail organizations to give us all .edu email addresses. There's also a "single-sign-on" feature that you have to login through to access some other university sites, such as the Moodle page (course page).

Around 6 months ago Firefox was no longer to able to access the course page, Moodle. It was still able to access Gmail and other pages. Other browsers and other computers using Firefox could still access Moodle. The problem became more severe and Firefox on my laptop was no longer able to access any sites which needed to use my university Gmail account or any that utilized the single-sign-on feature. Again, other browsers and other computers on the same network running Firefox were able to access the sites no problem.

The error page I would receive on my laptop: "Error code: SEC_ERROR_PKCS11_GENERAL_ERROR"

At the same time this started to occur, I noticed on Microsoft Edge that the university sites would request a certificate from me when it hadn't previously. Unsure if that's related, but I tried resetting the certificate information in Firefox, the tried using all three certificates available and none worked.

I'm not sure what's changed, but now when I try to access any university page I simply get a "secure connection failed" message. All other browsers can access the page, and Firefox still works on other computers all on the same internet connection.

Not sure what do to at this point.

Hello, Yesterday I accidentally removed the icon that allowed me to quickly open a new window by the tab on the right. I was looking for how to turn it back on, and unfortunately I could not find such information or option in the settings. It makes it very easy for me to work and search for information. In the attachments I will send a screenshot of what it looks like with me now and what icon I am referring to; I downloaded a picture from the Internet where it is. Thank you in advance for your help.

Do containers not sync? I don't see any explicit option to include them in the sync settings. I have "add-ons" and "settings" checked. One computer has the correct containers and the rest have the default set (personal, shopping, etc.). Sync is otherwise working correctly.

In response to early replies I realized I left out some detail in my question.

- I have sync enabled in the extension settings. - This is a continuous problem (the containers from one browser have never synced with the others, over many months) so I don't think it's just a time delay issue.

Thanks for your responses.

Hello, I will try to describe my issue. Today I, as always, turned on my computer and just the same way as always opened firefox to browse the internet. Then, I found out that im logged out of almost every site like Facebook, YouTube, Gmail, Twitch, Amazon but some of them remained logged in. Those logged-out sites asked me to accept cookies which I have done a lot of years ago. It was such a peculiar situation, because all of the passwords were saved and I could just log in again. I didn't find any unauthorized loggings. I wonder if it's a random situation or somebody is executing it. Do you have any idea how would that happen? Best regards

Using Firefox 109.0 (64-bit) and my Extension Button's changed to an inconvenient location, cannot be moved, and no longer goes directly to about:addons. Instead just gives me a useless list of extensions I have. Not sure why it's suddenly become an annoying, useless button.
