Firefox Support Forum

Starting yesterday morning, I can't load a SharePoint site page without clearing the cache or using ctrl-f5. I've tried setting browser.cache.disk.enable and browser.cache.memory.enable both to false, to no avail. I've disabled all extensions, no luck. I don't get any error, it just hangs without loading. It works fine if I clear the cache, but on the second time loading the same page hangs again.

The pages in question work fine if I use a private window, but that also means I need to get past MFA every single time, which is ridiculous because I am the SharePoint designer. The same pages work fine if I switch to Chrome or Edge.

I am 99% sure the problem is this recent update, as nothing else changed since Friday. Firefox 99.0 (20220330194208) Installed on: April 7, 2022, 9:10:13 AM

Today's update, less than an hour ago, didn't resolved it. Firefox 99.0.1 (20220411174855)Details Installed on: April 12, 2022, 8:50:11 AM

While there are "focus"/"background" options in the about.config settings for hyperlinks and bookmarks, I can't find an option to load un-closed tabs (using Ctrl+Shift+T) in the background. Likewise, I can't get new tabs (Ctrl+T or middle-clicking the tab bar) to load in the background. Is there any way of doing this with the existing settings, or would modification of the browser's code be needed?

We have synchronization problem while trying to open Firefox exe from SAP. In the lower versions of Firefox (like v45) it is working well but in latest version it is not. Scenario : In the lower versions when we open the Firefox and loading the website, the control goes to website from SAP(The background SAP window act as disabled) and return back to SAP only after closing the Firefox window. But in latest version it is running in different thread. Is there any setting in new versions to enable old feature/ How to manage this in new version?

When I download a file, I often separate sections of the name with 2 spaces, to make it easier to read. (I also use different types of brackets and hyphens etc.) See example in screenshot attached.

This worked fine with Firefox, until about 6 to 12 months ago I think. Since around that time, the filename that I choose is no longer being retained. Now, each double space is being changed automatically to just a single space.

I tested Chrome and Brave browsers using all the same parameters (same filename, source file, website, computer, user etc). Those browsers both respected the name chosen and retained the double spaces.

Obviously, changing the filename from the one the user chooses is not expected or desireable. If this is a "feature" rather than a bug in Firefox, then could you please create a way to disable it, eg in settings or about:config. Thanks.

ive been having issues screensharing videos playing on firefox and ive already checked to see if it was discord but it appears to be on the firefox end what happens is videos on youtube or any other service will play fine audio, video all good but if i tab out into another application like discord where i might be sharing the firefox screen to watch with others the video will freeze but the audio will continue until i tab back into firefox this happens no matter the site the video is on and ive tried tabbing into other applications while using firefox for videos and it still does it firefox is the only browser that i can screenshare on without it blacking out the video so i am hoping to get this sorted out

Firefox upgrades fail to save Tabs and Bookmarks. Consequently, this is not a genuine upgrade but instead is the implementation of a new client. Previously, Firefox upgrades saved both Tabs and Bookmarks. Unfortunately recent upgrades no longer perform this function.

Requiring users to manually (dangerously) search through past Profiles and hopefully select the correct profile to launch in an attempt to restore these two features is burdensome to users. Additionally, when one of many past profiles is selected for launch, Tabs are not restored. Previous Bookmarks are restore under different headings that require new navigation clicks to access.

The first attempt to upgrade installed Firefox 72. After reverting back to the older version and attempting a second upgrade, the new launch was Firefox 100b. Go figure.

As I write this message in a newly upgraded Version 72, I am uncertain as to whether or not to set this as the default version out of fear of not being able to eventually get my Tabs from my older version. So I will revert back to the older version in the hope that I might eventually learn how to defeat this current Firefox Fault.

Thank you for the help and links to instructions to fix this problem that were sent. The steps provided were not clear enough to follow without repeatedly failing to fix the problem. IE: "Restore Session" options did not exist; Tabs were not restored when Bookmarks were restore in a completely modified user interface; the means to determine which of dozens of Profiles to select was not provided.

Am having difficulties on a Windows operating system using a Gmail email set-up and having trouble with a proxy arrangement whereby Microsoft/Outlook connects to one of my two gmail accounts that are linked together and often times, my emails that are important do not go out using my default request for Gmail and instead Microsoft intrudes because of their customers who wish to know my uses as a user on the internet prompting requests to change browser, email responses that claim no delivery, and further troubles all while I am ready to start my online business. For page loads, fastest is Mozilla. Further information is needed please. Name: Kevin Michael Callihan Sr, 2 emails with gmail: [edited email from public] @gmail.com and [edited email from public] @gmail.com, then another outlook account added because Microsoft claimed it was needed when it was for sake of greed and profits: [edited email from public] @outlook.com *I would not share this unless a belief in trusted caretakers online exist knowing the dominant system is Microsoft/Windows which is why I sense something being wrong, on occasion. Send any and all emails to [edited email from public] @gmail.com PLEASE

From all I've seen there is no simple solution for fixing "tabs on bottom/below bookmarks".

Originally there was an option for fixing this in settings.. which is no longer. It used to be there was an extension that also enabled this.. which is no longer.

Which brings us to today -> Version: Firefox 99.0.1 (64 bit)

Everything a person can lookup online only leads back to a very annoying and NOT simple process of editing some kinda file (that no grandma is gonna have any knowledge of how to manage that!) and making even more annoying changes to that file.

Solution that needs to be: FIX IT! FIX IT! FIX IT! - PUT IT BACK MOZILLA!!!

And to whatever "dev(s)" that are responsible for this issue.. I hope your coffee always spills, I hope traffic is nothing but brutal for you, just whatever it takes for you to stop making such dumb changes and sets the example for others to learn from so that it doesn't happen ever again.

If someone else wouldn't mind.. please go make an extension (and keep up with it) to fix this nightmare and end it because we clearly cannot rely upon the simplest of things by these fools.

1) On https://www.mozilla.org/en-US, the 'get the new Firefox' button leads to a page that, one realises eventually, is only for _mobile_ Firefox. (Also: 'new'? In what sense.)

2) Finding _this_ page - the one where one can ask questions - is _much_ too hard.

3) I have had to type all this three times. For, every time that, in _another Firefox tab_, I navigate to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/, this tab somehow disappears.

Even if we set aside 3, which might be a configuration problem, we have here - in 1 and 2 - gross navigability problems that are, sadly, typical for Mozilla websites.

Hello, in the past week at least 10 of my users have had issues with Gmail timing out in Firefox on Windows 10. We cleared cache/cookies, uninstalled/reinstalled, and updated both Dell and Windows. The error message states "reconnecting in 10s" but never reconnects. At first glance, it appears the users are having network issues. However, Gmail in Chrome doesn't present this issue. Please advise. Thank you.

Hi all,

Previews / Images have stopped being displayed when posting URL links to Facebook Pages & Groups Happens on ' ALL ' website URL's posted , no matter the website. This ' continues ' ... even AFTER doing a full un-install & then re-install of Firefox v99 Problem is NOT manifesting on any other browsers ie. Chrome / Edge

Never been a problem before , but now copies link address as if it is just text & not an active link.

Desperate to solve this Firefox / Facebook issue . . . if anyone can help ??

Witam. Mam Fiirefox 100 i za nic w świecie nie mogę wyłączyć automatycznego zapisywania plików na dysku. Wszedłem w Ustawienia >> Aplikacje i dla plików pdf. wybrałem "Zawsze pytaj". Podczas pobierania pojawia się monit: "Co Firefox ma zrobić z tym plikiem?" Wybieram: "Otwórz za pomocą Adobe Reader." Tak się tez dzieje ale za każdym razem plik i tak jest zapisywany w tle przez menedżera pobierania na dysku. Jak to wyłączyć?

I use firefox 99 and 100 on two different Windows10 PC with same account. I install and set a new theme from addon store on 1 but minutes later it change to default. I do the same thing one PC 2 and it happens again. Now both of them are default theme. I tested sereval time, it seems that when the themes are different, they'll all be set to default.

I transcribe music into PDFs for Distributed Proofreaders, and often refer to original PDFs from IMSLP. Firefox always opens at the top and I have to find the place I was working over and over again. It's frustrating, especially on very long pieces. Edge remembers and goes to the last place I was comparing files.

I love Firefox—have been here many years. Edge is frustrating for proofreading and formatting. I'm not changing browsers. I'd just prefer to use Firefox for PDFs when I'm working on music.

Can this be fixed in your next upgrade? Thanks!
