Firefox Community Forum

I was trying to fix a problem with eBay where I was unable to send a message to a seller. (A problem I have since discovered had nothing to do with Firefox it has to do with eBay). I had asked GPTchat for suggestions and it had me open a terminal and run some commands (don't remember what it was). while running this command we lost power and since then I cannot resize a Firefox window. However other windows like Dolphin or LibreOffice are unaffected. All else appears to run fine

When I want to save a webpage there is an red triangle showing in the download area. I have to retry the download every time. It happens on ALL web pages I want to save.

Because I chose to block it for a moment, I now have to dig through all this crap. What dumb fucking piece of shit thought that was a good idea. Fire everyone involved in this dumb ass decision.

I recently reset my password, but I accidentally picked the method that didn't use my encrypted data recovery key. I still have my recovery key, so is there a way to recover my data?

Hello, I want to be able to use containers when using Mozilla. I followed the instructions from the support article Multi-Account Containers link here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers but was unable to do anything other than install the extension. I have no access to a containers icon despite looking in my toolbox, settings, and extensions. When I click on tabs I am unable to put tabs into containers despite following the presented instructions. I also find that in settings I have the message "Firefox Multi-Account Containers requires container tabs". I thought that downloading the extension would allow for container tabs but I am unable to even find the option to open containers. I've attached some images to provide context as to what I am seeing. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

I was on the old version，Save as new file pop-up window

I can copy from anywhere and paste it in this window, close this window, and transfer it.

But now with the new version, after closing this window, the transfer action will also be closed

How can I modify it to get it back to the previous state?

I can't install Firefox on a new computer as it can't find any profiles. I have checked C:\Users\fitzm\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles folder and there are two profiles which I transferred from my old computer in there. Why can't Firefox find them.

I have been with Firefox as my browser for nearly twenty years - My Browser was suddenly blank when turned on- Reloaded an up to date browser. - No saved Browser Data Appeared - Checked my Passwords All gone. Help I'm 84 Not great on Computers - Try to be clear with your answer Thank you. Can I get my original browser back - Keith

After downloaded the app I changed a lot of settings, including checking the box to "open previous windows and tabs" on start in settings, however next time I opened the browser it didn't open my previous tabs and when I went to check the setting the box was unchecked and it won't allow me to check it. Why did this happen and how can I fix it? Note: IIRC, I changed all my settings and then created a Mozilla account and that is the only possible connection to this issue that I can think of.

So i have an odd question, something went awry after relatively recent update and my Firefox is not even bothering to display preferred 2 rows of links on new tab.

i basically use them as extended bookmarks in more convenient placement. as i have too many bookmarks

Hi. I have Windows 11. Firefox has been my default browser, and when I accessed a pdf document it opened Firefox, and displayed the pdf. I had to download Adobe to access a document, which didn't work, and I uninstalled it. However, now when I access a pdf it generates a new browser, and asks me whether I want to make Firefox my default browser. This doesn't work, so I now when I access my apps list on Windows settings I have 3 Firefox apps. Whatever I do to set defaults on only one of them, the other two don't go away, and every time I open a new pdf I get the dfeault message. It is really irritating. Have you any suggestions please?

Did something just happen, 02/24 10am, with Firefox or Windows 10, to make the computer reboot itself? Why did my Windows 10 computer just reboot itself, even reopened the Firefox browser?

Firefox is putting me in indefinite timeouts. WTH?!

It has suddenly decided to create a two hour timeout, which is now going on 24 hours and counting.

"The sign-in option is disabled because of failed sign-in attempts or repeated shutdowns. Use a different sign-in option, or keep your device powered on for at least two hours and then try again."

It is not my browser's job to police me. How do I get rid of this obnoxious crap forever? I Lart of the issue is the NumLock is no longer automatically activated. It always was before.

I also don't care for it's challenge question where I have to enter in A1B2C3. I have a security protocol and don't need more to bog me down!

I’ve been experiencing an issue with Firefox where the keywords I add to my bookmarks randomly disappear. I’ve made sure to save them correctly, but after some time, the keywords seem to vanish without any explanation. This happens intermittently, and it’s frustrating because it affects how I organize and access my bookmarks efficiently.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, is there a fix or workaround available? Any guidance or advice would be greatly appreciated!
