I'm having problems with CPU usage (and Mac temperature) after last update in the full screen mode (I use a firefox extention). It may be changed something in last update? When normally in my daily use of firefox I don't have any problems about my pc temperature. Plus it happens that the external links like the Zoom from Firefox to the application or the the "favourites" link pages I added on my dock don't work at the first click, but I have to wait firefox to open, after I click the first time, and then I can open the favourite from my dock

Hello,

Favicon is not appearing in Firefox Popup window though they are appearing in normal tabs. In Popup browser window it is showing the default Mozilla Firefox icon. I want to know if Firefox is not supporting Favicons for Popup windows or what we need to do make the Favicon appear in Firefox browser Popup window. I am using the following line of code for Favicon-

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="img/fav-icon.png"/>

With the same line of code other browsers are showing the Favicons correctly in Popup windows It just the Firefox having the issues.

I am currently facing issue with the attribute aria-disabled only in firefox browser. Using nvda reader when I move on to buttons using tab key the reader reads the aria-label of button but it also says button unavailable even when the button has aria-disabled="false".The same behaviour with the narrator it reads it as button disabled. The
  • tag that covers these have aria-disabled="true". But I think that should not have effect on these button elements as I have explicitly gave on the button the aria-disabled="false". Kindly please look into this issue and resolve. Code Sample:
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html lang="en">
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <title>List with Accessible Buttons</title>
    </head>
    <body>
            <li aria-disabled="true" >
                Item 1
                <button aria-disabled="false" aria-label="Button 1"  onclick="alert('Button 1 clicked')">Button 1</button>
                <button aria-disabled="false" aria-label="Button 2" onclick="alert('Button 2 clicked')">Button 2</button>
            </li>
            <li aria-disabled="true">
                Item 2
                <button aria-disabled="false" aria-label="Button 3" onclick="alert('Button 3 clicked')">Button 3</button>
                <button aria-disabled="false" aria-label="Button 4" onclick="alert('Button 4 clicked')">Button 4</button>
            </li>
            <li aria-disabled="true">
                Item 3
                <button aria-disabled="false" aria-label="Button 5" onclick="alert('Button 5 clicked')">Button 5</button>
                <button aria-disabled="false" aria-label="Button 6" onclick="alert('Button 6 clicked')">Button 6</button>
            </li>

    Hi

    I wondered if I could get help understanding why a crash might be happening. Firefox seems to suddenly be crashing for a reason I can't determine. This crash was when I opened a YouTube tab, but it also happened on a Pinterist tab yesterday. I was running Firefox in troubleshooting mode on this most recent crash, which had the following id:

    bp-5c36d424-6fc1-4fec-b56b-173b90230910

    The only thing I've changed recently is moving some extensions from the main toolbar to the new extensions "puzzle piece" area, as well as switching from the default theme to the dark theme offered in the themes area.

    Thank you for any recommendations.

    Hello, Fo years I've used native Firefox on my Ubuntu system (which is /usr/bin/firefox). Now I've switched to snap firefox, because it's the new way to use and update Firefox on Ubuntu systems. I used too an extension called Open with (https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/open-with/), to open shell scripts when I right clicked on a hypertext link to use it in the script shell. Then the script did its job with the url link received in parameter. I know it wasn't the goal of this extension, but It did the job I wanted. Now, in the snap firefox, I cannot do the same. It seems its because native messaging (https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native_messaging) doesn't allow permission to interact with others applications (fix me if I'm wrong). I test several extensions, but I didn't find one to do the same job, and I've not the skills to developp it. Si here's my question: is there a way to do execute this type of script (not JavaScript) doing a right click on a link? Thank you for your help.

    I just filled all of this out. When I clicked on Submit everything disappeared and the boxes are now red. Really, I have to go through all of it again. Oy! The box with applications for my downloads used to have one or two or three. Now it has this; irc ircs JPEG Image mailto Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Worksheet Microsoft Excel Comma Separated Values File (application/ms-excel) Microsoft Excel Comma Separated Values File (application/x-csv) Microsoft Excel Worksheet Microsoft Word 97 - 2003 Document Microsoft Word Document ms-phone ms-settings ms-word onenote PNG Image Portable Document Format (PDF) Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) spotify WebP Image zoommtg

    What is Word 97-2003 doing there? Why is my phone an option? I didn't give Firefox my number. That's one problem. This issue makes my skin crawl. If I have to fill out a form on a new website all I have to do is type J and my full name, all of my email addresses, my physical address, and phone number appear in little boxes below the lines of the form. This is new and i really don't like it. Why, out of nowhere, is my information avaiblabe on the entire internet? If I hit Submit and these boxes turn a new color I will start screaming.

    Hello and great work so far Firefox team!

    Currently, Firefox can be used in Windows from the command line to open any URL (start firefox www.google.com). Since any browser is expected to have Internet access to any website or IP address, this is a real security concern in case of default deny security for firewall outbound traffic.

    Here is a hacker scenario: The PC has a list of whitelist applications allowed to connect to the Internet. This prevents lots of malware from connecting to their remote servers. However, malware can bypass that by listening on localhost and requesting Firefox to open the remote server. This way the malware sends and receives data with the server using Firefox after requesting an URL with the malware local port specified as query parameter.

    This can be avoided with a special about:config option that completely disables command line processing. I don't know if that's entirely possible, but preventing Firefox to start URLs from command line or explicitly requesting Internet access for static HTML files should be enough.

    Note: I use NoScript and that helps in this case, but it is not a bullet proof solution. It may be possible that one of the CDN I have allowed gets hacked with malicious JavaScript. If the malware is already on the PC, it can connect to the remote server using the hacked CDN that is allowed in NoScript. This is a two piece attack, but I still think that using Firefox to access to random URL from command line is dangerous and should have an option to be turned off.

    I disabled all extensions today to troubleshoot a website and all of my Firefox container data is GONE!

    Luckily, I have a second computer with Firefox that was synced earlier today before I did this.

    I have put that computer #2 into airplane mode and have not opened Firefox in fear that a new sync will overwrite the data.

    So far, I have saved "containers json" and "cookies sqlite" from computer #2 profile folder

    Then, I backed up "containers json" and "cookies sqlite" from computer #1 profile folder (this is the computer I'm using now with the broken containers)

    I have placed "containers json" and "cookies sqlite" from computer #2 and overwritten them on computer #1

    The container names are back, and some of the containers remember the site logins, but some don't, and none of the websites will open in the specifically chosen containers from before.

    Is there a way to restore the sites that were logged in and which sites auto-open with the specific container?

    Thank you in advance

    I wish to add a new PC to devices I am currently syncing (a "legacy" PC, a laptop, my iPhone). I can confirm from the legacy my correct password and can log in using it. I have installed the up-to-date Firefox on the new PC. When I attempt to log in to Firefox/sync on the new machine, it will not recognize the confirmed password. FYI, this is a new password created Aug 23. The new machine runs Win 11, the old Win 10.
