I switched from windows 10 to 11 and to a new laptop. Here in my new laptop Asus tuf 15 ,even though it has better RAM , internet connection, cache memory, cores the FIREFOX doesnot function properly. It's extremly laggy specially when I use YOURUBE . In my earlier HP laptop with 8 GB ram I could use 10-15 tabs at one time .It would still not lag . It could do web development at the same time I could watch youtube tutorials. But now I barely open 4-5 tabs the youtube starts freezing up to the extent that I really get frustrated. Please so something or I will have to switch to BRAVE browser or something.

Hello Mozilla,

I hope this message finds you well. I had the pleasure of being part of the Mozilla team approximately three years ago, and I must say, I cherished every moment of it.

I am reaching out to you today with a pressing matter. My current company, Five9, recently submitted an extension that unfortunately got rejected. This extension is crucial for our business operations, and its rejection has put us in a challenging situation.

I understand that reviewing submissions is a meticulous process, but I wanted to inquire if there's any possibility of having our extension reevaluated. Your assistance in this matter would be immensely appreciated.

As a side note, during my time at Mozilla, I had the privilege of collaborating with the operations team, led by Sean Rich.

Thank you for considering our request. Looking forward to your response.

Best regards, Jorge M Spiropulo Five9 Architecture

Firefox not working correctly after I reset the browser

My Firefox Menu dropdowns disappeared so I read that you should hit "alt" button to restore it. It only works temporarily and dropdowns disappear every 5 minutes. And Firefox is not saving passwords when I visit websites. (I checked and I still have all my passwords saved in Firefox Settings.) And I have "Fill usernames and passwords automatically" checked in Firefox Privacy Settings.

I started having problems with Firefox when I installed "Hide my IP" add-on because I wanted to change my IP address. I added it because I was getting website advertisement popups telling me to buy a VPN. I disabled "Hide my IP" yesterday. And I'm also getting more website popups now. Do I have to tweak Firefox Settings to stop all of these problems?

Firefox has been up-to-date and I'm using Windows 10.

Help!!! After using this profile to sign in here to ask a question yesterday, upon restarting Firefox today it has deleted my entire login history, cookies and all passwords. However, when I go to recover these, the only default profile I can find when I do an "about:profiles" is one that is five years old.

I can literally no longer access any of the sites I use because al of the logins are gone.

Help! How do I get all my data back? My life is over if I cannot access any of my business sites, emails, Paypal, Amazon accounts or anything.

I wish to re-install my Old Firefox Data to my restored Win 10 computer Firefox browser bookmarks. There was no link given to migrate this info held in our MS OneDrive folder (as listed on the Desktop).

Last year in February MS crashed my Chrome browser. I could not re-install that, but could download and install Firefox. Now the MS auto updates began to trashed our Internet Win 10 system in late December. Everyone is being herded into the train's automobile cars haulers so they can back us into a lake...

This is more of a suggestion than a question, unless there is a hidden feature that I was not able to locate.

I know that the Master password helps to make sure that my password is safe. It would be also be nice if the next release will prevent to open a website that has a "stay signed in" window.

I recently switched over to Firefox and for some reason there's just no way to adjust the volume on Twitter. It's either muted or full blast and I'd like to know how to bring back the little slider. I've tried what people posted on Reddit and neither the extension or the Tampermonkey script did anything. I don't know what else I can do.
