Firefox Support Forum

Hello,

On Windows chromium-based browsers, the links with linux-style urls : "/path/to/file" are expanded to "/<current device letter>/path/to/file" which can prove pretty handy.

Example: A local "D:\html\index.html" file declaring a '<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/file.js"></script>' will have the "src" expanded to "file:///D:/js/file.js".

Of course on this particular example, it would be easy to use relative paths but "absolute" paths can be useful when referencing shared common files (javascript, css, ...). This way, an html file can be tested locally (without a local server) before being deployed as-is on a server.

Unfortunately, on Firefox there seems to be no such mechanism, unless I have missed something...

Is there any plan to add such a feature?

I accidently clicked "forget about this site" to a site i didn't want to and now everything i ever visited on the site got deleted from my history. How can i bring back and be able to see what i visited on the site in my history again ?

I just started getting "403 Forbidden" when trying to access dexterlive.com from Firefox running on a Windows 7 PC. It's been working for the last 5 years. I tried with Chrome. It works fine. It also works fine on Firefox running on my Android phone. What's happened to Firefox on the PC?

Hello friends. For some time now, my browser has been constantly redirecting me to the following site: https://winbigdrip.life/?u=63fkp0n&o=uh7pmz8 I have done all the steps mentioned on the internet completely. But my problem is not solved yet. The interesting thing is that when I sync my Firefox account on other devices. Those devices also have the same problem. please guide me.

hallo Firefox-Team,

with Firefox 115.1.0esr I can not longer insert Text via Copy&paste into Whatsapp-Web as before (Version 2.2334.12) https://web.whatsapp.com/

seems that it's not a Whatsapp-Problem because e.g. with Opera there is no Problem. i already logged of and on freshly connected with Whatsapp but still no copy & paste (no Ctrl-V and also not right mouse paste). Drag and drop of files is not affected and still works fine.

is this a bug or are there any settings that have changed? especially for long links a copy and paste function is really useful.

Many thanks for looking in6o this yours dasepp1

Why Firefox quit showing the audio? It was working fine until just recently!

For example: These pages has a drop down audio arrow at the top. Not any more. Why? https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/2022241

Hello! This is not really a question ... more a comment. This morning when I opened my WIN 7 HOME tower PC, and opened FIREFOX, I saw the notice that this latest release is the latest for WIN 7. That's fine, but I wish to tell you something about WIN 7 PRO & MICROSOFT. Evidently, there is some major user of WIN 7 PRO who has demanded that MICROSOFT continue to support this version. I have two H-P laptops, which I use for Ladder programming. Both are loaded with WIN 7 PRO, and both receive periodic updates from MICROSOFT. So, it would seem that ALL support for these older releases of Windows has not ended. I am in the process of moving all my files & applications from this WIN 7 HOME PC to my WIN 10 tower PC. THANK YOU. robert herold [removed emails from public]

P.S. Had no problem porting the FIREFOX data to the 10, but had a lot of problems doing the same for THUNDERBIRD on this PC to the 10, despite getting assistance from your tech people.

When are you going to issue a fix for Version 115.01. It crashes constantly on Windows 7 or Windows 10. I just tried to do a 5 paragraph post and just as I was about ti hit ENTER to post it - CRASH! It's been crashing all day on me on several computers, Win 10 or Win 7. And some of these have few if any Extensions! Please fis thsi ASAP!

Was having troubles accessing tinkercad.com. Updated to Firefox 114.0.2 on win 7 64 pro. Can now access website but when I export a file from there, and try to open it from downloads, windows explorer gives error "not responding" when I choose restart the program, the file opens. This did not happen until upgraded firefox. And it did not happen in EDGE. I have system restored, and went back to the site not responding. updated fire fox again, and it keeps happening.

My win 7 works fine, and no, I do not want to update windows on this computer. thank you for your help.

While writing this first time Firefox crashed. Win 7, ver 115.0.1 . I've reported multiple crashes lately and asked for response. Firefox causing high CPU. No response from them. Help

Hello moz://a,

I trust that this finds you in good faith,

My name is Kyle Santowski, I got dismissed from work in December and started focusing my attention on computers and the understanding thereof. I purchased the domain heartofstoneclothing.com using my Samsung A21s and my credit card.

I was visiting a friend at the time who offered the use of his computer to me as a kind gesture. I have been residing on the friends property since January and have been using that device up until recently. With my provident fund I purchased a laptop and have been using it since to recover most of my work.

My work got intercepted the day ICANN's 60 day holding period was over, since it wasn't my computer I had no say over it. In South Africa we have a problem with consistent power outages known as load shedding, long story short; I woke up from an extended nap to watch my work get taken and redirected.

I have had major 4 major confrontations with my friend, Gary, whether or not he was snooping through my files. Ive been lied to in my face 4 times, been sworn at, had pots and pans thrown at me for falsely accusing him. I let it go due to alternate accommodation difficulties. At the risk of losing my work completely I have allowed friend to run around the part my browser he gained access to. I might have unknowingly given it up, or at least part of it since it was not my computer.

In these altercations I have been chased away, but i could not leave my work on that computer. Not having access to an external hard drive and no time I mass dumped everything anywhere i could find space; My OneDrive, GoogleDrive, Dropbox. At the time i had just came across MDN after working on Firefox for the first time and exploring its glories.

I have bookmarks that don't belong to me in my bookmarks toolbar, there is personal information that is not mine getting sent to me and I have had to manage this person and his websites while sacrificing my own. I'm not entirely sure how to separate our work without, because the bookmarks i delete reappear every time and I no longer wish to use the old device.

I herewith kindly ask that i could receive some assistance with the issue, this situation has messed my brain up for months and I finally have an understanding of what i need to do, but I am quite new to working with software and can't afford to let it go askew.

Technical support/customer service and hordes of other baseline staff, supervisors and managers at the actual company have been contacted about this numerous times, however they only have 3 abilities 1 Research the Web/keyword a knowledgebase 2 Recite prerecorded A) answers to frequently asked questions B) explanations of company policy 3 Redirect to other departments admin levels agencies or companies all of which have the same 3 abilities so what some volunteers can do that are not engineers and not employees I don't know.

Maybe this is one reason why everybody is migrating to Chrome - that and the increasing number of websites that don't function in Firefox anymore regardless of the build.

This creates numerous stalemates all looping one back over the other over the other over the other like electrons in an atom and no resolution is forthcoming. Maybe this is why everybody is migrating to Chrome. That and so many websites don't work on Firefox anymore.

Right clicking to bring up the Developer Panel to e g erase i.e. paywalls and other similar annoyances and impediments to browsing (especially when they slow down and or crash the computer) however now the developer panel type and size is so huge you can't use it for the same purpose.

As stated above, the three normally recommended solutions have produced no results.

Windows 7 here due to our business depending on a large number of programs that i) have not been rewritten for Windows 10 ii) the Windows 7 versions don't run on Windows 10 including in a Windows 7 shell so the common redirect to upgrading the OS is not an option at this time.

In the past I had no problem connecting to Rumble.com bu for the last day or three I cant enter the rumble website. Please help see images attached

Thanks Eddie Essendrup
