XUL Runner platform version 129.01 is not compatible with 129.0 miniversion 129.0 maxversion 129.0 When this happened at first I did not have the use of Firefox. I then went to Firefox and down downloaded Firefox and started over. Then I went to go to my bookmarks and could not find them, bummer. Now I still get this XUL Runner message ??????? email guybrochu@yahoo.com

I need to get the first date I accessed a page via link. In the browser history that date is displayed however when I click on that link again, the date gets updated to the current time. This destroys the original access date. Is it somehow possible to get a real history about each time an URL was visited?

Unable to open multiple new tabs from address bar

So, I'm switching from Chrome and there's this one thing I can't seem to be able to replicate in firefox.

When I start my day I usually open several tabs from different pages of the same website. In Chrome, I would do that by: -typing the name of the website in my address bar -all the pages I frequently visited in that website show in my suggestions -I middlemouse-click all of them, one after the other -this opens one new tab for all of them -I then switch to those tabs and browse them

However, replicating this in firefox seems impossible. When middle-mouse-clicking the 1st link, I would have my window forcibly switch to it, not letting me open the other tabs without changing tabs again. Recently I learned I can avoid this forced switch by middle-mouse-clicking the URL on my address bar while holding shift, which is great! . . . Except it still closes my address bar, not letting me click the other ones without having to type the website's name in it again.

I don't mind holding shift (though I wish I didn't have to) but I really just want to middle mouse click multiple links in my address' suggestion bar and open them in succession, without shifting back to it after each time.

I am trying to use the tree style tree expansion for Firefox. When I install the tab bar appears at left side as it should, BUT the tab bar appears at the top too. I understand it has to do with the userChrome.css: Questions: 1. The css file is supposed to be created in this folder: C:\Users\jssch\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ 6p6hqx7v.App1d96b2329ff34563bd901f480a66632f\storage\permanent\chrome I that the correct location customized for my pc. 2. Could you supply the correct code for the css file. I am assuming I can use Notepad++ to create the file.

Thank you for your assistance. My email is jsschwab2002@gmail.com

I have been using Firefox as my primary browser in Windows and Linux Mint for many years, and I have always found it to work when other browsers would not. Recently (last few months) functions in Ancestry.com stopped working. I thought that the problems were within the Ancestry system, and getting help within Ancestry was very difficult. I finally got a help chat session a short time ago and learned that everything in Ancestry should work using the Chrome browser. Very reluctantly, I loaded the Chrome browser on one of my Windows 11 computers, and suddenly all of the functions within Ancestry worked properly. I sincerely hope that FIrefox will soon resume being fully functional with Ancestry.com.

I don't know who at firefox doesn't understand the point of fullscreen, but the address bar continues to pop up when the mouse reaches the top of the screen and there is no setting to turn this off. It is a comically incompetent choice. No, the chrome folder or extensions don't work. Might just switch back to chrome as this is a pattern with firefox's choices.

When trying to sign into a sweepstakes like HGTV Sweepstakes, the website will not show the "Fill-in the Blank" area to insert my email address. This happens in all the sweepstakes that I try to enter. If I use Microsoft Edge, the Fill-In Blank is there, but not when I use Firefox. It will work on my laptop in Firefox, but not on my desktop.
