For the last couple of days, the address bar on the web apps that I've installed to my taskbar has been shrunk to about a third its usual length. I don't have flexible space put anywhere on my toolbar, and the problem is only on the sites I've put in the taskbar, not in regular browser windows. Is there a way to fix it, and get it back so it reaches all the way to the extension icons?

I'm using Firefox 147.0.1 on Windows 11, Version 25H2, Build 26200.7623, if that helps

I use macbook and newest Firefox 147.0.1 and it thinks im in Washington DC not West Palm Beach. I get DC maps, DC weather and DC info for generic searches. I did use a vpn a few months ago, but its off and also its toggled off in Location Services. I tried 100 different suggestions made by google gemini but nothing works. Chrome shows the right location. I use wifi and an ISP search says West Palm Beach as well. Help! Dont make me swtich to Chrome.

After running updates and restarting my computer, I am no longer able to open my common websites used frequently. I don't know how to fix this problem. The search bar runs until it times out.

Since accidentally deleting my current firefox profile, I have been experiencing a multitude of problems: Firstly, if it's possible to recover my profile file, that would fix all my problems. I currently have disk drill installed on my computer, so if there's any way to recover it please let me know. If that isn't possible, there are a few issues: 1: the top 3 buttons being shifted to the right (image 1 is what it looks like now, image 2 is what it used to be) 2: the color of the toolbar affected how other websites look(image 3) 3: all extensions being removed, though this was probably due to the deletion of the profiles

So I have two Google accounts, let's call them Antelope and Bear. Antelope is my "main" account, but I use Bear for a lot of things too, which includes Gemini. So, if I want to use the Gemini chatbot option on Firefox's sidebar, it would make the most sense to use it under my Bear account, since that way I can access my previous chats and all that. However, when I open the Gemini chatbot, it automatically logs me in as Antelope. And when I click on the account's profile picture to swap to Bear, it instead opens the Gemini site on a new tab, in which I am indeed logged in as Bear, but the sidebar remains stuck on the Antelope account. I've tried the "reload Gemini" option, restarting Firefox, and clearing the cache, but nothing works. I think I could fix it by logging out of both accounts, then logging in only as Bear, letting the sidebar "grab" that account, and then logging in as Antelope, but I wanted to know if there's an easier/cleaner way to go about it. Thank you in advance.

Here is the current situation.

Firefox is consistently crashing in Windows 11, either a tab crash or the application itself. I'm not sure how to resolve it at this point. It was sufficiently bad that at first I assumed this was a problem with my Windows 11 installation, and did a complete reinstall of the OS followed by a fresh install of Firefox.

That did not resolve the problem. Firefox is still crashing.

I completely replaced the SSD assuming there was some kind of read/write problem between it and Firefox, did a clean install of Win11 and Firefox, and instead of porting my profile ported only my bookmarks and passwords into a new profile.

It's still happening. I don't know what to do at this point.

My geeksquad agent dumped me here. They were not able to fix the issue. My tools are not all on the bar, my book marks are not all here. They got some. There was a message that some other application was using my firefox and my tools and bookmarks wouldn't work. I am no tech person. I just want things back like they were and to know why this happened and I don't want it to happen again. Please help.

I accidentally messed it up when trying to remove the desktop icon because I already set Firefox in my taskbar. Now I get an unfamiliar screen and my settings, including bookmarks, are gone. Is it possible to set my laptop to undo changes made today?

Hello community, I have many history items from forms that I want delete, I can delete formhistory.sqlite from Firefox profile in AppData, but after while all unwanted items are back downloaded from Firefox Account (cloud). Is it possible somehow delete those file in Firefox Account too?

today I tried using a link from discord to go to a site. a window I was unfamiliar with stating it was firefox told me to pick a profile. I had 2 at that point but I saw none at that point. I ignored it and did nothing. I restarted my computer later on after a file browser issue and when I tried to find my profiles and my last session I found nothing. my entire fire fox account has been wiped and I only have a single profile in my app data thats onlder than 2026. I have no idea whats happened.

Hi,

Since last week I am unable to properly use some websites that are failing due to CORS requests, but they were working before. Some examples are es.webuy.com or a local Jellyfin instance. After trying to enable/disable some settings that I thought could be related to the problem, like security levels, I ended up creating a new profile. In this new profile everything works, but as soon as I synchronize my Mozilla account, then these websites start failing again with CORS requests errors.

Any idea about what setting might it be the one causing problems? Or any idea about how can I debug/troubleshoot it myself?

Thanks!

Using the back arrow key at the top left of the screen is crucial to my daily work. The Alt+Back Arrow key as suggested in your new "short cuts" is not working. The pull down of history shows my Corporate name, which is no help to finding the item I was just working on. How can having this simple function of clicking on the back arrow key be brought back as not having it at this time, makes me start the process of searching all over again, which is time consuming and simply makes no sense.

Thank you

I want to achieve windowed functionality of Firefox's F11 fullscreen mode, where there's no window borders nor tab/url bar, which pops in on hover. Having every pixel actually be web space is just preferable to me. This used to be possible in old Firefox versions simply by resizing a fullscreened FF window using a resizer extension or window manager (such as seen here, with version 55.0.3: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1klHdUHiKtLVITmrQnul8O1zF32l-Uz6c/view). At some point, something must have changed in FF's fullscreen API because it no longer responds to any of this.

I'm willing to pay anyone savvy enough to come up with a solution. Ideally by figuring out how to again be able to simply resize F11 windows. Note: "full-screen-api.ignore-widgets" isn't cutting it, there will still be a window border and the tab/url bar won't automatically pop up.

Cheers.

from the last update, I have been unable to print any emails from either my gmail or webmail accounts. I cannot find any answers on line. Please can I get some suggestions? Thank you

Lorsque j'essaie d'enregistrer une page dans un onglet, cliquer sur l'icône en forme d'étoile crée bien le lien, mais il s'affiche dans je ne sais quel onglet !!!. Il faut pourvoir le retrouver pour le mettre à la bonne place !!! Je souhaiterais pouvoir enregistrer la page où je le souhaite et créer un nouvel onglet au besoin.

When I try to save a page to a tab, clicking the star icon creates the link, but it opens in some unknown tab! I have to find it to put it in the right place! I would like to be able to save the page wherever I want and create a new tab if needed.

I've been annoyed recently to see the Firefox symbol on both my Desktop and in the taskbar and finding that there are two in the taskbar when I open one. The bottom line is that I seem to have completely obliterated Firefox as I'd had it set up! Can I restore my Firefox settings to where they were yesterday?

This problem just started with the latest version of Firefox that opens with two profiles. It worked for a short time and then failed. Firefox will not open if I choose the default profile. I can open Firefox if I choose Profile #2, but it has none of the history of the default profile. I lose all of my extensions, history, bookmarks - everything.

How can I get back to where I was yesterday? (Note: I'm just a user, not a computer geek, and don't understand the buzzwords or technospeak. I can follow clear instructions like copy, delete, rename, etc.)

I'm using an HP laptop with Windows 11.
