I always use Firefox Private Window when I go on the Internet. Today, while I was on Fidelity.com, I was suddenly logged out. When I tried to go back to Fidelity.com using Firefox/Private Window, a dialog box on Microsoft Edge appeared asking me to: "Choice: #1 Do you want to make Firefox to be your default" "Choice: #2 Not Now". Which ever I choice I choose, Microsoft Edge will appear with the two above choices. This has been happening repeatedly for several minutes now, so I tried to reach Firefox Support.

My main problem is I cannot access Firefox / Private Window anymore since I was suddenly logged out of Fidelity.com.

Would you please fix this problem. Also, I already selected Firefox to be my default browser long time ago. Why am I being this question every time I go on the internet using Firefox?

Firefox is very slow/unable to load specific pages after laptop reset

Hi hi, I just did a complete reset to factory settings of my laptop (MSI), and a wipe of my hard drives too. After reinstalling Firefox (literally the first thing I did after setting up windows), it runs more slowly than before the reset (even for a basic search on Google/Duckduckgo). I am also unable to load any pages under the domain discussions.unity.com : the page loads forever, it's impossible to click on anything (even the hovering styles don't work), and I get a banner at the top of the screen that says "This page is slowing down Firefox. To speed up your browser, stop this page.". Also the memory usage for this page skyrockets (gone up to 4000MB??). I've disabled the 2 extensions I have (Dark Reader and Adblock Plus), restarted Firefox, restarted the computer, cleared the cache, even turned off the mozilla syncing, nothing worked. Any idea on what could be happening here? It's the first time in using Firefox for over 15 years that I've seen this happened.

Thank you for your time and attention <3

I am running an iMac that is about eight years old.This afternoon my Firefox browser was taken over by a "warning" from "MacOS security center" that I should go to THEIR macOS support site to get my system unfrozen. The number they give is 1-877-xxx-xxxx. I cannot get this intruder to go away, even by restarting the computer.

Firefox on macOS loads, opening all windows open at last Quit; then closes all windows; fails to display the window selected from menu

MacOS Sequoia 15.7.7; Firefox 141.0.2

The "one sentence" in the heading states the problem. I am unable to use Firefox. Using Safari to make this post.

Firefox loads. It opens windows (I had fourteen open when I last used it successfully; I have many, many tabs). Then it removes each window from the screen. Firefox is in the Menu bar, but no windows are displayed. The windows still show in the list when selecting Window in the menu bar. Selecting a window in that list has no visible effect. File>New Window opens a new window, which works as expected. With one new window open, File>New Window opens a second.

Typing a few characters in the address bar opens a dropdown with a list of tabs, each with the affordance, Switch to Tab. Clicking on one takes down the list but does not open a window.

I would like, for a start, instructions on how to use Firefox starting afresh with no windows. First: having set aside the data that causes this problem. I suppose that might be simply a new profile. But would like instructions from a person interested in pursuing the problem with me while I continue with the rest of my life.

I'm willing to delete some data from the failing profile, is there is reason to do that, but would like to preserve at least a list of the URLs of the tabs of the windows. Or to learn how to see those in the profile data.

I see four profiles:

  <garble>.default-<13 digit integer>  Date Modified: Today  2.2 GB
  <garble>.Default Profile   Date Modified: Last June   24.6 MB
  <garble>.default-release-1   Date Modified: Last June, five minutes later  93.2 MB
  <shorter garble>.default-release   Date Modified: 2021   13.4 MB

It has been my practice with Firefox and Thunderbird to install and then to create a new named profile for use. But, as you see on the first line above, I did not assign a meaningful name.

If requested, I will post again from a new Firefox window, selecting Share Data.

Thanks in advance.

Hi.

I have a problem with minimizing the Firefox window on a MacBook (M1, 2020, Tahoe26, FF 141.0.2 (aarch64). After launching the browser, using Command+M for the first time works and the window moves to the taskbar normally. When the FF window returns, the shortcut stops working and the Command+M Thumbnail option becomes grayed out. It doesn't matter if FF is in fullscreen mode or not - the shortcut only works the first time. ____________ Cześć. Problem dotyczy minimalizowania okna Firefox na MacBook (M1, 2020, Tahoe26, FF 141.0.2 (aarch64). Po uruchomieniu przeglądarki, za pierwszym razem użyciu Command+M skrót działa i okno normalnie przechodzi do paska. Po powrocie okna FF, skrót przestaje działać, a opcja Miniaturka Command M staje się nieaktywna. Nie ma znaczenia, czy FF jest w trybie pełnoekranowym, czy nie - skrót działa tylko pierwszy raz.
