In the "comments" section of a Yahoo article, a notification will appear that someone has replied to a comment I submitted previously. By clicking on that notification you are supposed to be returned to that article and directly to my comment and the subsequent replies to it. Firefox is returning me to the articles' comment section but not to my specific comment and any added replies.

Microsoft Edge DOES send me back to my specific comment. I cannot find anything in the settings for Firefox that would control this.

Hello,

I am experiencing an issue with HEVC hardware decoding in Firefox on Windows 10.

System information:

OS: Windows 10 (latest updates installed) Browser: Firefox ESR 128.8 GPU: (your GPU model) GPU driver version: (your driver version) Problem: In about:support under the "Media" section, I see that HEVC (H.265) hardware decoding is not supported, while on Windows 11 with the same hardware, it works correctly.

What I have tried:

Installed HEVC Video Extensions from the official Microsoft website. Enabled hardware decoding in about:config: media.hardware-video-decoding.enabled → true media.wmf.hevc.enabled → true Updated GPU drivers to the latest version. Checked HEVC support via FFmpeg – decoders are available. Expected result: Firefox should use HEVC hardware decoding on Windows 10, just like it does on Windows 11.

Actual result: HEVC is only supported in software mode, and hardware decoding is not working.

Could you please help me resolve this issue?

Thank you!

When I click on any of my Instagram photo posts, I only get the background transparent gray screen but no post photo enlargement with comment and 'insights" link section. It does work correctly on other users' accounts. So am I asking the right entity here or is it a Microsoft problem? Thank you.

So when i first updated to 137.0 tab groups were working fine, then one day i couldn't create any more. I had a previous tab group, but when i deleted it, there was no way to make another. I tried dragging tabs on top of each other, tried right clicking a tab to "Add Tab to New Group" but there wasn't an option. I updated to 137.0.1 to see if that would fix it, and it didn't. I then tried to uninstall and reinstall still no. I turned my computer off and then on again and also no.

I'd really appreciate any help with this because i'm kinda tearing my hair out trying to find out what changed.

in the last couple weeks, every time I go into Firefox my bookmarks and bookmark toolbar are scrambled. (all messed up and out of order). I have to keep restoring from a good save file. How do I stop this from happening? I have even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but that hasn't helped. I have imported the good bookmark file that I saved.

I can see them all, and well organized, in the "backstage", when I click on manage bookmarks. Can you help me get them on the home page?

I have an Office 365 account through work and I'm using Copilot frequently. In Firefox I have a pinned tab for Copilot.

In recent weeks I've run into issues where the Copilot page stays essentially blank, i.e. the message field to enter text does no longer appear. The Office Toolbar still appears and when I switch to other Office365 sites like OneDrive and Home they work just fine. The problem only exists with the Copilot page. Refreshing the page does not solve the problem.

I found a temporary work-around by clocking on the lock-button in the address bar and selecting "Clear cookies and site data...". After doing this and refreshing the page it works fine again, but only for a while (like maybe the rest of the day). I don't know exactly what makes it break, but it seems like I have to apply the work-around on a daily basis almost.

Additional Info: I've been using this setup for at least a year and the problem only appeared in the last few weeks. If I open Copilot in either Chrome or Edge I don't have this problem (but I also don't want to use Chrome or Edge).

Numerous sites, most recently Etsy, will not give me access. The message is always this or some variation: "We detected unusual activity from your device or network. Reasons may include: Rapid taps or clicks. JavaScript disabled or not working. Automated (bot) activity on your network (IP 71.217.57.171) Use of developer or inspection tools."

This happens even if I disable Ublock Origin. The only other extensions I have are 1Password, Zoom and Undo close tab. How do I fix this? The problem does not exist if I use a different browser. It is VERY frustrating!

I realize much of the issue with organizing bookmarks has to do with this ASSUS laptop. However in the past I used what MS provided when using a desktop, which was easier.

I could use a mouse, but maybe there is a good add-on to keep from dropping bookmarks into some unknown folder. This means I have to look for it in other folders. I did use a Dell laptop previously, but Dell has become very difficult to reach in the USA if not a corporate stateside entity.

Currently the the firefox nightly study, Carrot Potential Exposures (Nightly Test), has no description. (It says to be determined) I was wondering what this study does becouse I cant seem to find information on it. I think it was added in the last nightly update but maybe not; i may just have not noticed it.
