I have done a search on Amazon and Bing to find a maglite flashlight. Then I clear the the Firefox cache and cookies with all checkboxes checked. Then I login to Facebook and see the maglite flashlight being advertised right away.

Question: Why doesn't clearing the cache, cookies, and history stop Facebook from knowing my browsing history?!!

Thanks, Steve

Until recently, I was able to look at my bank account and also access videos on manflowyoga.com. However, I can no longer put in the info needed for my bank access without it getting stuck. I also click on video on manflowyoga and it plays for 1 second and then doesn't work anymore. Yesterday I got one of the videos to work, but then it didn't today. The vids work on Edge as does my bank account. I have had the same add-ons for months - unhook, adblocker ultimate, Blocktube options, privacy badger, ,decentalyse, leech blocker. I have tried going into troubleshoot mode, but the problem persists, I have emptied my cache and cookies -same problem.

I used to be able to save the current page as web page, HTML only and then open that page in Firefox. Now I can't. If I choose 'text' as file type, that is also unreadable. A possible hint: the file saved as HTML only has a Microsoft Edge icon.

Hello, after the new year, one particular page (the intranet of our company) does not open for me in firefox. It will open normally in Chrome and other browsers. But after entering the page in firefox, nothing happens, as if I didn't press enter/send and the previous content is still in the window. I completely uninstalled Firefox, but even after a new installation the problem was not solved. Where could the problem be? Thank you, Peter

I have a strange effect coming up for some months (and many FF versions) already, but maybe I am just too stupid?

Some websites ask you to allow notifications, and you can allow or deny the request. FF puts them onto a list that can be seen and edited within the settings. So far, so good.

But if I close FF and restart it later on, the list is empty again, so every of my fav webpages is asking me again and again. This is really getting annoying.

I don't use "private tabs" and I dont have enabled to clear history on closing the browser (I hope so, but I am not really sure, but I dont want any deletion).

What is causing the delete of the list and how can I prevent it???

CORS errors blocking a Custom SharePoint Web Part from communicating to the RSS Feed source to display on the SharePoint page ONLY on Firefox! Chrome and Edge displayed the web part contents but I got this CORS error with Firefox. My research has shown this is strict security settings from the RSS feed service provider but my company's non-technical staff insisted it was my web part that caused it.

Please inform me of any other way to make my web part display contents by ELIMINATING this Cors error on Firefox. Please see the attached image.

Under normal circumstances I can move back to the last page by alt+arrow or clicking the arrow icon. The moment I open "https://www.instagram.com" though this is no longer possible, the history of the tab seems to be erased. What mechanism is at work here and how can it be deactivated, blocked or avoided? _____ Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:108.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/108.0 Build 20230104165113

I have FIrefox v. 108+ as my default Windows 11 Pro browser. I want it to open in full screen by default.

I know that I can hit F11 to toggle programs to fullscreen but its a pain to have to click Firefox's expand button to use the browser.

Is there a browser config setting that will force it to open full screen by default. There's a Feb. 19, 2022, question in Support that doesn't provide an answer.

Dear great software engineers,

I find that border-width changes when a page is scaling. For example, initially, the border-width is set to be 1px, it would change to 0.666px when the page is scaled to 150%, and it would change to 2px when the page is scaled to 50%, and the strange case is, when the page is scaled to 200%, the border would restore to initial 1px. Further more, I also found that changing the scale of display in windows settings would also change the border-width.

Could you tell me the reason? Is there any standard about border-width?

I would be very appreciated for your feedback. Thank you very much. Grant

You guys drive me crazy! In the Help selection it states to add more quick links to FireFox to select the "Personalize" button. Where have you hidden the personalize button so I can add more Quick Links? Why make this so difficult. In the Open Application Menu the drop down screen should have the Personalized selection listed. Why hide this application under another application, example "Add-ons" or wherever you have put the Personalize selection. Grrrr..........................

Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at quickstart.cloudera:10001.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Firefox has stopped restoring the previous session when launched.

I have the relevant option checked in the settings and have tried deleting the sessionstore* files in the profile folder.

The only sessionstore files I could find were in the sessionstore backups folder with no "*sessionstore*" files within the main/profile folder itself.

This is on a machine running the abysmal windows 11
