Every time I close out of Firefox and then later, reopen Firefox, it restores my previous session.

This is despite my settings being like so:

And my "about: config" set like so:

What can be done so that, after closing Firefox, it does *NOT* restore my old session when I decide to open Firefox again?

I have a password stored for an account in FF, and I typed it wrong and accidentally clicked Update on the prompt to update the password. Is there a way to view the old password? I assume I'm stuck but figured it was worth a shot.

Cannot access banking website - get page that is all type-written down the left side, credit card site says I need to up date my browser, computer says it is up to date; downloaded and reinstalled firefox - no change i don't know what to do next

I have an issue with YouTube where videos are consistently "skipping" like a record. I have a fast internet connection, I have quit and restarted Firefox, and I have cleared my cache in attempts to fix the issue. I only noticed it about a week ago.

I've been trying to get a video to play for over a day now, drm-controlled content is checked but firefox won't install the widevine plugin, it just keeps saying that it will install shortly. I even deleted the cache in hopes to fix the problem, but it did nothing. What can I do to fix this? Also, and I don't know if this is a related problem, some websites just don't show up. It will say they are loaded but all I get is a blank screen (dailymotion and instagram so far).

some firefox has kept my username and password for my bank.

i go to that page and they are both prefilled. I have tried to use the password manager to remove them but failed. I did find an entry and clicked to remove it but it still does it.

How can I get this out of the system? Pretty serious, eh?

And it is firefox, not cookies. I have a cookie manager and there's no cookies for the site.

Ever since today, firefox has been very slow with youtube, and I noticed it's been having a memory leak. Every time I load a video on there ram usage spikes by about 1 gb, then gradually increases over time (It never goes down). Also cpu usage when loading a page is really high (almost 100% usage). How do I fix this? I tried all the solutions google had to offer but nothing worked. Never had any problem like this for over the 10 years I've been using firefox

I saved a lot of pages using the option "Save Page As", mostly Reddit posts. The problem is, each time I try to open one of these HTM/HTML files they just don't load properly. The page loads properly for a split second and then the "body" of the page (by body I mean the main part where the content is) dissapears.

At the beginning I thought it was a Reddit problem, but I tried with different sites and it's always the same result or even worse. I opened these HTM/HTML files with different browsers and the result is also the same. In that moment I was using something lower than Firefox 105.0.0, now I'm using 105.0.2.

I would like to make this files work, but if that isn't possible, I'd like to extract the URL from this files so I can still read them and delete them later, but I need a massive way to extract these URL because I have over 1000 of these files. Thanks in advance.

Hi. So in desktop OpenGL it is totally valid to write the following in order to flip the frame vertically into dst buffer:

 glBlitFramebuffer(0, h, w, 0, 0, 0, w, h, GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, GL_NEAREST));

In WebGL if I do this:

gl.blitFramebuffer(0, h,w,0 , 0, 0, w, h, gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, gl.NEAREST);

I am getting WebGL warning: blitFramebuffer: If the source is multisampled, then the source and dest regions must match exactly.

Similar error is reported in Chrome.

When I am looking into the related C++ code I can see this:

        if (dstX0 != srcX0 ||
           dstX1 != srcX1 ||
           dstY0 != srcY0 ||
           dstY1 != srcY1)
       {
           webgl->ErrorInvalidOperation("%s: If the source is multisampled, then the"
                                        " source and dest regions must match exactly.",
                                        funcName);
           return;
       }

I am not sure why this restriction has been imposed. GLES2/3 support this kind of dimensions setup with no errors. Can someone explain the reason behind this? And if it is a bug/missed functionality, where should it be reported?

Hello guys, I'm trying to read information from a pdf, it works fine. But when I send the same code to the add-on, it returns Error: Permission denied to access property "autoAllocateChunkSize". This leads me to believe it's some specific permission in manifest.json.

I would like help on what permission should I include for it to work.

I've installed Firefox 105.0.3 on a machine with a fresh installation of Windows. I've left the machine running overnight. The next morning, Firefox stops loading pages. When I check C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox, I can see that Firefox.exe has a file date of July, instead of October: all the files in this folder are now for version 102 instead of 105. This has happened several times in a row now. What could be causing this problem?

I just signed up for Mail.com and created a new email account there. When I first used it, I received a message (not an email) that I am not using the most current Firefox, and I need to download the most current Firefox. However, Firefox's update function says I am current. Now, I am concerned that Mail.com is not reliable or safe, although it is promoted by Firefox. Can you clear this up?

This is more of an FYI, and it is probably not going to matter to you, but I feel the need to say it.

I have been a Firefox user for as long as I can remember. Until 2014 I worked in a school district and they were having problems with Explorer, so I talked them into trying Firefox for their computer class. They were thrilled with the results.

For the past year or so I have tried everything I could find to fix the sluggishness of this browser on my laptop, which I have had for 2.5 years. It worked fine in the beginning, but has gotten ridiculously slow. I understand the explanation of the multiple instances found in Task Manager, but I cannot, for my sanity, continue to use this program. Currently Task Manager shows 6 for Firefox and I am writing this in Chrome, which has 8 in Task Manager, and is working wonderfully.

I no longer have the time or patience to deal with this. Maybe, if I see more comments regarding the fix for this, I will return to Firefox. But until then, goodbye.

i have a login to Harris county /toll Road Authority. A few weeks ago, it quit loading. When I click the bookmark, the tab shows motion, but after that, only a blank screen. I have tried the same web site on MS Edge, and it loads without a problem. Tried settings change to no proxy, adding the login to exceptions - no change, it still loads a blank screen. What is going on?

Having just 1 tab open -- my gmail -- firefox is taking nearly 1GB of memory. Opening an empty tab pushes to memory used over 1GB. Also there are 12 listed tabs in the Task Manager.

I already took multiple steps. Cleared cache and cookies. Put in troubleshoot mode and refreshed. Minimized memory usage via about:memory.

Please help.
