Does somebody know how to disable firefox to start in the last used workspace? I use Firefox under Linux in a Window Manager and defined a rule that should put firefox in a specific workspace but in this case firefox remembers its last used workspace and does not 'obey' the set rule...

Hi - running Firefox on two machines, syncing across both, and all settings and add-ons are the same. On Win10 desktop, closing Firefox leaves all cookies and passwords intact for next session. On Win11 laptop, closing Firefox deletes all cookies, passwords, and signs me out from Mozilla. Have tried rename/replace of cookies.sqlite I stress, all settings are the same everywhere, and the same add-ons and extensions on both machines. Antivirus is Avast Premium Security, add-ons are: Adblock Adblocker Ultimate DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials Ghostery Privacy Badger uBlock Origin Having to reload passwords and sign in to everything on each session on the laptop is driving me nuts.

For the last few days, every time i open Firefox, I am asked to sign in to my frequently used Applications (Facebook, Google, X, YouTube etc). As these are all two-factor processes this is becoming very wearisome.

I always ask to "trust" the browser and i have tried refreshing Firefox, but as soon as I close down Firexox and try to re-open it i get faced with the same issue every time.

Help- I really don't want to change browsers, but this is driving me nuts.

Thanks to anyone who can help.

I am at a loss. I have disabled popup blocking and all installed extensions that have the ability to block popups while trying to print coupons from Qples (I'm trying to print a coupon for Angel Soft toilet paper). I have deliberately placed their domain https://offer.qpleshq.com in the ALLOW list for popups. I have changed every setting I can see to ALLOW that domain access to just about everything. But I can't make popups work. I haven't had any luck in Edge either (and Edge uses Chrome as a framework so anything that doesn't work in Edge is unlikely to work in Chrome). I even did the ctrl-I trick and ALLOWed every setting it showed for that page specifically. I cleared its cache/cookies from the ctrl-I menu and reloaded. Every single time I reload the page, it gives me the option to print (which I want to be able to do) or "save" (which just means emailing you a link to the same print page). If I tell it to print, I get an overlay that reminds me to disable my popup blockers (at which point I internally scream "but I have disabled every d*mn popup blocker I can find". Is there some hidden/secret setting I'm missing here? I don't know where else to look, and I would think enabling wanted popups would be a possibility in an up-to-date browser (version 129.0, literally updated minutes ago). Thanks for any advice.

With Firefox 129, I am unable to login "hellopoetry.com". After login attempt, I see:

"Error 403: CSRF verification failure...". 

See image for complete error message. This is new with version 129.

I am using Firefox for Windows (and Android and IOS) on multiple machines. Copy to clipboard works fine on all platforms except on Microsoft Surface 5 laptop running Firefox 128 (and now 129). I have tried re-installing, re-installing from MS store, refreshing, starting in troubleshooting mode, refreshing, deleting all user profile data and create a new profile etc. with no joy.

I can select text from the address bar, or the search bar, or from within a website; the option is there to copy (I tested CTRL-C, as well as right click and choose copy), but nothing is actually getting copied to the clipboard.

Any help would be appreciated.

On Firefox for Windows the touch and pen logic is a mess. When I hover over something with the pen or scroll using touch, Firefox seems to make both elements hover and triggers even JavaScript related code at very high rate. These 2 elements are where the real mouse/cursor is on the screen and where the currently touching or hovering over element is. For example rest your mouse on the YouTube HTML5 player, then use a pen to hover over the browsers close button or even just something else on the web page like the like button. This will ramp up the CPU and make both the player and the like button your are hovering flicker between ::hover and ::normal. This will also call lot's of instances of these related events in the website's JavaScript. Another semi-related issue is when using the F12 developer tools in "Device Simulation" mode, It's impossible to for some reason because Firefox fakes real touch injections into the OS (and they show up as if I touched the screen by the OS) which cancels the precision touchpad input movement until I lift my finger from the touchpad. This is specifically a "Windows Precision Touchpad" issue, and There is no known fix to this apart from not using a such a touchpad... On old 10+ year old laptops with PS/2 or proprietary Touchpads that report themselves as a normal Mouse this issue won't occour but Firefox will still input system-wide touch input. As a developer myself this seems very silly because you own the source code and could solve this way more elegantly than asking the OS to input Touch events... Let me know if you need anything else, and point me out where the source for the input (specifically for touch and pen) live so I can take a look at it and make some improvements. Thanks

Videos won't play in Firefox, fine in other browsers. Here is the site I wanted to view below.

On that piece of crap Windows 11 I keep getting the "Can't get your tabs back". I get it EVERY TIME I open firefox. I have uninstalled (several times), deleted directories and tried the "Refresh Firefox" and nothing works. I do not have this issue on any of my Linux computers. I only have a few programs left that I need Windows for so I guess I need to look at dual booting this computer.

Is that ANY way to do a clean install of firefox? I keep getting the you have installed firefox before message when I try to reinstall. I really really really don't want to have to do a clean install of windows to try to fix this.

I develop wordpress websites on FF Dev Ed on a Mac running macOS12.7.4. This current problem is one I've never seen before.

• In a regular window of FFDE, dropdown items on the menu, don't drop down.
• A youtube video, visible in the source and in the editor, doesn't display on the page.
• A gallery of logos doesn't appear on the page, though it does in the editor and the editor's preview.

These problems DON'T APPEAR

• in a private window,
• in vanilla Firefox,
• in another user account, using FFDE
• on other websites, using FFDE
• in other browsers,
• on other computers, using FFDE

In all those cases, site works perfectly. Actions:

• refreshed the page (dozens of times),
• cleared the site cache, the browser cache (Managed the data AND cleared the data)
• turned off all extensions,
• put the browser in troubleshooting mode,

all with no change. Although I don't think anyone else will see the problem, the site is https://homeopathyschool.org What am I missing?

Import settings from Firefox on my Macbook Air that died into the Firefox now installed on my new Macbook Air. I'm trying to import bookmarks from my Firefox that was on my old computer into the Firefox I'm running to send you this query. I can only find a function to import from Safari. I want to import from Firefox! Thanks.

I am trying to watch a movie on Criterion Collection, this has not happened before, but now I am getting a message that says I have to use a supported browser. I always use Firefox and I am using the latest version which has just updated. Is this a problem with Criterion not being up to speed on the update? Or is there another issue causing this problem?
