Firefox Support Forum

I added an Add-On to try it called [by Firefox by Mozilla Firefox] Notes by Firefox by Mozilla Firefox which I have since removed as the Add-On has corrupted my Bookmarks. When I click 'Show Sidebars' my Bookmarks don't show (thought they are there) but it's as though the font is white making it impossible to see them.

If I click Bookmarks I can see them and/or when I click on Manage Bookmarks that option opens and I can see all my Bookmarks. This only happened after I added "Notes by Firefox by Mozilla Firefox" Add-On. I was thinking there could be possibility it could have been caused by changing the appearance to Dark Mode, (for example Facebook or Twitter, etc).

There must be a better fix then to refresh / restore Firefox to its default settings as I have about 90 Tabs Open

Is there a way you can make tabs pop into a separate window when dragged out of the top bar (Chrome does this by default, it's very useful for dragging specific tabs to 2nd monitor)

I logged into my Firefox account on a public computer, however, when I logged off, all of my passwords, open tabs and bookmarks are still showing up on the Firefox browser on this public computer.

Nothing I have tried to remove it from this public computer has worked.

I have tried the following:

• logged off of my Firefox profile from this public computer
• unsync from this computer, sync is now off and disabled.
• Clear ALL history, including cookies, cache, active logins, search....
• Restarted this public computer several times, including a complete shut down.

And none of it has worked. Currently, when anyone opens Firefox on this public computer, all of my saved tabs will open, even though I'm logged off and unsynced. Also, if anyone goes to Firefox settings on this computer, they will be able to see ALL of my saved passwords on my Firefox account, also, even though I'm logged off and unsynced.

Please help. I need to remove my Firefox account from this public computer without deleting it off my personal laptop.

Thank you.

Today I have noticed I was using an adblock extension, which is not in the Firefox store anymore. After further inspection I have noticed I was not using the original uBlock Origin but some sort of a clone which had a very similar logo and practically the same name. I have removed that extension from the browser and now I have uBlock Origin, however, I wonder if any data was stolen while using it (passwords, personal names, credit card information, etc.).

My question is, is there any history stored locally, where I could see what permission, I gave to the clone version of uBlock Origin? At this point I don't even know the specific name of that add-on, is it possible to at least get the name? That way I would look up what I was using.

Also, are there any known scams, where uBlock Origin clone was in the Firefox store and it gathered personal data? So far I am familiar with the fake ad blocking extensions that was “cookie stuffing,” and used that for an ad fraud scheme.

Thank you for your time and help.

Dear sir ,

My firefox browser keeps crashing 7-10 times everyday . Sometimes it forces me to reset firefox then login back to my google accounts and extensions . It is very frustrating to login everyday specially google accounts as it requires 2-Step verification .

I feel nostalgic using firefox because I have been using firefox since my childhood started from 10 years ago when I first start browsing in the internet . I have not moved to any other browsers ever since . It might found to be a bit funny that I grew some emotions using this great browser and I believe the issue can be fixed .

If the crashing issue is not fixed then I am afraid that I may move to using other browsers and that looks a lot easier than facing the issue .

I am using firefox for windows on a 64bit windows 11 pro . System info screenshot will be added with this report . Please consider my situation in a bit serious matter and hopefully I will get your response asap .

I am using pihole and i've learned that firefox ignores it.

Supposedly, because it has DNS OVER HTTPS enabled by default.

So i disabled it, and it still doesn't work ( ignores DNS settings and loads websites that are blacklisted in my pihole - only firefox does this, chrome and edge dont have this problem )

I've set it to my pihole server - and it still works.

I've set it to CUSTOM and put in a 0.0.0.0 as IP and IT STILL WORKS

how???

i am just trying to use pihole but i can't comprehend why would a browser ignore all these settings ...

how do i make it work?

thanks.

I was trying to move it and I accidentally deleted it. I would like to reinstall it. I cannot seem to find the right phrase to find it on your sight and do a reinstall. If you would be so kind to point me in the right direction,I would be most grateful. Little updates like this is why I have remained a loyal fan since the Netscape Navigator days.

Thank you for your time.

[email removed from public]

my gmail account and it's corresponding mail that I have linked to my firefox account is currently overflown with data. due to my place of residence Im locked from purchasing additional data for that account's google disk, and therefore can not receive any emails. If possible, I would like to verify my account by any other means, or use any other of my mail addresses to receive verification email to my account. To add to the context the whole problem occured after I reinstalled my OS on my PC. I synced my account, saved what data I remembered to, but forgot about my linked mail inability to, well, receive emails. Any help would be really appreciated

So, I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I recently tried setting up XEMU and that had some display UI issues for me. I don't know if that has anything to do with it but after I tried setting it up all the text on Firefox is too big. The toolbars, menus, settings etc. look okay but on webpages the text is way too big. I've tried about:config settings, changing my Windows resolution, and other things, but nothing has fixed my issue.

Firefox is NOT importing my Safari passwords, even when using a .csv file and the advanced settings method -- about:config signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled

I tried several times but the logins listed in Firefox never reflect any change whatsoever. I have no idea what is going wrong because I follow all the steps everytime. I restarted Firefox even thinking that it would show up after refreshing, but no.

Any more suggestions or help would be much appreciated.

Please, give us a way not to save files that I just want to open.

For instance, I open a PDF to read it. If I want to save it, I'm able to save it myself.

Now I need to check and delete many files that are in my Downloads folder, which is a huge waste of time.

Thank you for considering my opinion.

Regards

John

Why am I getting this message when I do a internet search the first time I use FOXFIRE browser when I log into my computer. Error message says the following-Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot.

i mean, i hate proprietary data mining browsers like edge or chrome but what good is a browser if it doesn't even respect dns settings

can't even use pihole with this crap

what is going on?
