I am restarting FF. I am on 76 and the install is for 77. A window pops up asking for my credentials to install a new helper tool. I don't recall seeing this before and it looks a lot like Oracle's Java installer that tries to install a bunch of crud. In that case cancel continues with the Java install. In this case, Cancel stops the FF upgrade.
What is this tool and why is it not described better to know have a better guess as to whether it is safe to install?

I'm downloading lots of JSON files on day-to-day basis and I'm tired of selection download action because FF doesn't have a "remember" checkbox for it (see image below).
You can reproduce it: go to any site that allows you to download jsons, e.g. https://petstore.swagger.io/#/pet/findPetsByStatus
If you execute any request there will be a `Download` button If you click it you will see a popup similar to attached one: no "remember" checkbox.
How do I make it remember my choice?

Just planning ahead here...
I have Firefox 68.9.0esr (the latest esr version). I have Firefox set to “check for updates but let me decide whether to install them.” I have read that a new version of esr based on Firefox 78 will be released on June 30, 2020, but that there will be an approx 3-month overlap period during which one can alternatively choose to use additional 68.xx esr updates.
If I want to take advantage of this overlap period and keep using an up-to-date 68esr as long as possible, how would I do so? After June 30, will I be offered only 78esr versions, or will I be offered the “overlap” 68.xx? If the answer is that I will be offered 78esr as of June 30, how can I obtain the overlap 68 esr updates instead?
Thanks.

Hi,
We are having an issue with Firefox 77 x64 on a Win10 (1909 - 18363.836) When we start it, nothing happens. Sometimes, we can see for half a second the dialog box asking if we want to start in safe mode but firefox stops before we have time to do anything. We tried to start firefox from Powershell in safe-mode without any success. We started firefox to reach the profile manager (.\firefox -ProfileManager), the profil manager starts and is crashing after half a second We noticed an installation of firefox 32 bits remaining. We deleted the folder. We desinstalled Firefox and reinstallled it many times without any success. (we tried the long term version without any success) We deleted the profile folder without any success.
What could we do?
Thanks in advance for your help!!

I recently had to change the email address that I have had for many years because Vodafone decided unilaterally no longer to support the sub-domain.
I changed from: [email]hoof.demon.co.uk
to: [email]@hoofratings.co.uk
Having registered my new email address, I tried to get into my pocket list but all the pages saved over several years have gone and I am having to start again from scratch.
I tried to get in by using the old email address, but of course that is no longer recognized.
The new email address simply gets me to a virgin pocket.
Is there any way I can get my legacy pocket back and accessible under the new email address?
Any help would be much appreciated.

I also pressed the icon which said make Firefox my default browser......sorry I am appearing a bit confused as to whether I have understood but I am trying......Regards Mark

Dear audience
I have troubles that when I copy Firefox profile to another computer, the web extensions does not work.
Sometimes helps to restart Firefox to safe-mode and then back to normal. But always works when on a new computer I disable extensions and enabled them back on.
If I remember correctly, this behavior started with Firefox 68.
OS: Windows 10 Firefox: 77.0.1, 64bit, English
Do anyone know why this is happening, and hot to correct it? Is there any preference that should be modified?
Thank you and cheers

Recently I bought a new Mac, and used my external TimeMachine backup drive to put all my data on the new MacBook Air.
Since then, Firefox is having trouble with certain sites. On Patreon.com, most data won't load - I just get their swirling "wait" pattern forever. On Libsyn.com, the podcast description field for when I'm posting a new podcast episode fails to appear - the label "Description" is there, but no field.
Also, if I use Facebook Messenger, to talk to someone, inevitably about five minutes into the call, I'm told that there's a lot of noise on the call, or a lot of echo on my voice, or they can't hear me at all. For me, the connection is fine, but the other person experiences this. It's not a mic problem -- happens regardless of which mic I'm using, and other options like Skype don't do this, just Facebook.
Since all of these sites function fine in other browsers, I'm assuming something got slightly messed up in Firefox during the migration to the new Mac. What can I do to iron this out?
