Hello

Since updating to 120.0 on a win 11 pro platform, clicking a link on a webpage no longer opens it in a new tab. Options to do this and switch to the new page are both checked in general / tabs / settings. Any ideas why this is happening?

TIA Dave

I uninstalled Firefox that I had been using for years because when I opened it yesterday it said the file was corrupted and unreadable. I installed Firefox today but it did not import my bookmarks from the previous version of Firefox. I have windows 10

Hello!

Part of the reason (a small part, but part nonetheless) that I began to use Firefox was the ability to screenshare and screenshot disney+, netflix, and etc -- but after updating to 120.0, my screenshots are being blocked (as though I were on Chrome or Edge).

I am not doing piracy! I make edits and stuff. It'd be super helpful to know how to fix this, or if there even is a way.

Hello

again after upgrade this time version 119.0.1 to version 120.0 the behaviour changed to store downloads. This time I directly modified the settings of applications, their type and which action I expect. Again problems and files are stored elsewhere. Once again modifications and it seems to be fixed.

It seems that this part of Firefox is modified too but I'm not sure. One download is still running and the file and the temporary part exists but not in the specified base directory. The other ones are working as result of my second approach.

Any other experience concerning download and where to store?

Kind regards

Firefox Crashes Soon After Launch including in Troubleshoot Mode and after clean re-install

Firefox crashes almost immediately upon startup. Have run through each step of: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-crashes-closing-or-quitting

and while I wasn't able to get the RAM memory test application to work, none of the other steps worked either.

I have a content filter installed on this computer, that's the only other thing I can think of that is causing the issue. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Firefow downloads a file twice

Whenever I download a file Firefox downloads two of the same file. One is an empty file and the second file is the right size.

Example: I want to download a file called blender-4.0.1-macos-x64.dmg, when I start the download the first copy shows up immediately in my download folder called blender-4.0.1-macos-x64.dmg with zero bytes but another one is still downloading. Once that one is fully downloaded too I have another one in my download floder called blender-4.0.1-macos-x64-1.dmg.

Not sure how to prevent that, it is very annoying

When playing videos on this website only, then there are distortions on the video as you can see in the screenshot. It happens when i try to jump into a specific part of the video. The website is https://aniwatch.to The link of the video i am playing : https://aniwatch.to/watch/dark-gathering-18482?ep=109564 at 18:50. I feel like it maybe a problem with codecs. I tried almost everything related to hardware acceleration(With on and off). A new profile with no extensions,updating gpu drivers(AMD) nothing seemed to fix it. This website works fine on chromium browsers.

Up to four or so days ago I was able to fire up my Linux and Firefox and had immediate access to both Gmail and Calendar. Now I am requested to sign in every time, are offered a Shareable Calendar (for which I have no use) and get a notification in my cell phone reporting a new login. Also, WhatsApp Web is requiring to link with my phone every time I want to use it in my laptop.

I'm using Firefox 120.0 and this behavior appears to have started after the upgrade. I have also Vivaldi installed and its operation with the above pages is normal.

This is most annoying. Have security rules been changed? Am I doing something wrong? Will appreciate any help you can provide.

when i use the URL box as a search box, and it gets selected, the background turns dark dark grey -- can't read what's under it (to see what i selected/want to copy) or type in (what i'm searching for). AND when that box offers options, the links come in the most awful blue-green I've ever seen. Tried to change the color by command -- no luck. and it's not reading "use system colors" which it did before.

This is an utter crap preset MAC OS Ventura

First noticed issues when using X.com on my phone (stopped loading even after 2x cold boots) I use FF Beta on it; downloaded FF full for Android & X still don't load. Still can't get FF to update itself. Tried the Installer for Win & no go. Sigh.

Hey there! So for the past several days, I've been having websites not loading correctly. At first, it was only websites For twitch, everything loads as normal, except for the broadcast itself. It doesn't matter if it's live or a vod. The chat even works. Where the broadcast should be is the person's offline overlay. For youtube, either the page will sit with the loading symbol in the middle and eventually it will connect, or the video will refuse to load. During my troubleshooting, one youtube tab will be working fine and the other tab I've loaded for it will not. Now, other websites aren't loading correctly either. Some elements will load and other won't. Some websites I can see the missing elements appear for a moment when I refresh.

I've tried deleting all of my extensions, turning off bitdefender, uninstalling bitdefender, scanning with malewarebytes, clearing cookies, clearing my history, and nothing is working. I am not having any of these problems on other browsers that I've tried during troubleshooting.
