As the title says, firefox is showing the time wrong by an hour in many/all websites.

-PC time is correct -ResistFingerprints is OFF -Firefox is fully updated -No VPN or any plugins that affect timezone or hide it

Time is going straight from the pc to the websites. My timezone is Berlin, yet when writing emails it shows the "draft saved at" an hour earlier than it actually is. Timezone on the email account is set to Berlin. Firefox gets the time from the PC, the PC's time is set automatically by the internet. The PC has no issue fetching the correct time and the battery on the motherboard is fine. Other browsers seem to have this problem too, but I cant figure out why.

Since April 2022 intermittent failure to log in to Spectrum.net on Firefox. Last week intermittent went to full time. So far Spectrum unhelpful. Spectrum tells me they know there is a problem with many users having difficulty logging in on Firefox and that their technicians have been working on it since April.

Error message: "We’re sorry, we’re unable to sign you in. Please try again later. IDID-3210."

Several times I have also received IDID-3104 - I think that's right.

Spectrum provided an email only access which also fails on Firefox but works on Edge. Can now access full Spectrum website through Edge.

What I have already tried on Spectrum. DELETED: cookies loggins old bookmarks Spectrum passwords

Spectrum appears to forcing me to use any browser other than Firefox. I want to use Firefox. Hate Edge. Please help.

I had a version of firefox working. The world was sweet.

One day (1 July or there about) things changed and firefox was basically useless. When I load it, all logins are forgotten and I have to log in again. (Painful, and another thread)

That aside: The "new" version was 102.0 This was applied to my machine without me knowing. (This also happened on another machine I have but luckily it didn't suffer the same problem.) But anyway...

The machine now has 102.0 installed.

The other day while trying to find what is "broken" in it, I am told there is an update and it told me I had 13 days to do it.... Or something like that. Alas I've deleted the screen shot as I need to keep the bin less full to help me if I accidentally delete something I shouldn't.

So now I have 102.0.1

So I'm confused: What is the mechanics of rolling out updates? An update I didn't want (beside the point) but none the less broke firefox was done without my knowledge, and yet another one which was throwing up messages at me when I loaded firefox doesn't?

I don't really know what either update did.

After the last Firefox update, i am trying to open youtube.com in my Firefox browser but it's not letting me to do it. Every time i open it shows an error and says that the error is from YOUTUBE and FIREFOX or I can do nothing about it. But the funny part is its working on other browsers like chrome.

Much (but not all) of the time, when I click on a link that opens in a new tab, that tab never loads the content. It sits there with the little dot on the left oscillating back and forth.

BUT if I close Firefox and reopen it, it comes back with all the tabs I had when I closed it -- and the problem tab loads and displays the content without trouble.

What can I do to not have to close and reopen Firefox so often?

I'm running the latest version of Firefox on Windows 11 Home. 64-bit.en

After being updated to FireFox release 102.1, any zipped or setup (execution) files show as 'file' extension and will not open or execute.

Can you please advise me on how to fix? I tried using a different browser for same download, and it works fine (leaves the extension as application or exe or zip). FireFox is defined as the default browser - Windows 10.

Thanks!

Windows 8.1 Firefox 102.0.1 Clean install with a brand new profile

Noodling around about:config I discovered that the boolean value browser.sessionstore.enabled does not exist.

Interestingly though, it's numerical partner browser.sessionstore.interval does exist and was set to 15000. (15000 miliseconds = 15 seconds)

I was planning to increase this interval significantly. However...

It is my understanding that browser.sessionstore.enabled must be set to true for browser.sessionstore.interval to have any effect.

So what gives? Why is there a browser.sessionstore.interval set to 15000 when the prerequisite browser.sessionstore.enabled does not even exist?

Firefox has stopped working correctly. I have to go to help and trouble shooting and REFRESH FIREFOX in order for it work. When I open it I get the image below. No matter if I click on the favorite bar links or just the default open page which is www.youtube.com. Doesn't matter. I'm using windows 11 and the other browsers I'm using work fine. Opera, Chrome and Edge. Only Firefox is having this issue. If it doesn't get corrected soon I'm done with Firefox.

Hi,

So far this year, Firefox updates are causing problems.

Sometimes it updates in the middle of my seeing patients.

It used to give me the option of restoring all tabs. Now it no longer permits that option, so I have to painstakingly go through my recent history and add each needed tab - very time-consuming and annoying. I don't want to switch to Chrome but may have to as I have to use it anyway for sites that don't support Firefox.
