Firefox Support Forum

Hello. Windows system, firefox update came, the size of the top bar is extremely large, while the system scale is 125%, and in the firefox itself 100%. Such actions were the reason for leaving chrome. Does history repeat itself?

Hi, after the update to Firefox 103, everything is too big in my Firefox. Looking at the release notes, I realize that this is because Firefox is now responding differently to the "make everything bigger" setting in Windows. I typically have this set to 150 to get everything in Windows set to the appropriate sizes. This was fine with the old Firefox behavior, but now everything in Firefox is too large. Can I revert Firefox to the old font scaling behavior?

 add-on, setting adjustment, or about config switch?

What are you doing with Firefox browser. Have been using it since the 90's with very little trouble but in the last six months it has become hopeless. Just constant dropouts, but switch to Google Chrome and it's perfect. please fix this problem. .

I've always accessed CIBC online banking with Firefox, but as of a few days ago it will no longer load: the wheel just keeps spinning endlessly.

Is there a new problem?

How can I sync my Firefox browser? It always asks for my Primary Password. I tried resetting my password, deleting/recreating my account, and I'm always asked for the "Primary Password". I can log into Firefox Accounts with my e-mail and known password, but I can't reach the sync option because I'm always asked for the "Primary Password", which seems to be out of sync with my Firefox Account.

When trying to clear cookies and site data on first opening Firefox 103.0, on a iMac 10.15.7 I typically have 363 KB of Cashed Web Content even after browsing in Privacy mode and shutting Firefox down. When attempting to erase this data it always leaves 264 KB until I take other measures to get rid of the data. Why is this?

Second when opening Firefox I get a mozilla.cloudflare-dns.com notice which I deny access to. What is the purpose of this connection?

Third I also get mozilla.cloudflare-dns.com plugin-container attempt which I also block. What is the purpose of this connection?

When allowing for the latter two access attempts I get multiple connection attempts which I don't get when I block them, nor does the browser encounter any other problems when they are blocked.

Thank you.

When I query a subject, I cannot see the following choices under the search bar: "All", "Images", "Video", "News", "Maps", "Shopping" and "Settings". It only happens once if I restart my computer, but after that I only see "All Regions" and "Anytime" below the search bar.

Firefox- You have really screwed the pooch with this update. Half the websites I visit today are broken in some way, and the other half are displayed incorrectly (as in being about 4 pages wide and who knows how many tall). I missed a couple of important bids cause I couldn't get to the links I needed to buy something before they expired. Why was this needed? You can do security updates all day long, but you had to change how every website on the planet LOOKS???? Plus, YOUR crap on the page takes up one third of the screen real estate. I trusted you for years as being NOT Microsoft. Guess that is truly over, as this is an absolute travesty...

When I try to print something using Instanet (I'm a Realtor) it print out just a few words and they are huge. I tried printing the same info using Chrome and it printed fine

I am no longer able to login to my Walgreens account with Firefox. It worked until mid June, I can still gain access using Chrome. Turning off Privacy Badger does not help and no trackers are detected by Firefox .

Ver. 103.0 64bit

Lately, if I download a .zip file, my Firefox browser (V 103.0 (64-bit)) is changing the file extention to a .MP4 file, causing it not to open. Whilst I can fix this by changing the extention back to a .zip myself, not everyone will know this. Is this some kind of deliberate security fix?

I have recently sent all my clients a link to download a zip file from my server and now I'm worried that if any of them are using Firefox, they wont be able to open it.

Has anyone else had this problem? I'm not sure if it started with the latest update or a previous one. It needs fixing. I have checked all the other major browsers and none of them are changing the file extention.

I've copied my Firefox profile from one Windows 10 computer to another Windows 10 computer without difficulty in the past.

Is there anything different I need to do when going to a new Windows 11 computer?

Advice and instructions would be much appreciated!

I turned off my laptop last night as I do each night. Opened it up today and my Mozilla browser has changed and it's enlarged! And each and every page I go on is enlarged. NO matter how many times I have shut down and turned back on it's the same. Even if I reduce the page by holding the - control to shrink the page it happens when I reopen that page again or another page. What can I do??? WTF is goin' on??? And why the *uck isn't there a toll free # to call for technical support!!!! + ALL my side extensions are gone off my task bar!!!!! ARG!!!!

Firefox (FF) 103.x has been set in Settings NOT to restore automatically the previous session-- ie. the check-box in Settings for startup is empty/clear. Yet, FF autoloads the previous session, anyway, after about 45 to 60 seconds.

Put another way, FF does not follow my instructions for the item left clear in Settings.

In the typical FF startup, immediately after loading FF, the screen is empty of tabs provided by the application I normally use, named Tree Style Tabs. The screen should stay that way until I decide to load the previous session. On checking the FF top menu, I find Restore Previous Session is in BOLD, which means the previous session can be restored at my discretion. That is the way I prefer FF to operate.

Yet, 45-60 seconds later after FF startup, the FF screen flashes, and the previous session loads. When I check the top menu, the Load Previous Session item is no longer in boldface type.

As a test, I cleared the stack of tabs by closing each tab except one, and restarted FF. As usual, the single tab auto-loaded 45-60 seconds after starting FF. Under Settings, the Load Previous Session item was no longer in boldface type (since it had loaded, already).

I am unable to use the Google Reverse Image website via Firefox. It will not allow me to upload the image to the site. I have no problem when accessing the site via Microsoft Edge.
