My keyboard and computer are fine. Every website I visit in Firefox works great...except news chat rooms. If I make a comment on a news site (e.g., foxnews.com) I can type the first word with no problem. I hit the space bar and it spaces correctly. However, when I type the first letter of the second word, the letter appears BUT IT BACKSPACES AND ELIMINATES THE SPACE. If I want to type "That is not..." I get "Thatisnot..." (When I enter the i and n, it backspaced.) As you can see from this post, it's not my keyboard. I can post my thoughts in Word and paste the entry onto the news site just fine.

It's related to Firefox, because if I switch over to that god-awful Edge, it doesn't happen. Any ideas?

Please can you advice which way to resize the image of my bank card reader. Each time I open my account on line, the image of the card reader is so long (it seems in a landscape mode) that there is no more space for me to input security details. Is it possible for the image to be resized ie from landscape to portrait. I tried using Ctrl plus and Ctrl minus but it is a bit tricky. Thanks for your help.

For some reason my default PDF reader keeps being changed to MS Office instead of just opening them in the browser as I directed. I keep having to change the setting in Firefox every couple of weeks (general > applications > PDF). What's causing this?

When I installed the last update from FF it messed up my browser display. The main header is 3 times it's usual size and the page display is so large I can't see the whole page. I've changed my zoom settings and other display settings with little help. Changing the page settings helps but does nothing to change the header size. Furthermore, when I close FF and reopen, all the previous changes are lost and the page displays wrong again. The only fix I found so far is to restore windows and don't allow FF to update. I forgot why I wasn't updating. Yesterday I allowed FF to update and now back to a messed up browser display. Guess I'll restore again and not allow any more FF updates. Any thoughts or ideas is appreciated.

FF version 104.0.2 Windows 11 64 bit

Thanks

Hi, below is a crash report code from my firefox.

bp-eb9306b1-8d94-4c25-8ed6-5e6550220907

It started a few days ago. Tabs of latest version firefox started to crash, later firefox started to suddenly close itself spontaneously, and more later I had blue screens. So I decided to format.

Now I have clean install windows 7 ultimate SP1 on a new formatted samsung SSD EVO 870 (1TB) on the C: partition

I downloaded mozilla firefox (104.0.2 x64). But still sometimes it crashes individual tabs that prompts me to "reload this tab" or something like that.

And sometimes the main window spontaneously and suddenly dissappear with all its tabs, without any warning. It can be a few seconds later after I launch firefox, or a few minutes later, or with some typing or mouse action. I also try to take no action and only wait, but it closed again. I tried troubleshoot mode and wait, but it closed again.

I have no addons. I uninstalled firefox and reinstall. nothing changed. All my installations are new and clean. Whats wrong? I need your help.

If i open the Passwordmanager firefox askes my masterpassword. After entering it correctly the list shown is empty. exporting to file doesn't export. It shows where to export and the filename but nothing is saved.

Logins still work using autofill so the data is still stored somewhere.

Hello,

I seem to keep getting an access denied message when I visit some sites, typically for retail shopping sites. How do I prevent/clear those messages to proceed to my desired site? I like Firefox. It's worked well for me, but the repeated error messages are becoming frustrating.

This is a duplicate problem of [[this post|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1237229]], however the chosen answer is silly and not practical to implement because it requires a setting change after every restart. Yeah I'll try to remember to do that.... NOT!

I have dom.webnotifications.enabled set to false but these annoying notifications still appear. They require user intervention to close. I don't fing want notifications about anything, much less that I screenshotted something. Please tell me how to get rid of this crap so I don't have to download a third party add-on.

Hello,

I'm currently trying to log-in on Postman application. This aplication when log-in button is pressed a tab on firefox is open with the postman site log-in. The trouble comes when trying to re-open the tab on another container. It breaks the log-in. To resolve this I would be interesting to some way to choose an specific or default container for new or incoming tabs.

Hi! I had the find-it pro malware on my computer. It caused my new tab page to redirect from Firefox Home to find-it pro. I've since used Malwarebytes to remove the virus, but the redirect is still happening. It only happens when I have my new tab page set to Firefox Home, which makes me think that there's something still installed on Firefox that causes an automatic redirect. I don't see any extensions that would be causing it. Is there anything I can do that wouldn't involve refreshing my browser? I don't want to download all of my extensions again. Thanks!

In addition, Since September 7 the computer is very slow.
