Dear Well Loved, Firefox community.

I wanted to ask if theirs a trick to, or if not, ask for a how to ask mozilla to create a new functionality for storing you Default Session Setup.

Whats the idea, is very simple. This surges, for my needs of how I use the tool.

Somewhere, 70%-90% of my work week hours are spent on a browser, specific on the very best and my first love, Firefox (well si was not may first, but it the closest to Netscape, my true love). For organization reasons, I always open my tabs on the same order and pin the first 4 to 5 tabs, there are my top 4 to 5 tools, example: my email, my calendar, messaging (whatsapp or slack), , my comapy tab (erp, crm, wms, etc).

So it will be nice, that at any divice I'm login, every time I open my Firefox this pin tabs always open first, so that my working setup is open wright away.

Hi all,

I migrated from a very old Windows 7 system to a recent Windows 11 one. I'm using the most recent version of Firefox developer edition on the new version. To use my old settings, I copied my old profile folder to the new machine. Everything worked out fine, however, I still have the "incombatibility" badge on the menu panel (see screenshot). Is there any way to get rid of this?

weibo.com will not load on Firefox. I've tested it on Edge and Chrome and it loads on both. It uses a "sina passport" system, I assume to handle traffic from outside China and avoid DDOS attacks. The URL for this is passport.weibo.com. The issue with Firefox is that it never passes this check. The passport will continually refresh and never load the main website content, only serving a blank URL as it tries to enter the site.

Hey, I switched from Windows to Mac and see a different behaviour in how cookies in private mode are handled. On Windows closing a private window clears everything, especially it logged me out from all websited I logged in in this private session.

Not on Mac I am still logged in in private windows after I close and reopen a new one. Also the zoom level ist kept.

Is this a bug or intended behavior having a private window that keeps all my logins in new sessions? And why is it different on Windows and Mac?

Most of my bookmarks has suddenly changed address to https://translate.google.no. I do not have the dating of this change, but i assume it has happened in 2023. The individual names/titles of these bookmarks with new address, has not not been changed. I have the 115.0.2 (64 bit) version of the Firefox on my PC, and only one (1) Firefox profile.

After I had taken backup of the newest bookmark, I tried to restore the bookmark-files from the backup library. Unfortunately these older bookmark files also had the same problem with changed address to https://translate.google.no.

What can i do to reset the bookmark-adresses from https://translate.google.no to the original bookmark-addresses?

This is my first time to write and ask a ?I will be grateful if anyone can help me solve it. I signed up for the Free Relay of email just to try it out. My primary email was there and I added my secondary email --them I noticed there was what looks like a strange email already there. In conjunction with this i got a warning from Firefox today that somebody from Romania had tried to change my password.

Any Ideas I would appreciate them.

Thanks paul

Firefox miscalculates top edge in Windows 11

Sometimes, Firefox launches with its title bar just off screen (and the menu bar sits against the top edge) so the mouse cannot reach the title bar controls. I find that if I drag the right edge of the window in a small amount, the title bar drops down a few pixels so I can see a few pixels of the title bar and its controls. So adjusting the right edge seems to cause a recalculation of the top edge. It suggests that on launch, there is a miscalculation. It would be nice to fix this - a minor irritation as I now have a workaround. Note - if I *drag* the title bar to the top of the window, the furthest 'north' I can go is this same position with a few pixels of the title bar showing - If I go further, the title bar ( not the whole window) jumps back to have this same part showing. regards Gareth HP Envy Win 11 NVidia HDR screen 3840x2160 (the recommended setting) with text set 200%

Ok, I've resolved this in the past, several version of Firefox ago, under windows. Firefox crashes silently, open it again and no tabs are restored. Open firefox again and look in recently closed windows and the one with my tabs is not there, only little utility windows that are popped up when I log in at the coffee shop, so my recently closed windows are overwritten with windows with no tabs.

So I go to my profile sessionstore-backups folder and copy it to the desktop. I have 6 files, previous.jsonlz4, recovery.baklz4, and recovery.jsonlz4 at around 8 megs in size. I copied each to the folder one level up and renamed them sessionstore.jsonlz4, and each time restarted firefox. All that opens is a blank tabbed firefox window.

There was never an existing sessionstore.jsonlz4 file anywhere I could find, even with firefox closed, this file never appears anywhere I could find it. Searching files with Windows was also unsuccessful.

I feel like I have captured the files with my tabs, based on the date modified, several were from before the crash. Why can't I find a working tutorial on how to restore my tabs? Nothing I've found on the support site works though I follow the directions exactly.

Thanks

I use Cozi.com for recipes, and I always used to run it in firefox, but in the latest version 115.0.2 For Ubuntu linux, it does not allow me to edit entries, or even add new ones, I can add a blank field, but when I type in it, no letters appear.

I am now using the application on Opera until you get this fixed.

I need to make a new profile for testing purposes. I have the list of modified preferences in the about:config page. Couldn't I just replace each modified preference one by one with the values from the old profile to replicate all of the settings (even those that appear in the settings menu)?

I think my firefox is infected in some way. I am constantly getting phishing pop-ups on the lower right hand corner of my screen when using the Firefox browser. They claim to be from McAfee, Windows and other legitimate places and tell me things like viruses have been detected, but scans of my computer do not detect any. They all come from something called 5qlql.azure.net or something similar to that.
