Firefox Community Forum

I have installed Custom Scrollbars by Wesley Branton which gives me wide vertical scrollbars with up/down arrows in Outlook email. This has started disappearing and reverting to default narrow bars without arrows, maybe I am accidentally clicking somewhere in the reading pane? To get the wide bars back I have to delete the Add-on, close the computer, then re-install the Add-on. Can anyone advise what is going on here and how I can get the wider bars/arrows to stay permanently.

thanks in advance Barry

Wndows10 with Firefox

For almost a week now, I keep getting a message on a site I've been going to for more than 10 years (deviantart) when I use firefox on my computer, which I am not having these issues accessing using Safari on my phone.

403 ERROR The request could not be satisfied. Request blocked. We can't connect to the server for this app or website at this time. There might be too much traffic or a configuration error. Try again later, or contact the app or website owner.

The request ID changes each time.

The steps I have taken so far:

• Tools -> Page Info -> Permissions (everything was fine)
• Reloaded page using Shift+ Left Click to bypass cache
• Reloaded page with Ctrl + F5
• Started Firefox in Troubleshoot mode to assure it wasn't my extensions (I only use ublock but better safe than sorry)
• I disabled extensions after reloading in usual mode

What steps are next after these basic troubleshooting? I was hoping to use that site to share creations with friends.

I have set E:\ as my default download location. However in some cases Firefox does not respect my choice and silently downloads stuff to C:\Users\Name\Downloads. I really hate this. One example, a pdf downloaded from here https://scribd.vpdfs.com/. Please fix it. Thx.

Hi

Reinstalled Win 10 pro on my i7 4th gen 16gb RAM 250 SSD copied firefox profile folder which brings back all my windows tabs bookmarks etc

I now get tabs crashing constantly

Before the reformat I used Norton 360 at mostley default settings for over 6 months with no problems,

tried turning things off in Norton

Norton 360 is reinstalled: browser extensions, password manager, norton homepage, norton safeweb, norton safesearch are all not installed Browser and browser data protection is on, VPN is off turned off auto protect and smartfirewall

use to use adblockplus and privacy badger firefox add ons with no problem these are now off

Ive refreshed startup and cleared startup cache

maybe when I copied the profile across it missed some files however I did zip the old profile folder and copied its a big file 690MB unzipped

not sure what to do now

Several sites I use regularly (for instance, The Guardian) use recaptcha as part of the login process. It fails on Firefox, though I can log in on Chrome. I dislike Chrome, and prefer Firefox for several reasons, including that it is easier on my eyes. I note that there are many complaints describing the same thing that I experience: recaptcha fails to load, or there is simply a blue circle turning in perpetuity with nothing happening. I have removed recent cookies etc, but no change.

There are some sites that use recapcha that I can sign in on using Firefox with no problem. I am wondering if there are different versions of captcha? This started the same week both Microsoft and Firefox updated. Firefox has updated several times since then, but recaptcha is still nonfunctional: FF is not loading it, at least on some critical sites (perhaps the ones that use the most recent recaptcha?

I have reported this frequently for last several months. I notice that this is a continuing problem for many people. Why is it not fixed?

I cannot pin the extension to the toolbar. The extension is not shown in the puzzle icon dropdown, and it is not in the overflow. Please add an automatic pin to the toolbar when a new extension is added! How do I pin it now?
