I have been developing an Angular website that's served on port 4200 on localhost. Up until now it only accepted http connections, but I've now upgraded it to https. Firefox has about 50 credentials remembered for this site and it's always worked fine, but if I go to the https URL, it totally refuses either to show the existing password OR pop up the dialog box to add it for the new URL, so I have to type the password every time. I've disabled all extensions as suggested and it still doesn't work, although for the http URL it still does. I've not added any code on the site to discourage saving credentials. What do you suggest?

as of last week sometime, videos in my CRM (customer relationship manager) have stopped working. When I use a different browser, ie: Edge, everything works correctly. My CRM company tried to dupliocate the issue on their system using Firefox but they were not having the same issue. Something in my Firefox version 138.0.1 is causing an issue. Can you help troubleshoot and correct my issue?

I've been using Firefox since 2020 (Kubuntu 20.04 LTS) with a bit of a custom setup:

Since I like moving Data between my Windows and my Linux a lot, I've got a NTFS partition that mounts into my user in Linux.

So /home/user/Desktop or /home/user/Downloads, or [...] is a bind mount that mounts the NTFS user directory there. And since it's Linux and NTFS, this means all files have 777 root root permissions.

This worked fine back in the day. Moving to 22.04 LTS and then 24.04 LTS, I had the problem that Firefox came as a snap. And for snap to allow it to write to the Download directory, I needed to install it in development-mode. And because of my weird setup, I also ran into issues when uploading files.

So I moved to the version of Firefox provided by the mozilla ppa. And this worked.

However the nasty surprise came with version 138.0. First off, it was installed with snap. It ignored my pinned ppa and it did so without warning. I found it weird that once I launched Firefox, all my tabs and bookmarks had disappeared. And once I got the glitchy Downloads again where it would create 10'000 files per download with size 0 I put two and two together and checked the install source. And wouldn't you know it - snap.

Just as a general PSA: If I go through the effort of adding the ppa, pinning it as the prioritized one I wish for that package to fucking respect that. What else would you expect? A Laptop just happens to have the mozilla ppa pinned. And that just so happens to also be a Laptop that has Firefox installed from said ppa. Of course that's a mistake. Because it's less secure so it needs to be fixed for the user of said laptop. Mozilla you can stop pretending to know better how I want my laptop setup.

However with that not enough - the new Sandbox for Firefox (or whatever new feature this is I'm fighting) now also prevents it from downloading to my Downloads folder with the same 10'000 file issue. And even worse, I cannot edit the target directories for Downloads. It doesn't open the directory selection dialog.

So my question: How do I bypass the write protection for mounts with Firefox 138.0? And if that doesn't work how do I "unsandbox" Firefox?

PS: Mozilla and your Dev Team, get back to your roots. You're an open source project stop doing this corporate bullshit. First the TOS now this shit. You're starting to rival Microsoft treating user settings as suggestions.

My ISP is VirginMedia and I use their Webmail system for all of my email requirements.

I have FireFox set to download new versions when issued and upgrade when my machine is rebooted.

I rebooted yesterday and the new version FireFox (v138.0.1 (64bit)) was installed.

When I checked my mail later on I got the message:

   Error: Failed to load messages.  Retry.

And that has remained the same for more than 24 hours; none of my folders are accessible and I have been unable to send mail; I have 44 messaqes in my Inbox and 2 in my Spam folder.

I contacted Virgin's Tech Support earlier this evening and they were unable to find any faults at their end, and they suggested trying another browser (which I was loathe to do since FireFox has been my choice for more years than I care to remember ~~ but I bit the bullet and installed Opera - and found that I was able to access my webmail and all of its' folders at Virgin.

Please tell me that there'a fix on the way, I don't want to switch from FFox and nor do I want to run two browsers at the same time.

I clicked on an add (will never do that again) that advertised making money by reviewing movies and TV shows that you watch. Wheen the website opened, it really wasn't that, so I closed it. Then every time I would open a new website, a tab with that site would open automatically.

I went to Settings, Privacy and Security, Website Privacy Preferences, Cookies and Site Data and cleared data. I also clicked on Manage Data and removed the website from that list.

It didn't work. Any ideas on how to get rid of this really annoying invasion of my computer and privacy?

Hallo Firefox-Support,

System: Windows 10 x64 Ich habe Firefox komplett neu installiert. Es ist kein Benutzerkonto synchronisiert, das Profil ist komplett leer. Vor der Neuinstallation habe ich alle drei Mozilla-Ordner in AppData (Roaming, Local, LocalLow) gelöscht und den PC neu gestartet.

Leider besteht folgendes Problem weiterhin:

Wenn ich auf https://www.google.de/maps/ gehe und ganz unten rechts auf „Feedback zu Produkt(en) geben“ klicke, und anschließend auf „Straße hinzufügen oder korrigieren“, dann lädt es unendlich – es passiert nichts.

Ich hatte gehofft, dass das Problem nach der Neuinstallation behoben ist, aber es besteht weiterhin. In anderen Browsern (z. B. Chrome oder Edge) funktioniert es sofort und ich kann direkt Straßen auswählen.

Ich bin ratlos und hoffe auf Ihre Unterstützung.

Anbei der Konsolen-Text aus den Firefox-Entwicklerwerkzeugen, nachdem ich den Fehler erneut ausgelöst habe. Benötigen Sie noch weitere Informationen oder Logs von mir, um das Problem besser untersuchen zu können?

Freundliche Grüße Fabienne

Hello Firefox Support,

System: Windows 10 x64 I have completely reinstalled Firefox. No user account is synced, the profile is completely fresh. Before reinstalling, I deleted all three Mozilla folders from AppData (Roaming, Local, LocalLow) and restarted my PC.

Unfortunately, the issue still persists:

When I go to https://www.google.de/maps/ and click “Send feedback” at the bottom right, then select “Add or fix a road”, it loads endlessly — nothing happens.

I had hoped reinstalling Firefox would fix it, but the issue remains. In other browsers (e.g., Chrome or Edge), it works instantly, and I can select roads without any problem.

I’m out of ideas and would really appreciate your support.

Attached is the console text from the Firefox Developer Tools, captured right after reproducing the issue. Do you need any additional logs or details from me to investigate this further?

Kind regards, Fabienne

For a while I've been able to put a youtube video in PiP mode while I do something in a videogame without any issues, but after yesterday's update every time I focus on the game the video becomes extremely laggy for no reason. I've turned off hardware acceleration (it was turned on before) and also tried it out in troubleshoot mode, but the result ended up the same. Has this happened to other people? Or a similar issue? Feels like more than a coincidence that this started happening after yesterday's update.
