Hello people,

I have a problem. At the moment I am running a Firefox version 143 on Linux with different windows. At the top left you can then select which windows you want to use. Only now it has disappeared. You get a home page. I have tried several solutions. Anyway, how do you get the rest back? Thanks.

Menu Bar Auto-Unhide Behavior in Full Screen Mode

Is there away to prevent the auto-unhide of the menu bar in full screen mode when the cursor moves to the top of the screen? I have searched for answers to this and found some old posts about creating a userChrome.css file but I couldn't get it to work.

Here's my use case. I access a remote desktop through Citrix for work. I use a browser via Citrix Lite instead of Citrix Workspace because the desktop will dynamically adjust to the window size when I don't need it in full screen which Citrix Workspace will not do. However, the auto-unhide feature of menu bar when the browser is in full screen mode also causes the desktop to dynamically adjust when it drops down and again when disappears. This forces me pause when trying to work because it happens often since I'm using a a large monitor with multiple applications open with tool bars on the top rows. I know that I can not hide the menu and address bar but don't want to lose the extra screen real-estate. I would much rather have a keyboard shortcut to reveal the menu bar or some other option.

Proposta di implementazione della funzione “Sottotitoli in tempo reale” su Firefox / Proposal for implementing “Real-time Captions” feature in Firefox

Gentile Team Mozilla, vi scrivo per sottoporvi una proposta che ritengo molto importante per migliorare l’accessibilità e l’inclusione digitale: l’implementazione della funzione “sottotitoli in tempo reale” direttamente nel browser Firefox. Questa funzione, già presente in Google Chrome, permette di generare automaticamente sottotitoli per qualsiasi contenuto audio o video riprodotto nel browser, indipendentemente dalla piattaforma o dal servizio di origine. Sarebbe quindi estremamente utile per tutte le persone sorde o con difficoltà uditive, ma anche per chi vive in contesti dove l’audio non è sempre disponibile o utilizzabile. Introdurre i sottotitoli in tempo reale su Firefox rappresenterebbe un passo decisivo verso l’accessibilità universale, garantendo a milioni di utenti la possibilità di fruire dei contenuti online senza barriere. Una funzionalità simile non solo rafforzerebbe la missione di Mozilla per un web aperto e inclusivo, ma darebbe anche un segnale concreto di attenzione alle esigenze reali delle persone. Vi ringrazio per l’attenzione e spero che questa proposta possa essere presa in considerazione per i futuri sviluppi di Firefox. Cordiali saluti.


Dear Mozilla Team, I am writing to propose an important feature that would greatly improve accessibility and digital inclusion in Firefox: the implementation of real-time captions directly in the browser. This feature, already available in Google Chrome, automatically generates subtitles for any audio or video content played within the browser, regardless of the platform or service. It would therefore be extremely valuable not only for deaf or hard-of-hearing users, but also for anyone in situations where audio cannot be played or easily understood. Introducing real-time captions in Firefox would represent a major step toward universal accessibility, ensuring that millions of users can enjoy online content without barriers. Such a feature would not only strengthen Mozilla’s mission for an open and inclusive web, but also demonstrate a tangible commitment to meeting real user needs. Thank you for your attention, and I hope this proposal can be considered for future versions of Firefox. Sincerely.

Tôi muốn hỏi rằng Mozilla có kế hoạch nào để tích hợp sẵn tính năng dịch trang web từ các ngôn ngữ khác sang tiếng Việt trong trình duyệt Firefox hay không? Đây là một tính năng rất cần thiết, đặc biệt là đối với tôi khi thường xuyên đọc tài liệu nước ngoài. Việc gặp phải những từ khó khiến quá trình đọc hiểu trở nên chậm hơn, vì vậy nếu có sẵn tính năng dịch từ ngôn ngữ khác sang tiếng Việt thì sẽ vô cùng tiện lợi và hữu ích. Tôi nhận thấy hiện nay trình duyệt đã hỗ trợ dịch từ tiếng Việt sang tiếng Anh, nhưng chiều ngược lại thì chưa có. Rất mong cộng đồng hoặc đội ngũ phát triển có thể chia sẻ thêm thông tin về việc liệu tính năng này có nằm trong kế hoạch phát triển tương lai hay không, và nếu có thì dự kiến khi nào sẽ ra mắt. Xin chân thành cảm ơn!

I'm refreshing a page on my phone service provider's website. I'm logged into the account along with my sister. She deleted a scheduled topup for her phone and the page showed no scheduled topups. i refreshed the same webpage but it listed the topup. I cleared the cache and again reloaded the page and it still showed an outdated version of the page. I used Google Chrome and it showed the updated version of the page with no scheduled topups.

Hello Mozilla community,

I want to share my extremely frustrating experience while trying to create desktop shortcuts for Firefox profiles. I have two profiles, and despite following all standard methods (including manually navigating to the profile folders), nothing worked. The usual steps, including directly creating shortcuts from the profile folder or using suggested tools, failed.

I specifically wanted a way to create exact shortcuts for each profile without manually editing anything. Even after testing everything, the only option left seems to be permanently leaving the profile inside Firefox and opening it from there, which defeats the purpose of quick access.

Due to this unnecessarily complicated process and lack of practical solutions, I have decided to leave Firefox permanently and switch to another browser.

Has anyone successfully created direct shortcuts for multiple Firefox profiles in Windows 11 without manual editing? Any practical advice would be appreciated, although I’m already moving away from Firefox.

Thank you. https://chatgpt.com/share/68e37504-cb3c-8002-8b05-f93a0edb5e02

I opened Firefox on one of my computers as usual today but the whole performance changed. Used to go to my home tab and select various news sites to see what was happening. First, when I scroll down the bookmarks, I would hit the "news" and click on it so all the sub items would stay in the scroll, but instead of that, it wanted to open every item as a new tab. When I finally started opening the various news outlets, it opened them in new tabs, it had always opened in the same tab. Then, I couldn't close the various tabs it had opened. I would go to the tab and hit the "X" but it didn't close the tab. I had to use a drop down menu to close a tab. And when in a site, I used the scroll button on the mouse, instead of scrolling, it made the page larger or smaller instead of going up or down. What could make such a change in behavior? I opened up the 'settings' on it and looked at 'tabs' and they were the same as the ones that are on this computer that works as expected. Both computers have it set to open all previous windows and tabs. Both have the same settings for 'tabs' and 'browsing'. I don't get it. Both are version 143.0.3 (64-bit) I have Ubuntu OS.

I usually have a lot of pages open on Firefox and the display in the dock gets packed, if you will. I would like to see an option in the settings to turn the dock display off, just for your program, Firefox. It would be nice to toggle this option. I've searched for about an hour trying for an option and a solution. Thanks for your good works. I'm on an early Mac Mini 15.7.1

Yesterday I received non-stop pop ups from <opb-protect.pro> on Firefox, and only Firefox. On going to <Permissions> I checked that I had turned on block pop-ups. It was turned on. But under notifications this sinister pop up had inserted itself as <Allowed>. It has inserted this; <https://d3ka84anaffc73c14rf0.opb-protect.pro>

I had now set that to <Block>. I mention this because this mob have managed to work around the Mozilla pop-up blocker.
