Firefox Community Forum

Mozilla Firefox is out of order and disappears. I try to down load it, but the message says that I need to find the Firefox version for windows 8 or 7 . My computer is on windows 10. Can you help ? Thanks.

I have 4 rows of links on my desktop. How can I set these so that every article I read or You Tube video I watch doesn't replace something I want to stay on my desktop?

I recently switched from Chrome to Firefox. Now when I try to login to a platform, my verification codes to my phone are coming through too slow. What is causing the delay?

Hi, I recently had a situation where I closed my browser, and when I opened it back up all my tabs and entire session was gone. There was no option to restore via any of the common or traditional ways. This was honestly traumatizing because I've put so much work into the setup of my tabs/folders, etc., for work purposes. SO MUCH TO LOSE. I ended up finding a partial restore deep in the files on my computer, but it missed the past 6 weeks, which I could never recover.

I'm sure I'm not alone - I've seen many, many posts and people talking about this. I think it's extremely important for Mozilla to ensure that the option of restoring browser sessions remains a reliable one, as many people have important work info, etc.

MY QUESTION: Is there a way to manually set a restore point? In other words, I was able to find the files from the browser session, saved up until 6 weeks ago, but no later than that. So, it's clearly saving sessions somewhere... I'd think it would be easy to prompt it to save at that current point in time asking it to save. Anyone know if possible and how?

Thanks

I have many - sqlite - various addresses on my computer, can I delete these? I am being told by Microsoft that I am out of storage and I need to delete some items.

when I try to log in to https://www.bluemountain.com I get the message that it is "blocked". Why? How do I unblock it?

To start, both Windows and Firefox are running latest versions as of now.

I recently found that Firefox had a list of frequent sites being displayed by right-clicking on any of the Firefox tabs in the Windows taskbar. I found that to disable this, I need to use the "browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled" flag in "about:config". Setting this to false indeed disabled this, but it was replaced by "Recent" tabs instead. There is also "browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled" flag but this does not affect whether or not the Recent tabs list is displayed. Nor does "browser.taskbar.lists.enabled", nor does changing the max number of list items.

The closest I can seem to get it to displaying nothing here is to keep the Frequent list active, and set it to a max of "1" item. Anything else displays a long list of Recent items.

I don't think this is correct behaviour for these flags... If anyone has any other ideas here, that'd be great, thanks!

Aloha — An update to Firefox must have occurred, and I am unable to access my open tabs and bookmarks. I have had a Firefox account for 15 years at least and a lot of information was in my folders and bookmarks. Please let me know how the information can be recovered. I tried to follow several of the instructions provided and was not able to fix the issue. I have a recovery code/Mozilla key, but I am not sure where or how to use it.

I do all my work and personal stuff on Firefox so I need timely assistance to fix the problem.

Thank you, Mike

I would like to propose a change to this section of you browser:

settings/home/firefox home content/shortcuts - the option includes both sites I visit and sites I save.

Is there a way to chose only sites I save? I do not want my browsing history mixed in with the shortcuts I choose to save on my home screen. I have been using firefox on all of my computers and other devices for a long time. I recently had to delete all of my passwords from firefox password manager for a more secure application due to your changes in privacy policy. I need to resolve this setting as well, so that my shortcuts (those I have pinned to my home screen) are not interfered with by browsing history. It does not make sense why I have to choose either both or neither.
