Firefox Support Forum

No matter what web page, bank, hobby site, news site etc. whenever I hit a hyperlink to go to a page, a form, a new location I never go there. Firefox just opens a new tab with the website https://search.mapseasy.net/is in the browser window.

saving url to "other bookmarks" results in "access denied: you do not have the rights to do this" when an unrelated program wordperfect saves file as microsoft word 97 file, where previous to saving to "other bookmarks" the same file would save as without problem.

"access denied..." is a documented wordperfect problem when converting to word 97, which can be single instance corrected by saving as another word format then immediately re-saving as word 97; though has only been a problem with my system if first saving url to "other bookmarks".

the only working fixes found are - restore system drive to previous backup and discontinue use of "other bookmarks" - run wordperfect as administrator - turn off user access control

baffled as to how saving a url to "other bookmarks" could affect another program -- any suggestions?

firefox esr 52.9.0 wordperfect 10 vista home premium sp2

I must have done something, it was working ok when I recently started using windows 10 after years and years of XP, but can not get it back to how it was - clicking on the + to open a new tab is so muuch easier

Firefox will usually 'freeze' and become unresponsive "(not responding)" which is very annoying as I need it to work constantly as I record live radio station streams. I have a long list of crash reports but still seems to be crashing.

had problems with script warning and the games were running very slow and would freeze. you had change a setting that help but it will not stay on other pages on the same site

It appears that Firefox has blocked windows explorer. I use Vista business but want to upgrade to windows 7. I also get messages that say that I need to install Apple application support but cannot do this either. I have deleted I tunes as a temporary measure because I know this will be a necessary action before upgrading Windows. Thanks for any help.

I am using an ERP database system that is working in firefox extented release till version 52.9.0 ESR. But when new firefox ESR released then it is not working in it till version 60.5.0 ESR. Kindly resolve this issue so I can use new version of firefox ESR.

I've had Setting> Advanced > Firefox Updates > Check for Updates > Never check for updates for years.

About a month ago, by accident (may daughter logged in to my computer on an account that she had't visited for years) Firefox updated. It's created havoc -- even Microsoft Word had to be reinstalled. I've easily lost two days of billable work over the last month trying to rebuild a stable workable configuration.

1. Is there a way to set something so that Firefox will POSITIVELY NEVER EVER EVER update? Can I set some file to some protected mode? Can I delete something? There hasn't been a feature added in about a decade that buys me anything that's worth a risk of 10 minutes of down time. I have deadlines that absolutely do not move, and I cannot afford the unpredictability of updates.

2. If I'm going to lock to some version, is there an "extended extended extended support" version that you recommend? Ideally, it'd be one that still gets security updates (like Windows XP did for many years, and for some security issues, even after the announced end of life in 2012), but I don't need that. I just need stability. Absolute, Rock of Gibraltar stability.

Thanks.

There is no true reason for which I am using an ESR version I could use another but in this moment I have to remain on XP on this PC. So is there a Firefox version that can display the HTML 5 video on a WIN XP PRO SP3?

When I click on my spam folder there always was a selection that said something to the effect "Block future emails" and in the last two days this does not show up when I want to premantently block spam sent to me - makes no sense that this selection is just gone

As I work in the Aviation Industry winch is highly regulated and we have prepared Weight and balance programs using Windows XP we can not change them as the cost of doing so would be over the hill, Also may of the Accounting Programs and other world Airlines are retaining XP because of it proven reliability! As a result We do not want to move form XP and we certainly will not let Micros soft run our Industry to!

Also We also run "Out look Express" as our E-mail program and are not prepared to move to less convent Programs like " M.S.Out Look"
