Firefox Community Forum

When I started using Firefox today, I found that I can't always click to open links. Often right-clicking to open in a new tab works, but I've run into at least one case so far that doesn't.

Examples:

1. the link to go to the log in page for a medical practitioner - right clicking to open in a new tab didn't work, I was able to open it in a private window

2. a "confirm subscription" link in an email - I right-clicked to open it in a new tab

3. I'm logged out of my password manager (Proton Pass) or at any rate when I click on the Proton Pass icon in the toolbar nothing happens - normally it logs in, or if already logged in, then clicking the icon opens the vault.

My computer installed a Windows update yesterday. I haven't futzed with any settings in Firefox or my usual security & privacy extensions recently. Not sure how to start troubleshooting this - aside from turning all of my extensions off just to be sure one of them isn't causing the problem.

Firefox just introduced a cool feature that lets us set custom wallpapers on the home screen—love it! But whenever I try using pictures from my personal library, they don’t fit properly and end up getting cropped. Resizing doesn’t help either, since making the image smaller just ruins the quality.

So, is there a specific format I should be using? Like, does it need to be JPEG only, or will any file type work? And if any format is fine, what’s the ideal one for the best results? I couldn’t find anything in the settings or help pages about this.

If I turn on "always use private surfing", can I not have shortcuts on my Firefox landing page?

I had six shortcuts on my landing page; however, I turned on "always be incognito", and my shortcuts disappeared, and I do not see an option to add them back.

Are the two mutually exclusive?

I used to have an image (dark, stormy sky) in my new tabs, that appeared as a background to my grid of websites (8 columns x 4 rows). Suddenly, I haven't seen it today - just noticed that it's just black. Can't seem to find where to access the different images. Would like the path to find it, or learn if it's no longer available or if I can make my own. Thanks.

I have used Firefox on my PC for ever (10-15 years). Yahoo was set to be my home page so I can get to my email. Starting 5-6 days ago when I click Mozilla Firefox on my task bar it opens a white (blank) page, no yahoo (but it shows yahoo.com in the address bar). I can go to my book marks and got them or type in a URL and go there OK. But, to see my mail I have to open Google Chrome to get to yahoo and log in. If I'm on Firefox and get the blank screen, then go to another URL from my bookmarks then type in yahoo.com it goes back to a blank screen that shows https://www.yahoo.com/ in the address.

How can I permanently fix the quick links on my new page can I permanently fix the quick links on my new page

Some of the links in the attached image I added. Others that I added have disappeared and have been replaced randomly by Firefox.

Something went drunk and now my blank page no longer lists the links i want it to. Used to be once upon a time that the browser showed (as setup) 2 rows of links for ease of access.

Refer to screenshot if i fail to make sense.

This has been asked before here, but it seems currently there is no solution:

Firefox's default behavior when using the mouse middle-click on an empty area of the tab bar area will create a new tab; I don't want this behavior. How can I disable it?

On the posts I found here, they mention using UserChrome.css, I enabled it and tried, doesn't work. custom styles are enabled but not disabling this feature.

I use DisplayFusion on my multi-monitor setup since years, and middle-clicking a window title bar or Chrome tab bar or Firefox tab bar will move the current window to a second monitor.

Currently with Firefox, middle-clicking the tab bar will move the window to the second monitor AND open a new tab. I use it a lot with YouTube, so when I move a playing video to the second monitor, I get an empty tab with audio in the background.

I recently moved from Chrome to Firefox, but this is driving me crazy.

Hello!

Is there a way to get the icons for Shortcuts on the New Tab page to update their image to show the pinned site's favicon, instead of the Firefox default icons, without manually updating all of them in the "Edit" menu for the icon?

It seems like they should update automatically, like your bookmarks in the Bookmarks menu do, when you visit the site.

I read another Discussion where they said to delete some favicon files in %AppData% > Roaming > Mozilla > Profiles , but those steps did not work for me.

Thanks!
