This support article is inaccurate and doesn't stop firefox from prompting for my windows 11 pin. Is there anyway to actually stop this prompt?

When I sign on to AOL, Mozilla suddenly starts sending pop-ups on the right side! I keep clicking them off but another appears a second later. I get the full block full of notifications numerically which I watch and click on the ones I am interested in. These pop-ups are SO annoying and I dont know how to get rid of them. I've been with mozilla/aol for over 20 years and now that I have a new computer with windows 11 - I'm stuck! Please help

I have Firefox notifications for X.com to still show on the desktop when the browser window is closed. It had been fine up until a couple of days ago and now it only shows notifications when the browser is open. I have push notifications enabled on X.com through Firefox, Firefox settings and Windows notification settings. All software is up to date. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A banner appears upper right of screen, stating firefox has 3 notifications (or 1 or 2 etc) but I don't know where to look for them. Can anyone help? I'm using a MacBook Pro from 2010 (when they knew how to make things that lasted) with firefox version 115.22.0esr on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 (which is apparently the last version I can use as computing has vastly outraced my laptops capacity and we are expected to update everything to catch up with security glitches etc so tough sh*t if everything goes wrong. Welcome to capitalism folks.)

Ahem, but I was saying: where are these notifications and why isn't it obvious?

Up until a coouple of days ago while working in Chrome when a Firefox notification popped up from chat websites in Firefox, I could click on the notification and be switched to the website in Firefox. Now all that happns is the Firefox icon in the taskbar blinks... I wonder if it's due to a recent windows update... I already tried https://www.google.com/search?q=click+on+firefox+notifications+from+google+chrome+doesn%27t+open+the+firefox+window+anymore&rlz=1C1CHZN_enUS1012US1012&oq=&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqCQgBECMYJxjqAjIJCAAQIxgnGOoCMgkIARAjGCcY6gIyCQgCECMYJxjqAjIJCAMQIxgnGOoCMgkIBBAjGCcY6gIyCQgFECMYJxjqAjIJCAYQIxgnGOoCMgkIBxAjGCcY6gLSAQk0MTEwajBqMTWoAgiwAgHxBUR0_OJciqr5&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

While working in Chrome I get desktop notifications from web-based chat applications in my Firefox browser. I would click on the notifications and would be instantly redirected to the Firefox webpage with the new chat. Now when I click on it the Firefox icon in the taskbar just blinks and I have to click on it to open the Firefox window. This just started about 2 weeks ago; I suspect that a Windows update from then may be the culprit. I'm running the latest version of Windows 11 on a HP ProBook 445 G8 Notebook PC.

I think it may be the result of one of the latest Windows updates. I checked the Firefox tabs settings from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-preferences-and-settings#:~:text=Review%20and%20change%20tab%20settings,correctly%20at%20a%20specific%20size. and they're correct. What am I missing?

I have an AOL email account booked marked in the fire fox book make tool bar. It sends notifications when I open the browser. How can I turn off the notifications ?

Thanks Jim

It seems certain sites are prone to fire popup tabs, with any click, right clicks included. I close them immediately and the second click acts normal, getting the nav result I was asking for. How to strength the popup blocking function to stop this distracting behavior? Thanks for any pointers. This may prevent me from staying on FF.

Is there a way to adjust the timing of notification banners being display in the lower right of my screen... I notice that notification for "X (Twitter)" only last a few seconds, which is fine... but YouTube notifications will not disappear unless I select "Dismiss". I looked at Notification setting but don't see anything that seems to address that. Thank You
