Firefox Support Forum

I would like to be able to reset links on a webpage to be as if I have never clicked on them, but I am unable to do so. I have tried:

-Resetting all of the cookies, history, etc for that individual website. -Removing the URLs from the links in question from my browser history. -Downloading this extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/remove-visited-link/ and using it -Going into settings and changing the visited link color.

Nothing has worked so far. One thing about the website in question is it has its own unique color for visited links---I am wondering if that is causing this? Additionally, this persists whether or not I am signed in to this website.

Thanks.

I just got an add-on called LMMS Music Studio. But every time I click on their icon I am taken to something else called "https://www.offidocs.com/edit-lmms.php?username=810908&fileurl=newfileoriginal" Any ideas?

Subject line says it all. I can no longer highlight something, say, in Facebook or from a website, "copy" it and "paste" it into a message. Is it better to try restoring Firefox to an earlier version, or to abandon Firefox and use a totally different browser ? It all worked fine prior to the update today.

Thanks for the help !

Why can I no longer use the Firefox default theme? I can select it, and it is listed as "Enabled" but the plain grey screen keeps showing not the default. Also, is there away to go back to Firefox 88.0.1 and not have it update again? I went to Add-ons & Themes and disable automatic updates but I still got the prompt informing me to restart Firefox to update. Is it just me or is Firefox really getting worse with each update?

Every time I download a file, when the box comes up asking me what I want to do it is set to "Open with" instead of "Save As", so I have to take the extra step of turning it back to "Save As." I don't want to set it to ALWAYS Save As, because sometimes I DO open things in Firefox or other programs, but I want it to be set to Save As by default among those three options, because 90% of the time that is what I am doing and having to add an extra step is slowing me down and putting me off my stride when downloading a number of things at once. There does not seem to be any option to resolve this.

Included is an example. Save As used to be the go-to option. Now it is not, and I can't seem to change this.

You made a change and now I can not pull up my e mail why?

As always, there are two boxes in which to enter search subjects. It has always been my practice to use the larger one, in the middle of the page. Lately (after the homepage's appearance has changed) when I type in the big box and enter it jumps up to the smaller box and will not let me use the other. When I enter a search topic I get a whole list of referrals to intermediary sites and the one I want is far down the page.

I will have to look for a new browser if this can't be fixed. I am very unhappy with this situation.

After this update to 89, page I'm on magnifies to 500% without warning. This keeps happening and I don't know what I'm doing to make it happen. Very frustrating when you're playing online bridge and suddenly, you can't see the cards. How do I fix this? ( yes, I can go to view and revert to normal. But why do I have to do this at all?)

Ok, is Firefox now run by gmail and Bill Gates? This new 'look' is horrible, hurts the eyes and irritates the soul, much like like gmail (which is why I use the basic HTML view there). And like the idiots at Microsoft, every new version is worse than the last (For God's sake, bring back windows 98! It worked, was easy to use, and had a great look, unlike the new Firefox!!!).

1. This started happening since the last proton update.
2. When I open Firefox, it's completely white.
3. I can guess and press the minimize, maximize, and close keys but nothing is visible.
4. I tried opening Firefox in safe mode from command prompt, but even the UI for the prompt for it is white.
5. I am not sure what to do from here on out.
6. Please help. I am unable to use the browser since the proton update.

When printing a pdf from the built-in pdf viewer (pdf.js?) to a network printer, it's so slow as to be unusable. Save the same pdf and open it it in Xreader, click print, and it starts printing immediately. Size of the document seems to play a role; I knew it was slow from trying to print smaller documents in the past, but today I needed a hard copy of a 68MB pdf, and hours later, it still had not printed.

I'm running latest Linux Mint Debian Edition 4 Debbie and latest Firefox in its repositories, 78.11.0esr (64-bit). Printer is Canon imageRunner 2200, it doesn't have any other slow printing problems, as I stated above.

Problem seems to have existed for a long time...

Firefox 89 has changed notification of FF updates so that it's no longer easily possible to find out what's changed in the update. Which means it's more difficult to find out what changes have been made and if it's worth the bother of updating. After an update is downloaded there's yet another popup re: restarting. How about going back to--notifying people of an update and no longer nagging at them until they do and then nagging people to restart their machines? Why become more & more like the corporate nannies, microsoft & google?

I also don't like that FF, which supposedly values user privacy, requires people to set up either a crowdcity account or use a pre-existing account (such as Facebook, twitter, et al) to provide feedback re: firefox. Since when does social media maintain privacy? And the more accounts you have to set up, the more likely that one of them will get hacked. I don't rarely use social media (may look at twitter accounts for traffic information, etc., but don't have a twitter account, etc) and don't have a FB account. I am tired of being required to set up yet another account--particularly since FF provides no information re: Crowdcity's privacy polices and if FF has actually verified any claims that Crowdcity makes regarding

Seems like FF doesn't want feedback from all users only some of them.

Is it possible to return to say FF version 80?

This is a problem I never had a possible solution for.

I would like to have Youtube Music in a separate (pinned) tab, but in the same window as everything else.

The problem I have stems from youtube/google: I have 2 youtube accounts - once under my username, and one under my real name, and I don't remember how I ended up with that. I normally only use the account with my username and the "real name" account is mostly unused. But when migrating from Google Play Music, youtube decided to force me to use the "real name" account for that, and that's what I'm stuck with now.

So I would like to have youtube music, which need to be on account #2 open, whhile all other tabs are on google account #1. And when on the same profile, this is simply not possible. Switching account on one tab switches it for all others.

Is it possible to do that without a separate window open just for youtube music?

I get warnings from my kaspersky anti virus and I don`t know the side and in www you can`t find anything about it.

I have today with different endings from the webside 11 entries.

Can somebody say me what is this? And how I can stop this?

For example 2 entries from the side this say kasperky about it (German):

When I take a Screenshot within Firefox the Screenshot only contains the upper left quarter of the image. Firefox_Screenshot1.png shows how I take the Screenshot and Firefox_Screenshot2.png shows the result. DE: bspwm
