I'm not sure what this feature is called in Firefox lingo...

On my Mac, Firefox will remember which windows belong on which virtual desktops, and so open up with them on the correct (well, not exactly, but sorta) virtual desktops after a restart of the app.

On my new Windows 10 installation, though, Firefox has learned that a specific window was moved to virtual desktop 2, and now INSISTS that that window should always open on the desktop after a restart, regardless of on which desktop that window was actually placed when Firefox was shut down.

Is there a quick fix for this issue, or at least some way to disable this feature?

Thanks :)

Since I updated firefox, something has been wrong. Twice now it's like the browser has just stopped working. When I use google, and I change the search. The page html keeps changing back and forth between the two pages.

What's worse, is that the connection stops working. I can't get any of the pages to load. I thought it was the WIFI connection but then I started using Microsoft Edge and it's fine. It's not the WIIF. It's the FIREFOX MOZILLA browser that is not letting me load the pages. Which is annoying as hell because I use YouTube a lot and the videos won't play. Or stop loading in the middle. There has to be something that can be done about this.

I recently started having an issue trying to log in to my ATT email account at Currently.com. When I try to long in I get a message saying "Logout Successful". It was close to the time of a Firefox update which could be coincidental. I can log in using Chrome OK. Has anyone else reported this issue?

AT&T support claims to have no idea what would be causing this problem. They have had this bug for several years.

Over the past couple weeks of updates, the about:processes page is now missing several elements, such as the memory usage, CPU usage, and the close (X) button for each process/tab. See attached screenshot. Normally each row would show the memory, cpu, and if it's a closeable tab, the X button would be on the far right upon hover.

Browser: Firefox Developer Edition 135.0b3 64-bit, build 20250110123854 OS: Windows 10 22H2 64-bit (Windows_NT 10.0 19045)

I've noticed my GPU fan runs heavily as soon as I open Firefox, and with even just only one browser page open, it runs high speed, where it didn't use to do this. How can I get Firefox from requiring so much of my power. I don't want my electric bill higher just because of a browser. I have a decent GPU good for gaming quality that usually doesn't get clocked enough to cause the fan to turn on and run at high speed unless it's a high-graphics computer game or something. Anything I can do to make the browser demand less on my GPU?

Starting early this morning I could not open a website (where I purchase supplements) I have accessed in the recent past. I added the address to the DNS listing but that didn't help. In the verification lock icon in front of the address it says the connection is secure. But below it states the Connection verified by a certificate issuer that is not recognized by Mozilla. Prior to 1/22/25, I had no issues opening this or other websites. It doesn't matter if I have my VPN turned off or not, the website does not open. Was the Mozilla update of 1/22 the cause? If so, how do I rectify the issue I currently have? If not, how do I rectify the issue I have?

my new monitor offers a screen where I can shut down, sleep, or restart.......I usually chose sleep, because I think it allows me quicker access to my browzer home page when moving the mouse for reboot. However, about six or more times now, the sleep mode will stop, a "don't interrupt" message in ghost script in the upper left hand corner of the screen comes on, the an HP logo with a dizzing circular moving gif suggest the computer is starting........no so. I have waited 30 minutes or more, started and stopped with the power button, hit every key on the board and swear prolifically now and then with NO results.

Using a fairly new HP computer, win 11, and version 134.0.2 of FireFox......AND, I'm a good guy. I think so, anyway. What am I doing wrong. It seems that each time this happens, if and when the computer will restart, that FireFox has an update in the wings and needs to have that installed before I move on to use the pc. Is there a connection?
