If I delete my history of the websites I go on or delete my emails in which I use Yahoo and Gmail is there a way to save them in case I need some information from them in the future? Another words, they may be deleted in my history and I delete my emails in which i delete them also from my trash folder can I store them someone else that will let me see them in the future? Thanks

Decades ago, browsers had features to download the current web page along with linked pages and store them locally including updating the downloaded main page's links to reference the linked copies. It was even possible to specify how many link levels to copy along with the main page.

when web page sidebars became popular this became problematic for a while since sidebars often linked to ads or unrelated content (Wikipedia or GitHub for example). Then browsers started providing a means to disable webpage sidebars and display only the main page.

I can't find any of that capability in Firefox. I have searched the settings, extensions, Firefox support pages and found almost nothing related to simply saving web pages.

I fear that some day the website 'UESPWiiki' which provides support for my favorite game which is now (2025) 19 years old will some day go away. UESPWiki has side bars preventing simply downloading everything. Help.

"Please create a new version of the browser app that supports the ability to use FileSystemAPI on directories, this is essential for working with a BeatBuddy project and SD cards that are saved on my computer using the online editor."

I have noticed some minor changes in Google Maps. Unfortunately, they have affected the support of Maps in Firefox (135.0): maps are displayed without any names (towns, streets, objects, etc.). Since this bug is not present in the support of Maps in Edge, I think that Firefox requires a correction. When can we expect a fix?

When I try to visit hurleyauctions.com all I get is a blank screen. This problem is a recent development as I have been able to go to this website in the past.

Hello,

I just installed a new version of Linux Mint (Zara) and all is right with Firefox, except the screenshot who doesn't work. The buttons "Capture the visible area" and "Capture the entire page" don't work. The additional tool in the toolbar doesn't work. What can i do, please? Thanks for your answer. Pierre

Reddit is not allowing me to comment on posts. The area where the button to comment is simply black. I can still reply to other comments, post and do everything else but i cannot comment. Commenting works fine on other browsers and the mobile app but doesn't work on firefox specifically. I do not have any extensions.

I want to download a grocery flier without having to use screenshot. The grocery chain does not include a download option. Can I do this with Moxilla Firefox as my browser, on Windows 10

I have saved several files of chat with Google AI. I trusted that Firefox function 'Save page as...is a serious deal. I thought I can save the page and whenever I wanted i could open the page. Firefox have saved several files for each page, but nothing works. When i try to open the file I just get a blank page. Is it like the search bar in the middle of page which does not work? i have been using firefox from the time of release, but recently it frustrate and disappoint me badly!

From of a like question (why now user ids only shown now, then pw field), GeraldR on 2/13.25 @ 17:49 presented this: Walmart.com's user-id field explicitly disables autocomplete:

<input autocomplete="off" id="react-aria-:R15at5j6:" type="text" name="Phone number or email" aria-label="Phone number or email" enterkeyhint="go" autofocus="" class="w_9iFI" value=""> _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If I copy the URL for 'that' sign-in page, place into EDGE, going to the input field, I get a pop-up of saved data. Is there a config setting that needs to be 'flipped' so the site is presented with my saved user ids & passwords again? I have tired of just assuming this is the 'new, how it is'. No replies of just using EDGE, please.

I am not 100%, but a 'REFRESH' has been done, just not sure if it fell in the time of the above no longer functioning as before. I have not tired in SAFE MODE. ENHANCE TRACKING PROCTION is now off ('on' did not work either; all scripts accepted in 'NoScript'; uBlock & Privacy Badger are 'off' for that sign-in page.

When seeing contents on a webpage that may have lasting significance for me, I tend to save it (one way or another), at least for some time.

Earlier, I just used the browser's 'save page' function. This has the little inconvenience that also the folder (containing the HTML elements) comes along, but that can be managed - like creating a separate folder for it, then making a shortcut.

Later, I found software like Fireshot, which is quite practical, but also comes with certain limitations of its own. Ultimately I reverted to saving pages.

Now here's the question: Does the save-page function really save the entire page I'm on? Concretely, I'm thinking of webpages that contain a scrolling chat box. My tests so far seem to indicate that yes, also the entire contents of these will be saved, but I still have some doubts.

Would a knowledgeable user be in a position to remove them with some good arguments, or is there maybe a better way to do it - like those offered after googling for 'browser: take screenshot of contents of scrolling chatbox' (and whose execution was beyond my reach)?
