Firefox Community Forum

The cursor changes from the Hand, Caret back to a normal cursor when hovering. Also sometimes the cursor disappears entirely. Moving the mouse temporarily makes it visible again. The latter is especially annoying and it occurs on most websites including even the Firefox Add-on site. Refreshing the Which suggests it is not related add-ons (at least most of them anyway).

I have a different browser with the same user.js (BetterFox) and same chrome.css. However, I was not able to replicate it there. Maybe I need to have open many dozens of tabs. No issues with my browser otherwise, performance or memory. Anybody else have this issue or can help troubleshoot and find the cause?

I installed a voice recognition feature on my Replit-built app, and when I activated the app, I received the error message: 'Your browser does not support voice recognition. Is there any version of Firefox that supports voice recognition?

Current situation: I start Firefox and it starts maximized. When I move the mouse cursor to the lower edge of the screen, the taskbar should unhide but it remains hidden. To correct for this by dragging the window so it resizes (floating window) and then maximaze by pressing the maximize button on top right. Now the task bar unhides as expected.

If I drag the window so it resizes (floating window) and then maximaze by dragging it to the top edge of screen, then the taskbar again wont unhide.

I must do this every time I open a new Firefox window.

I can replicate this whenever I want.

I'm watching a movie and every around 2 minutes the movie stops and says you aborted media playback. i have drm content checked, turned off acceleration, and allowed the website to autoplay. i have no adblockers or security protectors activated on that site. and i am not using a vpn.

When I start Firefox it's not asking for my primary password.

It's not autofilling an important site and I need to access my password for it, but when I try to access passwords I don't get the 'enter primary password' box, just a message at the top of the browser window telling me to enter it and a button saying 'log on'. There's nowhere to enter the passowrd and the log on button does nothing.

This is midly terrifying...

When I log into apps and other sites FF is displaying and recommending current and/or old login information. I do not want FF to make any login recommendations for me.

I see that this addon called Rotate Youtube Video (+ Zoom / Mirror) is restricted for violating Mozilla policies.

Has anyone taken look into it what was exact violation? I am curious if it was stealing info on background? It just says it violated policies but I want to know if it is safe to keep using it? Like if it was disabled for legal reasons then I would not care but if it was disabled for containing malware then I would care. Any ideas?

Hi!

Since I came back from 3 weeks off, it seems Firefox is not able to produce sound. I followed "What to do if Firefox won't play sounds" and "Fix common audio and video issues" but none of them seem to have resolved the issue.

I tested on Twitch, YouTube and mdn web docs for <audio>. None of them work.

• Volume control : https://i.imgur.com/w12jObX.png (the output device is correct: https://i.imgur.com/hSkMIWS.png)
• Reload the website : done
• Allow autoplay of media with sound : https://i.imgur.com/JWN0FYl.png
• Media Feature Pack : should not be applicable, I'm on Win 10 Home https://i.imgur.com/kjutTM7.png
• DRM : unrelated (audio on mdn doesn't work either)
• Clear the cache: done
• Disable interfering extensions : reseted profiles in about:profiles and during my tests I deleted C:\...\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla after a re-install
• Firefox settings : done, reseted as part of about:profiles deletion

Chrome, Edge and other applications don't have issues.

What am I missing? Thanks!

Good evening, my MX Anywhere 3S mouse started to exhibit a strange behaviour recently.

I have been using the 2 side buttons on the mouse being mapped to "Show/hide desktop" and "Escape" respectively.

In Firefox web browser, instead of "Escape" it inputs a "2" (number key) and the "show/hide desktop" shortcut triggers the "left Shift"

if i change position, size in private browsing

normal browsing window is changed as last private browsing window size

wtf is this ?

this never happens in chrome

I've done everything, and watch every video there is on how to remove firewall on binance or any crpyto/stock exchange platform. I WANNA BE ABLE TO USE MY PC TO INVEST AND DO MY JOB BUT THIS SEARCH ENGINE WONT LET ME

Hello, I am running scripts (Javascript, VSCode, for automated software testing(websites). Testing with Javascript en Cypress but tests do not run when FF browser is selected, No error message.. In %temp% there is no geckodriver.exe. The Cypress window just keeps showing a spinner and nothing happens, the test does not load and run on FF browser. The other browsers available to use(Chrome/Edge/Electron) can be selected and Cypress runs the tests with no problem or issue. It seems a geckodriver needs to be installed but how and where is not clear to me. Does anyone know how to get Cypress to run the test on the FF browser? Cypress Version 14.5.4, Node version v22.18.0 LTS, Windows 10 Pro. FF 141.0.3 Perhaps any Cypress+FF ninja testers here as well that could help me to get this solved?

I have lost my History and Bookmarks. A message appears 'The bookmarks and History system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem' I use Asast One and Malwarebytes. Can you help please? I am not very technical so if you can put an answer in very basic terms that would be appreciated. Thank you. Arthur Moody

For some reason, starting since last week, whenever I try to upload something online, instead of opening the most recent folder I uploaded from like it used to, Firefox keeps opening the same folder. Although, for some reason, this mainly happens on YouTube. Is there a fix for this?

Don't know if it's the latest Firefox or latest Windows 10 update or what but since the last Windows update happened I cannot open Firefox. I get the message "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window." Task Manager shows 4 firefox processes including 1 crashhelper and 3 firefox approximately 70 mb, 4 mb, and 32 mb. I tried to disable the SkeletonUI by editing omni.ja but that didn't help. I tried uninstalling and that didn't help. I tried the refresh option first but ran into the same open process error so that wasn't an option. I am quite stumped. Any advice appreciated. The lock file shows up as SkeletonUILock-c388d246 in appdata/Local/Mozilla/Firefox and it disappears when Firefox is manually booted from Task Manager. It can't be examined when it's extant since it's in use by the Firefox process (presumably)
