Other than the most used sites, maybe five, firefox will not follow search for any new site, occasionally after three or so attempts. I have checked my security settings but i still feel like that is what is causing the issue.

How do I keep Firefox from losing the internet connection just cause I don't want to close all the tabs I've had open the past week or so? I've tried clearing the cookies, and then reloading my open tabs, but it ends up losing the connection, just the browser itself. Other browser still works. Completely closing all tabs and restarting Firefox gets it working again, but dare I reload the previous session again, open all the tabs (acts like it's going to work), but then loses connection.

Hi, I have trouble in login. I set 2nd authentication with wrong app, and I didn't backup my recovery key. I also formatted my desktop, so I cannot find recovery key, didn't set firefox sync, and all of my device wasn't connect with my ID.

In this case, how I can recovery my ID...?

And if I cannot recovery my ID, can I delete addon that already being distributed.

Dragging and dropping files collapses and locks Firefox bookmarks menu

121.0.1 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Professional. I'm a Leo and like long walks on the beach.

For months, I've experienced the Bookmarks menu collapsing (Bookmarks Toolbar, Bookmarks Menu, and Other Bookmarks headings appear but all bookmarks are just gone) and locking up (those headings cannot be opened and closed).

I have finally noticed that this happens when I am using Windows File Explorer to drag and drop files into my Google Drive opened with an entirely separate Google Chrome browser running concurrently with Firefox.

To be clear, I have Google Chrome and Explorer at the top of my desktop, with Firefox running behind them. When I drag a file from Windows Explorer over to the Google Chrome browser, the side bookmarks window in Firefox goes haywire. Close and reopening the bookmarks menu brings it back, but the issue remains.

When sharing a specific window in Google Meet, *ALL* popups from extensions will show on Google Meet

When using Google Meet, you are given the option to share your screen — either the entire screen, or a specific Firefox window.

I've noticed, however, that no matter what Firefox window is used, if you access an extension that creates a pop-up dialog, such as the Container selection button from Conex, the uBlock origin settings popup for each webpage, or a password manager pop-up such as Bitwarden, those popups will appear on the shared window, even if you decide to do this from another Firefox window altogether.

This is a major security concern for me, as I've had circumstances where the password entry window for Bitwarden will appear on any window, even if I open the extension pop-up from a window not being shared to Google Meet. I'm not sure where to submit this issue, so I'm starting from the Mozilla support page and going from there. Would appreciate anyone's help on getting this issue resolved. Thank you.

When I go to a website that can push notifications, next to the url there's this animation that you can click to allow the notifications. I want to turn off this animation. This question has been asked before and the answer was: "Go to about:config and set dom.webnotifications.enabled = false". I did this, but I still have the animation. What should i do?

There exists a problem, or at least I think it is, that I have with the New Tab page. If I have a website I visit on a daily basis like Discord and Twitch, and want to get rid of it from my New Tab page by clicking on the "Delete from History" button, I expect it to disappear within a single click although it doesn't happen in that way. Instead, I need to repeat the process by many tens of times just for it to be gone, and it frustrates me. Looking for alternatives that I don't fundamentally understand, mainly found in the settings, also don't do any good.

So what's the issue? My best solution is just to keep on what I was doing until it's gone.
