Hi!

I am getting messages that I am blocking ads for many of my internet requests. I had never received these before but all of a sudden I started to get them. I have tried a number of things but nothing works.

I am running Windows 11 and do not have any Ad blockers.

vary unhappy with the new update. never have had issues with fire fox like this. when going to zillow.com i get this message: upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: connection termination. I noticed this is only the fire fox browser having this issue. i have already disabled ad blocker and vpn reset fire fox lost all my tabs! reset the computer and nothing still, i get the same message. i have used fire fox since it was a thing and recommending it always. getting a different browser right now to do my house buying, i don't feel safe using fire fox for this adventure any longer. my apologies if this seems like an emotional decision but i see this in everything that gets to big they lose the plot its an infection that is embedded in everything now, windows, home and car pricing. major changes to os and how its used. company's hate there customers anymore and were noticing.

Ok, for some stupid reason, sometime in the past month or two, I think one of your updates completely incapacitated my ability to paste images into sites that allow me to paste images, such as chat gpt or search engines. This is terribly inconvenient and annoying. Please either fix it or tell me what setting in your mess of settings fixes it

New laptop. Installed Firefox. Set up 2 of the "new" type profiles. Typical extensions (Bitwarden, Bit.ly, Firefox Color). Not too long after, Firefox will no longer launch and the only remediation I've found is to do a clean uninstall/reinstall including deleting registry keys. I've now done this three times now. Environment information

  • i7 Core Ultra/32GB RAM
  • SentinelOne - Corporate Environment. Installs Firefox Extension. There are no signs in the S1 portal or client that it is blocking firefox.
  • nVIDIA RTX PRO 500 Blackwell Video Card. Updated to current driver 582.16
  • Threatlocker - Computer is new and has been in "Learning Mode" so it isn't an issue
  • Tailscale runs on this machine, but it doesn't seem to make a difference if it is running.

Nothing in the %APPDATA% crash reports folder for firefox. Crash dumps for firefox are in %LOCALAPPDATA%/CrashDumps. One read by AppCrashView is attached. It is a 0xc0000005 Access violation in StackHash_2264.

This is a problem where renaming the firefox.exe to firefox1.exe will get it to run but it seems to lose track of profiles.

Firefox is my favorite browser and I'd like to resolve this, but I really can't afford spending much more time on it or continually clean reinstalling and rebuilding profies. I've seen other similar posts, but no clear resolution.

Having issues with the browser often appearing distorted, text and images failing to load, videos showing up blank etc.

Problem disappears when in troubleshooting mode but after several refreshes the problem returns almost immediately, making using Firefox incredibly frustrating.

Good morning. I don't know how to describe it well much less grab a screenshot as it happens so quickly. Occasionally when I open Firefox which is always full screen a blank/black smaller browser window opens/appears for a second or so and then the browser opens as normal. It does not happen every single time. It's like on the way to opening the browser takes a step and then activates. The browser is up to date and seems to be working fine. I am attempting to catch a screenshot but as I said it is so quick. I don't know how to describe it any better. If anyone can help I would certainly appreciate it. I have run multiple antivirus, malware and spyware programs and found no issues.

I would like to setup Firefox so it checks for updates and installs them during maintenance windows (overnight) and runs the updates as 'system' account.

I tried using the following GPO settings

Application Autoupdate Enabled Background updater Enabled Disable Firefox Studies Enabled Disable Telemetry Enabled Disable Update Disabled Don't Check Default Browser Enabled

This seems to create Schedule tasks in Windows task scheduler, but the tasks are running as previously logged on user accounts. which doesn't help us in this particular environment.

I know we can manually push out the latest version via creating new MCM application pushes but the amount of updates that are coming down is a labor intensive exercise and we don't have the budget for PatchMyPC

Please post any thoughts!

Saving a bookmark to a specific folder has never worked in Firefox. Never!

Add bookmark > Location > Choose > search the specific folder > the scrollbar does not move down!

You can search (browse) the specific folder with the scroll wheel of the mouse, with the arrow key of the keyboard, you can slide the scrollbar up and down with the *very small* arrows on the scrollbar, but you cannot slide the scrollbar with the most essential and easiest way by moving it up and down with the mouse. By that I mean: clicking the scrollbar with the left mouse button and move it down and up.

THIS HAS NEVER WORKED IN FIREFOX. It works just randomly. Sometimes very rarely it works, usually it doesn't work. Why is that?

Firefox 147, Windows 11.
