Firefox Community Forum

Good day On this website kwv.co.za and specifically here: https://kwv.co.za/kwv-brandy/ When I click a product the browser does absolutely nothing but it does show the url link in the bottom of my desktop as per usual link behaviour. I then have to literally refresh the page or browse away and return here before the links work. This is specific to Firefox. I have tried everything I can to solve this to no avail. Can anyone shed light on ths please Regards

For some reason this webpage will not load? Why? https://onedrive.live.com/?view=8&photosData=%2Fmoments%2FOnLastWeek%2FMXxzPTIwMjQtMDktMDhUMDA6MDA6MDBaJmU9MjAyNC0wOS0xNFQyMzo1OTo1OS45OTlaJnQ9MjAyNS0wOS0xNlQwMDowMDowMFomcj0yMCZydD00Jg%3Ftitle%3DLast%2Bweek%26subtitle%3DOver%2Btime

I've been backing up my opened tabs for the past 4 or 5 years with the steps in this legendary post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1257866

But this time it failed me and I don't know why. I just switched from Debian to Linux Mint, put everything up to date, but when I copy the sessions-store folder back into my session folder, as described in the post, nothing happens. I tried restoring only the 2 files listed there, and also dropping them in the general user folder, outside sessions-store, but still nothing. I've also noticed that the sessions-store folder isn't created automatically, even if I open a bunch of new tabs now and close the browser.

I don't even know how to begin troubleshooting this to be honest, this is the first time this method's ever failed me :(

I also saw this post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-restore-browsing-session-backup But it doesn't help either.

How do i fix this

I was using Clean My Mac and it recommended that I clean some files that Firefox was using. I did not realize that one of them was my password file. I rely heavily on Firefox to fill in passwords. Is there anyway to recover the file? I do have Time Machine backups on my MacBook.

I am noticing what I think is a bug with Google and Firefox Container tabs.

Currently: If I have a non-google site open in a particular container tab (say, LinkedIn.com on a LinkedIn container tab that I've designated as green colored), and then I make another new tab in that same container, and I type in google.com, Firefox automatically switches the tab type from the green LinkedIn container tab type to a colorless no-container tab, and, on top of that, because I am signed in to google in my no-container tab, it signs me in to my account.

Expected: When I open a new tab in a container, and I go to google.com, that the Firefox tab remain in that green container tab type and not switch me to a different tab type where I'm signed in to Google and it's tracking me.

Note: I am not looking for workarounds -- I have already been able to work around it myself. Rather, I am trying to report this as a bug.

I prefer all my login accounts to log out when I close Firefox. All of my settings are set up to do so, nothing changed, yet suddenly for the last week or so, it has simply stopped logging me out. Every day when I log in, there everything is again. I keep rechecking all my settings, even turning them back off and on, and nothing is fixing this. What's going on?

I asked this same question in Reddit and got a reply to uncheck "delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed", close all Firefox windows, and reopen them, and this did not correct the problem. Please advise.

thank you ric

Google told me to go to About.Config, find "browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon" then change the value to false. But, at least in my version of FF, that doesn't work because browser.tabs.showAudioPlayingIcon isn't listed. I'm running 142.0.01.

I know FF is trying to please all the wonderful teenagers who want to constantly screw around with software settings. But it would be really nice if such new "features" were not turned on automatically.

On the page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-restore-browsing-session-backup , I'm flummoxed by the meaning of bullet point 10. It reads: "Copy your chosen file into the main profile folder. (Not the original sessionstore-backups folder, but the one above it.)"

What does 'above' mean here? Copy it into the folder that holds the original 'sessionstore-backup' folder? Seems an odd thing to do, given that there is no file with a similar name sitting loose within the Profile.

And I have tried that and it doesn't seem to work. Just want to check I'm reading this correctly before I persist. Thanks
