I have had trouble for months logging in to Ticketmaster and Office Depot Canada. Now, I can't use Firefox to access Crave, which tells me that my "IP address is outside of North America." I am not using a VPN, so I don't know why Crave thinks that.
Help?

Sat. 04/19/2025 @9:10 am CDT - Hi. About 2 months ago on any Settings page, FF began to show "your browser is being managed by your organization." The problem is - it's a STANDALONE box, not connected to any network beyond my ISP. I do own websites but I'm not perpetually logged into the host company, so their switch to Microsoft Entra wouldn't have an effect, I would think.
What settings do I change to make FF know that I'm not on a network? Thanks in advance.

How do I remove "firefox browser being managed by your organisation" . I have looked at several posts and don't understand a word of it. I recently re-installed Firefox and lost all my passwords but still have bookmarks, every time I turn off firefox it forgets my account sign in, I then get an email to say I have signged in on a new device. I suspect it is the Norton 360 security software. Please can someone explain in simple terms how to remove it. I have tried contacting Norton but their support is worse than Microsoft.
How do I delete the "Recent bookmarks" list in the program menu, under bookmarks? To me it's completely unnecessary, and have no meaning.

I am trying to free up some disc space, so I ran Disk Cleanup, but no improvement.
It shows over 430MB Temporary Internet Files, all of which are under a padlock icon. The size just keeps on increasing from day to day.
How can I remove some or all these Temporary Internet Files and regain disc space?

Hi, I had an addon installed through github and I had to realise today it vanished without a trace. Not from github, its still there. I just reinstalled it. Vanished from my browser. With all my settings. Non of the firefox addon store addons were affected by the way.
My question thus: What the fuck and how do I prevent that from happening again?

I had a website that possibly phished me in my Firefox browser. I was in a webpage, and I had a full screen McAfee notification for a possible malware and asked to start a scan. I wasn't fully realizing what was happening and I did so. I was able to get out of the full screen mode and realized it was the webpage I was on but wasn't the same page I had been on previously. I started getting security popups as if Microsoft was issuing them, but I couldn't close them, and they all had links to follow. I killed the internet connection, tried repairing Firefox and still got the pop ups. So, I uninstalled Firefox and that stopped the popups. Can you tell me if there are any current security vulnerabilities with Firefox and can you tell me if there is a record of what my Firefox browser downloaded and installed on my computer?

It seems to me that Firefox's DoH implementation is not just pointless but actually harmful. It is security theater. Let me explain:
For DoH to be useful, the user has to invest effort they could better spend setting up a proper system-level solution.

I've seen cites that prove that Mozilla's latest policy updates (thanks for no notice) are now positioning Firefox to sell our data for both ad targeting and AI training purposes. I oppose both, and have no use for Firefox if it joins those already disrespecting and monetizing user privacy in those regards. How do I a) ensure I'm getting the plain language notices of further policy updates, and b) register my dismay with Firefox for this betrayal? While you're coming up with an answer, I'll be discontinuing my monthly support for the Mozilla Foundation. I have HAD IT with the greed people ruining everything.

places.sqlite: this file records EVERY website I've ever visited in a db table! This despite opting out of History and flushing daily It's frustrating that FF surreptiously collects such personal info. Why record every site I visit, date-timestamps, frequency, etc.?
moz_historyvisits_dateindex ON moz_historyvisits (visit_date) moz_places_lastvisitdateindex
As test, I changed the name to places-sqlite.old to see if FF will create a new one It didn't make a new table; re-created the old one.
I need to update FF because of the expired certificates, but would like to clear these out first. Similarly, can I get rid of the icon database? My bookmarks are backed up as JSON and HTML files. I just wished they didn't contain extraneous info

Please assist or advise why Firefox seems to be slowing down my system by memory usage. I have a handful (6) of tabs open on 1 browser session and my system started slowing down so I checked my task manager and it shows that I have more than a dozen of Firefox instances open chewing up almost 90% of my memory.
Please assist or advise me on how to tweak my browser to perform better, and not to show ghost instances
