My Canon printer disconnected from my computer after Firefox offered me CutePDF writer printing which I did not take.

The drop down menu for printers under settings no longer shows my Canon, only this Cute one.

Not Cute...Need to be able to print.

Connection to Zoom on this same desktop is not working right. The meeting flashes on and off. Ideas?

Thanks, Karen

Im not sure when the issue first started as Firefox updates quite often. Here is the issue: When logging into my router settings page locally,(http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to access router on network), the forms constantly overlap. For example there is a form on the left that shows each settings page and the form on the right which is the settings i currently have selected.

When each settings form is loaded it is overlapped by the form on the right. To fix it i zoom in or out. And the forms re-align. But then they almost immediately snap back making it almost impossible to enter any data. This has not been an issue in the past, but i havent had to adjust my router setting for a while. It's driving me insane, so much that i installed a chrome browser just to access my router info. But i would prefer to use firefox as i do not like chrome.

This is also on both an old install and a brand new install of windows 10 and new install of firefox.

The router is a c4000bg from centurylink.

Thank you for any assistance in the matter.

1)Why did my "thumbnails" to linked stories on my firefox homepage stop loading yesterday? Still not getting them.

2) I received a message a while ago that I need to update firefox or ti will stop working properly. My questions are: - when do I have to update by? - when Microsoft sends me a required update (almost every 3 months or so) they have to restart my laptop ... that wipes out my bookmarks. Will that happen with a the firefox update? That's why I've been reluctant to update.

I do backup and re-enter my bookmarks from a USB drive and reload them after a restart ... but then I also have to reenter passwords for several regular sites and it's a pain in the ass.

Thank you in advance

I'd like to try enabling Tab Groups in Firefox 135.0 (64-bit). But I don't want to risk scrambling my gazillion or so tabs if Tab Groups is not stable.

I'd appreciate some feedback from Firefox users who have enabled Tab Groups.

I'm running Windows 10 version 22H2

(btw my browser is Firefox Nightly) Don't get me wrong, I love having vertical tabs. It's less busy than the horizontal tabs and I can look through my tabs more quickly. But, the way it's implemented sucks - It makes the layout of the webpage pop anytime I use it; there is no keyboard button attached to opening and closing the tab (I have to go through my horizontal bar to open my vertical bar); and recently my browser forgets the sidebar settings, meaning I have to re-check the "Hide tabs and sidebar" setting.

Bonus request Can the sidebar just go over the webpage (i.e. like the application menu) instead of squishing it? I'm ok with having some webpage features temporarily covered if it means I don't have to see the screen pop into a new rectangular shape every time I switch tabs.

I use translation A LOT. (I'm learning a foreign language.) It would help to be able to move or resize the results window. Right now, it covers the original foreign language text. I want to compare the translation with the original text and the fixed size and position of your results window makes that a lot more difficult.

What are the best ways to optimize Firefox for faster startup and quicker page loading? I’ve disabled unnecessary extensions and cleared cache regularly, but I’m wondering if there are other advanced settings or about:config tweaks that can further improve performance.

Are there specific recommendations for reducing resource usage, especially on lower-end hardware? Any insights on balancing speed and functionality would be greatly appreciated!

When using firefox, and only when using firefox, I experience quite a lot of lag when using "google docs" (https://docs.google.com) and only when using "google docs", eg. this does not apply to, say, MS Word or google presentations.

Like I said this only applies to firefox, meaning google chrome and microsoft edge both work fine.

Here are some of the troubleshooting steps I've tried, without success:

  Launching in troubleshooting mode
  Disabling 0-RTT
  Disabling hardware acceleration

These issues do not appear on my machine at home, which also uses firefox, that however is a different version of Windows, an AMD cpu and a dedicated GPU instead of integrated, so idk if that narrows it down even one bit...

The computer on which the issues appear on is a HP Spectre x360 14, which if you don't want to search it up means I have 32gb of RAM @ ~7500MT/s, and an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H as my CPU.

I'd love to keep using firefox without having to fire up chrome every time i need to write/edit a document, which, as a student, is quite often...

Thanks a lot!

The logo in the top left-hand corner of my website's landing page does not display using Firefox but is displayed properly using every other desktop browser. Using Firefox, just my name is displayed in place of the logo. Chrome for Android has the same problem but Firefox for Android displays OK. On my iPad both Chrome and Firefox display properly. What are the reasons for this? Is there some upper limit for the dimensions of the logo (mine is oblong in shape)? Do I have some settings that don't suit certain browsers? My site was built using Wordpress/Elementor/OceanWP. Many thanks in advance for an answer!

I appear to have two Firefoxes running at the same time. A notice saying I have another Firefox running appears when I turn on my computer in the morning and boot up. It then asks how I want to proceed and gives me two choices. When I click “Close Firefox” the notice disappears and my Firefox windows start running.

How do I find the Firefox running in the background and get rid of it?
