I have been having problems with firefox lately. Every time I try to run the program it automatically closes without giving an error message. I am running Windows 10 and this happens in safe mode as well. I have tried doing a clean install of firefox - that did not fix the problem. I tried deleting my profile after uninstalling then doing a fresh install, this did not fix the problem either. I ran a virus scan and did not detect any malware. I don't know what else to try.

I'm trying to find an add-on that will show the "Watched" badge on Youtube. I was using a Mac computer & I had an add-on there that worked. I just started using my new Windows 10 computer, I installed the same add-on I had on the Mac, but it doesn't work on the new computer. Can anyone help? Does anyone know of any add-ons that will work?

When I open a NEW WINDOW, how can I have the cursor default to the URL/ADDRESS bar, thereby allowing me to type immediately without having to click the bar? I ONLY use blank home page and blank tabs. By the way, when I open a new tab the cursor is already in the URL/ADDRESS bar. I simply want the same thing for opening new windows.
Thank you for you time.

Enhanced Tracking Protection appears not to be working

I'm running Firefox 71.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Professional (1803), and have enabled Strict Enhanced Tracking Protection.
Yet, no matter what website I visit, the shield icon remains grey, i.e., it never turns purple. The details that I see when clicking the icon confirm that Enhanced Tracking Protection is On for this site, but that No trackers known to Firefox were detected on this page.
But, duckduckgo Privacy Essentials readily identifies trackers that it has blocked, e.g., googletagmanager.com.
So, I thought that perhaps DDG Privacy Essentials was interfering with Firefox Enhanced Tracking Protection, so I removed that extension.
Still Enhanced Tracking Protections says that it cannot identify any known trackers, regardless of what site I visit. That can't be accurate. Even at Yahoo.com, it says that no trackers are known to Firefox.
What could be going wrong here?
Thanks!

Earthlink E-mail both old and new versions do not work properly in Firefox 57 and higher. The function tabs above any message (print, delete etc.) don't respond to clicking. They used to work just fine. Everything works in IE but I use Firefox. The Options are set to open tabs in new windows as always. Earthlink tech support says it's Firefox's problem.

Hi everyone.
I'm trying downloading my files from google drive, but this error message always shows up:
The page isn’t redirecting properly
An error occurred during a connection to doc-0o-74-docs.googleusercontent.com.
This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.
I tried a lot of solutions but none of them work: - Clear data, cookies - Delete cookies.sqlite - Refresh FF, use in Safe Mode, Private Mode - Reinstall FF - Turn off Tracking Protection.
I just bought a new laptop and install newest version of FF and got this error. I can download the files using Chrome, Ms. Edge. I also can download using FF 71 on my old laptop (Windows 8.1)
Please help me with this problem. Thank you very much.

I have installed the YouGov Pulse add-on, authorised it, etc., but each time I close the browser it deletes the add-on and I have to go through the hassle of reinstalling it. This is not happening on any other browser, so perhaps you could get your shit together and actually function?

Could you please consider making the screenshot feature remember the previous save directory in the same way as saving downloaded files does? I love that implementation ("browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite") and having it applied to saving screenshots would save me (and others!) a lot of clicking. :) It could be an opt-in feature, if needed.
Thanks for making the best browser!

Hi,
Thanks to Mozilla for continuing to develop such a clean browser, with movies made of GIF instead of much larger files.
So we have developed an extension or add-on for many years using the same method. But recently ( maybe I forgot ), with a new developer profile, I am unable to edit any files because the .xpi extension in the extensions folder, is compressed and cannot be navigated in a file Explorer.
In the past, I just install the extension and change the file extension from .xpi to .zip, and then extract into a folder with the same name. Then delete the .xpi/.zip folder, and the new folder acts as a pointer for the same instance of installation. And I can just modify the files in that folder usually and I don't need to restart the browser to see the changes. But lately I cannot do this.
What is the best way to debug the add-on with the least number of steps?
Thanks,
Josh

When a web interface offers image upload options, Firefox 70.0.1 on Windows 10 does not offer up any regular jpg or jpeg file extensions. All I get by default is that weird jfif format, together with png. What's that all about, and how can I fix it?
Image uploads work fine if I choose to display "all files", but something's amiss with the filtering there.
On a related note, Firefox used to save regular jpg images in its own Save Image As dialogue as jfif files too. I had to teach it to do this in jpg instead. Might be a related issue?

I have a Youtube video in a open tab and upon restarting and restoring the page, it reloads and tells me that the video was removed. I tried to look in the history to see what the video was called, however, it turns out that when reloading the page, no matter how old the tab is, it will remove the old history entry of when you first visited the site. Is there any way to stop, or set a time limit, to this behaviour?

I see that this issue has been addressed before in this community...however none of the replies made sense to me. Please... if you know how to fix this issue... reply with a clear description of it. Or at least send it to firefox....This forum is apparently the only way to resolve issues....since I have not found any way to directly contact Mozzilla/firefox.

I have tried to enable two-step authentication for Firefox using Authy 2-factor Authentication app for several times, but to no avail. Prior to trying to enable it for Firefox, I succesfully enabled two-factor authentication for my Facebook, Google and Microsoft accounts. After trying it for Firefox, I also did it for my PayPal account, so the Authy app doesn't seem to be the problem here. I tried typing the six numbers with and without space in between and multiple times in two consecutive days, bot nothing seems to work. I read the QR code succesfully and added Firefox on Authy, but the code just always seems to be incorrect (I'm not sure how to translate it in english, I am using Firefox in Finnish, see the attached image). I censored all the codes in the image.
I would really like to get this to work, as two-step authentication seems to be a good way to make my account a lot more secure.

In Outlook for Office 365 if I click to view an email in a web browser, it opens in Internet Explorer 11 or Microsoft Edge, neither of which I want to use. I haven't found any way of changing the default to Firefox. In the Office file association wizard I ought to be able to associate the file types .mht, .mhtml, .url etc with Firefox but my options seem to be locked down within Windows 10 Home. 'Choose where to get apps' is set to 'anywhere' but I'm forced towards the MS Store where Firefox is not acknowledged as an app. Surely I can solve this without having to switch to Windows 10 Pro? Grateful for all help.
