I searched google with this in the search bar: " HP desktop running windows 10 using Mozilla Firefox and can't disable pop up after I click on File and click onemail link using Firefox browser.

I was unable to find the BLOCK POPUPS under privacy and secyrity and I tried 3 of the other suggestions google gaveme with the search therm listed above e and I can't seem to disable or block the popup after clicking on File, thenclick on email link in your browser.

What happens is: A bluish envelope pops up and makes a sound like it is sending the email link and then the envelope disappeaars. I don't know where it issending the link.

Please try the search term I used in Google and listed above and see if you can figure out a better step by step way to get rid of that POPUP, or block it, or delete itentirely.

I jjust want the old and very convenient esult I had before the update and it was soeasy to email limk and I would type in the address with a shortmessage of why I'm sendingthat link: usually to afamily member or afriend.

Thank you for any help/advice you can offer.

Good afternoon. I now have all my firefox push site notifications set to come through on the desktop even if the browser is closed. However only when I open the browser do the notifications come across as banners and show in the action center on the desktop. How do I have them show without accessing Firefox? Thank you.

How do I ensure that I receive email notifications when there's a response to a question I've posted on this forum?

In my profile settings, "edit settings," I've checked the box "watch forum threads I start," and in "manage watch list" I've checked "questions."

I see I've received a response to a question I posted, but I've received no email. How do I ensure that I receive emails?

"Email me when someone answers the thread" on this page has also been selected.

Also, why are their two separate setting sections as noted above? And why am I only subscribed to the one question (under "manage watch list") I posted earlier today when I've been subscribed to my previous questions in the past? I can't even find an option to subscribe to my other previously asked questions.

This lasts possibly 3 seconds. It has an email logo and a high pitched sound. It just flashes on, not long enough to read, just long enough to be annoying. The location is always on the Top Right corner of the display. I have all notifications and web push blocked in Firefox preferences. System is Mac, OS 12.1

I do not have this message. Have I turned something off, not set a option, or is there a problem with Firefox?

How can I tell if a web page is not being displayed correctly because of a missing pop-up?

My browser (on a second device) is sending me messages that a Trojan has been discovered - will not stop so I uninstalled it. If I download a new browser will the same messages continue? Has this breached the whole of my Mozilla Firefox account?

I am not sure how the architecture works and to clear the other device.

It seems certain sites are prone to fire popup tabs, with any click, right clicks included. I close them immediately and the second click acts normal, getting the nav result I was asking for. How to strength the popup blocking function to stop this distracting behavior? Thanks for any pointers. This may prevent me from staying on FF.

'Dear Customer Support, I use Firefox exclusively as my browser. I use Google Calendar as one of my tags. For a few weeks, a number has shown up to the left and I want to eliminate it. I was referred back to you for help by Google and told it was a listing for “motivations/notifications” and could be “shut off.” I could not even find a listing for “motivations” among the Firefox listings. I would appreciate your help in finding a way to block this number on the Google Calendar tag. Thanks.'

  1. It was not able to summarize the page
  2. It blocked the information I actually needed to see on the page

However, shortly after disabling it I got a pop-up ad advertising the feature! (attached)

How can I stop Firefox from nagging me to create new profiles *without* disabling profiles completely?

For a few weeks now, Firefox desktop (on both Linux & Windows) prompts me on every start to create a new profile. I don't want to create a new profile, nor do I want to disable profiles completely, but most of all, I don't want to be repeatedly prompted. Another peeve is the repeated advertising of the new "summary" feature. New features should be offered *once* with an option to *permanently* dismiss the reminders! Failing this, there should be an option to disable the reminder in settings, without having to use about:config!

based on this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/push-notifications-firefox#w_manage-the-notifications-permission-for-all-websites

i can manually disable the notification requests in a single instance. However, how can i accomplish the same for my other 1000 users in one policy?

I tried different permission notification registry settings, but none seem to work. probably getting lost in the AI web that doesn't exactly know how to fix it.

I’m looking for something i can set in the registry,powershell or by gpo. It should work in all cases, new and existing firefox profiles.
