Firefox Community Forum

For the last 2-3 day I have been experiencing a box that asks for my signature each time I go to a new website. I can't move the box. I can't screenshot it. Does anyone know how I can get rid of it?

In their info Google say the CSE (Client Side Encryption) isn't up to date and won't work. My About Firefox link tells me I am up to date.

Does anyone know what is going on here and how it can be fixed please?

Is there a setting to always show the translation icon in the Firefox desktop address bar?

1. Scenario

I'm visiting a website that is not in my native language. For example, I natively speak English, and the website contains Spanish text.

The Spanish website incorrectly sets lang="en" in the HTML. Here's an example: https://animalessinhogar.com.uy/

My browser's default language is set to US English. When Firefox sees the Spanish webpage declaring the lang="en" tag, it assumes the webpage is in English, and hides the translation icon from the address bar.

1. Issue

The end result is I see this website in Spanish, there's no translation icon in the address bar, and also no way to force a full page translation. The best I can do is select parts of the text, right click, and ask for "Translation Selection to English". This gets very tedious, especially when I have automatic translations for Spanish websites already turned on (browser.translations.alwaysTranslateLanguages = es).

1. Proposed solution

To work around these websites which mis-declare their language, is there a way to always show the translation icon in the address bar?

I had also thought of removing my browser's default language, so that the translation icon would always appear on every webpage. However, that would mean that websites that present different versions based on browser language wouldn't display my native language at first, or might not work at all? So this seems like a less good solution.

1. Firefox details

140.4.0esr (64-bit) running on Debian Linux 13 (Trixie)

Here's some related Firefox config options for translations, and their settings on my browser. I think I've only changed the configuration option to always translate Spanish webpages.

browser.translation.neverForLanguages browser.translations.alwaysTranslateLanguages es browser.translations.automaticallyPopup true browser.translations.chaos.errors false browser.translations.chaos.timeoutMS 0 browser.translations.enable true browser.translations.logLevel Error browser.translations.mostRecentTargetLanguages en browser.translations.neverTranslateLanguages browser.translations.newSettingsUI.enable false browser.translations.panelShown true browser.translations.select.enable true browser.translations.simulateUnsupportedEngine false browser.translations.useHTML false browser.translations.useLexicalShortlist false gfx.canvas.remote.use-canvas-translator-event true services.settings.main.translations-models.last_check 1773722950 services.settings.main.translations-wasm.last_check 1773722950 toolkit.telemetry.translations.logLevel Error

Where can I download a fresh Firefox 115.33.0esr (64-bit) browser for Win-7 because the one I have installed is so corrupted and I can't seem to be able to fix it.

This afternoon, I clicked on a link from an email and for the first time got a choose a profile pop-up. I do not want this; I have read info on Mozilla and elsewhere about its purpose but it doesn't say how to just stop the pop-up - there should be an option just stop the pop-up because I don;t want to have to choose amongst options. I have started copy-pasting the links in emails and going to Chrome and will seriously have to reconsider using Firefox of this continues. I don't want to have to type about:config or anything - this should have been an opt out or opt in thing and I want out. Thank you for your help.

When I launch Firefox, it uses well under 1GB in memory, but then it starts to increase that amount quickly in just a few minutes and gets up to 50+GB, causing error messages to pop up repeatedly until it uses all resources and locks up my computer. I have updated my MAC OS and the Firefox app, uninstalled the Firefox App and still have the same problem.

Please help

I got a new desktop computer and can't access firefox. My existing account is still under my old email ([edited] @q.com) and has been decommisioned. My new email is [edited] @myctl.net. I cannot sign in because I forgot my password for q.com which no longer exists, so I can't receive an email to change password. I am at a loss how to fix this... Can you help me please. I had sent you my new email back a few months ago so I thought it had been changed to myctl.net but it is not. help please, I am so frustrated. thx for your help

Wenn ich mich auf einigen Seiten anmelden möchte, erscheint dann dieses Fenster: ' Zum synchronisieren anmelden' 'und probieren sie andere Schutzwerkzeuge von Mozilla aus'. Ich möchte nichts davon, ich möchte mich nur ganz normal anmelden.

I need help setting my passwords in Mozilla and Firefox. I'm also confused as to what is the difference between the 2 entitities. If there is anyone to guide me would be appreciated.

My sound does not work when using Firefox. But when I switch to the troubleshooting mode in the "Help" menu, the sound works normally. I did not make any changes to sound settings. Sound was fine last night and did not work when I woke the computer up this morning. I am using Windows 11. Going from troubleshooting mode back to normal mode causes the sound to stop working again.

Sporadically over the past year, a virus warning, purportedly from Apple, has locked my FireFox screen. I must Force Quit to unlock FoxFire. See images. Is this a scam?
