How do I stop these recurring update notices? Every 3 seconds. I'll update when I am ready as this current one does not affect me at all. For a while I fell for it, stopped what I was doing and did the ridiculous update, it still continues! I can move on to a different non-Mozilla browser if I have too. Return the option to not update and/or do it manually. FF127.0.2

Previously the "copy without site tracking" was highlighted and accessible in privacy mode but now I see it as 'not highlighted' or 'turned-off' in privacy mode. What would cause that change when I haven't made any Privacy or Security Setting changes? So basically, 'How do I get the - copy without site tracking - to reactivate in Privacy mode (or at any time really)? Sincerely, Michael Addison

Until the other day I was able to simply sign in to my various Yahoo email accounts password by using my 1Password saved password. Now,when I try to log into my Yahoo email accounts I get a popup window (see attached screen-print) saying that Windows Security wants to make sure it's me and that "This request comes from Firefox, published by Mozilla Corporation. Insert your security key into the USB port." Then I have to click the "Cancel" button, click "Try signing in another way" link and I can then sign in as I use to with my 1Password stored password.

These extra steps that are now required to sign-in to my Yahoo email accounts is very annoying and frustrating.

This current version of Firefox (126.0) is preventing Yahoo! Comments from showing/displaying in ANY Yahoo! article. After I finished reading a Yahoo! article, the Yahoo! Comments is viewed but upon clicking on Comments, it just disappeared. It happens in any Yahoo! article with Comments. I used Safari to see if I experience similar issue but Safari is able to show/display Yahoo! Comments upon clicking on them. I have no other browser plug-in or app in Firefox preventing Yahoo! Comments from showing, it seems to be a Firefox JavaScript issue.

When I logged onto Firefox this morning it asked me to update which I did. When I got onto Firefox all my tabs were gone. Please tell me if I did something to cause this and how to keep this from happening again. I do have it set up to restore tabs when logged off and starting up again. Also please tell me how to get my tabs back! I tried to follow instructions for this but actually didn't have the things they said to click on. Thanks so much for your help!!

There are other threads about this, but the solutions given haven't worked for me. I'm using Mullvad VPN, and whenever it's on, I cannot search for anything regardless of my search engine, and pretty much the only website that will open is Tumblr. For anything else, the URL will be in the bar at the top, but it won't do anything beyond that; it won't even show the loading symbol. It worked very briefly when I first got the VPN, but now it doesn't. Other browsers work with my VPN. What am I supposed to do?

I'm having problems with a website constantly asking me to accept cookie permissions. It happens on some other sites occasionally, but this particular site is one that I use each day.

When I visit the site I get the cookie permissions box. I click accept all cookies. No matter how many links I click I am presented with the box yet again. It doesn't happen with Chrome, Edge or Brave.

Why on God's green Earth is there a widget by default that has access to my location? I understand that it's just for weather but it is seriously unacceptable that a browser that claims to care so much about privacy plasters my location on my screen for all to see when I open a new tab. Seriously, who thought this was a good idea and how can I turn it off?

I have a PC. Today, Bing took over my Firefox. I have to go through Bing to get Firefox. I don't want that. I just want to use Firefox.

Note that I use two web browsers. Google Chrome (default) and Mozilla Firefox. No others. I don't want Bing.

I purged Bing from Chrome by making Chrome my default, which it has been. I use Firefox some of the time. I don't want to get to Firefox by going through Bing. Microsoft has enough domination.
