Hey folks, just wondering when the Windscribe add‑on will be moved to the MV3 framework. Other browsers already have it at v4.x and I’d love to see Firefox catch up so we can use the new privacy features. Is there an ETA on the review/approval process? TIA

I recently wiped & reloaded my computer. Multi-Account containers re-installed successfully & I see all my containers. The issue is with sign-in to Reddit.com website. If I try to login using a container, I get invalid username or password error. If I login without using a container, it's fine. I am copy/pasting my account info. I tried different containers; same issue. Tried creating a new container; same issue. Try again without using a container; login to Reddit is successful.

I can't find urvanview 9582 to uninsatall. The picture that is behind very menu bar item makes it almost unreadable, e.g. tools, help, etc. I have looked for a way to uninstall the extension in hopes that might solve the problem. I can't find a way. I'm now concerned this may have installed a rat program. I'm thinking may best course may be to uninstall firefox and start over, Would appreciate any help.

I may have asked this before, When I launch Firefox, it opens the tab to the right of the active tab in the previous session. When I close a tab, it opens the tab to the right.

Am I wrong, or is that precisely the opposite of what you would expect or want?

Can someone please explain the logic of this? Is there anything that can be done about it?

I have this addon Select After Closing Current. Can I get some advice to set it up to work?

Also, why are there two product pages for it? link text

"Optional" AI Features and Disabling Ad Blockers

Good Evening,

I switched to Firefox as my primary browser from Chrome due to Chrome's instance on forcing unnecessary and intrusive AI features onto the platform, and their revoking support for ad blockers.

Anthony Enzor-DeMeo's quote from his recent blog post announcing that Firefox "will evolve into a modern AI browser" is a huge red flag for me. I do not care how much he may promise the features will be "something people can easily turn off", I do not trust it will remain that way. Mozilla will have a bad quarter and suddenly those won't be optional features anymore. I have seen it happen with other tech companies and it's infuriating that Mozilla seems to be merrily skipping down the same path.

In addition to the AI bloat Mozilla seems to insisting they need, Enzor-DeMeo recently said that "He could begin to block ad blockers in Firefox and estimates that'd bring in another $150 million, but he doesn't want to do that." To even joke about that is an astounding misstep. I specifically joined Firefox to be able to use an ad blockers.

I've enjoyed my time with Firefox and have recommended it to friends in the past, but I have changed browsers before. If Firefox continues to forge ahead with these frankly absurd changes, I will have to do so again.

Previously when you click the ADD ON button a list of extension icons appeared but not if you click ADD ON button a theme tab pops up Now I can not use the extension I want to use eg for video download I could click the downloader icon and the video would start downloading. Now as the list is gone how do you use the down load ext if the icons are not listed. It is now a useless browser as I could not use the extension Even a simple eraser history icon is not there so I had to go to settings to clear data Very inconvenient Before you click the eraser button and history is cleared by 1 click Please restore ADD ON list button to make the browser more convenient as b4. After the recent update all the features are not visible

Добрый день! Я много лет использую firefox для работы, я работаю в банке, и недавно нам дали расширение для мессенджера где ми общаемся с клиентами и можем добавлять документы легче и другие функции. У меня возникла проблема, так как я не могу его установить никак. Я питалась установить его по инструкциям с сайта, но безуспешно. Расширение фактически самостоятельно написано нашими разработчиками и инструкция по установке только на Chrome, и вігдядит она примерно так: скачиваете себе архив, извлекаете файлы пишете chrome://extensions включаете режим разработчика и загружаете туда файлы что были извлечены из архива.

Прошу детальную инструкцию как я могу это сделать для firefox.

Hi ..

I have installed 'Stop Auto Reload' extension on my browser, (..aimed at stopping Meta/Facebook from automatically reloading my page whenever they feel like it, or because I opened a link from a post.)
As directed, I have listed that site in the two relevant boxes, in the 'Options' tab to show that anything with 'facebook' in the URL should NOT auto-refresh..
But down the 'Options' page a bit further, is another box that says:

'..Don't stop a tab from auto reloading if it has a URL that starts with one of the following URLs:'

.. & it lists: 'https://www.facebook.com/checkpoint/?next'

Now.. I did NOT insert that... And the app will NOT let me remove it.! I can press shift to get another line or go back, but I cannot highlight & delete or backspace-remove that entry. Its like the extension has been tampered with..??

So Meta is still interfering with my browser when I'm on there, & stalls & reloads whenever it wants to..!!
Any advice gratefully received.. Thank you..
