Firefox Support Forum

As you can see in the attached image of my old Overflow Menu, I had it customized with many buttons/extensions I often accessed throughout each day.

With the advent of FF ver 109, this functional flexibility has been completely lost. Now, there's no way to choose what buttons and to sort them in the Overflow Menu. In my view, an egregious loss of convenience and efficiency.

Please, bring back the full functionality of the previous Overflow Menu!!!

Hello,

Yes, indeed, another occurrence of this everlasting request.

I don't want to see the word 'userchrome.css' or 'addon' at all in any of the answers that might be provided.

The question is: when will it be finally possible to have an option in the settings so the user can choose to have the tabs bar BELOW the bookmarks bar. After so many years and so many requests from so many people, how is it possible we have never been heard ?

How to officially raise a complaint / request to the teams taking this kind of decisions ?

Thank you.

Hello,

I purchased a new laptop and installed new OS. I logged in with my account in firefox for my saved bookmarks and password but not a single one is showing.

Also, i took backup of all my previous C: drive files to my HDD. Is there a way i can restore the data from Firfox folder?

You used to be able to "Paste and Match Style" by either right-clicking and selecting "Paste and Match Style" or by pressing cmd+shift+v. This seems to have gone away in recent versions. I don't use it too often, so I'm not 100% sure when this change was made, but it is not there in the latest version. This is essentially required when pasting from certain apps into a rich text editor on a website. OneNote, for example, requires this. Now if I want to copy something from OneNote into a rich text editor (like a GitHub issue or Stackoverflow answer) in Firefox, I have to first paste it into a text editor and then copy again to paste it in the browser.

I'm attaching two screenshots one of the context menu when pasting into the body of a GitHub issue in Firefox from OneNote and another of the context menu while doing the same thing in Chrome.

Is this expected? It seems odd to remove the feature when it makes working between other widely-used apps difficult.

When Firefox automatically updated to 109.1 tonight, I lost all my saved passwords and bookmarks. The bookmarks aren't in a file under 'Restore' in 'Manage Bookmarks' (but I had saved them so I got most of them back). But I can't get my passwords. What happened?

I have that issue also it shows up anytime I try PNC.com or my health care insurance. The workaround is using Firefox's private window. I removed my saved login and dumped my data, cookies, site data, and cache but that didn't help. That has been a pain restoring other sites I had saved, but that's another story.

  See image for error message.

Firefox creates a duplicate of itself on the Default Apps section after it updates from a Fresh Install of Firefox and the only way i have found to "fix" this was to reinstall the browser completely but it simply reappears with a duplicate of itself again after it updates and as far as i know it only does it after a fresh install with subsequent updates not creating any more duplicates

both entries just act the same and update at the same time synced with eachother instead of having a separate duplicate entry when you try to change the default apps

Hello, Recently I have noticed that facebook messenger doesn't work in my firefox, after some research I did find that entire websocket (and wss) doesn't work in my firefox. I am using Mozilla Firefox version 109.0.1, one thing that temporarily fix the issues is to delete cert9.db from profile folder. Starting in safe mode doesn't fix the issue, disabling all extensions neither work. The error I get in dev tools/console is 406 code or 400. In different browser everything works fine, but I want to stay with "fox" as long as I can.

using firefox version 109 and my internet down load manager no longer works, it works in other browsers but not since updating firefox. not sure if i was successful in posting this request prior to this one so will give it another try. thanks

On several sites, e.g. Lowes and Kroger, I receive the message: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.lowes.com/store/" on this server. Reference #18.56ed0117.1676583603.8ee0aa7. I have to clear cookies and cache each time I do a search within a particular site so this is not a solution. I don't have this problem using the Edge browser.

When using "ctrl + tab", ther eare 7 recently visited tabs. Can I increase that number to 15? I know I can see all the tabs, but I would like them to sort by recently visited. Can I do any of that? thak you very much

Clicking the mousewheel still works, but scrolling doesn't work. This behavior occurs on tab bar as well.

Using option "Restart with addon disabled" from about:profiles can make the mousewheel scrolling work, but manually disabled all addon and restart just won't solve it.

Dear all,

Pretty much the same as mentioned here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1299343

The video in that link explains it.

The menu bar keeps appearing/disappearing at a high frequency, randomly - and a key press will stop the glitch for a few seconds - or when firefox is not in focus. Tried cleaning, removing, without pluggins, setting the ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses etc etc. Now running the Beta, still same problem. For a while I suspected iCue and Corsair Strafe keyboard - or USB settings, ports, but nothing obvious. Also weird only Firefox suffers from it in that case.

The weird thing is it can go ok for 4-5 hours but then the next day it's back again - once in this state it's unusable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Best,

Alex

I tweaked my Firefox configs to get better font rendering because I hate how "skinny" they are by default on windows. The options changed are:

• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.rendering_mode to 5
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.force_gdi_classic_for_families to ""
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.enhanced_contrast to 100
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.cleartype_level to 100
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.pixel_structure to 1
• gfx.webrender.quality.force-subpixel-aa-where-possible to true

After the update, the fonts are default again, and no matter how much I change the configs, it doesn't change anything.

I am on a Mac M1 and up to a month ago I was using the latest version of Firefox (regular) and the last few weeks it had this issue and when I switched to Firefox Dev Edition it went away until today.

The issue is defined as when I right click on a link it left clicks and right clicks on the link at the same time. (It loads the page I clicked on and also triggers the context menu)

I have no themes, no extensions.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this? It's not happening in Safari or Chrome (both latest versions) and it took me years to finally migrate to Firefox and would hate to go back.

Thanks in advance!

Using Firefox Developers edition since the update to 109.0b3 (64-bit). The scroll wheel doesn't work, the mouse button I have mapped to the back button no longer works. If I launch Firefox in troubleshooting mode everything goes back to normal and the mouse performs perfectly in troubleshooting mode. Back in normal mode I have tried disabling all three of my extensions and the problem persists. Mouse performs perfectly in every other application. Sounds like a bug, but I can't find anyway to report it. Any ideas? Thanks

So, I'm a designer and UX Designer, and recently I installed Ubuntu and Firefox Developer. If you're a UX Designer you probably know about Figma.

The problem is that Figma uses the Alt key to show the distances between objects. But Firefox activates the Menu Bar every time I press it.

Can I remove the Firefox menu bar Alt shortcut?
