System suddenly changed IE to default browser for Thunderbird messages. Going through Settings, Defaults, Firefox is not an option, the icon is not there. The main issue is Thunderbird now opens messages in IE all of a sudden instead of Firefox. In Firefox Options, I click on set default and it comes up with IE or search store for an app. I'd be grateful for any help.

A few days ago I started getting full page spam messages when looking at threads in one forum only. I have to keep backing out or closing out of Firefox. Initially FF blocked them, but not anymore. Norton never blocked them.
These messages only come up when using one FF profile, not another. They also do not show up when using a Chromebook, so I presume the problem is on my end.
I have cleared all cookies & cache and did a complete scan with Norton, Malwarebytes, & AdwCleaner. Even restored Windows 7 back to an earlier time. But none of this helped.
They are full page messages & say they're from AT&T, Walmart, or Visa. However the addresses all start out with: happy.luckyparkclub.com/………..
Sometimes the messages appears right away & sometimes it takes a few minutes.
I cleared FF cookies, went back to the forum, & then looked at the cookies again. I noticed that happy.luckyparkclub.com and dbmtrk.xyz both appeared in the cookies list at the same time, 23 seconds. The forum cookie was time stamped at 22 seconds.
If I look at the forum using a different FF profile there is no problem & neither of these 2 cookies are there.
If I open a New Private Window in the problem profile then I don't get the messages either, at least not yet.
What does the Private Window NOT access that the regular window does?
Which profile folder or file could be causing the problem?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello and thanks in advance for your help!
For many years, the content management system that I have been using has worked just fine with previous versions of Firefox. To access the backend area for a client of mine to edit their own website I built for them, they would go to their website and hit Control-Y on any page of their website. This would bring up the login prompt window so they could login and start live editing their site. Now, when I hit Control-Y, nothing happens.
I saw a previous post that mentioned adjusting (allowing) keyboard shortcuts in the settings area. I did this but unfortunately, this didn't solve my issue.
Can someone tell me why this no longer works with Firefox and what the possible fix / workaround might be?
Thank you so much!!

Google Sheets - using + or * signs don't move the cursor, so previous cell address is overwritten in the formula

[Added an attachment to simplify the explanation]
Suppose that I want to write the formula A1+A2 (or A1*A2). If I click A1 and then use the '+' sign. The sign it appears right after the cursor, so the cursor it's now between the A1 and the '+' sign, and the A1 text in the formula remains -I would say- selected as if nothing was written. So whatever I write or click afterwards overwrites the A1 cell reference making it impossible to write a formula.
I'm in Win10 with Firefox v69.0, both latest versions in English with a Spanish Intl. keyboard and layout. Checked in a couple of spreadsheets including a blank one.
Things that I have already tried:
- Disabled all add-ons on all tests
- Tried doing the same on Chrome, Opera, Edge (edgeHTML), Safari and FF for Mac. Only happens in FF both Mac and Win.
- It only happens when the previous cell was introduced using the mouse or the arrow keys, not if it was written.
- Only happens when using the '+' (or '*') from the regular keyboard, not the one from the numerical keypad.
- Switched to Spanish Windows and Firefox. Doesn't work either.
- Tested old Firefox versions, including, ESR.
- Changed the keyboard layout. With some of them it works (US, UK, US_Intl, FR, PL programmers) and with others doesn't (ES, DE, IT, FI and serbian). Moreover, few of them (FR and FI) works for one sign (+ or *) but not for the other.
Any ideas? Thanks

I am trying to open magnet links with Firefox. I've gotten to the point where it asks me which program I want to open magnet links with. I want to point it to qBittorrent, which is in /usr/bin, however firefox cannot open either of these folders when browsing for the application. It always says access denied. I have tried granting it permissions thru Ubuntu Software and it did nothing. Seems like a very obvious problem. How can I choose an application if I cant ever access where they're stored? Im trying to switch from Chrome but it's proving to be way more difficult than it needs to be.

Is there anyway I can recover them.
You have to understand that I don't understand anything about code.
I am 61 years old and you and google and MS are making it more and more complicated in the name of BS safety
I have ESET Internet Security and addons that block popups and dangerous websites.
I suggest you offer a browser that is easier for me to understand.
My computer was destroyed when I installed the Windows 1903 update.
Then I accidentally deleted all my files ,and I didn't have a hard disk backup
Is it possible you can send me all my bookmarks from 12 months ago
Or give me instructions on how to recover without being too complicated
Please send the details to my gmail account xxxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx
I only use xxxxxxxxx@xxxxx.xxx for Youtube
sincerely

I can't set up the new Firefox Sync because it requires an iPhone or Android phone and I have a Blackberry

When I use Firefox search engine, first tab opens, then I open a second tab, it overrides the first tabs page, I cannot search from it nor can I bounce between tabs. I have to close the second tab but then the first tab is blank. I have to close both and open up the browser again. I am not a google fan and want to migrate away as much as possible. It might be my dated windows so instead of spending hundreds of dollars on a new version, can I take firefox back to the version I had before this stupid new version. Which sounds like people are having a lot of problems with.

I am a NYT subscriber but can no longer access content behind the paywall on FireFox. Yet, it works fine on Chrome and Edge. When I am on the NYT homepage, it shows that I am logged in. When I click on an article on the home page, it loads it but a pop-up makes it blurry and says that I need to be a subscriber to see it. Yet, the top of the page shows that I am still logged as a subscriber. The problems occurs on my two notebooks. Both are running Windows 10. One has Norton as antivirus, the other has Windows Defender. To troubleshoot, I have turned off all FireFox "Content Blocking" and have cleaned up cookies and browsing history (twice), but it has not cleared the problem. I have reinstalled FireFox twice. I am also a subscriber to the Washington Post, and I have no problem reading it.

I am using firefox on my desktop and laptop with sync to get the same bookmarks, extensions, logins & passwords on both. Yesterday I did a fresh re-install of windows and firefox on my laptop. Them I logged into sync.
After a few minutes, it got my bookmarks and my extensions reinstalling, but that was yesterday and ever since, I never got my logins and passwords.
I checked the "logins" box in about:preferences#sync, checked "use a master password" in about:preferences#privacy and did a "sync now" but still no passwords and logins. They should still be on my desktop (I did not start it since) but I am afraid they will disappear when I connect if it syncs with the laptop which has none of them.
How can I be sure I keep them on my desktop when I turn it on? Can I save them somehow?
And then how can I get them on my laptop too?
