I've tried making Google an exception, to no avail.

My blog has started displaying the message, "Firefox can't open this page". The message also says, "To protect your security, accounts.google.com will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it. To see this page, you need to open it in a new window." But opening it in a new window didn't work. I tried clearing the cache, and pasting the link into a new open tab, but neither helps. I tried opening it in Safari, and that works fine, so this seems to be a Firefox problem. Any suggestion?

I have appreciated Firefox for many years, so long in fact that I no longer have access to the email address that I signed up with. I have had no reason to access my account so I did not realise that it was out of date. I was accessing my account to check that I had two-factor protection and since I could not access the account I decided to create a new account and used the help pages to move my profile to the new account. I was able move my profile and access all my bookmarks and PASSWORDS! I simply uninstalled Firefox, moved my profile to another location, downloaded Firefox and copied the old profile over the newly created profile. I opened Firefox and could open the password manager and see all my passwords. I could not believe how easily I could access all the sensitive information. I needed no password - just access to the profile. This profile will be saved on any computer that I have used to log into Firefox. Anyone with access to those computers could easily repeat what I was able to do. This is a serious secuirty flaw and I simply can't believe I was able to do this!!!!!

Since total cookie protection was engaged after a recent browser update (about a week ago), my history logs have ceased functioning. I still have everything listed in those logs leading up to that date. This is rather distressing. I need to reverse this anomaly, yet cannot find a fix within your support topics.

Current browser version + 131.02 OS = Win 11

Please advise AEO (at earliest oppty!!)

After finding out Firefox was storing over a gigabyte of cookies, I figured it might be wise to set it up to clear them except for sites I used regularly. However, I've recently noticed that Youtube will clear regardless. I've tried entering the domain both as youtube.com as well as www.youtube.com, but my video display preferences aren't retained. This doesn't happen for other sites, like Reddit or Tumblr. What do I need to enter in the exception list to keep my settings?

I can not update my PC drivers using firefox online or even Google because your help links have been changed and looped around to return null, I have attempted to learn about this but I am just a guy in the country trying to get by on disability. Their has been unknown computers using my wife and I dont know why Mozilla would be interested in us and rerouting our attempts to receive help. So I have been attempting to reach out and get help, to only receave responces from your great help with distain and smart alak answers instead of helping us out with this unusual problem that even baffles Google and Microsoft support, who has been a witness to your web inspectors harrassment and abuse, not my words but the words of Ohio job and family services who I have been forced to file disability abuse charges, I even have the names of the suspected culprits and have been in contact with law enforcement, so before the snide comment is made. I have filed stalking charges for this unknown event. So it is not a funny story, its a serious criminal action. So please can anyone help me to explain why this platform has been targeting a private home and family is beyond me. Thank you for just listening.

I really don't remember installing any plug-in related to it. The Youtube web page shows a download button at the bottom of the video window, when I click on it it opens a pop-up window to the Yt5s web page, but the mentioned web is full of forced advertising and all kind of irregular staff. When I go to the plug-ins section of Firefox it is not shown there. I have no idea how to remove this script. May you please help me?

Hey everyone,

So I'm trying to log into Firefox on a new PC and I got stuck in an infinite loop of logging in and getting my account disconnected.

1. I login and enter my credentials; 2. Enter authorization code; 3. Instantly get a warning sign on the account icon and I discover that "Account disconnected"; 4. I try to sign in, and there we go again.

Tried resetting and reinstalling, the problem remains. Please help!

If I search for what a session cookie is the common answer will be something like "It's a temporary cookie that's erased from your device once you close your web browser".

If I: 1. Open Firefox. 2. Navigate to website A. 3. Login 4. Close the browser(All windows) without loging out from the website. 5. Open Firefox. 6. Navigate to website A.

If the website has marked it's session cookie as a "session cookie" I will be logged out when I visit website A again. I can't retrieve my previous session, although It's alive on the server. The browser has seemingly, as it should, deleted my cookie since it was a session cookie.

However(!), If i repeat the steps above, but after step 5 hit ctrl+shift+t, the browser remembers my session cookie and I'm back in. Although Firefox was supposed to forget my session cookie.

I have a brand new HP Spectre laptop. I have had Firefox running on it and it has been fine for about 6 months.

Now, all of a sudden, when I click on the desktop short cut, it does not open Firefox but, rather takes me to duck duck go which opens the following website

I can not get rid of it, I can not by bypass it, and Firefox is no longer available to me on my laptop.
