Firefox Support Forum

Greetings,

Today, I went to access my Bookmarks, & found them "Empty", other wise "Missing"!

I found the "How to recover missing Bookmarks" topics, & that did bring back,what I consider to be My "Permanent Books", bu the section called "Other Bookmarks" will not come back, no matter how many times I go through the "Restore Bookmarks".

I Absolutely need that section to be restored, for I had many files in that section that I updated daily, that I planned to move to the "Bookmarks Section".

How can I get get this section restored?

I have a staging site for my website which is protected (not visible to the public) and requires authentication with the username and password to be accessed.

Firefox is blocking access with the authorisation window coming up empty again and again and again when I enter the credentials.

So - I have to use a different browser just to access this one site.

I have cleared the cookies and cache, removed the site from the browsing history - Firefox is still blocking the access.

how can I unblock it?

I use Windows 64 bits on my PC.

Hi. I'm experiencing issue when FF pops up new window (I need it this way), it pops up right behind taskbar, which I have on top of the screen (used to it since Amiga), so that I can't reach top of the popup to slide it or minimize etc. and have to stretch it a bit to get it bellow the taskbar. Annoying. I thought it is a Windows issue, but Chrome works well, no hiding popups, just alligning them bellow the taskbar. I don't wanna use Chrome, so please, let me know about workaround. Thanks. hippo

Firefox in windows will not let me login to my outlook account. Sight comes up, loads username and password but the login button is not active and does nothing. All products are up to date.

I have tried several solutions I found but nothing seems to apply to me.

랜섬웨어에 감염되어서 제 전 파이어폭스의 계정 복구코드가 사라졌습니다. 항상 로그인할때 2단계 인증을 하는법을몰라서 복구코드로만 로그인을했는데 랜섬웨어에 걸려 컴퓨터를 초기화하였습니다. 하지만 현재 다시 로그인을 하려하는데 2단계 인증또는 복구코드를 입력하라고 하네요. 도움이 필요합니다. 정말 중요한 사이트들을 북마크 또는 정말 중요한 계정들을 그 사이트에 비밀번호를 저장시켜놨는데 기억이 나지않고 복구해야하는 이유가 더 있습니다. 도와주세요

我是校园网用户。在我自动更新火狐浏览器后，明明每天开机打开浏览器后会自动弹出登录页面，并自动登录，开始有流量可以上网。但问题是，我已经认证登录过了，有网，却在使用过程中，火狐浏览器还是会不断弹出您必须先登录此网络才能访问互联网。打开登录页面的弹窗，频繁弹出很烦。

 没有更新之前，只要认证登录一次就可以了，之后上网过程中不会再在书签工具栏下方弹出登录提示，而且是一天到晚每隔不到一刻钟不停的弹出。弹出时候的截图我也放在下面了。网络认证登录页面如下：

Hello,

I am using Mozilla since many years and it's one of the best browser ever but recently i have installed a vpn in it to access a site(https://www.herembroidery.com) . It makes my browser slow. I want to know is it slow because of the vpn or there is any other reason behind it?

Thanks.

The previous version of firefox would show which tab was making noise with a little megaphone symbol. But the June 2021 update changed that function so the symbol only appears when you hover the pointer over the tab. Not very convenient or useful. I was wondering if there was a setting or add on that would restore the previous noisy tab identification function.

Hello,

I'm using Firefox 89.0 (64 Bit) and I was wondering if it is possible to disable the shortcuts or hot keys. I use Azure Devops to create test cases. The test case editior uses shortcuts like CTRL + B to make text bold. But this interferes with the Firefox shortkeys. Currently the only way for me to format text in Azure Devops is to use the mouse which is very unconvenient.

I've been reading for an hour now so please don't be offended . I know you are volunteers and thank God for you. However I would just like to say a few choice things to the CEO at Mozilla. Dear Sir/mam or under todays circumstances it could possibly be Dear Trans, I would like to offer a suggestion because FireFox is catching up to the worlds most inefficient company Microsoft crap. Windows has more errors than it does users world wide and the programmers at Mozilla must have been previous Microsh-t employees. Our time is just as important as yours sir-mam-trans? I have followed every instruction to the finest detail except some of the details you say to use are non existent trying to set gmail as my mailto default . The last and final straw that wasted more of my valuable time was this set of instructions I want you to follow these yourself. The hamburger Icon isn't at the end of the address bar like it says it is so I googled where is it and got the following. "hamburger icon | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Support https://support.mozilla.org › en-US › questions 29 Jan 2018 — You can also get to the Firefox menu by clicking on 'Tools' on the menu bar : Press the Alt key on your keyboard and in the upper left corner ..."

      Another bunch of my time wasted you cannot access  anything that will help set gmail as the default going through tools. I'm being far more polite than I would be if I was standing in your office. Hey give me a job where I can get paid for not producing anything of value  I'm sure you can squeeze one non family member in can't you? I have terminal cancer and not much time left here on this demonic earth thank God I'm going home soon. But until I do I would like the time I have left to be productive and would like to request that you fire all the incompetent family ,members they must be because your just as incompetent for paying a fertilizer spreader to write computer help articles. 
    Sorry to all you volunteers if any one can tell me how to do this I would greatly appreciate it and I meant everything and more that I said and hope someone sends it to the damn fool. These big corporations get filthy rich bribing politicians for tax breaks blah blah blah and you know as well as I do no business would be in business long making just half the mistakes they do unless you got the same perks . Have a wonderful day and blessings to all you volunteers and everyone that you love.Sincerely ARICHARDHEAD (Kyle Jennings)

Hi. I use a web-based program for work. Each page has a set of built-in keyboard shortcut I can use to speed up work. After switching to FireFox, I lost that ability and see FireFox menu instead. I thought Alt-key was the issue, so I disabled it in FireFox, but that didn't really address my issue. Is there a way to enable keyboard shortcut? Not FireFox keyboard shortcut, but what's on the website. Thank you for your help.

Whenever I try opening only Firefox incognito mode by right clicking on the app in taskbar and choosing new private window, normal Firefox window also opens along with it even though I don't want it to open. Please fix this issue and let us only use the private mode at a time and don't allow the normal mode window to open along with it.

Thanking you in anticipation!

I got a new office laptop. I had synced all my bookmarks, logins, password in firefox on my old laptop. After installing firefox on new laptop and signing in, everything is missing. Cannot find anything. Please help.

I'm looking for help with using GPO's to control Firefox settings. When I modify anything in the Preferences section, the GPO description says to use JSON to configure and has a github website. At the github website, there are two examples. Should I be using the Windows GPO example or the policies.json example? Also, in both examples, entries have a "status" value, where does this come from?

How can I detect if a "download helper" e.g. the Video DownloadHelper tracks or collects the links/names of the downloaded files? How can I get a confirmation that no such information is sent out from my computer?

Thanks.

I've noticed that after watching YouTube on any speed greater than 1x starts to consume more and more memory on my system which does not go away until a restart occurs. This is repeatable and occurs when in private mode without any extensions enabled. I've done this on Chrome with the same extensions enabled as well as a fresh Edge and this problem does not occur. I am running Windows 10 Home Version 19043. The leaked memory gets put into Desktop Window Manager when viewed in task manager, but I have isolated it to Firefox by launching in safe mode without any other programs running and seeing the lead occur as soon as I start viewing a YouTube video at faster speeds.
