Hello,

My name is Nyayesh Abdollahi and I have a suggestion for Firefox; I've earlier been unable to access an account I created because the e-mail connected to it had been deleten.

This seems to me a proper weakness in Firefox and perhaps should be ameliorated...?

I just wanted to let you know this because I do think it's the best browser around.

If the problem has already been adressed, my apologies.

Kind regards, Nyayesh Abdollahi

So,I had 2 accounts awhile banlck, 2015-2017 I ended up going to prison for..quite some time Anyways, 1 of my accounts some how got deleted? I dunno , but I had a lot of logins and passwords on it...I'm assuming that they are all lost? Since instead of logging onto my account, i had to create one. My account withstands tho, but it didn't have a lot of the logins...what can I do?

two-factor authentication and samsung

Good morning - I wanted to set up two-factor authentication with your browser for security reasons. A code comes up that one uses with one's phone. I connected with it, but I couldn't finish setting up the 2FA. Here's the problem: My Samsung Note 20 Ultra has fingerprint scanning on the screen. Since I bought it, I tried using the fingerprint feature, but it is a beast to get my prints scanned and then it can hardly ever scan my print successfully. So I gave up using fingerprints altogether. So I scan your code, and it wants me to do the whole fingerprinting thing with my phone in order to set it up. It doesn't give me the option to use the security that I did choose to use with my phone. Please advise how I can get 2FA without doing all of this. Thanks. Ritva

I'm using Firefox Nightly and the "suggested logins" bar at the bottom is still there, even after I have already logged in to youtube on the website. Actually, it's still on this tab as well, while I am already logged in to Mozilla.

I was using it without issue last night, casting screen on chromecast. This morning it wouldn't open, just opens and closes immediately so I uninstalled and reinstalled it through the Play Store.

I'm trying to sign in but it doesn't recognize my authentication apps (Microsoft, then disabled it and tried Google) or the account recovery keys. So neither Microsoft or Google authenticator apps worked, and both sets of backup authentication codes failed.

I disabled 2FA but it still asks for the code (still doesn't accept them).

Firefox on pc works fine.

Hello,

I have an old account that I'm locked out from. The two factor authentication is activated but I don't have access to that device nor do I have the recovery codes. The email registered is an old one that I do not care much about anymore. However, the recovery email/secondary one is my regular email address that I do use daily. Is it possible to have that one removed from the old account so that I can create a new one using that email? It's super annoying being prevented from registering an account using two of my email addresses.

Thanks!
