Ever tried to download a file through firefox and then pause it to resume it after sometime and end up having the rest of the file being downloaded in an instant but upon opening realise the file has been corrupted. I am facing this issue like so frequently it has become like a norm that pausing a downloading file will give a corrupted one for sure. And please note that other browsers don't reproduce the issue infact the links are pause supported in all aspects

I have seen directions on this site on how to update FireFox but I can never seem to get to the 'about page'. I know it has to be simple, but it really does seem to be missing from Help link. I am pretty be sure this is operator error.

The main reason for this is it that I regularly get notices that my Firefox Browser is out of date/needs updating. I have had the auto update switch turned on, I tried to find the page with it off, most recently.

I've been a fan and user of Firefox a few years now...you all do an awesome job keeping it running stable and fast, Thanks ~BH

FF 102's problems are deal killers for me. My dozens of Collections are gone, for one thing. The monetization is clumsy and greedy. Can I uninstall and reinstall v.101? Had it just a couple of days ago.

'useless after improvements' is a Microsoft thing. It's why people stopped using IE. It's why I just d/l Opera- ready to go if I can't get FF 101.

Android - random tab navigation when I close multiple tabs

On Android say I have more than 10 tabs open and I want to start closing them. I'm currently on tab A, and then I scroll up to see the rest of the taba and start closing then by either swiping or clicking the X button. After I close 3 or more, Firefox will randomly navigate to another tab.

I would expect for Firefox to stay on the tab A which is the one I has open and never closed, instead of jumping to other tabs at random.

Hi,

When using Firefox recently I've noticed my android 12 phone (running on LineageOS 19) is getting noticeably hot within a short period of time of launching Firefox. Additionally I notice a battery drain of roughly 20% in a time span of 20 minutes.

By estimate this started happening about 2 updates ago as of the time of writing this.

I'm using a OnePlus 6T and have root acces, not an expert user. Though I do know my way around software and hardware. Feel free to ask or send short instructions on how to help you guys solve this performance bug.

If you guys need a log or any other information please tell me and I'd be happy to help.

Best regards, Vincent
