Whenever I restart Thunderbird, I have to change the settings back to "Table view," 20 recent folders, sorted alphabetically. This occurs on only one of my computers (Windows 11). My guess is that the settings file must be corrupted. How do I fix that?

How Can I Double Click to Upload Files?

Firefox recently had an update, and now when I am uploading files, I can't double click to upload selected files. I have to first select the file, and then click the open button.

Before the latest Firefox update, I could simply double click on files to upload. This workflow was much faster.

If I go to about:config, and search for: widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker, I can change the value from 0 to 2, and then I can upload files by double clicking. However, then Firefox forgets my last upload location, and always opens in the home folder.

If I set it back to 0, it remembers my last upload location, but I can't double click to open files.

My current Firefox version is 152.0.1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

On previous releases of Firefox, when I added the "Open file" button to the toolbar I could click on it and a file browser would open to select a file to load. Now in Firefox 152.0, I was able to add the button to the toolbar, but it is disabled (greyed out) and does nothing when I click on it.

The Ctrl-O keyboard combination works, but I much prefer to use the toolbar button.

Dear Firefox Community,

I don't want to follow football. I don't want to see world time. I don't want to download Firefox for mobile. I don't want to change my home screen background. I don't want any new widgets automatically enabled.

Kindly tell me if there are any setting/options/flags (including in about:config ) to avoid any new popups about all those very useful features for as long as possible.

When I simply hit my control button on my keyboard, it zooms out. and if I HOLD CTRL, it zooms ALL THE WAY TO...20% no other button is hit. just control. yes I tried unplugging it. CTRL-0 will bring it back to 100% but as soon as I hit CTRL again it does it zooms out again. chrome has no issue with this so I know its Firefox issue. simple google searches are no help. Any ideas?

Hi. Now that the 'Open Link in Split View' has annoyingly replaced the spot previously held by 'Open Link in New Window' i keep clicking on it accidentally (muscle memory).

I don't want to have to retrain my muscle memory, but despite creating css file generated by Claude that should in theory remove the option, and putting it the Profile Folder, it will not go away.

How do i remove it?

I REALLY don't want to see prompts like this ... when FF upgrades to a newer release. I postponed clicking on adding this application since I really didn't know what it as going to do, or how to remove it once done. The little 'i' in the red circle did nothing. So - I finally clicked on it to make it go away. Not hat I call a very seamless upgrade.
