Firefox Community Forum

I recently installed Win 11 on a new Acer Aspire (with MSI MAG244F monitor) but the issue seems to be present on my Acer Nitro 5 with built-in monitor as well.

I don't think it's an Acer issue but I am only running Win 11 on the two Acer machines. If I open a web page with colored graphics or pictures and then drop down a menu of the browser (bookmarks, etc.) the colors of the graphics bleed through. It's annoying and somewhat obstructive. It does not occur if a window from a different app is opened on top of the browser window no matter how bright the colors are.

I attached a few edited screenshots to show the issue. The edits are only to cover personal information etc.

The issue seems to be color saturation and does not occur on my other Win 10 machines or in other browsers. Not even the same version Firefox on the Win 10 machines.

Is there a way to increase the opacity of the drop downs or lower the color saturation in the Firefox browser?

I really like the possibility of unloading tabs but still have them visible as I need to be able to backtrack some searches which are many levels deep. One thing I have discovered however, is if the tabs are grouped, you cannot unload them and that poses a problem for me as I have many many tabs that live in various groups across my tab bar. Is there any way of unloading these tabs while they reside in a group or is there a workaround I have not thought of yet?

Cheers and thanks everyone for your support and suggestions ....

Dear Community,

Using Cloud applications via browser and my mail webbased I have Firefox installed. This browser was in my opinion always the better choice, but last months I experience strange behavior, cache issues, freezing pages, crashing tabs which is very annoying and frustrating when working in the cloud. In the same session it is possible that I suddenly can't open objects anymore or click on URL's, buttons not reacting or even can't login again, even when I just was logged in successfully. After refreshing and restarting the browser or sometimes even after restarting my device, everything is working properly again for a while. I can't explain and my questions are: - anyone experiencing, familiar with and or know of this same kind of browser behavior and - if yes, how to solve this?

Thanks in advance and kind regards,

Aad

Hi folks,

New to Mac. I have HDR in Safari, but cannot find out how to enable in FF 140 ESR. I do have Wide Gamut enabled and working.

Is there a way to turn this feature on?

Thanks!

Your system has now blocked me from accessing Jacquie Larson e-card site to receive or send e-cards. Today it blocked me from opening my statement from Edward Jones. Both of these are sites I have used for years and do not pose a threat to my computer. How do I get rid of this aggressive blocking and get back to reaching these websites?

Hi, I set up the vertical tabs and I like them. However they're very unstable and so is the tab sidebar. The expand on hover feature only works for a short time. Then the x to close a tab disappears and the sidebar gets stuck open or closed. If it gets stuck open, it covers the settings and AI and history sidebars so I need to close it manually to use them. Yesterday I lost 3 of my 6 pinned tabs. After closing and opening FF, they were just gone.

Also my tab groups will suddenly disappear. This started in the previous version and still happens, and I lose the sites I had collected. Plus FF has been very slow to load.

So yesterday I gave up and reverted to horizontal tabs. Like magic FF suddenly worked perfectly and very fast. I'm not enough of a techie to have any idea of what is causing what and would really appreciate any advice.

As in subject ... None of my bookmarks (for instance) in my previous browser on an other computer will show up. I have tried to manually sync but nothing happens ...

Best, Johan

I’m trying to install the latest version of Firefox on Debian, as described at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions. I’ve tried twice, several days apart, but both times things fail at the third step, with the fingerprint not matching. Can I do anything besides try again later? I’m using Firefox ESR, as packaged by Debian, in the meantime.

I have a pdf document with live hyperlinks to websites. However, when I click on them, they open in Edge and not my default browser Firefox. Any suggestions? Have set default browser to Firefox and default PDF to Acrobat reader.

I have unchecked picture in picture in settings but still see this in YouTube etc.

I know it can be disabled in about:config but I prefer not to go there.

Does anyone know why this setting does not work?

How do i fix this

I was on the ESR channel and after the recent updates to 142.01 or 141 the ESR is missing from the about Firefox. I had got the tab groups option a few updates back and liked it. This latest update changed how a tab group collapses, instead of showing only the tab group name and collapsing all the tabs it leaves one open wasting space when I have several other tabs open. At least I don't see any sign of the annoying AI junk getting in the way yet. I thought you had a choice to stay on the ESR channel according to this link and others. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-support-windows-10-end-support I'll probably be forced to update to Windows 11 to do my taxes next year but I thought at least I could stay on the ESR channel to avoid new features getting in the way.

I use to have at the top of my page a bottom bar that had my most frequent bookmarks..Now it is forever gone and I cannot find out how to get it back.Your new update is crashing my page constantly... I hate it,can I please have my old page back?
