I am getting emails from Microsoft saying: 'The safety and security of your information is top priority for Microsoft. To help keep your account secure, Microsoft will no longer support the use of third-party email and calendar apps which ask you to sign in with only your Microsoft Account username and password. To keep you safe you will need to use a mail or calendar app which supports Microsoft’s modern authentication methods. If you do not act, your third-party email apps will no longer be able to access your Outlook.com, Hotmail or Live.com email address on September 16th. '

I have tried installing free Outlook but it does not allow me transfer all my local folders (I have many) with all my history and information.

Is an update to Firefox due that will support this new modern authentication process or do I loose all my local folders?

I just want to bring it to your attention, that since my latest Windows 11 updates, Firefox browser has been having browsing issues.

1. Basic or multiple tabs are no longer browsing as before. Pages such as: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, CNN, Microsoft home Page, Google, GoDaddy, and so on.

Please note: I have cleared the Cache and internet history, and this does not make any difference. The issue remains the same.

What is causing this basic browsing issue with this version of Firefox?

I use Firefox as my browser and used to be able to go a web site or to a link from an instructor and when I clicked on the link or entered the class I was attending, the Zoom meeting would automatically open. That doesn't work anymore. I have to "join via browser but I don't have the meeting id. Why has this become so difficult? Zoom denies being the problem so now I wonder if it's the browser.

This issue started a few weeks ago. When I receive an email in my outlook account and click on it, a new window opens but there is no content, the page is blank. I know the link is working because if I copy and paste it into a new window it works fine. Is there a setting I need to change to be able to click on a link and have it open, like it has in the past? Since it is a new issue I am not sure if it is from an update or something. Thank you

I use the Department of Veteran Affairs for my health care. They set us a system that works well for me to get care appointments, order medications and send messages, and called it MyHealtheVet. It is being merged into larger data bases, I think, and no longer works in a small area for me: Surveys. So I sent a Help Desk inquiry to them and received a reply that says:

Dear Veteran L, Friendly tip: Please ensure that you are using internet browser Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge for quality internet service. The issues with Firefox, Safari, Internet explorer internet browsers does not provide full access of the portal and will continue to provide some type of error message. Thank you for your Service to our Nation. We are in this together.

I read in Mozilla help instructions that there are changes to my settings that may work for me, but my concern is that the VA folks are going down a path that leaves out Firefox. If I need to start using Edge or Chrome for MyHealtheVet because that is what it is, fine. I'm just surprised.

How do I turn off those annoying "update available" notifications/reminders that keep popping up? I've gone into Settings, and in the Updates section firefox only let's me select auto updates or check for updates. I searched online but couldn't seem to find anything about how to disable the notifications all together with the newer version of FF. It's driving me crazy, thinking of switching browsers because of this. Thanks in advance!

I first mentioned this in r/Firefox, and was asked to re-post here.

My FF just updated to 127.0.1 even though I have "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" and told it to wait. This was on a Windows 11 box. Everything seemed fine, but then one of my tabs crashed. I selected the reload tab option, at which point it informed me it could not load the tab because a background update had happened and I was now required to restart Firefox.

I'm not certain what version of FF I was on, I believe it was either 126 or 126.0.1.

Now, to be completely fair, I cannot with 100% certainty say that I clicked on the update later option. That said, as I _did not want to update then_, and I have put off the update before, it seems unlikely I would have made the mistake, but I wasn't recording everything I did so I can't play it back and prove it. My initial reaction was to associate it with the tab crashing somehow, as everything was working as expected right up until that moment.

Thanks
