Firefox Community Forum

When I try to load "Comments" I get this message:

Failed loading comments! Please try again...

Trying again doesn't help.

This is a fairly recent problem

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Not sure if anyone else is reporting this but ever since the last update - 140.0.2 Firefox Release, June 27, 2025 - many of my general sites, yahoo, news, company sites that I use everyday, do not load. I have to use Private Browsing, keep refreshing or change URL for the site to load. Anywhooos, I do appreciate you guys! keep it up!

If I need to upload a file I click on the OPEN or BROWSE button in the website, Open File dialogue opens trying to list the location it is already looking at, and it hangs for over 30 seconds before listing files. This is windows 11, but it did it when i had windows 10 too. I dont know what to do.

When using any Microsoft 365 product on the browser I keep getting a prompt to "Please sign in" although I am already signed in. I can click the Sign in button and a about:blank page pops up for a split second. Then within a half hour or so, it will pop up again. I deleted my cookies but the problem still persists. Does not happen on other browsers.

Firefox stopped working on my computer. Every time I try to open it I get an error message that says "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I tried to uninstall and reinstall with no success. Our IT dept tried as well and nothing we have tried has resolved the issue. Thank you for your help.

I am trying to load a page I load everyday and am receiving the following error message:

Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to app.seg-social.pt. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

   The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
   Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

Can someone help me please. Thank you.

After every update, Firefox starts to a blank screen and will not start loading the webpage url put in for over twenty minutes to a half hour. During this time other browsers on my Win 10 PC load immediately so it is not a network issue. It is Firefox. When I see that an update is pending I hesitate to do the update because I know I will lose the use of Firefox until it is ready to respond. It just hangs with "loading X.com" showing at the bottom left of the blank screen. I have been using Firefox for a long time and in the past year or longer it has become very unreliable. There are also instances where without an update it will do this and the only way I can get it to work is to clear the cache and the history through settings. What is going on with Firefox! (And lately there is an update every couple fo days!

Hello,

I have no idea who is going to read this, but I was in my Cell Phone companies’ site today and got an error message that Firefox would not show the bill details. Some stupid thing about other web sites and sealing my information. I needed that page and could not see so I had to use another browser (not Chrome or Edge) to get the bill to display.

I then had a coupon to print from an e-mail from my Pharmacy. Again you gave an error message but did download the coupon to where I save things.

I do not want to use Chrome or Edge as they track the S**t out of you. I have another that is laid out like Chrome but supposedly isn’t and I use that. I have to pay for that one. The main thing these browsers don’t have is the Menu Bar at the top and you cannot put it on. I use that to free up screen space that is lost the way they do things.

Can you PLEASE get things right in Firefox so I don’t have to waste my time or worse have to use this other browser I hate.

Ever since the most recent firefox update, my screensaver doesn't appear after laptop has been idle. According to the Mac Activity monitor, Firefox is blocking it. I've tried quitting Firefox and restarting, and also restarting laptop, but no solution.

Hi,

 Only in Firefox on my windows 10 pro pc do I have to keep on signing into Homedepot.com with a security code?
 So I looked up the problem and one of the solutions (I tried a few) is to clear the old chache and cookies?
 Trying to do this.... get link after link after link.....after link.

How do you do it?

  Wish I can upload something... but can't upload what you can't find?

Thanks, Julio

I am trying to use Firefox and when I click on the Icon nothing happens. I run it as Administrator and the browser open but I can not load any web pages. The only web browser that works is Duck Duck Go. Google Chrome does not work either.

My very favorite browser will not open when I click the FF icon. I did another download and it will not open, as well. What can you tell me about this issue and how to fix it? An avid user for many years.

I play a video game and it has a /wiki <thing> chat command that is supposed to open my browser tab to a search result of <thing> on that games wiki website. Firefox has stopped doing this. I can not find, or figure out, what settings to change to allow this to work.

I have been trying changing cookie settings and Firefox will have a pop about it already running, but not responding. I click cancel because Firefox seems to be working fine other wise.

Does anyone have any idea what I can do?

I am subscribed to a mailing list from Wordsmith.org, and I get an email with a different word each day. See today's example below:

iteroparous

PRONUNCIATION: (IT-uh-ro-PAR-uhs)

MEANING: adjective: Reproducing multiple times in one’s lifetime.

The email has a link to an mp3 audio file with a voice recording of the proper pronunciation. Today's word: https://wordsmith.org/words/iteroparous.mp3

The file omits the first part and says "____perous". It is not just this one instance, it is all the time, every day. Chrome also has the same fault, but Microsoft's Edge plays the mp3 completely, as it should.

Hello, all. My first post here. My problem is that: When I'm done using Firefox and close the app, several copies remain and need to be closed separately. It's a minor annoyance, but I'd like to fix it. Any suggestions? Thank you.
