Is there a way to set a default webcam so website gets access to the not-first-camera by default?

Firefox will ask me if I want to allow a website to access my webcam - I do want the website to access my webcam. But when I choose the correct camera (3rd on the drop-down) and click allow, it just prompts me repeatedly (usually 2-3 times per session, every time I visit the page) if I want to use the camera & have to repeatedly select the 3rd camera on the list. If I check the box to "always allow" then firefox defaults to the first camera on the list, which is a view of my desktop, not actually my webcam (because that's what the first camera in the list is used for - displaying my desktop).

What I want is to set a specific camera to always be allowed on a website, but NEVER let the website have access to the other 4 cameras in the drop-down list. I'd even be okay permanently disabling those 4 cameras from Firefox because I only use them with other applications. I only want firefox to ever use the 3rd camera in the list exclusively, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do that.

I use an older dell remote monitor with my Dell laptops. When using my new Windows 11 laptop on the internet the text on the remote monitor fluctuates between is light colored and broken appearance to normal over the course of 5 to 30 seconds, back and forth. Text appears normal on the laptop monitor AND appears normal on both monitors when using edge browser. I wan to keep using firefox. Solutions?

I have noticed for quite a long time (>1 year) that even though I have this setting correctly enabled to delete cookies and cache when closing the browser, when I reopen the browser, even after a computer restart, the data is still there. I have to manually direct the browser to delete these items for it to ever get rid of them.

I have spent countless hours looking at the same settings, all correctly enabled, yet this feature just will not work. I am fully current with the latest updates for the browser and computer. I have checked, and double checked to make sure I don't have anything listed in the 'exceptions' list. It is, and always has been empty. Using Win11 Pro desktop, current version of FF is 146.0.1 (64-bit) as I write this.

Seriously, what is going on? I even switched to another browser for a while and that browser's settings worked just fine and deleted all cookies and cache when closing.

My search history is clogged with repetitions of the same search. For example I log onto my bank account and the search history shows 15 plus or minus entries. It also happens with other sites i visit often. I searched the internet about "history" and It was suggested that is check extensions and remove them. Then Just today my bank sign-in icon was gone. Sorry Im not always using the correct terminolgy.

We have been unable to find an explanation of what components of the password file data, like created & modified date, can be included nor any formatting requirements. Is following the format of the Exported CSV password file adequate?

I've imported my boockmarks as an HTML file from my windows10 PC to my new Windows11 PC. they are in a folder marked bookmarks Toolbar, but they aren't on it. How do I get them onto the toobar?

I'm just wondering when developers will get their heads out of their butts, and provide a "one-way sync" for firefox. I'm so fricking annoyed at the sync changing around my setups with bookmarks, passwords, etc when I sync between my primary computer and others that I don't use as often. Is this concept just to difficult too comprehend?

In order to connect to Amazon using Firefox on my PC, I am required to scan a QR code with my phone and then, presumably, connect via Firefox or Amazon apps (instructions woefully unclear). It NEVER works. It's no big deal, but it is annoying, particularly since I want to use Firefox as my default browser. I can always connect via Google or Edge. For those of us who aren't tech savvy, why don't you add standard two-factor authentication or Windows Hello as an option?

Overnight my Firefox Home page no longer show the three rows of shortcuts I have had for years. The setting still is correct in Settings but no icons are shown - I have tried to recreate them but still no shortcut icoins! How can I recreate or recover them? Win11, fully up to date.

Hello,

I'm trying to access a dropdown menu on trafficjunky.com but the menu is not functioning correctly and will not load. When I select the dropdown, it opens a small blank white box that should fill with options, and I should have the ability to free type as well so I can search for a location. This does not happen, the only thing that happens is what you can see in the picture and free type is not functioning.

I have cleared cookies and cache numerous times, updated my browser, deactivated extensions, turned off performance settings, and have tried both troubleshooting and incognito modes as well. I am not running ad blockers or themes on Firefox.

Any advice you can provide is appreciated!

Thank you, Kyle

Good afternoon. When I try to send an email link from the Firefox the default comes up with the "New Outlook." I would like to use Outlook Classic as I have in the past. In your default there is now way to choose Outlook Classic only the "New Outlook." Is there a work-around to this. Thank you!

All searches get blocked by reCaptcha, quoted as being caused by 'unusual activity on the network' After going through the "I'm Not A Robot" process the search is o.k., but this happens for every search. The problem does not exist if I switch to Chrome. How do I fix this?

Firefox is my default browser. The problems have arisen from around December 27th 2025. Till then everything worked smoothly. The first problem is that if I go to google.com then search for say , “Wordle”. The search output is displayed on the screen but when I click on the search result, it does not go anywhere- nothing happens.

The second issues, is till the problem cropped up, I had set google.com as the custom url for home page and windows through settings, home, and had used an extension, “ New tab override” available from Firefox, to set every new tab to open as google.com The url for the webpage works but the new tab override does not. I have tried removing the extension but problem 1 persists.

The third issue is that I have subscriptions to newspapers and had set up the logins. These newspapers are in my bookmarks. When I click on the bookmark the main page opens but the login area is missing. It tells me to get a subscription. e.g., among others, NY times, Uniqlo gb, the Turnitin of my university will not load although I am logged in to the university. I have cleaned all cookies, removed all extension including Ad blockers to fix the problem, tried resetting all to default setting but nothing works. Would appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you.

I've disabled extensions, changed settings, and reinstalled multiple times, but Firefox won't quit stuttering constantly. Other browsers work fine on my computer, and Firefox doesn't seem to be using much memory.
