Hello, I would like to suggest adding an option to open dragged links into Firefox window as new tab. At the moment it can be done through dragging link onto tab bar in between tabs, but due to small space, this can easily result in dragging link onto page tab.

Currently, when dragging link onto opened page, it will change the current page instead of opening new tab, which can result in loss of data or important information.

I think it would be safer to have this behavior as default or at least an option to set it active.

In below thread, there's an example of currently only way to open link in new tab. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/972343

I just wanted to make sure my vpn will work on keeping all my information protected so I don't get hacked and have my personal information all over the dark web thank you for looking into this for me

I have Firefox latest version (153.0.1 (64-bit)) running in Windows. Both are newly installed.

Usually, if I type a new URL firefox "remembers it" and when I type it the second time, it shows in the address bar.

But now it does not. Any ideas?

Pop up notification for an outdated profile/version of firefox when firefox was closed which made the game tab out and I couldn't move until I was able to tab back in. How do I get rid of this and keep my current profile and get it up to date so that I can use the same profile?

After updating software and restarting my laptop (Lenovo running windows 10 or 11) Firefox now displays this message for every web page (this example from attempting to access Gmail, but same message with all other sites I have tried):

"Be careful. Something doesn’t look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with mail.google.com. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails.

mail.google.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site."

I now can't access any pages using Firefox. Long term user, so I hope you can help me! C

My question is how do I temporarily remove my bookmarks. I have many bookmarks, hundreds, and I want to disable them temporarily for a few days so they can't be seen by another person using my computer. How can I disable them, but then make them all reappear a few days later? Can someone help? Appreciate the help. Thank you.

Hello all, I have FF 152.0.6 in use on Fedora 43 xfce Qubes OS VMs. The only issue I have encountered is when I try to load the web UI for Proxmox Datacenter Manager. As soon as I log in to the web UI Firefox vanishes. I have tried this in troubleshooting mode with the same results. I can open the same web UI in a Debian 13 Qube and it works perfectly. The FF version there is v.140.13.0esr. These are simply the default versions that come with Qubes 4.3 templates. I can also access the web UI in the original Fedora Qube with Chromium browser with no crash. I have also tried a different Fedora qube with the same failure result as the original.

I can use Chromium but would prefer a streamlined experience with just one browser. I thank all of you in advance any thoughts or suggestions. I am a long time Firefox and Mozilla user.

Have a great day. SS

I am trying to access my QNAP NAS configuration page within my home LAN from a newly installed Linux PC with Firefox 147.0.1. Firefox won't let me access the page, popping up an error page:

Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to nessy.fritz.box. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

I have verified that the claimed risk is nonexistant, but Firefox does not allow me to bypass the warning. There is no "Proceed anyway" or "Advanced..." button as claimed in various help articles.

How can I convince Firefox that I know what I am doing?

NB: The same page is accessible, also with Firefox 147.0.1, from a Windows PC.

I can't bring in www.facebook.com so I can "sign-in" to my FaceBook account.. When I enter "www.facebook.com " into the URL, my virus program (BitDefender) produces the following message on the monitor for me:

      Suspicious page blocked for your protection
      https://www.faccebook.com/

     Your connection to this web page is not safe due to an unmatching security certificate.

This means that the certificate was issued for a different web address than the one it is being used for, and you run the risk of exposing your data by accessing this page.

After being nagged to update to the latest version of Firefox, i did so thinking all the windows and tabs would be restored. I have been thru multiple updates with with no problems in the past. I have been through most of the self help but nothing works. The restore last session is greyed out.

I do not speak geek.
