Firefox Community Forum

I'm a very novice Windows 10 user and my ISP is Earthlink. When I open Firefox it brings up my start page in Earthlink - which has a Google window. Never had this problem before but now when I try to Google anything I get the above application notice. Received one response from the community and while the problem may be mine because I'm a very novice user the suggestions didn't seem to work or I was doing things wrong.

Thanks, Jim

Good evening, For a few days I have this problem (probably with newest version (129.0/1). Each time i try to search something in a new tab by typing in search bar and pressing enter - it just will not proceed. The new tab just stays titled "new tab", doesn't proceed further until I press it few times (6-8 times) - then it loads the search engine with results.

It NEVER happened before. I am certain that I did not change anything.

Yours faithfully, Behemort

Whenever I type youtube.com into the search bar and hit enter, it says it crashed and i can't get in. Here are all my crash id's by the way

Hi folks I have to admit to being in a bit of a panic. Something flashed onto my Firefox browser screen and then I lost all my saved top line tabs, my home button and all the tabs that auto-load each time have also gone. I have never had this happen before and I cannot understand how to roll back. I have noticed a new folder on my W10 Desktop PC's Desktop called "Old Firefox Data" and I am hoping someone can tell me whether that might be helpful when you help me restore things. Any thoughts?

My tabs crash very often. 6+ times per session. This happens on YouTube and Amazon, and can happen with no site loaded, crashed when I went to about:crashes. This also happens in Troubleshoot Mode.

My latest crash id was bp-faaceaab-e59d-4720-89f9-a60df0240813

Thanks for any help.

release 129.0.1 is not working right. This website: https://www.sofer.co.uk/alefbet is supposed to draw the Hebrew letters to show how to write them. It was working last night but is not working today. The page does not scroll down either. The website functions correctly in Chrome, so it is not a website issue. I'd prefer to use firefox for all my browsing rather than have to go to Chrome for this website. Thanks.

I want you to let the control key free for me to use as I have always done for other programs. Why did you took direct control of that key? It always opens a new window I do not need. I use control key plus c key to open another program and now I cannot open it with its own keys combination: control-c-c. Please, tell me how to disable it and stop it opening a new Firefox window. Thank you very much in advance for you kind help.

I used to have a green button below the video I am watching, I would click on that button then then scroll down to mp4360 then the video would download to my computer

Even though my laptop, tablet, phone and PC have the language settings set to English (GB) my Firefox across all platforms has changed from displaying English results to displaying results in French. I have gone through and changed all my language settings in and outside of the browser from English (Canada), to English (GB) to no avail. It still shows up in French. and I have had an French to English translator popping up when searching in Firefox. I can't see anywhere else to change the language. Everywhere I see, it says English (GB), but still displays French headings to the searchs. Any help will be great. Thanks.

In the Privacy & Security pane we have the following configuration

Clear history when Firefox closes with all items selected except for Site Settings. Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed with some exceptions in Manage Exceptions.

But after quitting and re-launching Firefox there frequently entries for random websites shown in the "Manage Data..." pane.

This seems to related to having Facebook Container and Firefox Multi-Account Containers extensions installed. It does not seem to happen when they are not present. Interestingly. we had been using a a very similar Firefox configuration on a legacy Intel macOS system without this issue. We began seeing it while setting-up a fresh installation of Firefox on a new Apple Silicon system with macOS Ventura. The issue was reproduced in a new profile. It continues to the present day with up the current version of Firefox 129.01 on macOS 14.6.1 I feel like this is probably a bug but I don't have the necessary skill to make an effective bug report.

Firefox now asks for primary password every time it starts even if it is not needed to access a site with a saved password. Removing and resetting primary password does not fix the problem.

as the title states we recently had to upgrade the FF versions our clients are using because of a code update that required latest version of FF. the problem now is that PDF printing is having problems when action is set to "open in firefox" it's not able to print completely the PDF. But if we change the action to "use windows default application" it works fine.

So my question is why is this happening? I did some research and found related issues https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/996487 and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1249538

What is the technical explanation for this? We're happy to just set the FF preferences to "use windows default application" but we'll need to tell them why that is.

thank you

Can't play disney+. prime video, crunchyroll or movies on youtube. I CAN play netflix. Play DRM settings is turned on and widevine shows up on plugins. I tried turning off enhanced tracking protection/ ublock/ private badger. Tried deleting user agent/ deleting firefox folder from appdata roaming and local. I am on version 129.0.1 .

bold textdownloading only produces " .part " files in my downloads directory. I had previously attempted a large file download but error message said it was not completed. Now cannot download anything

Firefox is refusing to open sites I am trying to access from links in my protonmail email account. It is giving me a message saying the sites are potential threats. "pdpwbj.clicks.mlsend.com" is what it tells me is the problem.

This is something I do everyday without issue. It isn't limited to one source of emails/websites - it is all of them.

I have cleared cache and history already. Help please as I need to access these websites for my work and having to go to all the individual websites and then to search for the linked content is taking a lot of time I don't normally use because I can just load using the links.

Thank you

My Firefox updates automatically, often when I'm away from my computer. When I installed Firefox initially, I told it not to create a desktop shortcut, but apparently that note didn't get stored anywhere. Every time it updates, it creates a new desktop shortcut. Every time, I delete it. This is getting old.

I'm on a Windows 10 machine and my Firefox settings show that I've selected "Automatically install updates (recommended)" with the optional "When Firefox is not running" also selected. But I don't see anything that will prevent new desktop shortcuts from being created. How can I make it stop?

(And this is not a good answer.)

During Web Dev Refreshing my website causes an error with Javascript.

In specific when I first load the website my javascript disc access works fine (correction: It breaks most of the time), it grabs the specific json file I need and at the correct index. However, upon a refresh, the script runs, and breaks (if it was working before). This wonkiness is creating a big problem for the website I am working on as I would like it to work. (To note: the Javascript loads without any errors on Chrome and other browsers).
