Firefox (current version:137.0.2 64-bit) does not allow drag from outlook on the web and drop on windows 11 file explorer. It shows a forbidden sign when i am dropping on file explorer.

How this problem can be solved?

Since the last update (136.0.4 (64bit)) firefox only partially shows an embedded google spreadsheet. It was fine in the previous version. Tried turning off enhanced tracking protection, but that didn't do anything.

I've used Firefox for many years. The past month or so weather radar doesn't come up on multiple weather sites, pages are slow to load or don't load, getting error codes on video's, pictures don't always load, and many other problems. I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed the current browser and I still have all these problems. I'm having to use another browser now. I run Windows 11 on my PC.

Sat. 04/19/2025 @9:10 am CDT - Hi. About 2 months ago on any Settings page, FF began to show "your browser is being managed by your organization." The problem is - it's a STANDALONE box, not connected to any network beyond my ISP. I do own websites but I'm not perpetually logged into the host company, so their switch to Microsoft Entra wouldn't have an effect, I would think.

What settings do I change to make FF know that I'm not on a network? Thanks in advance.

Firefox will not play video from a website. If I save the video, it is a MP4 file. Windows Media Player and VLC will play the video file. But the browser shows the message: "No video with supported format and MIME type found."

Chrome and Edge will play this video correctly in their browsers. Firefox will not play the video on 3 different computers, and even when a different user account is involved (without Firefox sync).

The evidence seems to point at firefox. The website is a Wordpress site.

Is it possible that the website is the problem? If so, why do Edge and Chrome work?

I uninstalled Firefox (latest version) and reinstalled it. Not fixed.

My windows updates are current, as are Dell updates.

This is stumping me. I hope someone can help.

Having issues with my Bluetooth AirPods and sound in Firefox. The problem being there is no sound when the device is connected and watching a YouTube video for instance. Things went wonky after the recent update to 133.0.3. At first there was no sound period. Then somehow, not even sure how, I saw that Firefox was muted in Windows (11 Pro) settings. That's a mystery unto itself since I'd never previously gone to that area. Now that I have volume through external speakers working, audio through AirPods doesn't. Everything works fine using Edge and audio from music. I know the device is connected and when that is, it's the default for where sound comes from. Used the test thing and yup there is audio. Is there something I'm missing? There must be but I can't figure out what it is. Hopefully someone reading this can point me in the right direction of resolving this issue. Thank you in advance.

As I was downloading a video from Google Photos, it showed the yellow by the download arrow and said it failed. I tried multiple file types: mpeg, jpeg, mp4, exe. I googled what to do and my answer was: Disable extensions, start in safe mode, clear cookies, clear history, clear download history. I did all that and I can still not download. I restarted my computer and nothing changed. on FF version 136.0.2

I have a new desktop i7 computer with 16 GB of RAM. Why are my Firefox browser screens locking up? I'm running Windows 11 Pro. I don't have this problem with Chrome.

I have tried everything. I've gone into the permissions, I have it set that everything is allowed. I reset and forgot the sites multiple times, zoom and Google Meets, and when I reload still the same issue. It says I do not have a camera. The camera works for both Edge and the camera app on my laptop. I even checked my settings on my laptop, and Firefox has permission to access my camera. However, in the camera request history, it does not show that Firefox asked for access to my camera. It also says the last time it accessed my camera was last year, but I have been trying to get it to work this entire time. I am updated with Windows 11 and the latest update of Firefox. How do I fix this? Is it an issue with Firefox or Windows?

I would like to open attached docs and print them. They are appearing all black with some verbiage, or multiple pages are all white. What is going on? How can I fix this? Step by step instructions, please. Technically challenged. I do NOT use cloud. will not be using it due to privacy and hacking issues. I save everything to my harddrive.

cannot open allmusic.com website anymore on firefox. this website opens fine on other browsers. Only Firefox is the problem. Any suggestions?

I currently use Norton360. I attempted to use their Driver Updater and later Utilities software. Neither worked to any satisfaction. Does anyone know of an all in one program that satisfies these categories using Windows 11?

My issue is that if I access the upper right corner of the screen, titled "Open Application Menu" and go to Settings I'm told my Browser is not the default AFTER THE PROCESS OF JUST MAKING IT THE DEFAULT.

It seems there is an effort to try and drive all of us nuts. This never happened before, and if it continues it will be the end of electronic communications (which it is suspected is the plan by those who engage in violence to achieve their objectives).

What I came here for was to have my settings, after the process (done many times previously) show a response in Settings that, "Yes" my browser (Firefox) is the default, which it did for a time today. Obviously there is no persistence.

When I got help on this issue previously, my response was I already tried that, and it didn't work. There used to be a lot of different browsers. Now I haven't come across any of them currently. Some are having great success in seeing to it that only their browser will survive. That seems like a "gangland" type of mentality to me.link text I believe I spent enough of my time on this issue and explained it in detail. There's really nothing else I can "contribute".

I, by the way, went to my Internet provider today who found an email under Preferences that she said had the capability to steel my emails. It had an extension in Australia (*.AU). If that has anything to do with this problem I'd like to buy a pair of handcuffs to see if that individual(s) being constrained from using a PC keyboard is a cure for this problem.

Please provide the exact requirements for defaults in order to have the settings (occurring on the bookmarks settings) to state that Firefox is your default browser. Having had to attempt this process multiple times causes me to question if it is the user that needs some "tender loving care".

I recently installed Firefox on my new laptop. During install I recall seeing a pop up for McAfee. I think I clicked that I didn't want it. After using Firefox for a little while, a McAfee pop up appeared about being on a dangerous site. (This is one that I have been on numerous times before and my preferred virus protection has not had an issue with it.) Does Firefox automatically install McAfee even when we don't want it? I searched through my apps and found a McAfee Webmaster app and uninstalled it. I have inadvertently had McAfee added on other computers and have had nothing but problems with it. If Firefox wants to associate itself with McAfee, I am having my doubts about what else is being added to my computer. Should I be concerned?
