Please appreciate that alternative text is not always applicable.

I use the Add Image button to tick off things on a list (add image of a tick) - for my own personal use, not suitable for webviewing. Halfway through the task these Alt Text warnings just obliterate my view of the document; my attempts to not have to print it, or not have to use Adobe, are thwarted.

I'm looking at a page of grey blocks that contain a triangle which in turn contains an exclamation mark, and I can no longer see the actual document behind them.

Sorry if I've posted in the wrong place. I posted this under Thunderbird in error, whatever that is, and I reposted it under Firefox, but that;s gone. So if you find a duplicate question, I'm sorry.

Thank you for your help. I have two questions and concerns. 1. The title bar of Firefox displays "Original Profile". I've been using it as is, as there aren't any particular problems, but it bothers me, so I'm asking if there's a way to hide it. My second question is: 2. In Firefox settings → Search → Search Shortcuts, unnecessary search engines are displayed. Even if I delete them, they reappear when I change the language in the settings. Is this a Firefox specification? Is there any way to prevent them from being displayed again after deleting them?

Once a week or so, Firefox crashes unexpectedly. The popup indicates its alerting Microsoft of the crash, but apparently not notifying Mozilla.

Once such a crash occurs, I close Firefox. Reopening it results in a crash shortly after all tabs open and I click on something (usually 3 or 4 tabs are open). No matter how many times I let Firefox close and then I reopen it, the crash recurs. The only recovery is a complete reboot of my PC.

How can I get and submit crash reports to support in hopes of getting a resolution?

"I am a dedicated open-source supporter who has helped 19 new users switch to Zorin OS and Firefox to ensure their privacy. Recently, on the official Zorin OS forum, I was silenced and threatened with a ban by a 'Community Leader' for defending Firefox's Gecko engine.

They accused me of 'advertising' and 'spamming' simply because I shared how many people I’ve converted to Firefox to show the impact of digital freedom. I am reporting this because it’s discouraging to see major Linux communities treat Firefox supporters as spammers. I hope Mozilla looks into how their advocates are being treated in other OS ecosystems."

A little over a week ago I logged on asking a question related to the inability of the download I had made of the current version of Firefox to install on my new windows 11 Pro laptop. There were a couple of answers, the last of which was posted by James, who is identified as a Moderator.

I made not of his response, logged out of the forum and followed his instructions. I found that he had accurately diagnosed the problem and had responded with a very successful answer.

Over the following week I attempted several times to log back onto the forum and replying to his response to thank him for his assistance and let other forum members know that his effort was appreciated.

At no time was I able to return to my question, find his response and properly thank him for his effort. Each time I returned to my question I was blocked from doing anything other than reading my question. I could not even access the replies..

That is not in the interest of the forum's users and is an insult to the hard working moderators whose efforts must be duly acknowledged and lauded.

I suggest that some changes to this website are due and whomever the powers may be that make stupid decisions which maybe harmful to its users should be given the heave-ho and be returned to that unspeakable place from which they evolved.

Thank you James. You did an excellent job and should be commended!

I installed Firefox Developer Edition and I am having the following issues, whenever I go to Indeed and I go to a job posting the browser opens up additional tabs without my permission or me doing so. Also the browser does the same in Canvas when I go to my course the browser automatically opens up new tabs without my permission and also me doing so. The Firefox Developer Edition browser update is Firefox Developer Edition is up to date 152.0b7 (64 bit). The following extensions are installed AdBlocker Ultimate, FoxyProxy Basic, Ghostery AdBlocker For Privacy, Malwarebytes Browser Guard, Privacy Badger, and UBlock Origin. This behavior got super annoying and I don't know how to fix it. Any help on how to fix this would be appreciated. My operating system is Windows 11.

I posted a question about 6-7 days ago and received a couple of replies. The last one (from DENYS) sent me to an article that guided me to a resolution to my problem. I had to wait a couple of days to assure me that the fix worked. I now wish to reply to the last answer (to DENYS) to let him know he helped me. I logged into Mozilla.support and found the Community Forums and scanned the entered 'asked' questions but could not find my first question (got tired of scanning forever). How do I go DIRECTLY to my first entered question? Or is there even a way? After 30 minutes of this, I can see there are a zillion questions in this support file and wonder that anyone finds time to answer them all (kudos) to you all. But I want to acknowledge that DENYS did, in fact, help me. How do I do that - DIRECTLY? Now I've put another question into the long question file (sorry). Jim Bigger

Repeatedly asking you: how to get rid of Bing. Don't know how this became my default search engine. "manage search engines" does not even provide a toggle to add Firefox/Mozilla. Pressing on Bing toggle does not remove Bing.
