Running FF 138 64-bit on Win 10 Home, and tabs won't combine. When I move one tab over another, I get NO GLOWING RING, and the tabs just swap places as I move the first tab over the second one, no matter how slowly I move them. It doesn't work in Vertical Tabs, either.

I've been using google messages for web in firefox for some time. I'd pair firefox and pin the tab. Works great. However, with a new laptop the messages for web tab/page will not auto update as it does on other computers and I have to manually reload the page for it to show the updated messages. I'm not sure the cause or settings that would be needed to allow it to query the server for rcs/sms updates.

Hello,

My experience with Firefox has been great for more than 15 years. However recently there's been a trend of adding new functionality without asking the user whether they want it or not. Moreover, some things cannot be disabled even if I try hard enough.

It was an unpleasant surprise to discover that "This time, search with" panel was removed without my consent, and is now replaced by an extremely inconvenient button. I firmly believe that this is not how UX design is done, and whoever made that choice needs to reevaluate their decision.

How can I revert this change besides rolling back the browser version?

The setting "browser.urlbar.scotchBonnet.enableOverride" did not help, it reverts to *true* on every restart. I have not been able to find any other settings, and I believe that this is not something that a user should do their research on.

Is there a way to affect this change?

Hello,

I dislike the Group Tabs feature. So many times I've accidentally created a Group Tab and then had to figure out how to un-group them.

I've tried to change the value of the "browser.tabs.groups.enabled" preference to false, but it doesn't stick; after restarting, the value is always back to "true".

What’s up with this?

Thanks, Andre’a

MY FF recently updated to version 1380.1 (64bits) and my Sidebar Bookmarks are gone. That is I have to manually put them back every time I now start FF. I want them to always show when I start FF. When I need extra screen space, I would click the X and they'd disappear for that session. And when I was done, I'd click on View - Bookmarks they'd be reinstalled. And when I shut FF down and returned later, they'd be right there where I need them.

My question is, how do I get back to that setup?

I keep getting error message "Something went wrong - Retry" when trying to reach an Audacy.com web page at https://www.audacy.com/stations/wccoradio . This does NOT happen when I use another browser (Chrome), but it happens about 95% of the time in Firefox. When I click the "Retry" button, it still gives me the same error message. I tried clearing out the cookies and cache but this did not help. I have attached a screenshot of the error message. Why am I getting this error message in Firefox but not in Chrome, and what can I do about it?

I have 2 computers, both with Linux Ubuntu. All of a sudden one of them is missing the File toolbar. It was there this AM but gone now. I looked through the menu and couldn't find where it is that you add the toolbar. On this computer, which has that toolbar, you go to 'view" and there is an item for toolbar. But on the other there are none of those menus and I can't find where to add that toolbar.

I added the duckduckgo extension and gave it the required permissions, but despite it saying that it set duckduckgo as the default search engine, it hadn't even showed up on the list at all. I tried removing and adding back the extension, but that didn't work either.
