I am trying to comprehend the VPN button on the toolbar. It clearly has an "x" to close the vpn icon, but instead it brings it up. What is the "x" close icon intending to close?

Also, while I understand it is a useful tool, I do not understand why VPN is auto-added to the toolbar. That should be an option for the user. For most people it is just adding noise, or a few extra clicks to hide. I like the way Brave does it, handling it similarly to private browsing. Is there a way to use it this way?

Thanks for any guidance/info.

After the recent Firefox update to 151.0 I can no longer log into Facebook. The reCAPTCHA is now broken. I did a system restore to version 150.0.3 and it works fine. Something is broken and I don't want to restore all my computers and devices. Thank You.

When trying to view a Fusion 360 model or a Sketchup 3D model, I get a message that WEBGL is not supported by my device. It has always worked in the past and still works under Opera and Chrome.

With all the background auto updates, it's hard to determine what changes have been made to my PC prior to it stopped working.

After searching for solutions and going through the checklist:- 1. My video (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti) drivers are up to date, 2. "Use hardware acceleration when available" is checked in Firefox. 3. "WEBGL.disabled" is set to false.

Is there some other tweak in Firefox that I'm missing? I'm assuming it's a Firefox issue/bug as it works in other browsers... just tested Edge... worked OK.

I'm running Windows 11 on a fairly high end PC which I believe is up to date. Last checked 12 hours ago.

Any suggestions would be appreciated... however, please consider that I'm just a dumb user and not a techo.

I had security set to strict in previous version and it blocked the ads in Yahoo email. With this new version I haven't found a way to do this. Please enable the feature again or let me know if there is a workaround.

When I click to save a bookmark, the menu that allows you to select the folder to save it to is no longer being displayed. If I click the save bookmark option again, it gives the option to edit the bookmark like it has always done. The bookmark menu then pops up and shows the bookmark is saved in whatever folder you had saved a bookmark in previously. I am on a desktop using windows 11. This has been happening for the last couple of days. I have shutdown the computer and also tried restarting but am still not able to see the selection box when saving a bookmark. I am also current on firefox updates and windows updates.

Hi,

I've got Firefox with 4 adblockers: AdBlocker Ultimate, AdLock, Element Blocker and uBlock Origin. Still, https://www.youtube.com/c/franceinfo/live (news channel) sneaks ads before and after the weather forecasts. "C'était la météo avec Florette" (you watched the weather forecast with Florette salad sauce - of course I didn't!).

I can't find how to get rid of it. Please advise.

Firefox updated to 151.0 last yesterday and now the background of the search selection box has changed color to white from its earlier setting. I have tried a bunch of things but cannot find the CSS needed to restore it to what it was (it was overridden with an image). The image below shows the new, white, version, and what I am trying to do is restore it so that it is overridden with the same background image as the rest of the header. What is the rule needed to override the background of this new box (the box with the colorful "G" and downward caret)?

While on my bank account, I have always been able to click on see image of check. And a copy of the cashed check would be able to bee seen. For whatever reason I can no longer see a check image. Box opens, no image.

Thanks for your help, Jasmine

The Firefox icon on the taskbar on my PC suddenly appeared to have a 'rosette' stuck to it. I didn't understand what was happening? I decided it was not relevant to me and while I was attempting to get rid of it, I unintentionally deleted my personal profile in "Profiles"! This contained many important bookmarks and the important password manager extension. I am not very technical, but please can you show me how to recover my profile? Many thanks, Norman Clarke

I was invited to get the free built-in Mozilla VPN. (This is actually the second time it popped up when I opened Firefox. The first time, I was busy, so I didn't have time to read about it.) This time I signed in to Mozilla and selected Version 149 (because the article said that's what was being rolled out now). In the toolbar, I don't see the prompt inviting me to set it up. Does that mean I'm not eligible? Also, I'm not even sure I can SEE the Firefox toolbar. I've been thinking about getting a VPN, so this time I jumped on the free offer for the built-in VPN. I also get hundred of spam emails and ads, so I thought it might help with that problem, too. Thanks.

We thought this is simple. But it looks like we need to have words explained to us. Setting firefox to never remember history makes it produce some claims that it looks like it developers aren't really aware of the meaning of. Setting it to "Never remember history" makes it automatically check "Clear cookies and site data every time you close Firefox" and "Based on your history settings, Firefox deletes cookies and site data from your session when you close the browser.". After having done that firefox forces a restart. We use it a little bit and close it again. Then open it up and re-enable "Remember history". It will force another restart, and then suddenly remember all the things it was told not to remember. Like automatically relogging into google for you, opening tabs, and things like that.

So. Can someone explain to us the meaning of the words "forget", "never", "history", "clear", "cookies and site data", "every time", "close firefox", "deletes", "close the browser". We thought it couldn't be more obvious that what the user intends with these settings is for you to delete the user data. Like you claim you do. And then you wonder why people say firefox is bought and payed for by google. If anyone of you can find the time to take your tongues out of google long enough to define these words for us we would forever be thankful. Can please someone please teach us please english please?

Can you enable members to pin there folders and pages in the bookmark bar so that it looks neater and can fit more pages and folders etc, even multiple pages and folders together same as the tab bar,

also allow more power to open and use more tabs at the same time upto as many as will fit on page, 50?

i use manual traffic exchanges, which i have to surf and change tabs regulary and faster to surf more manual traffic exchange websites, we need this to build up free advertising credits to promote our programes and business opportunities.

Also can i add all my GMAIL, yahoo mail and notepad accounts together in 1 fixed pinned dropdown tab instead of using up multiple tabs.
