Hello,

I can't figure out how to add a custom search shortcut, is this no longer possible in Firefox (without installing addons/extensions)?

I recall 'custom search' being more or less ubiquitous, and feel like there was an "Add" button below the Search Shortcuts UI not that long ago.

Bookmarks with keywords would be a reasonable workaround if it weren't for having to prefix the keyword to the search terms.

Thank you, Kyle

Okay, i have been using librewolf for awhile now since i got my desktop fully built. today i went to go search something related to my phone and instead of using duckduckgo it automatically used Google. i do not want this and have no idea how to fix it

Hello, I received an email from you asking me to change my Firefox password for account security reasons. When I changed it, all the data synced in Firefox with my email was deleted. This upset me greatly because I lost important data and saved websites. Please restore the deleted data. Thank you.

I'm having major problems with Firefox and was able to use it for a long time and I love the software to death. But it has given this problem that I have run into before which the only way I was able to fix it was a full wipe of my computer to factory settings. So with this I started to troubleshoot on what I could do and reinstall was the first and send commands to refresh the dns but I found to what seems to be a startup incomplete file in the Firefox software and it seems to create itself even when deleted. It could be this which is causing problems but all I know for certain that when I click on Firefox it won't open at all or startup. With the only evidence that it responded from task manager or a popup talking about wanting to refresh Firefox for 0.1 milliseconds

As the Subject line says, Firefox will act like it's working normally for a little bit but shortly after using it websites stop loading and no new websites can be accessed. Usually after about 10 minutes. Closing and reopening Firefox restarts the cycle. Works for a bit, then stops. Other browsers like Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome work fine.

I've checked my Firewall, deleted and re-added Firefox, made sure it had both Public and Private Network access. Also tried using Firefox in Troubleshoot mode and tried resetting Firefox. Same behavior, made no difference.

I don't see any error messages when this happens. Tabs just spin and load indefinitely with nothing ever appearing in the window. Anyone have any ideas?

help me to use the browser!

I just simply need it to maximize.

I'm not too tech savvy. The only thing I tried was to reinstall Firefox which did not help.

First got a msg box from Firefox that my W10 PC had crashed overnite - and I could report it. My PC was back up & looked normal - but when I accessed Firefox the PC crashed - then I got the above error & blue screen and could do nothing on the PC! I restarted again - as long as I DO NOT START FIREFOX - my PC is fine. Help pls! For what it's worth, I happened to open a lot of tabs in Firefox yesterday. Drivers are up-to-date. Vicki

According to this article I should be able to activate autofill credit card details in my country https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/credit-card-autofill But the option is no where to be found and in about:config I can see it is restricted to a few countries mine not being one. I can not change the list with countries either, actually I can not change anything nor search in about:config. I am running Firefox 140.0.4 (64-bit) EDIT I made a a master password, which then made it possible for me to edit in about:config. I added my country to the extension and now I can activate it.

For no apparent reason, all Firefox 140.0.4 on Windows 10 crashed and when it was relaunched it did not restore any open tabs, reverting instead to the home page. All history is gone, no previously open tabs are windows appear in the history list. This computer has syncing enabled.

I used about: profiles on the Win 10 machine and it only shows the one that is currently in use. I copied the 2 files found in the along with places.sqlite into a temp directory. I did a search for index.dat and it is not found on the Win 10 computer.

Even worse: another computer running Win 11 that is syncing with the Win 10 machine is also now missing its history. Is there a way to recover from this?

Note: I am generating this from the Win 11 machine, not the problematic Win 10 machine.

Several web sites say that they detect this ad block on my pc , but I can not find it through my pc sites. It seems to be kind of a worm that can not be disabled. I am using Firefox.

Hello,

I just closed FF (latest version) and opened it again and all my tabs are gone. I had a private FF window open, so I am guessing this is the cause.

Is there a way to get get them back?
