Firefox Community Forum

after my laptop crashed (again did so over 100 times) but this time all history is gone, could not restore last session/s - can't log into my accounts (any) - can't set it to an earlier date (e.g. yesterday) to eliminate whatever the problem is (am not an IT expert, so I don't know how - just know that it is possible) - I have tried for 4 hours - no avail - I really need the status of 4-5 hours ago so I don't lose so much

I am running Firefox 147 on a Windows 10 desktop PC. I am using DualSafe Password Manager. However, the 'Ask to save passwords' option is ticked in my Settings (see attached screenshot), and also greyed out so I can't alter it. Firefox keeps asking to save passwords for sites that I sign into. Can anyone suggest how I can fix this. To my way of thinking, if a thrid-party password manager is installed, Firefox should see this (it does) and automatically set itself to not ask.

I'm stuck in an endless loop in Firefox for Linux (MX Linux) whenever Cloudflare is used as security.

"Performing security verification

This website uses a security service to protect against malicious bots. This page is displayed while the website verifies you are not a bot."

I click "verify you are human" and it just loops back to the very same challenge. It isn't broken in other web browsers like Vivaldi for Linux. Or Firefox in Windows 11. Just Firefox for Linux.

It has been this way for months.

4 rows of links working great and sync killed it all. Data is in the prefs.js file but firefox wont read it how can I fix this? Hours I have been chasing around with ai checking all the settings etc. wth? HOW HARD DOES THIS HAVE TO BE? please help before I uninstall and never come back. Wasted way too much time!

All of a sudden I Google search in Firefox isn't fully working. I only use Firefox but I tried the same thing in Edge and that works. I can search simple things in Firefox e.g. recipe for beef stew but when I ask for natural recipe for stain remover on clothes for example it just comes up with the word "thinking" and nothing else happens. I have NOT changed any settings. Thank you. Oriel

I do web development and find that Update Available popup to be a real hassle as I am constantly reloading my browser to view edits.

How do I disable that annoying beg notice from making my life miserable?

I am having a problem with Firefox. Some websites do not load correctly and certain extensions do not work as expected.

I have already tried restarting Firefox and checking my internet connection, but the issue still happens.

Please advise how to fix this problem. Thank you.

I went to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-backup] and under "Create a Firefox backup file" at step 3 it says, "Scroll down to Backup, and click Manage backup" but when I went there no such "Manage backup" option exists as you can see in the attached screen capture. So what gives? How can I "Create a Firefox backup file"? I am using Firefox v147.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11 Please instruct. Thanks RJB

The Firefox default behaviour to reload a page for view-source even when it is already in memory is unnecessary and causes many difficulties when tracking CGI bugs.

This unnecessary reloading can be turned off by setting accessibility.blockautorefresh to true.

However, fixing these stupid page reloads this way introduces another hyper-annoying behaviour: then Firefox blocks redirects.

So this accessibility setting is bad in both possible settings. Is there a possibility to prevent reloading pages for view-source while still allowing redirects?
