www.sejda.com,Your Computer Clock is Wrong Your computer thinks it is Jul 11, 2026, which prevents Firefox from connecting

I am having the problem a fix was created for previously where attempts to sign in to my google account continually redirect to a request to clear cache and cookies. Have done so multiple times, still can't log in. Can log in on Chrome so definitely a Firefox-specific issue.

We have resolved an issue with Google prompting users to ‘clear cookies and site data’ when logging in. A fix has been published, via Firefox remote settings that does not require a Firefox upgrade. Users will receive the update over the next 6hrs, if you would like to update immediately simply restart Firefox.

Note: The issue was related to CHIPS being enabled in Fx131, this feature has been temporarily disabled while we resolve the issues. Users who have disabled 'Allow Firefox to install and run studies' in Privacy & Security settings will need to enable to receive the update.

Over the years I've added dozens of additional search engines; periodically I've "archived" lesser used search engines by toggling their visibility (to reduce clutter and speed up my search process), and when an "archived" engine becomes relevant to me again I've simply toggled the engine back to a visible state. However, as of version 152, this functionality appears to have been removed for user-added search engines. Is there a way to restore this functionality?

I've searched here and elsewhere on the web for a workaround, and perused the about:config variables, but have not been able to find anything. The show/hide functionality is still present for builtin search engines, so it seems like there must be some way to restore it for all search engines.

Thanks in advance for your help!

In Windows 10, FIREFOX is preventing the proper operation of the Windows 10 feature called MOUSE KEYS when FIREFOX is operating. MOUSE KEYS is a very important capability to individuals with certain disabilities.

MOUSE KEYS enables the use of the numbered keys on the NUMERIC KEYPAD to be used to move the cursor around when the NUM LOCK key is turned ON, as a substitute for using a mouse. Does Mozilla have a way to prevent FIREFOX from defeating this MOUSE KEYS feature?

Google AI indicated that there is a solution specifically for FIREFOX. That capability is built into FIREFOX and begins by using "about:config" to reset a parameter named "permissions.default.shortcuts" from either "0" or "1" to "2". I successfully implemented the steps in this solution by changing that value from its default value of "0" in my computer system, to "2", but no change resulted. MOUSE KEYS continued to malfunction in the same way.

After exhaustive testing looking for a pattern, I finally found one. The malfunction appears to be the following: With the MOUSE KEYS feature activated in the WINDOWS 10 set up, and with NUM LOCK turned ON to assure that this function is ON, each of the numeric keys, 0 through 9 on the keypad, cycles through the different MOUSE KEYS functions of all ten of these keys, in ascending order by their number. For example, if you press key 7 for ten times in a row, it will cycle through each of the ten MOUSE KEYS functions associated with the keys 0-9 to occur, returning on the tenth press to the function that was executed the first time that key 7 was pressed, and so one endlessly through multiple cycles. And similarly for each of the other ten numbered keys.

A similar type of malfunction of MOUSE KEYS occurs with any BROWSER program that I have tried, including GOOGLE CHROME and BRAVE. I gather from GOOGLE AI that browser programs INTERCEPT the codes generated by the numeric keys on the numeric key pad and change those codes before sending the codes to the WINDOWS 10 operating system, and thus to MOUSE KEYS, for execution, causing this problem.

Is there a solution for FIREFOX what will restore the proper function of the MOUSE KEYS feature of Windows 10, when FIREFOX is being used? Thank you for any help that you can provide.

Hi,

After the last two updates, the **Pseudo-elements** tab in the Browser Console can no longer be closed once it has been opened, and vice versa.

Please see the video below demonstrating the issue:

Thanks.

Hey guys, so I always have a bunch of tab groups as it helps me organize my tabs. But every time I accidentally close Firefox or my pc resets, all the tab groups are gone. UNLIKE google chrome where, even if I close chrome they will be on the toolbar for me to open again. So could you please add this feature on firefox as well because this is getting very irritating because I have to open the individual tabs again and again? Thank you.

I'm running Firefox on Win10 with no options to upgrade to 11. Since the latest firefox update installed, I'm getting a screen that says "Oops, something's wrong," and then I'm kicked out of gmail. A screen asks about sending a report to Firefox, which I check OK for. Today this is happening about every minute to 30 seconds . What needs to happen?

I would like to see someone come up with a templated browser (or page) that's specific to Facebook which would include the now removed feature of the list of contacts they used to have on their feed page. At one time this list used to be included on the wall as well. I would use that list when viewing FB to show me not only who was currently online, but who was most likely viewing the content I posted. Sadly, to the frustration of many Facebook has changed this feature to a collapseable menu represented with an icon... and at the top of the list when brought up, is a link to the Meta AI (a feature I would also like to block) which I've found can and will chat with a user, although not in a manner I consider satisfactory.

How do I stop this page from coming up several times a day. I have already set FireFox as my default browser, several times, but to no avail. I've careful followed your instructions. I dislike MS and have used FF for years. If this doesn't stop, I'll search for another browser that hopefully behave. I have set it on 4 computers, 2 Win 10, 2 Win 11.

By the way, the computers show FireFox twice, but only one actual installation.

Please do better!

...even though the settings are exactly the same as the other laptops everyone in the group. Why are these bugs not disclosed ? One set of problems exchanged for another -- reminds me of Microsoft 'upgrades'. Whatever happened to the post about Addon icons spontaneously disappearing ? Another release bug ? And then there was the "Bookmarks vertical spacing not optimized", which promulgated a response soliciting me to, "...describe the problem...". Quite a unique experience. For us.

Turned on laptop this morning after arriving at work -- Addon icons gone and Addons not functioning. Why was this fault in 152.0.5 not disclosed before committing to upgrading the the browsers I support for distance consultants ? Click the Manage Extensions icon and there are no "gears" to click to "Pin to toolbar". This is terrible. I have a half hour until those folks arrive at work in Lost Angeles. Wow. I want to revert to a previous version. Where do I get them ? I am a DBA and NOT support for unstable browsers. FF consistently causing me time and money but "befehl ist befehl" and it is the browser we are ordered to use. I believe management has conflated Free and Functional/useful when selecting our S/W tools.

This is unbelievable ! I posted this again in response to somebody not being able to comprehend, "Bookmark Spacing Vertical Intervals Not Optimized". What the Hell else do I need to add to clarify that ? You don't want, can't or refuse to answer -- I get that. But DO NOT rope-a-dope me be typing it's not clear or you don't comprehend what, Bookmark Spacing Vertical Intervals Not Optimized means. It is a clear, concise description of an IT problem. I have zero clue how to describe it any other way. This is flabbergasting -- it is a well-known problem but all the solutions offered I have seen are garbage. Am wasting huge amounts of time and money, neighbor ! I can't submit a bill for all this runaround !
