Each time I click on Firefox from the Windows 11 Task Bar, multiple versions of Firefox appear in the task manager (see photo). Some have an icon next to them that says "efficiency mode".

The attached screenshot is what I got from loading Firefox to ask this question. Multiple scans of my computer using Norton 360 -- including the Startup Scan -- have found nothing awry.

The operating system is Windows 11 Pro Edition Version 24H2 (OS Build 26,100.6584.) Firefox says it is fully up to date.

For years I have used Firefox to access my Bank of America online account. I am also using Quicken kinked to Bank of America. Today, when logged into bank of America, every action I take results in being sent back to the sign on screen. After clearing with Quicken Support as requested by BOA, I was directed to use a different browser which worked normally. I was told by BOA that the issue was with Firefox.

I have an iMac and it will not log into our credit union's web site. When I goo to the log in and enter my password and such, and click on log in, nothing happens. I have a Mac Book Air with Firefox on it and it works fine. So does my wife's laptop. But my iMac doe snot work. I can use Safari to log in but not Firefox. Very annoying since I use Firefox all the time.

My c: disk is getting full, so I decided to transfer my Thunderbird profile to d: . My old Tbird profile has profile folders for two POP accounts and two IMAP accounts. I managed to copy the profile and set up new accounts and now emails work, but in the process I disconnected the old profile on c: . When trying to create a new account on c: (so that I can access the old profile to delete old mails and get more space) I run into either "incoming server already exists" or I am asked a password which I can't find.

Any help would be highly appreciated! Should I just delete the old profile, or is there a procedure to safely remove it? Or is a Tbird reinstall in order? Thanks!

Running Firefox 140.3.1 ESR on Debian, lately I've been experiencing a bug when I have several instances of Firefox open, and multiple tabs open in each instance. After a few minutes of browsing and opening and closing tabs, I am unable to drag tabs to rearrange them (above the address bar). The "X" that is part of the tab also doesn't work to close the tab, and clicking the main "hamburger" menu icon (three horizontal lines) does not drop down the menu. If I switch to a different instance of Firefox that is already running, sometimes the "hamburger" menu icon starts working (sometimes not), and I am able to exit and restart Firefox, which works for awhile, and then a few minutes later the same thing happens again. Interestingly, when it's not working, I am still able to "right-click" on the tab and choose "close tab" from the drop-down menu.

I've been trying to discern a pattern, but have not been able to find a way to reliably reproduce the error. It often seems to happen when I'm using Reddit or Craigslist (maybe only more noticable because I often open and close a lot of tabs on those two sites). At one point I thought it might be related to opening a new tab for a site that had previously been opened in another Firefox window (instance), but that may be a false lead, because I haven't been able to find a way to consistently trigger the bug.

Thank you for maintaining the best privacy-respecting browser in the world, an indispensable tool for me.

My (our) ISP started using new 'bigger/better' software. grrr

The ISP's tech support had me close (? delete ?) my Thunderbird e-mail account & start a new one.

I cannot access - use any of the ?17-19? folders. How do I, if I can, recover the folders so I can start moving relevant messages to them?

Good luck, remain WELL & be SAFE!

THANKS!

Hi I recently received an update on Windows 11 insider channel that blocked me from using Firefox and Google Chrome. It also refused to allow me to reinstall Firefox. It would not let open the browsers at all. I did everything possible-no child restrictions- no security issues-no issues with Microsoft redistributable packages. The only browser it would allow me to use was Explorer. I ended up doing a clean install of Windows 11 to fix the problem. I don’t think blocking a user from a web browser is legal but I’m not a lawyer. Thanks, Jonathan

I have over 17,000 emails in my inbox and Thunderbird won't let me send any more out. I tried to cull blocks of emails (e.g., all before 2024) but it wouldn't let me do that; it made me do one at a time.

Is there no way I can delete a whole lot in one go? SW

My bookmarks, history and passwords have disappeared. I looked at the articles, refreshed firefox, have restarted firefox and my computer multiple times but cannot retrieve them.


This is the message when I start firefox

The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem.

I downloaded filezilla and wish to set it to be the default app for ftp. Can someone help me with this? Before anyone suggests it, resetting firefox to default settings is not an option.

When I try to connect to MSNBC Live TV or Fox Sports Live TV while using Mozilla Firefox, I am asked to click on my provider (which is Verizon) so that I can verify my account. When I click on that icon (from a choice of 15 or so providers), it sends me to the Verizon page where the message is Please wait - we are verifying your account with a spinning wheel that does not stop spinning. How can this situation be rectified so that I can sign in. It worked fine for years until the last couple of weeks. Thank you, Raymond Birch

Firefox repeatedly crashes on my, multiple times a day. I'dc really like to NOT have to change my default browser to Chrome.

What happens is that Firefox freezes, and I get a white bar at the top telling me so. I get a popup box asking if I want to close Firefox or wait for it to respond. Waiting doesn't work, so I always have to close Firefox. When I reopen it, fortunately all m,y open tabs are retained, but it crashes again within minutes or seconds as soon as I click on anything.

There only thing that seems to work is a reboot of my PC. But the respite is short before Firefox crashes again.

I've disabled most plugins, but that hasn't helped. Is there a way to create an event log within Firefox that I can share with someone at Mozilla to help e debug the issue? It's got to be something local rather than Firefox itself; I can't imagine this is happening to most users.
