Firefox Community Forum

I'm struggling to disable this behavior of firefox. When I type "something: text", it's opening a pop-up asking "Open link with System Handler?".

I would rather just search the internet for "something: text".

How can I do that?

I've tried to play with parameters like network.protocol-handler.expose.something network.protocol-handler.app.something network.protocol-handler.external.something network.protocol-handler.warn-external.something

but didn't manage to do it

I am currently using Windows 11 (64 bit). I have installed Firefox in a separate drive instead of Local C to save space. Now that I have done so, the automatic update fails often which causes me to try and find the custom installation on the Firefox download page. I use https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/custom-installation-firefox-on-windo... page to try to find the correct installer.

Unfortunately, the download page that I was directed to, I can't seem to find the custom installation setup. When I click download, it keeps giving me the automatic Firefox Installer and proceeds to add Firefox on my C drive rather than the Mozilla Firefox Setup Wizard.

Can someone kindly direct me to where I can download the Mozilla Firefox Setup Wizard to update Firefox?

all the sights I've used for years will not open and will not work I can't even use them any more they work fine in other browsers don't know what you did but it is almost unusable

yesterdays settings were upgraded. This firefox upgrade completely messed up my desktop computer -can not access many sites as before. Want to go back to the last upgrade

When i try to connect to some websites, firefàx prompts "error 502 bad gateway" the same websites work on EDge !

Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server atxxxxxxxxx

Error code: 502 Bad Gateway

. The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. . If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. . If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

Try Again

Very often, Firefox asks at startup: “Should I open Firefox every time I restart my computer?” I don’t need this function, how can I remove this request forever?

There are only two buttons: 1. Yes, open Firefox 2. Not now :(

I noticed a wierd popup when opening mozilla. It said "you're always starting mozilla when starting the pc". How and why does an internet browser have to have any information regarding when I boot my PC? What else does mozilla look at outside the browser environment?

If they claim it's needed for performance: Illogical, boot times have nothing to do with the internet browser. If referring to general performance then you can't possibly track and tailor every new piece of hardware that enters the market. Instead you make your browser with prerequisites that you yourself control (eg. install vcredist for this browser to work or something like that).

Why then is Mozilla monitoring my computer when the browser isn't even open or running?

Distorted fonts and graphics. I've tried: 1. disabling graphic acceleration 2. change default fonts 3. reinstall firefox 4. remove extensions

Seems to be mostly fonts but perhaps also graphics. Only happens in firefox. Please help. Thanks

When using the AI chatbot in the Firefox browser, I cannot click to the left of a certain coordinate only when Claude is open. This issue does not occur with other AI bots (such as ChatGPT or Gemini). What could be the cause? My environment is as follows:

OS: Windows 11 Pro x64 Firefox version: 147.0.4

Additionally, tabs are set to vertical display, and the sidebar expands only when the cursor hovers over it.

Thanks.

When I am using the Firefox browser and am on a site that asks for my email, there is a Firefox dropdown with a list of email addresses. There are many email addresses on this drop down list and I cannot find where I can edit that list.

Nothing is the Autofill settings comes up. Where is that list of autofill email addresses?

i am getting an error message from one gmail.com email account and suggested to clear my firefox cache. Where is that
