We are currently working with Open Kiosk version 115 in a VM. The VM successfully launches and starts from the web page we configured.

However, we’ve encountered an issue: when attempting to switch to full screen (either in an RDP session or using a special viewer developed by our company), the browser image fails to resize properly.

We conducted tests with older versions and found that this issue does not occur in Open Kiosk version 91. Additionally, if we access the Open Kiosk settings by pressing Shift+F1, then exit and try again, the problem resolves itself—but only for the specific VM where this adjustment was made. Other instances created from the same VM continue to exhibit the issue.

This is a critical issue for us. If a user is on a laptop with a small screen and the browser cannot resize to full screen, it renders Open Kiosk impractical for our needs.

Hello In my Thunderbird (Windows 10), undated to last release, I have several mailboxes. For one mailbox (and only this) I am getting error messages like these:

"Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox." and "The folder ‘Inbox on .......' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system

I have deactivated the relevant functions on antivirus software (Kaspersky) and still get the error. I have also tried to start in restricted mode, still the same message.

Any suggestion? best regards Bertin

Every time I run Thunderbird, it appears to lose its IMAP connection(s) after 10-15 minutes. I've tried varying the number of cached connections from 1 to 10 with no difference in behavior.

Restarting Thunderbird will restore connectivity temporarily, until the entire process starts over again.

It seems to be correlated to saving a copy of sent messages. The sending process times out while the message is being saved to the Sent folder after the SMTP sending is complete.

Once this happens, new mail doesn't appear, moving mail between folders has no effect, and some (but not all) messages can't be retrieved from the server.

This is an odd one I've not encountered before. I have TB installed on 2 laptops at home. They are up-to-date with 128.6.0 installed, and both are using the same wi-fi system.

All of a sudden a few days ago, TB on one of the laptops, but not the other, became noticeably slow in deleting messages. It now takes a few seconds for what before always happened instantly (and still does on the other laptop).

Not the end of the world but it's annoying and I'm hoping there's an easy fix.

Thanks for any help.

My Samsung laptop uses Microsoft Outlook and it just froze my gptucha@comcast emails on the laptop (but not Samsung S23 phone). This after a failed effort to start a 1password account that refused for transfer saved passwords from Firefox, and also won't let Firefox use saved PWs to open sites. This remains a problem even after theoretically deleting the 1password account from phone (a success) and laptop (partial success; icons still appear and require manual PW entries by me. I'm confused about the FF and Duck-Duck interface and maybe I should delete Duck-Duck if FF provides the same amenities and privacy? -- Greg gregoryptucha@gmail.com

Greetings. I have Windows 10 Home and have used Firefox for my primary browser for many years. I recently noted that by opening Firefox and looking at my task manager it shows 14 processes running. This causes my memory usage to jump significantly from the 50's into the 70's. The performance on searches,etc. seems okay. I recently added Browser Guard and was wondering if that was the reason for the jump in memory usage. As a side note I ran an update on Onedrive and now I have a white circle with a check mark on the desktop shortcut that I use for Firefox ... Thanks to all for any assistance regarding these questions ....

Current browser version: Firefox (Android)134.0 (Build #2016064983), hg-b8005f63d9eb+ GV: 134.0-20241230151726 AS: 134.0 ___

Hello everyone,

Previously, it was possible to configure Firefox so it would stay in the background while opening tabs from links activated in other apps. Thus, said apps would stay in the foreground until Firefox is called to the front.

The desired result was achieved by editing the setting `browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground` in "about:config", which is no longer available.

If such a configuration is yet possible, how is it achieved?

Thank you.
