Firefox Community Forum

I just started getting a message saying Facebook was breached back in 2023. Never got any message prior to this week. Situation is: I moved to a new city and can no longer see ANY of my passwords saved on Firefox. It's basically saying I have to change them ALL! Even if I tried, it's required to know the previous password to change the password on many, if not ALL the account passwords. The message says I was breached, but I wasn't. FIX IT PLEASE!!!

Hello all, I have two HP computers running Win10 home on the ESU program and will be buying new computers in several months with Win11 factory installed. One is an Omen desktop and the other is a Envy laptop. I noticed in my Event Viewer after updating Firefox to 147 that I am now getting three consecutive 10016 DCOM Warnings every time I open Firefox. This has never happened before in all the years I have used Firefox. Now I completely understand that we should just ignore 10016 DCOM https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/application-management/event-10016-logged-when-accessing-dcom but I find it strange that all of a sudden it is now happening and only for Firefox and on both computers. I do have the procedure to fix DCOM errors but do not like messing with the registry and permissions even though I have in the past with no problems but there is always that chance that it could and I do not want to risk it. I was wondering if any other users are seeing this in their Event Viewer System Log for Firefox or is this a known or unknown Firefox update problem or what.

Respectfully, Don

AI has been repeatedly shown to be extremely eco-unfriendly, and a large portion of the population actively avoids its usage, finding it to be intrusive in standard usage and unhelpful.

Why is Mozilla choosing to implement this undesirable feature?

Since Update 147 just a half hour ago I am having trouble with pages not accepting commands. ChatGPT the Login does nothing,along with the things I have shown in attached. A few other pages that I thought was my computer playing up and did not take notice of. Any ideas and please no "dont use ChateGPT ect" I just need fixes to my problem.

This is a brand new problem, for me. It just started today when using FireFox. On nearly all websites, including Mozilla support, when I click on an embedded link on a site, firefox asks me to select an app to open the https. Even if I tell it to let firefox open all https, it still asks me everytime. to make it better, it still doesn't always let me open the link and I go through the same thing when I click the link again.

This also happens when clicking on the search box in *any* search engine, e.g. Google, Startpage

See the image below.

I've attempted to change all cookie & tracking settings, no help. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox.

This is making FireFox useless.

I had to use my default browser, Brave, just to submit this question. I only use FireFox for social media accounts, sites I need to link to my sm accounts and the occasional web search. For example, linking my Etsy shop to facebook. When I clicked the link "link to facebook" is when I noticed this problem.

Since upgrading to 147 last night, ChatGPT does not work and there are issues with other websites (Amazon side bar). Numerous people reported it on reddit. Any suggestions for a fix?

What is best way to transfer my Firefox acct from Win 10 computer to Win 11 on new computer? Please give detailed, step-by-step instructions. I am not tech savvy and have no tech help. Thank you. Tasha

Hi I just saw the new info on backing up my Firefox data. It sounded good, so I tried it. However I do not see 'Manage Backup'. Instead it asks 'Choose backup file'. I have never knowingly backed up Firefox, so I do not know where this backupfile is located... How can I find it? How do I create a new backup file? Many thanks An

So I guess my Firefox update to ver. 147 from 146 by its auto update feature, but I realized all the past personal data (ie, history, cookies, passwords, profile, etc) was gone.

I have Mozilla Account (I think it's the same as Firefox Account back in the old days), so my personal data is now retrieved from some device as far as possible, but I lost local personal settings like Shortcuts on the main page on my laptop,p which is the main device to do everything.

I can't help what happened to me, and I will rebuild what I used to be on that day, but I am curious if it's just me, or there is some logic to cause this data loss.

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

Hello, I would like, with userChrome (css), to make it so that the active tab has no line at the bottom, but that there is a line that starts on the right side of the browser and when it reaches the tab, it wraps around it (goes up on one side, comes down on the other side, and continues horizontally from the other side. I included a picture that illustrates this on an older version of Firefox.

I cannot connect with my on-line banking site. When I try, I get the message "Bad Request--Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit. I am able to access the site using another browser, so there cannot be a problem with the site itself. This situation has only existed since Firefox did an update. So, the problem must lie with Firefox. If it is not fixed, then I fear that I will have to discontinue using Firefox as my online browser. Please have someone from technical support contact me. [edited email from community support forum]

Web pages that are supposed to contain emojis are blank. I can highlight where emojis are supposed to be shown but the actual images of the emojis aren't there. about:config font.name-list.emoji correctly contains "Apple Color Emoji" If it is relevant, this has been a bug/issue that has persisted for a couple of months now (can't name an exact date).
