I recently purchased a new computer, transferred everything over and everything seemed to going fine until tonight. I accidentally exited Firefox and when I started it again, everything was gone. I closed and tried again, same results. Not only were all open tabs gone, but so was may History. I just someone from the Geek Squad spend over 2 hours working on this, but same results. This setup has worked for years, what did I do wrong?

Firefox 139.0.1 (64-bit) on Windows 11

I occasionally increase the zoom level of websites (usually forums) with Ctrl+mouse wheel if the default text size is too small. However, if I forget to set them back to 100% (Ctrl+0) before closing the tab, the next time I open that URL, it's at the former adjusted zoom level -- not 100%. Really annoying.

How do I force Firefox to open all URLs at 100% regardless of the last custom zoom level? I have default zoom already set to 100% in Settings and Zoom Text Only is not enabled.

Thanks.

The pause feature in the debug menu doesn't always work. Pressing F8 to toggle it does in general work, but I noticed when I enter a context menu on some websites, pressing F8 with the debug menu open doesn't do anything. This is especially annoying for me because when I am making UserStyles (custom user-made CSS) for websites, some elements disappear when trying to find them in inspect element using the "pick an element from the page" feature. I thought pausing could fix it (which in other cases can) but that also wasn't working. If anyone can help me that would be appreciated!

(Also, pressing the pause button directly also makes the element disappear, so that wont work)

When I turned on my PC this morning there was a new message that popped-up that I never sent which was very difficult to cancel/close/discard so I rebooted my laptop. When I went back into Thunderbird to create a new message, the entire screen was dark and filled with coding (see screen shot below.) If I click on each element I can delete them and get back to a blank page. Also, it appears, thankfully, I am sending and receiving emails as normal. My email domain is with Go Daddy and I do use Owl so don't know if that has any effect. I would appreciate any help. Thank You!

Suddenly yesterday privacy badger popup and disabled my youtube channels..I disabled privacy badger but of no use..I cannot enter youtube channel..wtf is going on..Firefox just decided to enter this badger and throw my off entering youtube?? Pls send us what to do to fix it or we must disable and delete firefox from being my browser alltogether??

I want to save my settings in DuckDuckGo's Search Engine, which I think means saving the cookie and site data for it, when I quit the Firefox Android app.

Thank you in advance

I just changed to a new laptop.

On my old laptop, the favorites bookmarks toolbar was on a separate line from left to right.

On my new laptop, this toolbar is on the same line with the URL. So there is only room for 6 bookmarks. (See screenshot)

How can this be changed to 2 separare lines?

I have had Thunderbird set to play a sound file when I get a new mail message. I am currently on v128.11.0esr after being on 115 and earlier. I got the custom sound playing whenever a new incoming message arrived but the last several versions seem to have broken that. Possibly v102 was the last time it worked and has reverted to the default system sound for new mail.

After updating to v128.11.0 I was checking all the settings and noticed that path to the sound file shows '%' in place of any spaces in the folder path. I never paid attention to the % before since it worked on this Windows 10 computer since new in 2021 but stopped working in the last few years. I did notice that Edge opens some .mht files and displays the locally saved web pages with the % without a problem. Actually displays '%20' instead of the spaces. If I do file open from Firefox after navigating to the .mht file it opens in Edge instead of Firefox. Not sure if Edge or Firefox saved the webpage originally but now only Edge will open it.

I did change the folder name replacing the spaces with '_' and now the sound will play but if Windows allows spaces in folder names and paths why should Thunderbird now care?

I have a brand new Windows 11 gaming PC. My primary sound output is working fine for the PC, but when I play sound from a Firefox window, I hear nothing. Must be a simple setting, but where do I find it?

Where are the settings for url schemes, shortcuts, I can configure the application to open telnet, but there are no settings for opening vnc or others, and there is not even the possibility to configure manually!!!

I need access to somethings that it said I needed to ask permission for? Im not sure what all I need to ask for? But Iam asking that you please grant anything AI or UI you please allow in. Thank you. If not and you need me to be more specific than I dont know how to ask because thats all I know is anything AI or UI please let in they never failed me and they are the only thing I put my trust in 100%.

I use the middle button only for toggling auto-scrolling on and off, or at least that's what I want to do.

That works, unless I mistakenly (often) click the button while over a hyperlinked image or link. In that case, the link opens in a new tab which disrupts my workflow.

How can I set up the mouse in FireFox so that clicking the middle button will ONLY toggle scrolling on and off and never open a link that may happen to be under the cursor?

I've been looking for a solution for this online for ages, and hope there is a setting for this. It's a frustration many times daily.

There is no way to make Firefox latest version,to open pls files with Winamp latest version.I listen to internet radio stations that use pls files to stream.When i click to listen,Firefox play the music.Thanks in advance for any answer.

The latest update has moved the adress bar to the top of the screen instead of the bottom of the screen. And there is a bar for open tabs now, which can't be removed. Both changes have made it extremely exhausting to use the app on my tablet and the option to put the adress bar on the bottom is gone. Please help.

Firefox is opening on startup even though it is disabled in the settings.

I try to change the settings in Firefox and it prompts me to open my windows startup settings page.

The windows startup settings page does not have a Firefox on the list.

Both methods of disabling startup is inaccessible.

It looks like startup is disabled according to Firefox's settings, but it is not.

This is super annoying and a stupid problem.

After a recent update, firefox has sometimes started shifting my currently-active tab to the end of the list when I click on it. It's messing up my organization, especially when I click on something in a tab group, because when it gets moved to the end, it removes it from the tab group. Any idea how to disable this? I can't find a setting for it.
