Firefox Support Forum

I didn't know if this needed to be in Privacy and Security Settings or Cookies, so please feel free to move this to wherever it fits best. Here is my problem. I have saved logins on a lot of sites that all work perfectly. There are several websites that I have multiple accounts that all have their login credentials saved. My problem is that there is one specific website that until recently was operating just fine, but in the last week has started a nuisance issue. When I log into the website I select the login profile I need and everything starts off just fine. About 5 minutes later, whatever I am working on gets hijacked by a dropdown appearing in the upper corner of the screen that lists the six logins that I have for that website. If I continue to try typing, nothing happens (as in, the dropdown list stays there and whatever form I was typing on no longer has any data being entered). If I press ESC, the dropdown list goes away but it also closes down the form I was using. If I use the mouse and click anywhere on the screen, then the dropdown list goes away and I can continue using the form I have open. About 5 minutes later, or if I open up a new form, the dropdown list comes back and I have to do this all over again. I have talked to IT of the website and they stated that they have never seen this issue before. Other users that also use Firefox have never mentioned this to them before. Is there a setting that I need to change? Do I need to clear the cookies for this website? Do I need to just delete all of the saved login information and then re-save it? Thank you for your help.

Hi,

I have come across an issue where the Enhanced Tracking Protection (ETP) feature has stopped working on every single website I visit.

Every website I visit, the ETP icon is greyed out and not detecting any trackers.

For instance, when visiting the independent website, the ETP icon usually glows blue to indicate there are trackers. However, now, it is just greyed out, which is incorrect.

So far, I have done the following troubleshooting steps to fix the issue, but I have had no success:

• Uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox
• Signed out and signed back in
• Disabled and removed all extensions
• Cleared cookies, cache, history, site settings, etc.
• Opened Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode (with extensions disabled)
• Deleted my profile/files and created a new one

I have also checked this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1327504

Can someone please help me with this, as I have no idea what else to do to fix this issue?

I started Firefox from scratch with a new profile, and the ETP worked for a short period, but when I closed and restarted Firefox, it just stopped working on every single site - this keeps persisting.

Any help would be appreciated!

New Laptop, new Windows 11 - and running permanently into the issue of having to sign into windows security, when trying to open Firefox. If I click it away - it provides me with the firefox browser but its original set up. To get to "my firefox browser" set up I have to log in. I cannot find anywhere in the Microsoft settings the possibilty to remove Firefox from this requirement. I have tried to unstall and reinstall Firefox, also reset Windows security (which is a joke - as nothing is reset). Can you tell me how to get ridd of this - so that I simply can open the Firefox browser without having to fall each time over Windows Hello. (I have tried to unsign from Hello and use on the classical password sign in - no hope - still asking then for the MS password). Firefox is in some super secure vault - and I would like to get it out of there.

While reconnecting one of my computers to my Firefox account I saw at the top of the Settings Page: "Your settings are being managed by your organization". Problem is that I don't belong to any organizations or enterprises having anything to do with my online life. I have been hacked in the past and am paranoid when I see something that doesn't make sense. When I click on the link (trusting that it is indeed from you), it takes me to your Enterprise Policy page showing the following:

Active Policy Name Policy Value

DNSOverHTTPS Enabled false Locked true

I always use secure DNS (DOH or DOT) on everything - network adapters, routers (except the ISP one whose default I can't figure out to circumvent) etc. but on the browser setting pages I am only given the option of having it off: the default, increased, and max protection options are greyed out and cannot be chosen. I guess that explains the policy values but who locked it? My only guess is that is use a Surfshark VPN and realize that in so doing I am using Surfshark's DNS servers but I believe I had this problem before using the VPN. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx.

I use FF 116 on windows 11. For months, I have had problems logging in to web sites. At first I thought the problem was with the web site, but I have come to the conclusion it is an FF problem. GlobeandMail.com, gem.cbc.ca and rbc.com for example ask for me to log in. I go through the steps giving my password and login name and the web site seems to accept these without complaint but it continues to want me to log in. I end up having to use Edge which works fine. Is there a solution?

When on a site and a popup ask for an email to continue the auto fill opens up and my email is shown...except one of the emails is erroneous and I want it removed, please tell me how. I cannot seem to find any information on doing it or the info does not work. Thanks

New York times articles briefly load and then disappear on one iMac. I think it is associated with the fact that the New York Times ads are missing or haven't loaded on that iMac. On our other iMac, New York Times articles load fine and the ads are present. I've looked in the Firefox settings on both and can't find any significant differences differences that would create this problem.

Hello - My email, stevehawksley@charter.net was stolen and whatever I do to make any changes sends an email to this address which I can no longer access, but alerts the criminal about my attempts to make any changes. Can you please delete this account or change the email address to steve1hawksley@gmail.com? Thank you, Steve Hawksley

PS... PLEASE do not email my old email address of stevehawksley@charter.net

Was trying to log onto a website earlier and was greeted with an email in my autofill that I don't recognize at all. It seems to only be linked to that one website but still has me worried, the email was something like (username)@weizixu.com. Any reason to be concerned at all? Just wondering if my security may be compromised and it has me a bit anxious. How does something like this happen?

Hi.

I live in China and use a VPN to access things like Facebook, Google and YouTube.

I now try to access it with Firefox with a proxy set up and with the VPN also and it doesn't work. Gives me a secure connection failure notice.

Please help if possible. I need to access Facebook for advertising and need to use these proxies.

Kind Regards

My phone number needs to be updated in Firefox. Is this something that I can do myself or do I need Firefox support for this? Whenever Firefox issues a text code, it's using the person's current phone number to provide that text code. My phone number has changed so it needs to be updated in Firefox.
