Firefox Community Forum

I have a rather strange problem and I'm not sure this is the right topic. I generally use my computer on and off all day and I never lock it until the evening when I turn it off. I went out for several hours today and when I came back there was a new version of Firefox installed. When I opened Firefox I realized it was a new version because it would not let me logon until I had completed a profile. My old version never did this. In addition all of my saved passwords had disappeared as well as my bookmarks. I'm using a Dell laptop running Win 11, about 2 years old. I don't understand how this could happen. There was no one here while I was out. I looked to see if there was a saved profile but only the one in use showed up. The current version appears to be 145.0.1. One thing that might have something to do with it. I might have been asked yesterday if I wanted to synch firefox on my computers but I'm not sure how I answered this (I'm almost 90 and my memory is a bit imperfect).

I do have Firefox on a second desktop which is running Win 10. Is it possible to use that profile. That computer has not been turned on since this happebd and is currently asleep. Any help or suggestions will really be appreciated!

Hi team, I am getting below message when trying to download something from browser.

Unfortunately the latest release has broken the ability to support the NordPass extension. I also have WaterFox as a backup based on historical usage challenges, and sure enough it supports NordPass with no issues.

The issue is when a user completes the Account login to Nord itself, then enters their master password for NordPass via the browser. It then gets lost, presenting the animated circle as if it is attempting to process the next step, and it fails to exit that state.

I only get that damn "JSON, Raw Headers, Data" screen when I try to go to gamestop's website. HOW do I fix this? This is only the latest in a long string of stuff your browser does badly, and if not for the fact you are the only browser Youtube cannot block ad blockers on, I would have tossed your browser a long time ago.

bold text I have been given a new firefox and this is so far out of what i need that i am about ready to call it quits -- where is my toolbar? All i have is some bookmark nonsense that has nothing to do with me or what i search for --

I have performed every suggested check that comes up when I put this question to the big wide web,but cannot find the solution. Castanet.net will load, but not open any secondary sites on windows 11,but it will on Chrome on my PC. My laptop with windows 10 has no issue. This has been going on for months and I am ready to just "fire" firefox for good.

After trying suggested "fixes" still unable to get bookmarks restored on my Firefox account, and can't add any new ones either. Should I reinstall Firefox?

popped up after an update, not only is it slightly distracting but also annoying as now when i try to pick up or select a tab by putting my mouse at the top of the screen it does nothing, as i select the useless black bar instead

Shadowplay is essentially constantly recording my screen and is automatically turned off when DRM content, in my case Netflix is opened through Firefox. Closing Netflix, however still doesn't let me turn it on and will only work if I have closed and reopened Firefox.

Hello.

English is not my native language, so I watch all TV series and cartoons in English with subtitles in my native language. Everything was fine until, at some point, one of the most accessible players that provided subtitles stopped displaying them. I thought that the player had broken or that some technical work was being done. But after a week, nothing had changed.

Then I downloaded Chrome, and the subtitles display perfectly in it.

It is in Firefox, specifically this player, that subtitles are not displayed. Other players display subtitles, but they are either unstable or constantly crash. Therefore, they are inconvenient to use and spoil my user experience.

In general, if you have any tips, I would be grateful.

Recently I have been issues with switching between windows of Firefox. No matter how many times I try to Alt-Tab or click on another window it momentarily goes to that window before switching back immediately. The only work around I found is to click a window of some other software and then click the window I want to work on in Firefox. Doing this is not making it switch back to the older window of Firefox again. Please help me in fixing this issue. It's making it nearly impossible to work on Firefox due to this.

if the browser ever crashes it likes to forget all my login cache forcing me to login over and over again. it also forgets my last session even though i have load my last session of tabs on startup. this POS keep loading no tabs from the last session.

I reinstall my pc and wanted to resync firefox, but wrote password wrong few times and went with suggestion to reset it through the mail, but my histroy and bookmarks not there? Is there possiblity to recover if I know my old password???

Yesterday, Firefox upgraded to version 145.0 on my laptop. Since then I have been unable to access the internet using WiFi. Everything worked fine with the former version of Firefox 144.? My desk top uses an Ethernet connection to the internet, and the latest version of Firefox is working fine.

Hi,

I'm looking to clear my history (as one does) but upon clearing my history as shown in the picture, I still get search recommendations in the search bar.

Do I need to tick more boxes ? I would still like to keep my stored credentials and forms and to ultimately keep search history results (just clear the ones i have right now), is there anyway of doing this ?
