Firefox Community Forum

This is a request to update Firefox to fix a Geckodriver issue. Been using Selenium Basic inside Excel VBA which successfully Opens "firefox" but then fails to Get "https://jackpocket.com/lottery-results/arizona" ending instead with a '21' timeout error in the debugger. I have already carefully checked my Selenium Basic and Geckodriver installation, which are correct. So I think there is a code incompatibility between the two. I am trying to scrape the latest JavaScript rendered Next Jackpot numbers there into open Excel. The website URL is public information. The firefox version in use is 149.0.2 and the geckodriver.exe in use is 0.36.0 on a windows 11 laptop.

Recently, when I bring up a PDF document, there is a promotion for a signature that appears on the right side of the document. When scrolling, that side of the document can't be read, if you want to print, it obscures the printer properties. I have no need of a signature for anything I do with PDF documents, so how do I get rid of the promotion? The promotion reads: "Sign on the dotted line---or anywhere! "Draw, type, or upload your signature, then place it exactly where you want. Save your go-to signature for next time."

I am attempting to locate the "manage containers" option on the container drop down menu but it is not there. I have read several other threads and have tried cntrl+ about:config "which did not have a false option" clicking right, and then maybe left and every which way I could click, but nothing. The drop down menu does not move so as to reposition and possibly find what I can't find. I do have my scaling pretty high, I wonder if that could be the problem. Any help would be appreciated, you know how we like to change these kinds of options.

A power surge took out my computer during a Windows up date, I could not recover anything, so did a fresh install of Windows........now, I can't get Firefox to bring over my bookmarks. I am so upset and lost right now, I'm sure I'm just missing something to do. Please help.

I have tried all suggestions from the "Firefox is already running..." page but could not fix the problem.

I don't know if this is a problem, but I have several profile folders (see image). The top one is empty, but two folders below that one, are 2 GB or more in size.

Should I delete some or any of them?

I am experiencing significant stability issues with Firefox. When I use YouTube, the entire browser frequently hangs (becomes unresponsive) and eventually crashes. This does not happen on all websites, but it is consistent when playing video content on YouTube.

• Symptoms: The browser "stacks" or freezes completely; I cannot click tabs or menus until the browser finally closes/crashes.

• Extensions: I am currently using extensions like SponsorBlock, uBlock origin. I am unsure if this is the cause, but the issue persists during video playback.

• Hardware: I am running this on a laptop with an 16gb 4800mhz RAM, i7 12th Gen processor and an RTX 3070 GPU.

1. Is there a known compatibility issue between current Firefox builds and SponsorBlock or similar video-modifying extensions?

1. Could this be related to hardware acceleration settings with my NVIDIA GPU?

1. What steps should I take to provide crash logs to help identify the root cause?

Went to do something on a website, saw that I had been logged out, went to log in and it didn't auto-fill. Went to check the password but seemingly it isn't saved anymore.

The problem lies in the fact that I signed up with an email mask, used a random password and I can't get a recovery email sent to it. So am I perma locked out forever?

I'm just confused on how the saved password can disappear? Any help?

I read magazines using PressReader on Firefox but during this the window keeps getting refreshed. When this happens I end up back at the beginning of the magazine instead of on the page I'm reading. It's becoming almost impossible to read the entire magazine.

What I can't work out is what is doing this? Is there a Firefox setting that I need to change?

There seems to be no settings in PressReader.

I'm running Firefox on Win 11 Pro if that is relevant.

As of recently, I have problems with Firefox that do not happen in other browsers. But Firefox is my favorite, and I'd like to have this solved so I can keep using it.

In Zendesk, there is an option "Print ticket" which should open Print dialog and we then can print whole email to PDF. This worked for years, but as of recently that dialog simply does not show. I tried change Firefox settings for printing, but problem remains. Attached is a screenshot how it looks in chrome, and how it used to work in firefox.

As from yesterday, April 17, Firefox will not load correctly https://m365.cloud.microsoft page. It loads, but no element reacts when clicked. I cleared cache, cookies, removed extensions, refreshed firefox, but to no avail.

Thanks for the help!

Hello All,

I'm using Firefox (149.0.2 snap) with LUbuntu 24.04.4 LTS. Because of a wrong graphic driver, I had to turn off hardware acceleration in FF.

When FF is started the Initial "Firefox - Choose User Profile" is unreadable (see attached : wrong_screen.jpg), but if I continue (click somewhere in the window) , all the opened tabs are readable.

Once in FF, if I want to select another profile from the application menu -> .. -> manage profiles, then the "Choose User Profile" window is fine (see attached : good_screen.jpg).

I tried to start FF with the "-P" option to specify wanted profile but it continues to start with the unreadable "Choose User Profile" window.

Could someone give me a solution, except finding the good hardware driver for my computer?

Thanks Bouilla.

On the new tab page I have set for 4 rows of shortcuts. In the fourth row I have 3 open spaces for tiles/shortcuts. There is no way to add the tiles whereas there was previously a tile that would show that said "+add shortcut". Given I have room in the row to add 3 shortcuts, how do I add tiles to allow for added shortcuts?

The Cache is never cleared after clearing, there are always about 9,3 MB left. According to my settings there should be 0 MB left. (When I check the Task Manager, Firefox ist always opened up to 10 times.) How can I make sure the Cache is completely cleared? I added Screenshots of both. Thnx for helping...

I need help with annoying pop-ups. I followed instructing. It only say allow, not block, when I go to settings, security & privacy, checked block pop-ups and third party redirects.
