Firefox Community Forum

Hello!

 Since some days I have the problem that all files I download from outlook are accompanied by a preceding UTF-8 in the file name. This is not the case for e.g. google chrome. Can I fix this problem by myself, or is it a general problem of firefox 128.9esr (64-bit)?

When accessing Outlook (https://outlook.office.com) using Firefox ESR version 128.9.0 and attempting to download a file attached to an email, the string 'UTF-8' is automatically inserted at the beginning of the file name, which is causing issues. This phenomenon does not occur with other browsers such as Edge or Chrome.

Is there a way to solve this problem?

This issue came up in early April 2025.

Programs other than Firefox (e.g. Edge, Media Player) behave normally: when playing sound, if nothing is plugged into the 3.5 mm jack, the sound comes from the desktop's external speakers; and when an audio device (speakers or headphones) is plugged into the 3.5 mm jack, the sound instead comes from that device.

Where as Firefox will play using the internal speakers as expected, but when a device is plugged into the 3.5 mm jack, no sound signal goes to that device.

It seems then that the hardware is okay, and the problem must lie within Firefox, or within a Windows setting that is very specific to Firefox.

The sudden onset earlier this month may point to either a Firefox update, or (less likely) a Windows update.

Hi,

Are there plans to bring the autofill address feature to UK English on Android?

I have moved over from Chrome but this is a bit of a deal-breaker for me, so hopefully something is in the works.

Thank you!

The Widevine Content Decryption Module failed on both our Windows 7 PCs. Version: 4.10.2891.0 Last updated Apr 2, 2025 when our version of Firefox was updated. The current version is 115.22.0 est (64-bit) (Streaming is OK on my Mac using Safari and Chrome; don't have Firefox installed there)

Over recent months, there have been quite a few reports of this issue on several operating systems. Our viewing of videos only failed us on April 2nd or 3rd, 2025, not previously. This seems to be occurring at various times in various systems. Solutions are not accessible to lay folks, and Google is inaccessible! Can anyone help us? Thanks

I just started having an issue with my browser where every time I tab out of a tab playing media, the pop-out video appears on its own. It's quite annoying. How do I stop this from automatically happening?

The server at 192.168.1.1 is taking too long to respond.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

How do I change the time out to a longer time?

I was not sure which "topic" to select. I use Yahoo mail for email. Up until a month ago or so, I was able to type the first few letters of a person's name and the email address for that person automatically filled in. This no longer works. The only article on Yahoo's "help" that I could find said it was probably a browser issue.

Any ideas on how I can get my cache back? Or at least start over?

Why do I need to enter the PW every time I start Firefox, even when not accessing the information? This is a ridiculous loss of time. You really want user to migrate to more user friendly browsers?

I hope no one is going to come into my accessibility anymore and I want you to help me to reset this my Mozilla Firefox if I did not set it here you can use your settings for me because some people accessibility to control my device

Sometimes when watching a video on hulu (and maybe other similar sites) after a commercial the screen is all messed up and I have to stop the video and reload to get a picture. The sound is fine but the picture is messed up. This only happens with firefox. Any ideas on how to fix this?
