Firefox Community Forum

On Chrome, if you have multiple profiles open on a Windows 11 PC, they each show up on the taskbar as separate things with the Chrome logo. Meanwhile, with Firefox, separate profiles open windows on the same taskbar icon and simply switch the profile icon. The picture gives an example of what I mean. I've censored some stuff on it, but know that the stuff in white is in one profile while the other has the stuff in black. The gray is unrelated stuff. Claude says Chrome does this by giving each profile a separate AppUserModelID, whatever that is. Is it possible to do the same in Firefox?

Hello,

I like how easily I can access bookmarks, tabs from other devices, and the chatbot from the "Tools" bar on the sidebar, but it becomes inaccessible after enabling "Expand sidebar on hover".

See images attached showing before and after enabling "on hover".

Am I missing something? Is there a workaround?

Thank you.

I'm generally just wondering if it's possible to remove the profile icons present in the top right corner of the Firefox app, and how to go about doing it if possible. Thank you very much!

As I said I opened my browser and ff said they were going to have a new bookmark system did I want to try it...I clicked yes and now everything has changed my tabs are now on the side rather than on the top...my bookmarks are now longer readily accessible. I'd like to get back to where I was...or at least find a tutorial to show me how to navigate the new configuration... Help

Hello, I somehow have gotten a slimmer sidebar that is attached to my bookmarks sidebar on the left. I can't get it to disappear without losing my bookmarks at the same time. When I re-open bookmarks it has this sidebar again on the side. Is it possible to get just this slim bar to go away? Thank you

I'm on Debian 13 stable with firefox nightly (tarball) downloaded from the firefox website with firefox running on wayland. I don't recall the exact time / build that this issue happened, but it has been persistent for over a week or two already.

The issue I am seeing is where secondary menus or popups do not scale properly in firefox. This includes Popups for extensions, right click menus, or even link previews (long click left mouse btn).

<See screenshots>

Things I tried with no luck:

• Restarting my computer
• Restarting firefox / Updating firefox from the firefox website (https://www.firefox.com/en-US/channel/desktop/)
• Changing my display scale (100%) to (90%)
• Changing firefox display scale from (130%) to (100%)
• Refreshing firefox through the settings (aka clearing extensions and all the other stuff)
• Switching to X11 and back to Wayland... X11 worked fine, but back to Wayland just got things borked again
• Updating all system packages on Debian (nothing much except for security updates on debian stable)

Now the questions I have:

1. Is there a way to fix this issue? 2. Where could I file a bug for this issue? 3. Are there other people with this same issue?

Since a recent update, the shortcuts on my home page have moved up higher on the home page.

Previously, they were more in the middle of the page.

Is there any way to move them back down to the middle of the page? It just looks off to me. :)

So, I recently updated my copy of Mozilla Firefox, and I noticed something strange. The button for the built-in VPN is disproportionately large to other buttons and clickable elements. I don't see it in the release notes, so I doubt this is an intentional design choice by the UX team, at least I hope it isn't. Any help will be greatly appreciated, as it is really distracting.

If it helps, I'm using Mozilla Firefox 151.0.2 running under GNU/Linux Debian 13 Trixie as a Flatpak.

After the latest install of 151.0.2 (aarch64), the VPN logo is massive! Is this just a glitch from the latest update?

I've attached a photo for clarity.

Best,

Ed

The firefox screen has shifted so that only two of my four lines of shortcuts appear on the screen. There is a larger than previous space between the ribbons at the top and the search bar that has appeared since I downloaded the newest firefox version. Before that, everything fit well on the screen.

Latest Firefox update made the widget space above my shortcuts way to large. The large space pushed my shortcuts off the bottom of the screen. I turned OFF the weather widget but the space remained the same. Before the update the weather widget was smaller, now it is big with a lot of empty space inside. I tried the config but it is already set to small. Is there anyway to make the area across the top of the new tab page smaller and even make the weather widget smaller than the "small" config? The widget has one line of text and the sun which takes up about 1/4 of the bottom widget and 3/4 of the top is blank wasted space. Firefox 151.0.1 (64-bit)

My home page moved down from its previous position in the middle of the screen. I have to scroll down to bring it up. I have gone through all settings [including Zoom; remove "Use recommended performance settings" and " Use hardware acceleration when available" and nothing changes it back. No other application on my computer is misaligned. I have no idea why it moved or how to get it back to normal.
