Firefox Community Forum

I had 1600 tabs open (foolish, I know, but 16GB RAM and have had no problem with it in the past) when the app suddenly stopped responding.

Restarted the app, all tabs were gone, replaced by my starting page. Very strange, as I have the setting to re-open previous tabs per default. Attempted to open via "recently closed windows", saw all of the tabs, but the content never loaded in - I was able to resize the window, but could not add new tabs or close existing ones with either mouse input or keyboard shortcuts.

The app became unresponsive again. Restarted the app, did the same thing, had the same issue. This time, it caused the entire computer to become unresponsive. When I started the computer again, opened FF, it was on the start page, and the option of "recently closed windows" was suddenly greyed out.

Following the online guides, it takes me to C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles but there are very few json files in there and only from a few minutes ago. There is nothing in there from before the crashes

There are no Windows previous versions to restore from

1. Is there any way to recover the tabs that I have missed? 2. Why is information about tabs not stored in a non-replacing way locally? 3. Why is information about tabs not stored on the account in a better way? I am far from the only person who uses tabs as a form of storage, even if it is not optimal

Hi!

I think I accidentally signed in to firefox sync with this account so it synced all my passwords and stuff. But I cant login any longer because I it wants to send confimation code to my email. Signin in to this forum works fine for some reason but not to accounts.firefox.com anymore. The problem is that I used 10 minute e-mail service to create this account so there is no way to access that confirmation code. So anyways I want to have my synced data deteted because I don't trust Mozilla with my private data. What are my options?

So, can somebody please explain to me why Firefox VPN is now unsupported in so many countries where people can only exercise their freedom of information by using a VPN?

Do local laws and restrictions apply to the people of these countries because of their governments' actions, while those same governments don't even need a VPN to access such information? Instead, they censor it to prevent their citizens from accessing it.

You claim to be sanctioning the "governments", but in reality, you are only sanctioning the "people" — the very people who are actually fighting against their governments' practices.

Hello, since the recent update, firefox tabs' font look different. Like blurry, doubled. You see the picture. It was not like that til like some minutes ago before it got updated.

new in 158 states:

"Ad Blocker uses Apple’s WebKit Content Blocker technology and the EasyList filter list to determine what gets blocked. There’s no separate extension to install, and you can turn it on in Settings > Browsing > Ad Blocker. It’s off by default, so you decide whether to use it."

There IS NO SETTINGS > BROWSING tab in settings. Where is this? and why is the doc even wrong?!!!

I'm running 158.0.1 on windows 10 pro.

My Firefox built-in VPN is stuck in an activation loop.

I am using Firefox 159.0.1 on Windows. I click "Get started", sign in successfully to my Mozilla account, and the page confirms that I am connected. However, when I reopen the VPN panel, it still shows "Get started".

I have already signed out and signed back in, restarted Firefox, and confirmed that Enterprise Policies are inactive.

Could you please check whether my Mozilla account is eligible for the built-in VPN and why activation is not being completed?

Thanks a lot.

• • Title: Firefox Built-in VPN suddenly unavailable – Local laws and restrictions error**

Hello,

I have been using Firefox's built-in VPN without any problems until yesterday. Suddenly, it stopped working and now displays this message:

"VPN: Local laws and restrictions limit where you can use this feature."

My system details and troubleshooting results:

- Firefox version: 159.0.1 - Operating system: Windows 10 - Mozilla account: Signed in - Remote improvements: Enabled - Enterprise policies: Inactive - No relevant VPN holdback study found in about:studies.

I am physically located in Tehran, Iran. However, my usual internet connection's public IP was identified as Frankfurt, Germany, by ipwho.is.

I also tested using my mobile phone hotspot, which was identified as Tehran, Iran. The same VPN restriction message appeared with both connections.

The built-in VPN was working until yesterday, so I would like to know whether my IP address or account has been incorrectly classified, or whether access to the service has recently changed.

Could you please investigate this issue and explain why the VPN suddenly became unavailable?

Thank you.

Firefox is screwing my display with a screen logging warning message. Removal instructions are 100% useless.

This is so annoying. I’m sure its simples if you’re a techhie, but for muppets its hopeless, I’m desperate for a solution as i cant use Firefox now

Hello,

I am using Windows 10 (64-bit) and Mozilla Firefox.

Since Microsoft has ended Windows 10 support, I would like to know:

1. Will Firefox continue receiving security updates on Windows 10? 2. Will I continue receiving the latest Firefox versions? 3. Do I need to install Firefox ESR? 4. What do you recommend to keep Firefox secure on Windows 10?

Thank you for your help.

Isn't it ridiculous that you accept and obey of the laws of a terrorist dictator regime such as Islamic regime of Iran!? You restricted me and disabled the Mozilla VPN in Iran by the order from Islamic regime? Absolutely, Shame on You.

Hi Firefox Support Team, I have been using Firefox Sync for almost 5 years without any issues. Every time I reset my PC, I simply log into my Firefox Account, and all my saved passwords, bookmarks, and sync data restore automatically. However, after my latest PC reset, I logged into my usual Firefox account, but none of my saved passwords or bookmarks were restored. The sync seems completely empty. I did not reset or change my account password before or after this process. Could you please check if my account data is still stored on the Sync servers, or help me understand if there was any server-side glitch during the sync fetching process? This account contains critical passwords collected over the last 5 years. Account Email: sakibshovon62@gmail.com
