When using the new version of Firefox, I found that bookmarks only appeared in new tabs. Once I opened other web pages, there were no bookmarks above the screen, which made me feel inconvenient. Previously, the new tabs could also be customized, but now they can only be blank or the default pages of Firefox. So, can the new version of Firefox solve these problems? Or which of the older versions of Firefox can still meet my requirements?

Hello,

I can't figure out how to add a custom search shortcut, is this no longer possible in Firefox (without installing addons/extensions)?

I recall 'custom search' being more or less ubiquitous, and feel like there was an "Add" button below the Search Shortcuts UI not that long ago.

Bookmarks with keywords would be a reasonable workaround if it weren't for having to prefix the keyword to the search terms.

Thank you, Kyle

Hi! i was wondering why my firefox reseted after reboot. i have all the important tabs and bookmarks for my university work, chores and articles, platforms that are mandetory on my uni. also, i was tinkering with partitions before the reboot because my steam didnt want to run any games. i was guided by the chat gpt with terminal coding to do get steam working even tho i didnt solve the problem. is there any way you can help me?

been having issues with files lately. i can dl a file and open the folder. if i try to open the file from the browser or the folder directly, the browser window will freeze. additional browser windows are still functional. how do i fix this? no files will open even in safe mode.

When navigating through video websites, the browser often becomes unresponsive and refreshes the interface. When accessing other websites, the browser tabs frequently experience crashes.

Details regarding the operating system, laptop model, and browser version are provided below, and the screenshot of unresponsive website has been attached with this, um email or message.

Trying to download updates from Intel.com and as soon as I click the download button, Firefox just locks up and won't allow me to do anything. I have to basically shut down firfox through task manager to get the browser to work again. I have 139.04 which is the latest update for Firefox

A message to Mozilla if this is a bug how about fixing the problems that some people are having instead of consintration on implementing AI into Firefox as I want a browser that doesn't and isn't link to AI as many other people do as well as some if not most of us are sick to ther back teeth with everything having AI installed with in the programs.

when i MUTE some tabs (using the native FF tab mute icon on the tab) sound is muted for just that tab. HOWEVER, it also mutes ALL SYSTEM sounds.

This occurs both with my regular profile and using a default profile for my version (which has NO ADDONS).

It seems to depend on the type of delivery of the music. (Or something!)

This occurs for the following URLs:

   https://14223.live.streamtheworld.com/WRTI_CLASSICAL.mp3
   https://areena.yle.fi/podcastit/ohjelmat/57-llL6Y4blL

However, rather interestinly, it DOES NOT OCCUR for the "standard" WRTI radio station:

   https://www.wrti.org/classical-playlist-search

it seems UNREASONABLE THAT A WEB SITE SHOULD BE ABLE TO EXERT ANY CONTROL upon system sounds.   So, I must presume this is a FF bug; however, I have not posted it as such (having no confirmation from others).

Hi Please could someone help me re-order my firefox toolbars. Previously I managed to arrange them in the order I prefer, but an update seems to have destroyed the order again, and I can no longer find the web page which explained how to do it. reading from the top, I would like to see: • Title bar • Menu bar • Navigation toolbar • Bookmarks toolbar • Tabs toolbar • Web content area

Instead I have • Title bar • Menu bar • Tabs toolbar • Navigation toolbar • Bookmarks toolbar (I even seem to have lost this now and don't know how to get it back!) • Web content area Thanks for any help that can be provided. Brox

I am on FF 139.04. I have been there for Months. Suddenly, I see an icon for TAB GROUPS amongst my tabs. I am not able to find how to get rid of the seemingly automatic grouping.

1. How do I get rid of this icon appearing?

2. What does delete tab group do? That is, does it delete the group OR the group and all the tabs in it?

3. Where is documentation for how to use tab groups?

Tried to update Firefox. Got the message: your updates are being managed by your organization. I'm a home user. No organization. What is the problem? Thank you in advance.

Hi. I'm asking this question because I'm not quite sure how to describe this issue through a Google search. Recently, I've noticed that whenever I click and drag anything, an icon will pop up while I'm doing so. Attached is an example, I click-and-dragged on the "Learn More" hyperlink off to the right.

Is there any way to disable the icon that pops up? It bothers me and seems to slow things down, which isn't ideal. I'm not the most well-versed when it comes to Firefox's more advanced settings (the options in about:config and whatnot) so I wouldn't know where to start.

As of yesterday, whenever I have to open my Firefox browser on my laptop I get the "You've launched an older version of Firefox" pop up email. I have to log in and set up all my preferences each time. I have never had to do that before.

How can one search for bookmark-folders? (not a a bookmark contained by a folder) I have my bookmarks sorted in a tree-like structure via bookmark folders. It would be essential to me to be able to search for the folder in a search bar (like in the bookmark sidebar), since I have many folders/sub-folders.

Hi,

Firefox version: 139.0.4 (64-bit) OS: Windows 11

I have been having issues where Firefox tab will just crash out for no reason it appears and it happens at random times and once the tab start to crash, and I restore it, it will crash again and again. The only way tog et out of the loop is to restart Firefox.

I have tried: Refreshing/Reset, Clearing Cache and History removing all themes, disabling extensions, disabling my anti virus. Turning off hardware acceleration didn't make any different.

I currently have 2 extensions enabled: uBlock Origin 1.64.0 and Bitwarden Password Manager 2025.5.0

In the about:Crashes I have reported them all and they seem to have the same type of reasons in the Raw data/Minidump which are: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ

Any help as to what to try next?

My Windows PC laptop has stopped syncing bookmarks from my android phone, even though I set them up to sync with each other. The syncing suggestions under Firefox support for syncing do not match with the options on my laptop or android phone.
