I have been trying to get Firefox to clean up everything when I close it down,

It is so hard as if purposely a 1000 development team have worked on making it impossible.

When I close it down, it must be completely sanitised, no previous site visits, login names, passwords, suggestions - nothing.

And I should be able to achieve that with one button press, not have to go through a thousand individual settings.

I have now spent an hour checking and unchecking buttons, it is crazy. For example I go to the passwords, I have to delete each and every one individually. Maybe there is another screen somewhere, but when I want to interact with "Passwords" I naturally go to "Passwords".

And still, when I go to gmail, it autofills the gmail account! Where did that come from? I have spent an hour trying to make sure it deletes everything when it closes down.

And it should leave no trace on the PC. no temp files, nothing.

Zachowaj ostrożność. Coś tu nie gra.

Firefox wykrył potencjalnie poważny problem bezpieczeństwa na witrynie ohttp-gateway-merino.services.mozilla.com. Ktoś podszywający się pod nią może próbować ukraść dane karty płatniczej, hasła, adresy e-mail lub coś innego.

Witryna „ohttp-gateway-merino.services.mozilla.com” określa poprzez HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security), że Firefox ma się z nią łączyć jedynie w sposób zabezpieczony. Dodanie wyjątku w celu odwiedzenia tej witryny jest niemożliwe.

'bold text YouTube is "acting insane, sound plays/picture is frozen. Can't pause it. Also can't start it! Ads play on without option to skip. I got some notice that YT was changing something, I think it is broken. I managed to get a video to play on MS Edge, but I normally do not use that. I cleared cache and ALL of that, rebooted computer, etc. connection is good. Searches are fine on firefox, Other sites are fine on firefox. . IT IS YOUTUBE! It is SO bad that now with my mouse, the arrow and hand are NOT showing up on the actual screen where video plays. Right now on here it is fine. but on youtube? no.

Hello,

At the last FF update, I discovered that I had VPN on my top status bar but what does it do?

I have v. 150.0.1 (64 bit). Also Windows 11. I live in France and the only reason to use a VPN is to watch a UK soap which I cannot watch by any other means unless it's live on the TV. I know how to turn it on (obvious), so when I use the BBC website, this is what I do. But it makes not the slightest bit of difference as I am still recognised as being outside the UK.

Am I not doing something please?

I am returning to Firefox after a long time. I've added the bonjour start page which is working fine with one exception. I am unsure if this problem is associated with the extension or with the Firefox browser, bonjour is working fine but I get a long message in the search bar telling me "bonjour Start page" (See included image). I'm trying to customise the toolbar does not allow me to remove anything relevant to that button or whatever it is. I can drag it off the toolbar but it just goes straight back on the toolbar by itself. The long and short of it is that it's taking up quite a large chunk of the toolbar and I don't want that I know that I'm using Bonjour I don't need to be told constantly.

Any help would be appreciated Thank you

The site chaturbate.com is not working in Private Browsing. It does work in Firefox.com

When on the home screen and with setting "3 rows" for shortcuts, the third row has two missing slots and I cannot add extra ones to fill in the gap. I don't want to make it "4 rows" as it will show an "add shortcuts" button which I feel is unnecessary if I plan to leave the 4th row empty. It is also happening on LibreWolf

Hello :)

I have 2 problems after changing my computer

1) After upgrading my graphics card to a newer 5070 RTX series model, I'm seeing artifacts at low resolutions (~720p). I reinstalled the drivers using DDU, but that didn't help. I only have the problem with Firefox - I tried another browser, and it doesn't have the same issue. (screen image)

2) This problem is more complicated. When watching videos on YouTube, Netflix, or other sites, I experience slight image stuttering, as if Firefox is chopping frames (the sound continues), but a small amount of image stuttering appears.

I reinstalled the system and replaced the motherboard with a Z790 MSI.

When I play the video locally on my computer, there's no problem. I play it in Chrome or Edge, but I can't see it.

In Firefox, the video stutters slightly, about 0.5/1 second. YouTube stats show that I'm dropping frames at random times; sometimes it's 2 frames per 20,000, and sometimes it's 150 frames per 7,500.

I reinstalled the system twice, the drivers are up to date, and the software is also up to date. And I still get the error. I don't know how to fix it.

PLZ NEED HELP ME :))

Using Firefox, when I try to sign into Walmart.com I get a 'we are having technical issues, please try later' message. I tried using the Microsoft Edge browser and I logged in just fine. This issue just started. I cleared the cookies and cache data thinking this might help, but it did not.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Contributor note: The OP has also stated that the Private Browsing Mode resolves the issue. See /questions/1579683.

I tried using the private window option on Firefox to log into Walmart.com, and I was able to log in. This is a work around, but would still like to know what's causing this issue.

Hi, since some weeks I'm unable to access some websites with Firefox, cause I get 403 errors, for instance https://www.bexley.fr/. It works well with Chrome on the same computer+same OS, or with a newer version of Firefox on W10 (same computer, dual boot), but with my W7 and Firefox 115.35.1esr I can't access them because of that error. Any idea how I could fix that ? All my computers on W7 and the same version of Firefox are concerned. Thank you.

Почему я не могу написать отзыв на дополнение на addons.mozilla.org, хотя я авторизован, скачал дополнение и использую его? "звезды" для оценки не кликабельны, формы для текста нет вообще. Я могу только читать чужие отзывы, но не писать сам. Блокировщики рекламы и различные антитрекеры выключены.

Hi, I just upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 home. One of the things that has changed is that my downloads don't stay. After closing Firefox the download is there but if you click on it it says "File missing or moved".

Bonjour, Depuis plusieurs jours, je ne peu plus jouer a mon jeu favori "funbridge". Le jeu (argine) ne répond pas a ma relance et je suis obligé de relancer le jeu pour obtenir une réponse. Cela fonctionne sous chrome. merci de m'aider
