Firefox Community Forum

I have noticed that Firefox has been getting too many updates recently...even as much as 2 updates this week alone. Frankly i'm sick of getting the green icons and pop-ups in the upper right corner. Is there a way in about:blank codes to turn off these stealth downloading behaviour and prompt pop-ups to restart the browser and let me just manually do it in settings when i want to but without notifications ?

Hallo zusammen, ich benötige dringend Unterstützung bezüglich des Standardprofils in Firefox. Bei einigen Mitarbeitern wird jeden Tag nach dem Neustart das Neuanlegen des Profils verlangt. Ich habe die alten Profile über about:profiles gelöscht und neue angelegt. Firefox habe ich auch deinstalliert und neu installiert, aber das brachte keine Lösung. Am nächsten Tag ist das Profil wieder defekt und es erscheint folgende Nachricht:

You've launched an older version of Firefox

Using an older version of Firefox can corrupt bookmarks and browsing history already saved to an existing Firefox profile. To protect your information, create a new profile for this installation of Firefox.

Exit Create New Profile

Wir benutzen die aktuellste Firefox-Version 113 und setzen keine Roaming-Profile ein. Es handelt sich um eine Domänenumgebung, in der mit GPOs gearbeitet wird, jedoch ohne spezifische Einstellungen für Firefox. Hat jemand mehr Erfahrung und weiß, woran es liegen könnte? Vielen Dank an alle!

I getting messages about version update nearly everyday. That is so annoying. Could you please add an option in settings that notifications could be possible switch off ? I am very happy with current version and don't want nothing to update

Please create a new version of the browser app that supports the ability to use FileSystemAPI on directories, this is essential for working with a BeatBuddy project and SD cards that are saved on my computer using the online editor.

I have notice for some time the Firefox start have updates almost daily it is not too bad whats that bug me is the matter the updates only start show up the information the availability after you log in any account or web site , never in your Firefox Home. you can stay 1 hour with Firefox open with home screen and no alert of updated show 10 second after you login in on email account or enter in any web site the pop up the availability updated what start became annoying .

Thank you .

Dear and respected Firefox Dev Crew,

I you can say love Mozilla Firefox and have been using it for a quite long time now ,but the issue i have with her it is a pure fact that every new version that gets pushed out is worse that previous one by many things like this 138.0.4 that after installing better say updating to it was has it done it has removed all my addressees from URL address bar ,furthermore ,the ones i do not want in previous versions i was like all of us able to delete simply and effectively by pressing shift+ delete which has not been so to say debunked or non working for quite a long time and only way to delete unwanted address from URL bar is to go to History and than find that site and push forget about this site which is annoying because like previous shift + delete which just did it's job of deleting the desired address ,method of deleting unwanted addresses from the URL bar is annoying,frustrating and a glitch in code i guess because without any reason what so ever do you want it or not the deleted address space will be populated by another even more annoying and non needed site and like that in circle ,i just want my URL ADDRESS BAR to be populated with shortcuts to the site which i want and need and that is all nothing more not Firefox to be populating my address bar with everything it get his hands on which frustrates to the point of madness cause in setting Firefox has been customized to populate address bar just with the shortcuts ,but i want them to be shortcuts i want ,i will need, i will use, and i will utilize not populated by some site i visited once 1000 years ago ! Thank you very much on your guidance and listening to problems each new version brings and if someone has a suggestion on how can i stop that and get out of Firefox what i want and need it for thank you i'll will be more than grateful on your support! All The best ! And o yea for the end what is the exact number Firefox URL address bar can hold ? With respect

What does this mean? being updated by another instance

Is this why my FF is running godawful slow today?

Hello.

The problem i am having with several latest versions of firefox just on my desktop version is that it always no matter which search engine i am using it forces the websites to switch to dark mode. i have checked the settings several times and in General , Language and appearance , i have put it in light mode and it didn't help, i have put it in automatic mode and even though my system is in light mode and it's morning it didn't help either i have uninstalled and reinstalled mozilla over and over again and it didn't help either.

Moderator's note: Formatting update

Hi Forum! My Firefox is constantly (weekly) asking to update, even though we're on the latest version (right now we're on 138.0.1 (64-bit) I've reinstalled Firefox a couple times but the issue still persists. I'm not sure what my next steps would be.

Thank you all in advance, I appreciate your knowledge and time!
