Firefox Community Forum

Hi there I have the problem that my firefox can save any file or download on my other drives since they arent event show as an option. I did a little research and read that by default in linux for security reason was unable to, but asking in the official forum of my distro (cachyos), they can save thing in other drives with no problems.

So i wanted to know why i dont?, my firefox installation is native at installing the dristro and having all perimission but it cant see my drives except the one is installed to (and where my OS is).

The only thing different i actually do is the folder where my current user info is saved, i moved the files from my user but with the files i had from my old windows session to impor my saved sites, favorites, etc.

Can you help me to be able to save files or images on my other drives?, thank you for time.

bold text I have Windows 7 Pro, PC...Love it!....and Firefox Browser...have up dated also... Chase Visa will NOT recognize my Friefox Browser and let ME LOG IN(Nothing below an 8.1 system)

 HELP!

There's already a decent help article about how to block videos from autoplaying:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/block-autoplay

The problem is, it works haphazardly. Even if my default for all web sites is "Block Audio and Video", on some web sites (not all) embedded videos still start playing as soon as they scroll into viewport.

Some have adviced to delve into about:config and set media.autoplay.blocking_policy to 2 (default is 0) and, based on quick testing, that actually seems to help but why exactly does it help? If privacy settings already have a setting to block autoplay, why does that particular configuration change make it work as it is supposed to work?

Running Floorp 12.5.0 (Firefox offshoot) on Win11, if that helps.

I've been trying to open Google Docs on Firefox Desktop for a few hours and none of my troubleshooting has worked thus far. I've cleared my browser history and cache, have updated Firefox, disabled all browser extensions one by one, updated my proxy settings, changed my TLS preferences, and even added Google Docs to my trusted sites list on my computer itself; none of this has worked. I've been able to open Google Docs on Google Chrome, so I know that it isn't a problem on Google's end. If there are any other possible solutions, any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am trying to pull up the list of the subscriptions and auto payments I have on Paypal. All the other pages on the site display correctly. Microsoft Edge displays the page correctly.

I have attached two screenshots, the first is how Firefox shows it. the second is the correct display using Microsoft Edge.

Note the correct page shows a lot of offers on the right side with the list of payments icons on the left in proper form. The incorrect screenshot does not show the right side offer material at all . The layout of the text and icons are nothing like they should be.

Changing the magnification does not help as my other Paypal pages are affected and the result is just a smaller version of the incorrect page with the icons still offset and is not usable for it's intended purpose.. Also the text is to small to read.

When I first try to open the page it flashes momentarily on the correct view, then immediately goes to the bad view. Is it possible there is some "locking" factor missing when I get the flash display?

This started within the last 6 months. I suspect something about the page is not on the same criteria as Firefox. If no one else has seen this then I must have something inconsistent with that page.

Site: https://www.thegamer.com Firefox refuses to load the site, it does not even show the certificate when clicking on the lock. Using the certificate manager, add exception does not work too, it just refuses to store the certificate. But at least THERE I can VIEW the certificate, which proves it is valid and FIREFOX is at fault:

https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=www.thegamer.com&latest shows "IO exception" when trying to check the CRL, but gives an A+. Yet Firefox does not even give me the "Continue anyway" possibility. This it tiering, I hate using google chrome based browsers, but of course, it works there. Server 2025, only MS-defender at its default settings.

Hello,

In the latest update I got it made everything into rounded corners. The Tabs and Settings windows as an example. How do I undo that?

I checked thoroughly in the appearance settings and dont see a way to do that. I specifically switched my entire world over to Firefox to get out of the rounded corner UI world only in time for this switch to happen. How do i undo it?

What version of Firefox actually allows you to add extensions? I'm running the most current version of Tumbleweed that ships with 144.0. Attempts to add extensions just sit there doing nothing until I close the tab. This sort of worked some time ago (I forget the version) but the inability of Firefox to allow add-ons/extensions is getting to be a joke. There are other browsers out there, ya know.

I have been using Firefox for a long time without any problem. An update was loaded onto my laptop and now when I try to sign on through my iPhone when I go to menu, there is no selection to sign in. And as a result, I am pretty much dead in the water.

This morning when I started up Firefox it had a pop-up about the new profiles feature, asking to create a new profile. Just out of curiosity I clicked the create profile button to see what the interface would look like. Since I didn't actually want to create the profile I hit the delete button, but nothing happened. So I closed the window. I then tried delete the new profile (then called "Profile 1") by hitting the trash can from the choose profiles screen. Still nothing happens. At this point my original profile window is still open, but I close everything to restart Firefox in hopes that it will allow me to delete this profile I never wanted to begin with.

The Choose profile window comes up, I select original profile and nothing happens. I can open the new "Profile 1", which I have since labelled "Bad Profile".

D:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles doesn't appear to have my original profile anywhere.

I'm deeply concerned this beta feature I never asked for has deleted my original profile when it should have deleted the new profile.

Hello,

I am having an issue with my Bluetooth headphones (Sennheiser HD 450BT) in Firefox on Windows 11.

The headphones are properly connected to Windows and work correctly with other browsers (Edge, Chrome).

Windows shows the headphones as the default output device (stereo), and test sounds play through them.

However, in Firefox, the audio does not go through the headphones. Instead, it plays very loudly through the laptop speakers.

The problem started today; there were no issues for about a year.

I have tried reconnecting/reinstalling the headphones, but it did not help. Drivers are also up to date.

Could you please advise how to make Firefox correctly use my Bluetooth headphones as the audio output device?

Thank you for your assistance.
