I quit Firefox and when I restarted it it said it was a new version! It said something about restoring but I assumed it was just restoring my prior pages! DAMN! I can't even find a place to import bookmarks!

I am so angry I could chew nails!

Why does this happen? I was even logged in, and my tab groups are gone. Why??? Do I need to use a different browser? And Firefox has had trouble with some websites where the paying portion is not correct. However, if I go to a different browser (Chrome), the paying portion works correctly. I'm getting kinda tired of these weird things going on. Please don't offer a feature that doesn't work like grouping tabs.

Today: Can't access website. I think it is the ISP or the router. Reset the router. No luck. Tried a different device on the Wifi. Works fine. Tried a different browser. works fine. Shut down Firefox. I had 2 browser instances open with several windows in each. Could not restart firefox, as it did not close correctly. I closed the broken instance(s). opened FF again, only got one set of windows, not both sets. The other instance had a bunch of grouped windows, and the groups seem to be gone. I can recreate most of those, but had some windows with ongoing work and things I wanted to look at and now they are gone.

FF crashed when I tried to get some answer from ediblearrangements.com help.

I keep telling Firefox that I do NOT (that's NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!) want autoplay of either audio or video. Why do certain websites keep autoplaying audio? I DO NOT WANT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please try to comprehend that I do ***NOT*** want to listen to that website's audio!!!

As of 7/10/2025, Xfinity Streaming does not open through Firefox. I much prefer Firefox to any other browser so I am a little mystified as to why all of a sudden Xfinity Streaming does not open. I receive my Comcast email through FireFox but when it comes to streaming content, the Xfinity logo just sits there and does not open.

Firefox can't connect to www.123greetings.com but Chrome can.

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at www.123greetings.com.

Hello Firefox Support Team,

I am facing an issue with Firefox Sync. I have logged in using the same Firefox account on my new device (or after reinstalling), but my bookmarks, saved passwords, and other synced data are not appearing.

I have tried signing in again, checked my internet connection, and confirmed that I am using the correct Firefox account. Despite this, nothing is syncing.

Please help me restore my synced data. I would really appreciate your support.

Thank you, Shubham Sen

After my pc has been on for a while, seemingly random duration, Im not able to open firefox anymore. For example if clicking on a link in discord, or if I close the browser and want to open it again. I've tried refreshing and reinstalling but that didn't help.

I am using the Raindrop (raindrop.io) bookmark manager. It has been working fine on Firefox for years. However, with my recent update to Firefox 140, it is broken. Specifically, I can no longer use the highlighting function. It works fine on Chrome, but not on Firefox. I've seen several similar reports on Reddit's Firefox forum (r/firefox).

What to do? I don't want to have to switch to Chrome. Suggestions appreciated.

bold text I receive news notifications from mozilla firefox as popups; the dismiss option no longer works so they stay there blocking access to other areas. How do i fix?

Over the past 2-3 months, Outlook, when opened on Firefox, continuously signs me out and forces me to sign in whenever I leave it open for more than a few minutes. Some days this occurs 5 or 6 times and has become very annoying. Even when I choose 'trust this device', or 'keep me signed in', or 'don't ask again for 30 days', it just automatically signs me out. I use 1 desktop and 1 laptop and this problem exists on both.

Also: I have a default font chosen for email composition that the system all of a sudden seemed to not recognize. I can select all content in an email and change it to my default font but it doesn't use it automatically. It either uses Segoe or Calibri depending on which computer I'm using. I have one laptop & 1 desktop. Oddly, if I place my curser down at my signature, which is formatted with my preferred font, the system will then use the correct font. As I'm typing, if I need to correct something, after doing so and trying to type the next word, it refuses to put a space between the where the curser is and the first letter of the next word. I literally have to start a new line by using the enter/return key, type the next word, then use backspace to take it back up to the previous line where it belongs. These are both small details but drive me batty!

I checked with my IT dept and they had me do a test drive on Chrome, which I NEVER use. Sadly, none of these issues exist in that browser, so for the time being I'm forced to use Chrome if I want to avoid the constant need to sign in and the other irritating malfunctions.

Anything you can point to or settings I can change to fix these issues?? Appreciate your assistance! Kayla Bates

I would like to inspect the data that would be removed if I checked the "Settings for Clearing History > Data: Site settings"

From earlier experimentation, I observed that checking that box removes some persistence data that the ChatGPT web site uses, for instance. I also observed that it removes "Exceptions - Cookies and Site Data" that I have entered (not sure why, because it's data I typed, not data that the web sites are saving on my machine).

But the question is what steps are performed on what tables in the current user's profile folder. If not all contents are removed from a folder, please specify what the deletion criteria are.

I've added pinned shortcuts to my homepage before, but am not able to do so now. I read the instructions, but am not seeing the three dot icon for the menu on my address bar. I have bookmarked the site and it is showing in bookmarks.

What am I doing wrong?

Google Meet repeatedly drops and rejoins calls with "you have lost your internet connection" error. It's been happening consistently over the past few weeks. I have zero issues if I join the same calls with Google Chrome. I've tried updating to latest, restarting Firefox, restarting my machine, but it still happens.
