I tried to use a ftp link setting firefox as the default ftp app, not realizing firefox no longer supports ftp. I am unable to reset the default app and can't find the setting to do so. I downloaded filezilla and wish to set it to be the default app for ftp. Can someone help me with this? Before anyone suggests it, resetting firefox to default settings is not an option.

Any time I allow a website to use my location on my home computer, it places me in a suburb in Las Vegas. However, I live near Seattle. This happens on multiple websites including Google Maps and Uber Eats, and on other browsers my location is correct. I'm not running any VPNs or proxy servers, I've verified that my IP address is linked to my correct location, and I've deleted all cache and cookies ("Everything" for time frame) from my history. Is there a way I can have an accurate location again?

Taskbar doesn't appear on hover in Firefox 141/142 when taskbar auto-hide is enabled (Windows 10)

Sorry for my language.

The latest versions of Firefox 141 (and 142 beta 1) do not allow the Windows taskbar to appear when I move the mouse to the bottom of the screen. This happens on Windows 10 with the auto-hide taskbar setting enabled. In previous Firefox versions, this worked fine (except for one older version where it briefly broke). I’m not running Firefox in fullscreen mode, and I have no modifications or themes that could interfere. I tested this on a fresh, clean installation of Firefox — the issue still occurs. After downgrading to versions 140 and 139, everything works correctly again. Interestingly, I also tested the Firefox 141 Release Candidate Build 1 from here: 🔗 https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/candidates/141.0-candidates/ In that version, the issue only occurred in private browsing mode. Could someone please help me resolve this or confirm it as a bug? Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Just today my UI elements went missing. For example I cant see my bookmarks on the bookmark toolbar, new tab sign disappeared. Addons are not the issue, I have refreshed multiple times with no addons installed. The bookmarks are all there, except somethings messing with the firefox. Started in safe mode, but in vain. Checked the group policy in the registry but nothing out of the ordinary. I deleted the policy, did a fresh install and still the problem persists. Tried switching hw acceleration on/off as well.

Any help is appreciated, I never had any problems with firefox before.

When Facebook creates passkey Firefox asks for an USB to be inserted. I have tried to disable USB in the settings ("security.webauth.webauthn_enable_usbtoken","false"). But then Facebook just gets into a retry loop and I can't create the passkey. I use Windows 10, and USB is NOT enabled as an authentication option. I need to fix this as Facebook nags me (in e-mail) to create a passkey.

I'm using Firefox Developer Edition 132.0b2 (64-bit) and noticed that the only way to open a new tab is to click on the pancake icon and select new tab. The "+" icon in the tab bar is missing.

I also noticed that there is no way to reload the page (especially doing a hard reload). This is a major issue when making updates to websites and wanting to see those edit. Clicking in the address bar and then on enter will reload the page, but does not do a hard reload, so the cached version of the page is displayed, not the updates.
