Hello all. Since the update to Version 113.0 I have been getting an error in my Event Viewer which is Event 2 Firefox Default Browser Agent . I am now on Version 113.0.1 and still get this error. Firefox is my default browser. Below is an image of what I see in my Event Viewer and also the full view of the event itself. I seem to not be having any problems with the browser but I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on why this is happening or forward to the Devs.

Respectfully, Don

I've just installed Firefox 113.0 and my tab bar is now above the toolbar and bookmarks bar. Up until 112, the tab bar was below the bookmarks bar. I have no changed anything in UserChrome and in fact that file is still dated 2020. I've searched but haven't found an explanation. Anyone know what changed or is this just a bug? Thanks

I am on a unstable internet connection and while trying to download a large file it gets often interrupted. By default Firefox deletes the .part file and I am forced to again download from zero. Is there a config that I could change so Firefox keeps .part files so I could continue resuming the interrupted download?

So for the last little while, Facebook has been making a complete nuisance of itself on firefox. This isn't a browser problem, because the other tabs I have open work perfectly fine, but FB takes forever to load, and any button I press to interact with it, (like the reload button,) also lags, (but, again, works fine on other tabs,). It doesn't even register links as being clickable for a good minute after loading. The page also seems to reset every time I switch from another tab to it, showing a blank page with a loading symbol. I have tried deleting the entire history, and restarting the browser, and deactivating the adblocker, (the only extension active) and nothing seems to help. Does anybody know why it's doing this, (other than because the company follows the 'if it isn't broke, break it' theory, which we all already knew,) and how to fix it?

For some reason today I started having issues with thumbnails not loading for youtube videos. I logged out of my google account and went to log back in, but whenever I try to login to my google account now I get a 400 error. I can login fine on other browsers and other devices. I have tried the following troubleshooting steps:

cleared all cache and cookies flushed DNS created a new firefox profile in about:profiles and set it as default Re-installed firefox multiple times refreshed firefox used Revo Uninstaller to fully remove all traces from firefox and reinstalled Manually removed all traces of firefox from appdata and program folder and installed the beta version Ran windows updates and rebooted ran an SFC scan Ran a DISM online restorehealth

Every single time I get the same result, 400 error when trying to log into my google account. Starting to feel like I'm loosing my mind here. Any troubleshooting ideas would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Having this issue for weeks now, I finally decided to create a ticket. I currently use Firefox Developer Edition, but it has some problem: At random times, a background process starts and begins to use an absurd amount of CPU. I have a really good CPU and this issue still occurs when I start my laptop without even unlocking it yet.

I'm thinking it has something to do with an update service, but I already tried disabling automatic updates and updated to the last version. I even deleted all add-ons, but it didn't help at all.

There is a strange folder in the installation folder named "tobedeleted", which gets automatically created. I don't think it is some virus because viruses would've aimed for Firefox and not the Developer Edition, which is a completely separate install. I didn't have this problem about 2 versions of Developer Edition earlier so I don't think it's my system config or antivirus/firewall.

The issue is very strange and annoying, I've tried reinstalling, deleting and removing leftover folders on the whole disk but the issue still persists. I even did a Firefox Refresh multiple times, but nothing seems to work.

I would be very thankful if this problem gets solved and I'd love to help you guys analyze the situation because I really like the Developer Edition. I have a lot of experience with programming and computers in general so I could do some debugging.

Thanks in advance!

Greetings,

Rein (rdeboer2004@gmail.com)

1. Open the https://docs.github.com/en/rest/repos/repos?apiVersion=2022-11-28#list-organization-repositories Firefox jumps to the #list-organization-repositories and the article about "List organization repositories" is in the main focus. See the first image on the left

2. Scroll in the right list menu to the item "List repository teams" and click on it (see the image attached on the right)

Expected result: The browser jumps to ancor # list-repository-teams and the article about "List repository teams" is loaded in the main focus. Actual result: The Firefox does not jump to the ancor # list-repository-teams and the article about "List repository teams" is not in the main focus. The right list menu scrolled up to the item "list repository items". The article about "List organization repositories" is still in the main focus

Environment: Windows 11 (64 -bit), Firefox Developer Edition 113.0b3 (64-bit)

A month ago I started to have problem with twitch. After 5minutes or 2 hours- random times or random tabs, if I have opened more than 1, which is always the case. Some tabs or all, again it's random will give twitch 2000 error and refresh, closing tab,etc nothing will work, except closing WHOLE browser, not just tabs and this is not guaranteed that it will work.

I'm losing my mind with closing whole browser-windows-tabs on different monitors and then re-opening all of that again when I get 2000 error and I always do get it.

Did like 50 re-installs, it's always the same. I tried to go back to older version, but Firefox always want to create new profile saying I have old version installed and I DO NOT want that, I want everything as it is right customized,etc right now.

A large number of developers prefer to use a vertically-oriented monitor, as it provides a more efficient way to read code. However, as demonstrated in the first screenshot, the Firefox developer tools appear cluttered and disorganized when displayed in this orientation, especially when the three-panel layout is enabled. This makes the user interface difficult to use effectively.

In the second screenshot, even with the right sidebar minimized as much as possible by default, a significant amount of screen real estate remains underutilized, resulting in a subpar user experience. The question arises as to how this issue can be resolved.

If the Firefox development team has not given sufficient attention to optimizing their developer tools for vertical monitor orientations, what is the appropriate way to request that this feature be prioritized in their development roadmap?
