I have changed operating systems from windows to linux mint. I made sure to sync my profile before uninstalling, but now the profile looks to be empty. there are no saved passwords or bookmarks. This worked when I changed between different windows devices last year, but this time it seems stuck. I will check on a windows device when able, but in the meantime, are there any other ways to troubleshoot this?

When accessing important accounts on websites, like financial websites, I've always heard you should close your browser when you're done with the secure website. If you log on in a PRIVATE window and close the private window afterword but leave the main FireFox window open, is that the same thing? I think it is and the private window will delete any login or activity info as if you closed the browser, I just want to confirm with someone more knowledgeable before I make a bad assumption. It also seems to have the added benefit of deleting anything you might download and save elsewhere from the download folder so you don't have to delete it from the DL folder and then the recycle bin. Seems like it's good practice to use the private window this way. Again, just looking for a 2nd opinion.

Thanks,

Amazon - keeps loading and loading without ever finishing, only displaying half the page. YouTube Videos need to preload to avoid buffering. Certain websites can not be reached at all, failing with error message "Looks like your network is blocking this page" or similar. Etsy is not loading at all, just a blank page.

All these pages work fine in other browsers, so I don't think it's my network. I was not able to identify a specific error across all pages via Console. I have tried a few recommended troubleshooting tips, but no change so far. This has been going on for a while, long enough for me to reinstall Firefox - also no change. I'm on version 146.0.1

What is going on?

Problem started with Firefox 146.0.1 Windows 11

1. Open outlook.com in FF browser (https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/). 2. Open any email. 3. No side scrollbar appears so you can't page down within email. Note: the Outlook folder scrollbar does appear and does work. 4. The within-email-item side scroll bar does appear from outlook.com opened in Edge browser. So this is a Firefox bug.

Have tried: a. Windows settings->Accessibility->Visual effects->Always show scrollbars = on b. Turned Adblock on and off for outlook.com c. Firefox settings autoscrolling, smooth scrolling tried all combinations.

Any fixes?

別のノートパソコンやスマフォではアクセスできるがデスクトップパソコンだけで https://www.minim.jp/ アクセスできない。他の多くのサイトにはアクセスできる。

今まで利用していたChromeでもEdgeでも10日前にアクセスできなくなったので、試しにFirefoxをインストール、その後、このサイトにアクセスできた。それでhttps://www.minim.jp/に接続するときだけ、Firefoxを利用していた。

しかし、28日アクセスすると「エラーコード: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR」が出るようになりアクセスできなくなった。 現在もChromeやEdgeではアクセスできない。

問題箇所が不明で改善方法が分かりません。 問題箇所、改善方法をご教示ください。

Windows11 Firefox 146 です。 ウイルスバスターの問題かもしれないと思ってアンインストールして、確かめたが改善されなかった。 ChromeやEdgeの公式版のβ版(最新バージョン)でも改善しませんでした。 OS 25H2 26200.7462で最新版
