Firefox Community Forum

Periodically I open Friefox and all my cookies have been deleted. I go into settings to find "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" has been checked (NOT BY ME!) again. This is very annoying as I then have to log into all my websites and go through 2FA. This is annoying to the point that I am posting on this site for help. Next step is find a new browser that doesn't screw up my work-flow randomly for no reason.

I have recently re-installed Firefox version 140.0.2 (64 bit) following a crash and have been reconfiguring it to my requirements. I have the bookmarks drop down menu on the left of my screen but would really like it on the right hand side. I have searched the various on line articles but can only find a solution going back to 2019 which suggests that there is a small arrow next to the word Bookmarks at the top of the menu, but there is no such arrow on my version, only a X, which closes the drop down. I would have attached a screenshot, but the facility doesn't work on the drop down menu. :-)

Am I missing something here please or is this option no longer available?

Regards and TIA

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.

I have two computers. Both sign into the same Firefox account. Both instances of Firefox are the same version (134.0.1 64-bit).

On my main computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the first image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-42-57.png)

On the other computer, creating a new tab is set to Firefox Home (default), and clicking the "+" sign to create a new tab results in the recommendations appearing as seen in the second image (firefox_2025-01-19_17-43-57.png)

How to I get both instances of Firefox to do the same thing when creating a new tab, i.e. organize the recommendations like the second image?

Hi community!

For some reason, the short description of an email is now under the subject instead of besides it in the overview. This does something to my head that, atleast for me, makes it cluttery and hard to hover over who sent me email. I want a column with who sent me mail, then I want right of it a short description, the start of the mail, just like it always was. It takes vertical space so less email is visible and my head has to switch from "from" to "content" to "from" to "content" which is for some reason very tiring. It's one of the reasons I hate outlook... Please don't tell me Thunderbird changed into outlook -_-

How do I change this back to the way it was?

I haven't figured out how to get Firefox to fill in Verification Codes when logging into web sites that require such.

Can you provide steps to this feature?

I recently reloaded my M1 MacBook Air with macOS Sequoia. Ever since doing so, Firefox opens the right-click menu every time I press Control+Return (like when attempting to autocomplete a URL ending in .com, a feature I use quite frequently). It is only in Firefox that this happens, no other browser or program is doing this. I have uninstalled Firefox using AppCleaner, downloaded a new copy of Firefox 131.0 and reinstalled without any change in this behavior. Any ideas on what I can do to stop this so Control+Return only autocompletes a URL again?

Hello, I would like to create shortcuts that I can type into the address bar and go to a specific website/url. In chrome I used a function that looked something like the image I uploaded. I don't know if Firefox has this function, I couldn't find it

I know that addons have no power on special pages. I understand the security concerns and I agree. I would still like to at least open `about:about` from an addon, like e.g., vimium or just from a bookmark. Is that possible? And if so, how?

Bookmarks, History, Downloads are all gone missing. Can't restore them, tried failed. Been using Firefox since Netscape Navigator, Don't want to change browsers. Can bookmarks, history, downloads come back or do I have to change browsers because this small problem. thanks [edited email from public]

I am using latest firefox developer edition. After firefox updated automatically, I found that I lost toolbar customization settings. I reconfigured everything, but the next day when it updates I lost the settings again. It seems that there is a bug in Firefox. How can I fix this? If this is a bug, when will it be fixed?

Is it possible to remove the border/frame lines around the Menu Bar and the Context Menu in Ver. 131.0.3 to make it look like Ver. 100.0.1.?

Experimenting with userChrome.css only seemed to change some things such as background color and padding size of the context menu, but as a css noob it’s no surprise it didn't work when trying to remove borders, remove margins.

Attached is a screenshot of Ver. 131.0.3 (upper) and which parts of the menus I'm looking to customize or revert back to the style of Ver. 100.0.1 (lower).

Tysm for you time. bteg

Helllllllllllp! Just had firefox install an update & now all my saved bookmarks, login passwords & previous home page have all gone. Have reset Home page, checked that Profile is correct & the bookmark folder is empty. Where have they all gone. Yes I have restarted my computer but made no difference.

Howdy! Here are the details noted in my question.
