Firefox Support Forum

Greetings,

Due to predatory business practices, I have resorted to launching a basic webhosting business to support my other businesses and provide cost effective online presence solutions to small businesses. In order to provide the best service, I'll need to become a certification authority. I am well aware of how to generate AES256 encrypted key pairs (4096), and I will have no trouble following the rules listed in section 2 here:

Who might I contact to further my goals? You will notice that my sites lack SSL encryption at the moment, because I would prefer to issue them myself. When I self-sign them currently, browsers do not honor my certificates. For some background, here is my linkedin:

Several pages I use regularly will no longer won't open completely in Firefox and I can only open in another browser. I have neeu sing these pages for many years and the have always opened in Firefox.

When I close FF all my log-ins are deleted. Is there a fix? I am running Windows10 - 64 bit - current update 112. Soooooo very tired of logging into EVERY website over and over and over again Plz keep it simple wo/a lot steps. Maybe number the steps so I can follow it a bit easier? <deep sigh>

whenever I purchase an item online, the autofill option (I assume) shows my location as Virginia. This might be based on an incorrect use of my PC ip address. However, I want to change this to the correct state (NY) in which we live. How do I do that?

Hi all -

Lately as part of organizing my life I have had two Firefox windows open, a work one and a personal one.

If I switch back and forth fairly frequently, things seem to function alright. But if I spend too many days only in the "work" window, I lose the ability to use the "personal" window (or vice versa). I can see it and click on it in the "Window" menu, but then nothing happens.

I tried Bookmarking All Tabs to see if I could close Firefox and then re-open the window using the bookmarks, but no functionality appears to be accessible for that window. If I restart Firefox once it will dutifully reopen the ghost window (ie. I can see it in the Windows menu but not access it). Restarting windows again loses the window completely.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is the only solution just to keep "checking in" on the other window, even if I'm only using one of them for a few days?

Thanks in advance, K

I've tried to get firefox to play videos on this desktop for a couple years. YEARS. I thought it was the video card so I bought a 3060. Same problem. Yes I UDD'd it. I've done the regular steps you'll suggest.

How can I get firefox to play the normal videos from say, facebook, youtube, and all the other basic places?? I've gone so far as to scrub Firefox from Regedit. ALL of firefox has been deleted. GPU has been replaced. All of the normal suggestions will not work. If you're going to suggest ANYTHING to do with the hamburger menu, please don't waste both of our time.

This has to be a windows 10 issue that ONLY affects Firefox. Edge and Chrome will play the video(s).

I'm at my wits' end. There are a few websites that just don't open for some reason. Either they don't load at all and I get a blank page or there's a problem with the way they load. I've done some troubleshooting. Figured it might be an add-on, safe mode didn't fix it. Tried a 'refresh'. Didn't fix it. Figured it might be corrupt cache after the first visit, but deleting cache didn't fix it.

Finally tried reinstalling Firefox and it did... but not for long. After the reinstall, the websites were accessible again no problem. But then the next time I closed Firefox and restarted it or shut down my computer, the problem was back. This is 100% consistent. No exceptions. Always reproduces the issue.

To give examples of websites that for some reason stop working: A couple of websites for a game I play (trackmania.exchange and trackmania.io) My work Outlook inbox and more generally the whole Office 365 suite online. The Twitter feed. For some reason the UI loads but the feed just says "Something went wrong. Try reloading". I'm sure there are others I haven't found yet, but for some reason I have no problem accessing YouTube, Google, Facebook, Instagram, etc.

I have no clue how to troubleshoot this any further. Something goes wrong after closing Firefox after reinstalling it. I can't keep reinstalling it every time I turn my computer on. I also don't want to have to use hibernate constantly to keep the first instance open.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Why am I getting this white line completely around Firefox? I did a reset last night and it seemed to have disappeared but it's back again today. I think it may have started with the last update. It seems like with each new update comes new problems. Some days Firefox doesn't work at all for me. Firefox has always been the browser that I have preferred to use but it's rapidly becoming unusable for me. The white line is just cosmetic but Firefox is also plagued with tons of functional problems that keep getting worse. Is there a paid version that actually works?

I've had Firefox issues for months now. It started after the update three updates ago. Firefox would take 10-15 minutes to load, I often couldn't load websites even after it had loaded....except for a couple of nights recently I've been able to use it flawlessly. Like right now. It's almost 11pm and it's working. I've been through the clear the cache, check if the extensions are slowing it down etc. routine. So why is it working now? It probably won't work in the morning, it didn't work last night, but it worked a few nights ago and again tonight. I'm sorry this sounds so strange but I don't know what to do. I've had to use a different browser for a while but would love to come back to Firefox again.

Is there something to Windows 10 and its DOWNLOADS folder that could cause memory issues? Firefox will only let me download so much to the downloads folder before it freezes up while trying to start a download. I then have to force shut down Firefox and move all the downloads to a folder to be able to start downloading again. Would it help if i picked a different folder to download stuff to? Why does this happen?

Since a recent upgrade, so many of my banking and work sites are non-functional. It is frustrating. I have to switch to stupid, high AD Edge browser to get things done. I added the problem websites to allow pop-ups, sometimes it works. I am pretty savvy and cannot be an outlier.

Firefox update deleted large number of extensions, lost much data. unable to use or sign into banking and secure sites, traveling and unable to access air carrier, check in, customs, immigration. you know all the very most important requirement. complete screw-up. update to extensions does not work either. 5 days so far in super inconvenience.

Each time I go to open my Yahoo browser I am asked for my password even though I have selected remember this device. I have to go through the 2nd layer authentication to enter the 6 number code. This should be a simple thing to resolve but I can't figure it out.
