Tonight I was roaming around my Firefox settings looking at something else, when I noticed this AI piece pre-checked. Why is FIREFOX, who is supposed to be for privacy and security, authorizing an update that automatically choose AI? Not cool Mozilla. Not Cool. Anyone else have this? and yes, I've already fixed it ;-)

I use the Firefox browser.

While online, as I pressed a letter , Firefox closed, and its icon on the Taskbar disappeared.

After finding a Mozilla support page, and updating the browser, I found that all of my Bookmarks had disappeared.

And even worse. I tapped the 3 bars in the upper right corner to go to > Settings > Privacy Security > Saved Passwords. All of my Passwords were eliminated too. This is disastorous.

Help, I'm 71 years old.

You cant just delete all my bookmarks. Im almost in tears to have lost so much. This is beyond a joke, beyond any kind of punishment or war-crime.

How can you have the ability to delite so many bookmarks that people treasure and live with on a whim through b.s. with no apology, no meaning or reason given.

You are atrocious. This action will have caused immeasurable pain and grief to me because you suddenly decide one day you can wipe out all bookmarks on an account for no reason at all.

Shame on you, you absolutley evil harridans.

I have downloaded Firefox ESR and think it has been installed on my masOS version 10.12.1 and am wondering if I can use it on this version after reading your warning about support. Perhaps I have not installed it properly as I have just used what I think was the previous version since it has all the oldsaved sites.

Trying to read PDF pages in Firefox. When I click on a file it says "You do not have OpenText Content Server Browser Web Extension 2.0.10 installed, or it is not enabled. Follow these instructions to install and enable the extension." I've looked in the extension add ons but cannot find the appropriate add-on and when I go to download from file, there are no files that would are appropriate either. Any suggestions? Also, I'm using a federal government laptop if that has anything to do with it.

Thanks guys for any help you can offer....

When I set Firefox's language to English, the translation panel doesn't automatically appear or ask to translate other languages when I'm on English websites. I would like to request a feature that allows the translation panel to always be pinned to the search bar. Even better, if possible, it could also be pinned to the right-click context menu.

In many cases when one opens a new tab, the new one is opened on the right of the "parent tab". After reading the web page of the new tab, one often decides that the new tab is no longer useful and deletes it. Firefox automatically opens the tab on the right of the deleted tab, rather than resuming the "parent tab" on the left. This seems to be an ineffective design as probabilistically there are perhaps >90% chance one wants to go back to the "parent tab".

Q1: should Firefox change the default for resuming the left? Q2: is there a setting that user can change?
