Why hasn't firefox 147.0.4 updated to firefox 148 ? The computer is windows 10 home 64 bit that is enrolled in extended security updates. The update has been released a few days ago I believe, in Canada,also I;m wondering if there is a button that is available in "about:config" that forces a update check. Thanks James

Windows 11 Home 64-bit

For the last couple of days, FF has been signing me out of all social media sites and some other sites that are open in tabs also. I'll go back to the tab, and be signed out when I was signed in 5 minutes ago. Google, FB, Reddit all have this problem and some streaming sites. I had changed my settings to clear all data when it was closed, so I thought that might be it, but I changed it back and restarted FF and the computer and it's still doing it. Haven't tried another browser yet.

The last update (which was VERY rocky... I had to reinstall and functionality has NOT been great since) eliminated the Bookmarks icon from the top ribbon. I've looked through settings, but find no way to restore it. Can it be restored? I now have to click the menu, Settings, and THEN Bookmarks.

I set the about:config settings when I got the new computer early last year. It's been working fine. Suddenly, searches are popping up again to the urlbar.

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar is still set to false. Keyword.enabled is still set to false.

I see a couple of site references to browser.fixup.alternate.enabled, but it doesn't exist.

How do I get FF back to proper search in the search bar?

When I wake up Firefox from sleep overnight, it is unresponsive until I force quit. I am on v147.0.4 on my M4 Mac Mini. It doesn't happen in shorter sleep periods. I can click something in it and then when I switch to another app, it responds. But the browser on normal interactions won't respond at all.

I have Firefox installed and pinned to the taskbar. When I click it, it immediately goes to a download Firefox page instead of opening. I then open another tab to get into g mail or anything else. I can then close the download tab and continue. This is most annoying. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling which works but then lost all bookmarks and the answer there was to go to old Firefox and restore, which I did and that worked , however, the download page came with as well and this time in a different more colorful version that is quite long.

I'm struggling to disable this behavior of firefox. When I type "something: text", it's opening a pop-up asking "Open link with System Handler?".

I would rather just search the internet for "something: text".

How can I do that?

I've tried to play with parameters like network.protocol-handler.expose.something network.protocol-handler.app.something network.protocol-handler.external.something network.protocol-handler.warn-external.something

but didn't manage to do it

Hello, I'm using Firefox 147.0.4 on Windows 11. When I open the Adobe Firefly website and I try to upload a file to the Adobe server using drag and drop or by browsing the Windows file system, nothing happens ... There's no error message, but the file isn't uploaded. Of course, this site works perfectly with Opera or Edge... On the Adobe forums, many users have the same problem with Firefox, and Adobe's response is always the same: change browsers ! Thank you for keeping me informed about the resolution of this problem, as I don't want to change browsers ! My email address is [edited email from community support forum]

Have a great day, Sincerely,

Mr. Fernandez
