Despite re-installing Firefox sidebar is still missing (I spent 3 full days trying to fix it before re-installing). I also can't obtain another tab - I'm restricted just to the one page I'm currently using

Firefox keeps crashing/hanging on startup. Any other browser I use is fine. Been using Firefox for years and would like to keep using it. This has been going on since August, so I have not really been using it since then. Tried all the troubleshoot steps that Mozilla recommends but still crashing e.g reinstall, fresh install.

i have tried multiple extent ions to disable ai in the search box on Firefox an nothing works i still get ai. Again why does everyone think ai is so great. why again are people not given a choice like do you want or not want ai. HATE AI IN SAMSUNG GEMINI AND GOOGLE do not want ai anywhere ion my computer or i phone and please let me know if there is an addon or extensions in Firefox to not see it in my searches in google searches

What the living hell is this? This is prevalent on every PC I've installed FF. Just starting a clean browser with a single tab use 19GB of RAM within 1 second... No wonder why browsing been excruciatingly slow since the previous update.

Yes, I use add-ons like 90% of the users, but that should not warrant a serious and consistent memory leak.

Press ( F5 ) on keyboard ...

( Disable autoplay ) , no selection ... rrr2.jpg

That ...

I'm not sure when this problem started ...

When using shift+tab or ctrl+shift+tab to cycle between tabs in a window, firefox will occasional skip across one or multiple tabs. This will also happen when clicking tabs directly with the mouse. The tab that should be selected shows briefly before the browser automatically switches to one of the adjacent tabs. I do not have the setting "Ctrl+Tab cycles through tabs in recently used order" enabled. This doesn't happen for any specific tabs or windows consistently, and it doesn't specifically happen to unloaded tabs.

why am i getting Firefox not responding and i need to shut it down in ta ask bar it keeps not loading i have removed some of the addon reinstalled it and still it does it

Hi, After a Firefox update my tablet, running Windows 11, always freezes up - no mouse, keyboard, etc. - about 8 minutes after startup, and I have to perform a Windows reset. Currently writing this from an older Windows 10 tablet while the current one is resetting!

Once again the latest firefox browser has issues so I rolled back the last stable version. It keeps prompting me to create a new profile. I want to use the previous profile that has all my setting and bookmarks. I got to about:profiles and selected the profile i want to make default and it will not add it to firefox. How can I do this?

I dont want this profile feature at all it's a complete and total nuisance so I deleted the only profile it had for me but now everything but my bookmarks are gone and I need my settings restored. How do I completely disable this nuisance so I never have to see this annoying color bar in my application menu again? All my settings are destroyed now.

I HAD MY SCREEN SET UP SO THAT I COULD COPE WITH MY VISUAL DISABILITY AND NOW I CAN'T USE IT. YOU HAVE SCREWED IT ALL UP AND I HAVE SPENT HOURS USING AI TRYING TO PUT IT BACK. I HAD DECLINED THE UPDATE, BUT YOU DID IT ANYWAY WITH NO CONSIDERATION THAT SOME PEOPLE NEEDED IT THE WAY IT WAS!!!!!!! I WILL SUE YOU UNDER ADA IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME MY SCREEN BACK THE WAY I HAD IT. Details: I can't have left column bar; I need all my tools on the top bar like they used to be. You made the address bar so huge, I can't move things back on the top bar. You are using tiny symbols on the left bar that I can't even see to tell what they are; I need it in words, not tiny symbols. You took away the choices under the Google Search box so you can't choose to use AI or not. There's probably more, but that's all can think of at the moment. I'm so upset that my blood pressure is skyrocketing and I'll probably have a stroke. This is the second time since I've been a user that you have forced major changes on the users, whether they wanted them or not. I eventually got a usable screen after the prior changes, but it took me time I can't spare, and it was never perfect. Now what you're doing is even worse. Give us a way to go back to the old version so it doesn't destroy our lives like this is doing to mine. I will sue and move to a different browser if I have to.

So each time this pos browser updates I have to comb through ALL of the setting to see what their stupid brains though was a good idea to change for me? What kind of dirty underhanded BS is this? Mozilla is going to CHANGE my settings, NOT only to AUTO FREAKING OPEN like no one will notice this, now I have to spend time seeing if someone hacked my system. Well turns out, it was permission given I am sure through BS EULA. How is this not against the law?

Coffusing (to me) method of registering. Getting fed up getting nowhere. Like Firefox having used it in the past.

I require to make Firefox my default browser with VPN.

Thanks in advance

I am using Windows 10 . I have MS Edge as well as FireFox browsers installed. I just recently installed Thunderbird.

Since I used FireFox and turned FireFox VPN on and then off (after about 15 minutes) I cannot connect to some websites like rockauto.com using FireFox or MS Edge. If I turn FireFox VPN back on I can connect to these sites (rockauto.com is only one example) just fine. But if I exit FireFox and go to use MS Edge -- I cannot access the websites at all, they timeout.

What gives?

Suddenly with the latest update, I'm seeing "send link to mobile" when I right-click on a link. I understand this is useful for many people but I will never use it and would like to remove it from the already-cluttered context menu. I don't see any instructions for doing that, and couldn't find it in about:config. It's frustrating to have something suddenly added without my consent and with no information on how to remove it.

What in the world have you done to Firefox??? It is so screwed up that it is impossible to log in. What used to be a wonderful way to cruise the web somewhat safely has turned into an impossible adventure. After several weeks trying to work around what appears to be bad code, I gave up and went to Opera. I've often wondered if people from competitors to Firefox have infiltrated its ranks to intentionally destroy it. It has happened before and certainly appears to have happened again.
