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.

hi team

How can I stop firefox automatically saving .pdf documents into my downloads folder.

I open and use hundreds of .pdf documents everyday, and my downloads folder is at capacity with my viewed pdf's.

please help.

Greetings, I am on the spectrum with aspergers. I have issues with organization, lining up objects, etc, but I am highly intelligent and present well. I have no doubt society is aware of all the tropes that surround folks with my......difference. I have an incredibly hard dealing with change, and it sometimes wrecks my mental health. The changes are constantly throwing my health and welfare for a loop, and it is really harmful.

Everytime I get firefox setup to where I am comfortable, something new gets shoved down my throat. How to stop the constant feature change diarrhea abuse is inflicting on my health? Recent example. I only use 2 search engines, and I cant deal with the rest, its a colour thing sorry. I have had my search engines set up like this for 14 years.

Recently, firefox decided that I should go for another life rollercoaster, even though I didn't ask for it, and that I should permanently have things like history bookmarks tabs and actions as search engines, and they shouldn't be removable.

I don't have a history, as I value my privacy. I don't have bookmarks, because I remember everything and it sucks, and I type about 350 wpm. Tabs information is within history, so I see firefox as duplication idiots in this case, and I don't do any actions, not even sure what they are and I really don't care at all.

My parents are considering a lawsuit against firefox for accessibility issues like this, as 1 of my dad's best friends is an accessibility lawyer.

How can i stop firefox from constantly flipping my autism world upside down? I don't want my parents to sue them because it will bring a lot of attention on me.

Please help me re-normalize the internet for spectrum users.

I’m trying to get into my bank account and thus my credit card online, I had a message to check some recent charges. I’m having some trouble with ending correct info.

I login follow prompts, I have to sign out of phone to get things to work also. but because you have to go into authenticator app to verify, by the time you come back to verify it has failed. I have done this several times, but with no avail! What can be done about this situation, yes i have tried login with email, but still get the same issue.

I have 5 PCs, in 3 of them Firefox VPN started working a week ago. In the other two I don't see a VPN and I've tried all the troubleshooting information in support and chatgpt recommendations. What I noticed was that the PCs with VPN had Firefox in English while one that didn't get the update it was in Greek. So I switched language and VPN appeared! Then I tried to revert to Greek again and VPN disappeared. Now even if I switch languages I don't get VPN.

After discovering a bug in v1.57.0.1 (related to failing to play videos on facebook - bug report filed) - in a senior moment compounded by exhaustion, I uninstalled v 157.0.1 without making a backup of the profile. IOW, I fucked up.

After I installed a stable version, v 153.4.0, I selected my prior username profile from the firefox startup menu. I got a popup warning that attempting to load the profile of a newer version on this older version might corrupt the profile settings. But is offers only 2 option: create a new user profile or QUIT firefox. No option to attempt to load the profile I was using on v 157.0.1 even if risky.

Besides that, with a new raw profile, I am finding v153.4.0 buggy! When I open Settings (about:preferences) the sidebar is populated with all the normal sections but none of them show the options. the main window is blank, except for a search box for "Find in Settings".

I am getting too old for this :\

I *think* I had Sync enabled and my android cell phone added. but I am concerned that I might erase whatever profile settings I might have on my phone if it syncs with this new, blank profile on my desktop.

Is there a way to possibly recover the settings profile I had on v157.0.1 before i uninstalled it? anything 'preserved' in the Trash or ?? (I see nothing in Trash related to the firefox un-install)

I see several profiles in my current user > .cache > mozilla > firefox

I have made duplicates of all of them. Am I safe in trying to create a new user based on the profile of my prior account from v 157.0.1?

I have done everything I can find to get my Firefox bookmarks menu working correctly in Windows 11. Every time I shut down and come back they are not working and I have to do a restore. The bookmarks are there but they are dead, inactive. I can do a restore and everything is happy, until I shut down and log back in.

I've done 2 clean new installs including deleting all the folders and files.

I've also done deleted remaining Program & Profile Folders (For a True Clean Install)

A website added as exception is deleted next time Firefox is used. Cannot find any solution. Can turn off ETP manually via shield symbol in url bar.

I own the website name, YourAgeCode.com. I cannot reach it through Firefox. I can through Chrome.

I have other website names that do not have a problem with Firefox.

I have gone to Settings and changed the proxy, however it did not help.

Server Not Found

Firefox can’t connect to the server at www.youragecode.com. What can you do about it?

   Check to make sure you’ve typed the website address correctly and try again in a few moments.
   Check your network connection.
   Check that Firefox has permission to access the web (you might be connected but behind a firewall).

I dont know how to give Hola camera and microphone permissions manually because the mobile browser is not asking for permissions anymore, I have given exception to this website already so I can have a Telehealth appointment.
