I don't understand why auto:config is so difficult (for me at least) to create. Isn't there an easier way? I've tried following the directions and creating the 2 files. But I can't manage to successfully create auto:config.

I created and pasted the first tile into the prefs folder. For the 2nd, I noticed the firefox.cfg file I created in Notepad appended a .txt suffix. I pasted it into the Firefox top directory. Then typed auto:config into the address bar. Nothing happened. Can anyone tell what I did wrong? Is the .txt suffix not recognized? Or is there's an easier way to do this?

How Can I Double Click to Upload Files?

Firefox recently had an update, and now when I am uploading files, I can't double click to upload selected files. I have to first select the file, and then click the open button.

Before the latest Firefox update, I could simply double click on files to upload. This workflow was much faster.

If I go to about:config, and search for: widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker, I can change the value from 0 to 2, and then I can upload files by double clicking. However, then Firefox forgets my last upload location, and always opens in the home folder.

If I set it back to 0, it remembers my last upload location, but I can't double click to open files.

My current Firefox version is 152.0.1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello,

I'm looking to customize the colour of the message header row (the part highlighted in red; with a black background as shown in the screenshot) to #202020, to match the rest of the elements of the view. While I've successfully managed to customize other elements (code below), I need help with identifying what to specify for the message header row.

.tree-table { background-color: #202020 !important; }

treechildren { background-color: #202020 !important; }

#messagePane { background-color: #202020 !important; }

#messageHeader { background-color: #202020 !important; }

#msgHeaderView { background-color: #202020 !important; }

Thanks and cheers.

I have over 200 email accounts in Thunderbird, and I am getting constant pop-up error messages that say: "Не удалось открыть индексный файл для 'Входящие на [email]'. Возможно, произошла ошибка на диске или полный путь превышает допустимую длину."

I don't need help fixing the emails themselves, but I need to permanently disable these pop-up alert windows because I will soon have over 2000 accounts and I don't want 2000 errors popping up.

I am using the latest version of Thunderbird. I have tried looking for "about:config" or the "Navigation Toolbar" to change the settings to "false", but my interface is heavily customized and I cannot find the menu or the address bar. I need a step-by-step guide on how to disable these error alerts, preferably using the Windows Registry or a configuration file if the menu is hidden.

Prelude: Monitor specs matter: Samsung Odyssey G93SC [Monitor] 1194.7 × 365 × 180.8 mm (approx. 47 × 14.4 × 7.1 inches) on a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 [Display adapter] Display is 5120 x 1440 (recommended) Scale = 100% ISSUE: Fonts in Thunderbird size varies from readable to very hard to read.

Screencap below with filename [font-size-R4--181158.jpg] on your device at 100%, I hope, will show what I see.

Some Fonts in different Thunderbird 'panes' are unreadable without zooming in. The {body} of a reply is very small (see font-size-body--Rev3-07-19-2026_01.jpg below) The image will show the cursor at top left of Body.

I did search here but nothing of this nature it. So here is my question:

QUESTION: Is there a way to edit a config file or the likes to set fonts to be responsive (like a web site is same in any size screen and compensates for size?

Hello,

I'm encountering a highly frustrating issue with Firefox. Even though the "Open previous windows and tabs" option is checked in my settings, it is completely ignored on startup. Firefox systematically opens to a blank tab or home page.

Here are the key details and what I've already checked:

  • The Ctrl + Shift + T shortcut works perfectly: This proves Firefox is saving my session and history; it's only the automatic loading on startup that is being blocked.
  • In about:config, the preference browser.startup.page is correctly set to 3.
  • My privacy settings are standard: Firefox is set to "Remember history" and the "Clear history when Firefox closes" box is unchecked. I am not in permanent Private Browsing mode.
  • The Windows shortcut I use to launch Firefox is clean (no forced URL at the end of the target path).
  • I close Firefox cleanly via the menu, and I've verified that no ghost processes are stuck in the Task Manager after closing.

It makes no sense since the parameter is hardcoded but gets bypassed on launch. Is there a specific file (sessionstore or otherwise) that could be corrupted and blocking the automatic load without blocking the manual restore?

Thanks in advance for your help, I'm out of ideas!

Hopefully, this gets you a fast and highly technical answer. Hang in there!

I utilize a website called Twinspires for wagering on horses. It has a video popup (no sidebar tabs) that one can engage to watch the race outside of the Firefox browser. I quite like this feature. That said, I keep quite sidebar tabs saved as I use that feature to pin and then revisit websites that I want to spend more time on. Problem: If the browser closes on its own or other issue, it doesn't close the video popup. So when I restart the browser it "thinks" that video popup, with no saved sidebar tabs, was the last browser open so I lose all my saved sidebar tabs. If everything Firefox would close when the browser does, one could restore all tabs under history like one would normally do. Is there a setting so everything Firefox that is open closes when the browser does? Thank you.

When an email that is part of a thread is selected the delete button changes places with archive so I end up with a bunch of archives I don't want because I get a lot of mail and delete is my favorite key to spam.

Is there a way of changing this placement behavior or do I need to hack the source and if I do need to go hacking can someone point me in the direction of the file with this evil thing.
