Hi ..

I have installed 'Stop Auto Reload' extension on my browser, (..aimed at stopping Meta/Facebook from automatically reloading my page whenever they feel like it, or because I opened a link from a post.)

As directed, I have listed that site in the two relevant boxes, in the 'Options' tab to show that anything with 'facebook' in the URL should NOT auto-refresh..

But down the 'Options' page a bit further, is another box that says:

'..Don't stop a tab from auto reloading if it has a URL that starts with one of the following URLs:'

.. & it lists: 'https://www.facebook.com/checkpoint/?next'

Now.. I did NOT insert that... And the app will NOT let me remove it.! I can press shift to get another line or go back, but I cannot highlight & delete or backspace-remove that entry. Its like the extension has been tampered with..??

So Meta is still interfering with my browser when I'm on there, & stalls & reloads whenever it wants to..!!

Any advice gratefully received.. Thank you..

I have no other devices to "sync" to. This may or may not be why my "passwords" in Firefox have been locked down as I can not now log into my hotmail.com account. Passwords are visible in Firefox except for the passkey which I can't seem to delete. I need to either see it or delete it. Also, it won't do any good to send a response to the e-mail linked to Mozilla. I had to create a new temporary account to try to get MS to restore my hotmail.com account. The storing of Passwords by Firefox is not helpful to me & I do not want it & need to turn it off. Thanks for help in this multilayered mess of software I'm using.

Is there a way to completely opt out of having AI in my browser?

I find recent implementations of AI in Firefox quite frankly disgusting. I don't want to see it, I don't want to use it, I don't want it suggested to me. Not only it's unneeded, but also all your LLMs are a waste of electricity, fresh water and are a threat to my privacy, and we don't even mention all the legal trouble AI scraping creates.

I need a switch to completely remove any mention of LLMs/AIs in my Firefox browser unless I search for it on the internet (and, trust me, I wont; I'd prefer to continue thinking for myself and having real people with skills and talents do things if I can't do them myself) and have none of them touch me in any way. Kill that thing with fire.

Ideally Firefox, one that advertises itself as a secure browser with respect towards its users, shouldn't have any mention of AI in the first place, you know. But since companies are in a craze about it for some unknown reason (trust me, we don't want it; if I want to be lied to, I'd go to a paediatrician to talk about my symptoms, not a language model I can't trust with my data), at least give your users an option to get that awful thing out of their browser it they want to.

Have a nice day. <3

I can no longer use Firefox to access my banks website. I am told they have broken ties with Firefox. In the past, at times that website would exhibit odd behavior, sometimes attributed to the use of Firefox.

Firefox seems to have issues with various sites, particularly for me in the way of display irregularities.

I'm curious as to why.

I'm unable to install a dictionary from the official FF add-on store. I click on "Install" and this button sort of "activates", turning grey, but remains stuck forever. It's not an add-on, it's a language extension. I read the troubleshooting article. I did NOT clean the extension folder together with sqlite, ini and JSON as suggested, as I'm not sure it relates to my problem.

FF 142, macOS. Installing dictionaries worked in 141, 140 and earlier.

Within a minute of starting Firefox up, it loses internet connection and prevents the computer from connecting to anything else. Using Ethernet or Wifi doesn't work. The only thing that corrects it is restarting the computer. List of things we have tried: Troubleshooting Mode in Firefox Removing all addons Uninstalling and Reinstalling Firefox with the latest update Disabling DNS over HTTPS Clearing Firefox's DNS cache Clearing the computer's DNS cache Adding IPv6 to our standard IPv4 connection Rebooting the router Used a new Firefox profile Run a virus scan

This is on Windows 11. There are multiple other computers on the network, with W10 and W11, and none of them are having this issue. I've tried everything I can think of. After losing connection, it still pings 8.8.8.8.. Is there anything else we can try?

hello https://qrsj-map.lzhailalu.com/ black screen https://www.1024tera.com/ white screen, not loading

tested on Firefox 141.0.3, 142.0.1 and nightly 144 new profile, default settings, no addons, normal and private mode

Brave 1.77 working in both normal and private mode

the problem caused by certificate & certificate give cors error

1st website asked to trust certificate, after i did website loaded with black screen cuz cors blocked resources from loading, the certificate didnt carry over to sub domain https://n-cdn.lzhailalu.com/snow4/2/2/1.webp if i click this i get Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead to trust same certificate this website was lacking r10 lets trust certificate, if im not mistaken it should be replaced with ISRG Root X1 & ISRG Root X2

2nd website certificate was auto verified but cors kicked in blocking resources like this one https://s3.teraboxcdn.com/fe-static/fe-v5-web-index/js/index.b81a2a8e.js clicking this give Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead to trust digicert check my screenshots

i tested some cors addons on other profiles but couldnt bypass it

we need a fix, this is just 2 examples, theres many websites that certificate and cors ruin them, ppl test their websites on chrome thats why firefox need workaround for certificate and cors to work like chrome.

please dont tell me it simple just trust certificates cuz i figured out the problem, that not a solution, brave worked out the box, so thats mean for every website i visit i need to ckeck console for errors

and not switching firefox to brave or chrome, i only use them when firefox fail me in media or websites give me errors, i used firefox for so long and im not going to switch

if theres no proper fix, i need a way to disable certificate, cors or both permanent even if i have to edit omnija, just show me the way, please

for some weeks now, Firefox (latest, in Windows) crashes, or says 'not closed properly' and shows (usually) 12 'instances' in Task Manager when only one tab has been opened. I'm not techie, and need clear advice. Can anyone help please? Hugh, UK

I prefer all my login accounts to log out when I close Firefox. All of my settings are set up to do so, nothing changed, yet suddenly for the last week or so, it has simply stopped logging me out. Every day when I log in, there everything is again. I keep rechecking all my settings, even turning them back off and on, and nothing is fixing this. What's going on?

I asked this same question in Reddit and got a reply to uncheck "delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed", close all Firefox windows, and reopen them, and this did not correct the problem. Please advise.

I saw bunch of threads which suggest to enable "ctrl+tab cycles through tabs in recently used order". It does what I need, but in previous versions I used to press only ctrl+tab. While I was holding ctrl I could iterate over tabs via tab key. After releasing ctrl selected tab was chosen

It differs with current behavior where you press ctrl+tab and after releasing all keys pop up with tabs is still be viewed and you need manual action with space/enter/mouse click to open selected tab

Is there any way to use only ctrl+tab without any manual actions required like it was back in the days where after releasing the control key selected tab is opened?

I am suddenly unable to login to my iCloud account using Mozilla Firefox. I was always able to do so before now. I am able to login using Microsoft Edge browser. I have disabled the Firefox pop-up blocker but still not working. When I input my username and password, iCloud sends me an authentication code... but that next pop-up screen from iCloud having a place to input the code does NOT pop-up, so I cannot enter the code. That pop-up screen comes up in MS Edge. Any help is appreciated!! I'm running Windows 10

I have to resort to using Chrome (yuck) when using Fedex.com. Please fix issues with Firefox and Fedex.com (very, very slow loading) thank you

I've tried to install the language pack for english to have swedish and english spelling checked on my computer. I've added it like the discription mentions but it doesn't show as an option when I try to change it.
