Firefox Community Forum

I recently opened Firefox to see a new flagged warning under my toolbar that says "The security sandbox is disabled. Your configuration is unsupported and less secure."

I have gone into about:config and adjusted every security.sandbox element to see if that would change anything; it did not.

I am running on Windows 11 Home so I cannot install or properly run Windows Sandbox.

I would either like a solution to enable the sandbox once again, or just remove the notification from the toolbar.

recently Firefox has started leaving a small gap at the top of the window with the desktop background (the light blue in the screenshot) is visible when the window is maximized.

This issue doesn't occur with any other program and occurs in troubleshoot mode.

After the 145.0 update when I start Firefox both the menu bar and the top bar with the exit icon are missing. This is the first issue I've had since using Firefox when the new revision was in the 20's. Per some quick Support research, I press F 11 twice (NOT once) to restore the screen to include the top bar with exit icon and menu bar with my Windows task bar showing (as normal for the past 2 decades). When I close out Firefox in less than full screen mode and then start up Firefox again, it properly includes both the top bar with exit icon and the menu bar. HOWEVER, if I close Firefox in full screen and then restart, I am missing the top icon bar and menu bar... again. Press F11 twice and the bars are back to square one. HOW DO I FIX THIS SO I DON'T HAVE TO PRESS F11 TWICE ON EVERY STARTUP TO RESTORE MY SCREEN?????? WHY DID YOUR RECENT UPDATE CHANGE MY SCREEN SETTINGS?????

Hello,

I am having an issue where my menu bar continuously shows up. If I create another tab and drag it to create a new window, it goes behind my active window. When I try to change to that window it continuously opens the menu bar and refuses to allow me to change. I have to minimize my current window and drag the other window to get it to focus. Alt + Tab does not work to swap between them. Every time I click an application and click back to window the menu bar appears again, sometimes I have to click 3-4 times before it goes away.

I have tried made sure it was not my keyboard with an alt key stuck, tried multiple browsers, only firefox is the issue. I've created a new profile with zero extensions, the issue persists. I've also completely refreshed firefox with no success. Made sure all my drivers were updated and restarted the PC, unhooked the keyboard, nothing works - it continues to have issues. Running out of ideas here. I've also tried the below below solution for the menu bar and again, no luck. Any help would be great. Thanks!

The attempted menu bar fix I've tried:

Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter. Click "Accept the Risk and Continue". In the search bar, type ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses. Double-click the entry to change the value from true to false. Restart Firefox.

As stated, the default DNS settings have to be turned off to proceed with the returns function on Amazon. The "Confirm" button remains greyed out under the default DNS setting. This is also true for Firefox for Android, v.145.0. Is this expected behavior? I have not had this issue previously. Thanks.

On Facebook I get posts from DoubleDown casino that have internal links to acquire free credits/points. When I click on the link, DoubleDown begins to open but goes "grey" and shows a rotating/pulsating circle but never opens. Any idea why? What do I need to do to get the links to open. No problem with Google.

I see in one of the past recent updates, I notice that "- Original Profile" is in the windows and not just the title of the website I'm on. Any way to remove it? It looks off and not necessary to me.

Every time I go to use programs on my computer while on a Firefox session, when I return to Firefox, the menu that appears when I'd typically press the Alt key drops down. Every time. The only way I can get it to stop is by exiting out of the session entirely and reopening it. There is no option on my Firefox settings that can help me disable the action.

I have not installed or changed anything in my settings, it began happening suddenly, and has become an interruption in my workflow. Any ideas on what might have caused or what I can do to fix it?

Hi,

This is the first time I have reset my PC after switching to FireFox.

As far as i was aware, I had an account that allowed syncing.

Anyhow, I've logged into what I had thought was my account, yet it is empty.

Is it possible to have multiple accounts from the same email address?

If i provide my email address, can someone check to see what the issue is?

I'm 99.999% sure I have the correct email address.

Whenever I try to purchase anything from the Mozilla merchandise store, the checkout does not load at all, no matter what device, OS, or browser I am using. This does not happen in any other store ran by Spreadshop, and I've asked some friends and they've had the same issues as well.

Any help as to how I could access the checkout, or any other way of buying these products would be greatly appreciated.

I am using Firefox Browser 145.0 and CCleaner Free version 7.1.1042.0. Either CCleaner wiped out the 4 rows of saved shortcuts, or, I have a unwanted Checked or unchecked Firefox setting. The home Firefox page is black, with no tiles showing, no way to add tiles as far as I can tell

Is their a way to reload the ones I had yesterday? Are they saved in configuration / about: Thanks for helping me. Dave Thompson

Whenever I try to switch applications, firefox forces itself on top. And if i try to switch applications without the use of the windows key (I use two monitors), I will be unable to switch to the application until I press that windows key and manually click it. Whenever I try to switch, the Menu Bar opens up. So, when I try to switch applications firefox doesn't let me. Other programs do except firefox. I have no idea if it's a result of an option or keybind. Please help

Hello all -

I ran into an error earlier in the week which forced me to reset the data of my firefox account. Today, I was trying to look at the Inspect (Q) option on a website, but when I clicked on it, the box was empty and did not have the CSS code there.

Does anyone else have this issue? And is there anything I can do to fix it?

If I go fullscreen in any mediaplayer (such as YouTube, Crunchyroll, Prime Video or Jellyfin) I get a bar at the top and a bar in the left. You can see either the wallpaper or another programm, its like shifted to the right and bottom. I know its a problem with tunred off Hardwareacceleration. If I turn it back on the problem never occurs. I tried with troubleshoot mode enabled but there I couldnt recreate it because the problem does not occur, even after I turn troubleshoot mode off. The problem only occurs again after a complete restart of the computer.

I know there are other posts with the same problem but there was never a solution.
