I would be SO HAPPY if you could add an option under new tab in settings so you can set new tab to a URL or upload a static site! Currently, you can set Firefox home to a custom URL, but you can only set new tab to a blank page or the "Firefox home" page. It would be good if you added an option to upload a static site and add the URL option for new tab too! I want this because I have actually made my own static site custom new tab page, but I can't actually use it. =(

12 hours ago Firefox stopped working .No reason ; no changes just the following message including access to this site.So now I have to access with edge . Secure Connection Failed

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

During cleaning up by CCleaner, accidentally the Histrory of the Firefox Browser (open folders and apps) all were deleted. Is there a way to retrieve and restore the then open folders ?

so for a few months, i was using the widgets in firefox which are the to-do list and focus timer. but one fine day (i guess the browser updated) the widgets have disappeared and i cannot find them in the settings or the customise option on the main screen. my current firefox version: 151.0.4 (64-bit). i have also selected the option for "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" but it auto updates. firefox gives me the option to roll back to 152.0.1.

i want the widgets back.

The Vertical tab AI, where you can connect your AI, is stuck on my work email. Everytime I click to go to my premium personal account it opens a new tab to use the full view option, but i dont want that. I want to use the vertical tab version. The vertical tab version does not switch accounts.

When downloading a form from a web site, I unfortunately selected *Deny All* from the new security Drop Down Box. Now all downloads "failed" as response. How can I change this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled browser, however no change.

I CANNOT log into my Facebook account since Firefox launched your VPN. I didn't sign UP for the VPN but I'm troubleshooting and the VPN launch happened at the same time I was denied access to Facebook. Can you FIX this problem????? It is infuriating!!!! I can SEE the page and friends can SEE the page which means it hasn't be LOCKED or deleted. I just can't access my own page - not with my phone # or email. I just get a 2-step authentication notice EVERY TIME I try to login and when I do try to log in, I get the "technical issue" notice. My page - https://www.facebook.com/SueCastner

I have been working on this since SUNDAY and I am the Press/Media liaison for a number of organizations. This SNAFU is going to get me fired if I can't get back on social media! There's GOT to be someone in your organization who can connect me with an actual human being to FIX THIS!!! PLEASE

I am running Firefox 151.0.4 on a Win 11 (25H2) AMD Ryzen 5, 32 GB ram. Every time I close Firefox, it generates a crash report. That takes several minutes during which I can't start a new Firefox window. The crash report says the report was submitted successfully but when I look in about:crashes the reports shows they need to be submitted.

I ran in troubleshoot mode and disabled all plugins and did not see any extensions listed. I restarted and it still crashes. Firefox seems to run fine. But the crashes when it closes are annoying and disruptive.

here are the first few lines of a recent crash report: Firefox 147.0.1 Crash Report [@ shutdownhang | mozilla::SpinEventLoopUntil | nsThreadPool::ShutdownWithTimeout ]

Hello, I am using mozilla built in VPN but I have an issue as for some sites my internet download manager can't download videos while it can when I use my other VPN app.

I am getting more frequent "Firefox can’t create a secure connection to the server " messages. This isn't inherently an issue, but on most of them there is no longer a "continue anyway" button. I know your first response will be "It's for your safety." Well now, I'm a big boy, 58 to be exact, and I wear my big boy pants everyday. I am perfectly capable of deciding how much risk I'm willing to accept. This especially applies to sights I am familiar with and trust that suddenly trigger your warning for some mysterious reason. This is becoming a large problem for me and if there isn't a fix for it I may have to reconsider my use of Firefox.

Apparently, cookies are not allowed for audio sonograms on eBird,org (Cornell) and I have tried removing the shield and setting cookies to the general setting. The Header has an invalid 250N value. Can you please help me enable these files on any given eBird or Cornell Labs page? I find your instructions very confusing about which settings to use. I have removed all ad blockers from the site and the problem does not originate through my security app (Vipre). These were suggestions from your forum users. Please only post specific instructions to fix my problem. .Why is this feature blocked in the first place? Thank you.

Recently, I've been having a problem with signing in to things via my Google account – the problem being that I can't.

Whenever I click on the "sign in with Google", it redirects me to the "accounts.google.com" page, prompting me to choose my account, but once I do, I get redirected to "accounts.google.com/gsi/transform", which is just a blank page with nothing in it (see image attached).

I know this is not a problem with Google, as I have no problem signing in anywhere else.

This happened to me once before, but the reason was one of my extensions, which for some reason interfered with the sign in; however, this time this solution does not work. I tried disabling every single one of my extensions, turning all kinds of protections in the settings on and off, deleting all cache for all relevant sites, but to no avail.

I of course also tried looking this problem up on the internet, but whenever I found someone with this problem, the solution that worked for them was always just disabling an extension.

Thank you for any answer.

I'm the I.T. Director for a school and we use the Securly filtering system. I can't get Firefox sync to work behind this filter. What is the URL that Firefox is trying to connect to for sync so I can add it to the whitelist? Or, IP address. Also, does Sync use my system DNS or does it have some sort of internal DNS that it queries for sync? Because I recently found out the hard way that I have to use the Securly's DNS IP's or nothing works.....

My FF Browser introduced a vertical row of rings which I want to get rid off. Im using W10 and FF Version 151.0.4 (64-Bit). Rings are stable, updates show them again. Any Help???

Hello there, I use Firefox on Linux and on my Iphone. On the Iphone, when I type in asomething in the search bar, on the bottom of the app I can select with one click, which search engine to use. On firefox desktop, this needs more clicks and I would find it helpful, to have the engines shown next to the text and be reachable with one click. Thank you for this great browser!

In Firefox, a lot of my pages are not loading at all...the tab just shows that the website page is loading but it never does. The menus of the website will appear, but pages are not loading. This is not happening in MS Edge. I prefer Firefox, but lately have had to go to MS Edge to load pages. What could be happening?
