Firefox Community Forum

I'm using Firefox on Windows 10.

For a long time I've been experiencing freezing in downloads of all sorts of files sizes and different hosts. I start the download, sometimes they finish normally (if smaller sizes) but most of the time they freezes at random percentage and I have to restart from the start.

For downloading larger files are a pain, to have wait and need to keep restart if it freezes.

When I'm using others browser, such as LibreWolf and Zen Browser (forks of Firefox), it doesn't happen and all downloads work flawless.

My firefox on this PC is acting odd. It does not open all my links that I expect to open. Some YouTube videos won't start, just go to black. And often sign-in links on approved pages do not work. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing changes.

I have been using Mozilla for many years but now all of a sudden I cant sign into my Delta Extranet account. This is very strange .. I did nothing to make this happen..

https://screenrec.com/share/CE3hjGg6bc I tried the suggestions clearing cache, history, Privacy settings and it still does not work properly

While using Dext there is a visual of the uploaded pdf file. Now there is a notice that my Firefox settings need to be changed. Dext does not have instructions for Firefox and I have not yet located the spot in settings to adapt for this. Looking for directions.

Hello Team,

I had saved a lot of passwords and bookmarks to my account but as you can see, after I signed in, I cant see any of mentioned above. Kindly support for re-access of my bookmarks and saved passwords.

GMAIL perceptibly slow on web interface thru FIrefox v135

BUT, (and there is always a BIG butt),

on Opera Air116.0.5366.82 (arm64) it works fine.

Have cleared cache and restarted cold several times.

Frustrated.

For some time now, whenever I would try to download any kind of file from the web, it wouldn't do anything and it would just show a .part file in the downloads folder. The same type of file (i.e. jpg) would be able to be downloaded from certain sites but not from others.

At one point I though it might be an OS problem, but the issue wouldn't be replicated in other browsers (Chrome/Safari)

Recently, I tried once more fixing this and by disabling the "Always ask where to save" I was able to download anything from anywhere again, but only to the downloads folder.

Hello,

I Created a few weeks ago a custom theme for my own personal use (Not uploaded to WEB). I exported it from Firefox myself and fully tested that it could be loaded as is custom when I create something. Unfortunately I had a system crash and have had to reinstall software & apps including FireFox. I am using exactly the same version of firefox as before and all the same identical plug-ins. I know on some ocassions issues can be caused with different versions of the same software. There for I have made completly sure that I have installed all same versions as before.

I always get error when trying to load my theme. I know the file is not corrupted as I mentioned I had tested it.

The error that is displayed is as follow.

about:addons This add-on could not be installed because it appears to be corrupt.

As I mentioned above I know the file is not corrupt. Can someone please help as I would like to do this locally not via the WEB or Firefox addon's site.

I keep getting this message on several websites I have Lastpass and a vpn

An error occurred during a connection to www.ourtime.com. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR

Hello,

I have a local Linux-Firefox installation in /home/user/bin/ and set it for me to be notified, when updates are available (see screenshot). But this never happens. Or where would this notification even show up?

Hi, in windows 10, while I am launching Firefox - if it does not exist yet - a new read-only file is created on the Desktop. This file was created time ago by myself (so its name does not matter much and it contains only a small empty branch). I can't delete it as far as I don't have the rights to do it. I tryied used cmd console and powershell to fix it, but nothing works fine. I run my antivirus, no more result. Tried to trash this file using external programs, same issue. Tryied to change the rights of that file, to reinstall completly FF, nothing seems to be useful. Possible way to solve it : I clean up my C: last week because I wanted more space and a better organization (moment from which that problem began). It is like Firefox was needing a file in the Windows tree and as he couldn't find it, he creates it because he need that this file exists. Regards

The past weeks/months I do not see any square check boxes where they are supposed to be. When I click in the space where I know ther is supposed to be one, a check mark does appear, but it is annoying. Buttons remain empty visibly when I check it. No dot appears, but it does register that I clicked it. Also annoying. It's in automatic, light and dark mode the same

P.S. The same with the check box (email me) on this page, but now I see a check box but not if I clicked it.

I've downloaded the Max Tabs Extension, but; can not get it to function. I appears under the extensions list and is grayed out.

I would like to limit the number of processes running during a Firefox session. Task Manager shows 7 Processes running when only one tab is open.

Am I missing something here. It seems to be loading down my PC.

For the past month or so, I'd say about 20% of the websites I visit using Firefox just show a blank, white screen. (See allbirds.com site image attached for example.)

1. Cleared the cache and cookies to see if that fixed it. It didn't. 2. Entered Troubleshoot Mode to see if that fixed it. It didn't. 3. Disabled all extensions to see if that fixed it. It didn't. 4. Disabled "recommended performance settings" and hardware acceleration--in combination with some of the above--to see if that fixed it. It didn't. 5. Reinstalled Firefox to see if that fixed it. It didn't. 6. Also paused/disabled VPN (Nord) and anti-virus (McAfee) to see if that made a difference. It didn't.

Any other ideas?

Thanks.

I want to download and install Firefox on my new iMac. As administrator it downloads but the instellation won't run. As a user it downloads and I can move the icon into the application folder. Firefox then opens but it won't run. Everything is frozen. What is going on??
