I live in Europe, where this stupid age verification law is in effect. I get around this by using a VPN. The problem is that I have two Firefox profiles set up with the same VPN and the same country. The issue occurs on X (formerly Twitter). On one profile, the VPN works as it should and I no longer need to verify my age, but on the other profile, the VPN has no effect and X (Twitter) asks me to verify my age. Yet the VPN is definitely enabled. I’ve cleared the cache and cookies, but nothing helps. It’s driving me crazy. Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be?

Hello,

It seems that Firefox has lost the ability to clear cookies on exit without also clearing history. This affects the current version, 153, but I started observing it a few versions back, maybe around 148.

In Settings -> Privacy and Security, if I select "Clear cookies and site data every time you close Firefox", this automatically enables "Clear history when Firefox closes". If I unselect the latter, the former also becomes unselected.

I would like to clear site cookies and data whenever I close Firefox, but not browsing history. I'm sure this used to be possible in the past. Is it an intended change that this is no longer possible, or is it a mistake?

Thank you.

I have version 153.02esr. Since two days ago I cannot reply or forward messages. It pulls up the appropriate page but there is no box to send, the space is just blank in the upper left hand corner.

Now when I try to save attachment from an email by dragging and dropping to desktop, Windows pops up "Error Moving File or Folder - Unspecified error" and the operation fails.

And when I try to save attachment from an email by right click > open > Save dialog, the save filename is always "nsmail" but with the original file extension. E.g. a jpg attachment would come up as "nsmail.jpg", and a txt file attachment would come up as nsmail.txt. It does then save it, but why lose the filename?

It used to preserve the attachment filename, I'm sure! And drag and drop to desktop was such a convenient feature!

I have tried in Troubleshoot mode and behaviour is the same. I have tried in Windows Safe mode and behaviour for Save is the same; but drag and drop is completely disabled there (when I drag it, it shows a circle with line through icon).

Is it just me?

you have to delete over 5 times to get history and cookies to clear. Selecting "everything" never removes everything :( Used to be the best for privacy now its seemingly deceptive..

Hello Firefox, hello Mozilla, hello community. I have some very important suggestions. Some applications and programs have taken a great path, namely decentralized web technologies. The current internet has become an insecure environment despite all the extreme methods of protecting privacy through the Firefox browser and any other secure technology. I must tell you that keeping up with the times and helping develop the internet and the decentralized Web 3 is undoubtedly the greatest blessing that has come to us, privacy-conscious users and enthusiasts. For example, decentralized domains, decentralized web technologies, and blockchain, which caused a great rift in its early stages, have become almost like the atomic foundation of the current internet. We want decentralized privacy. Firefox and Mozilla, of course, are non-profit companies and organizations. We ask your esteemed team, engineers, and great scientists to help make the Firefox browser keep pace with the developments of decentralization and to help you balance the delicate line between decentralization and centralization of the internet and the World Wide Web. Now there is a rising browser, a brave browser, and this browser is truly bold. With the growth of users who love decentralization, we, as users, feel envious that our beloved browser is not using it. Decentralization means we want to access the web and decentralized networks through the Firefox browser. Thank you. Decentralized internet and privacy are two sides of the same coin.

I want to use Firefox on my foldable phone alongside several other apps. However, Firefox won't stay open in split-screen view; it only runs in full-screen mode and closes all other apps. That’s a real shame. If Firefox can't be adapted to work this way, I'll have to use a different browser.

I use a paid for subscription to Gemini AI. It often creates "visuals" for me apparently using JSON code. These do not show up at all. Moreover, the buttoms and other UI controls do not display well in Firefox. Is there a way to fix this?

Using the Firefox browser, I tried to copy an image and wasn't able to do so. Then I copied an image using another browser and wasn't able to paste it into a Facebook post on Firefox. Please tell me how to fix this. I can't copy/paste text either. Could the problem be my Mozilla VPN?

Hello, Today I performed a factory reset on my laptop (Windows 11). Before i did that, I checked if my Firefox account has synced all it's data, bookmarks, history etc. was checked and I pressed "sync" button. Then performed all of the actions connected with factory reset of a windows including partition removal. After that installed Firefox, logged in, but had to reset my password because it wasn't saved within my Bitwarden. Then synced and it turned out, that there is no saved bookmarks on my account. Is there a way to return my bookmarks?

The SEND button has vanished in Thunderbird. I don't recall changing anything or performing any updates, though my memory is getting to be unreliable.. In addition, the LINK button has vanished as well. I imagine I did or am doing something stupid and it's an easy fix, but what that might be totally escapes me..

I went to View and tool bars... Composition was already enabled. Alt and F10 did not reveal "Send." I tried to use the "Customize" menu and it did not include "Send." I do appreciate your help, even if everything suggested so far has not worked. My fear is that I may have to delete my Thunderbird in its entirety and re-install. If I do this, is there a way for me to save my address book? Is there still a way for me to get my Send back.

I may have to just settle using <Ctl> Enter on my keyboard. Bill
