since the last redevelopment of Mozilla Firefox I am having trouble exiting both my private and non private browser. I want to uninstall Firefox and re install it to see if that gets rid of the gremlins.

I've finally moved from desire to concept/name for a website I want to start. In the old days I had a couple of different sites through EFF in its infancy when it furnished this service and I knew the administrator personally. I then used a couple of different services such as GoDaddy (have no current domains registered). Can anyone direct me to a) a good place to go, b) where I should be asking this question instead of here ??
I'm asking here because my computer guru of 30 years (Gale Rhoades) has passed away and I can't ask her anymore. She trusted Mozilla 100%. I am going to need help with docking(?), and with some kind of formatting/template system. The site will be a place for me to share my life hacks as late-life autistic with massive experience in low/cost-effective DIY health, gardening, fermentations, household management, companion animal management, crafty solutions, and all around life hacks, not just for autistics but for anyone. I know this is niche, but I just would like to get my knowledge base out of my head because I really do have a lot to share. If it could possibly generate some right-livelihood inputs that would be great but that's not my main goal. My main goal is I will die and everything I know will be lost, and what I know has been hard won and worth making available. I've worked with computers from the mainframe days, but I've never learned code.
All thoughts welcome on how I might proceed. Again, please direct me to a good place to ask/discuss.
Best wishes, --Victoria

The problem that Google Maps goes black after a few seconds was reported here a couple of times.
I have a variation of the problem in that it appears only when I connect my laptop (Lenovo P15 with Nvidia Quadro RTX 3000) to an external monitor. After connecting, the only way to get Google Maps to work again is to close Firefox and restart it. Closing and reopening the tab or force-reloading is not sufficient.

When I go to YouTube channels I have saved, I usually click "videos" and it goes right to the videos and the latest ones are shown first with 3 across.
Now when I go to my saved channels, there are only 2 rows, not 3. When I click on "videos" it shows older videos and not very many. I have to click on "live" to get the rest of the videos to show including the latest ones.
I have no idea how to get it to go back. As far as I know, I haven't changed any settings. I really hate the new view and only seeing older videos and only a handful at that.
If it wasn't for the extension YouTube Watchmarker, I would probably only use Safari. I love being able to see which videos I have already watched via this extension. It's a big help.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Recently the V-like icon/button appeared at the right-hand end of the top line of my Firefox windows. This Tab Search could be invaluable to some, but I have no need for it. If I start to get too many tabs I just use another window. However, I click on it constantly when I intend to minimize the window. I have been clicking on the - icon/button in EVERY WINDOWS APPLICATION since Windows began, and as it has ALWAYS been the LEFT-MOST item in the UPPER RIGHT CORNER I haven't had to think about it in decades. But now it isn't the left-most, that is now tab search.
Please, please, PLEASE provide a configuration option to remove Tab Search from the top line.
Thanks!

HI! I am a Firefox user for many years, but I am encountering now problems I never had. First, before the opening of an address I get a message "Transferring data from assets.adobedtm.com" and it takes a while before I access the site. Problem 2: in Firefox settings I see a message: "your browser is being managed by your organization" But I do not belong to any organization!!! Furthermore I see a link to "ImportEnterpriseRoots" classified as "active" and "true". What the hell is this? I hope you can help solve those problems. In the meantime I will use Edge...

I am having the identical problem as this person was.
https://support.mozilla.org/hsb/questions/1370443
I'm using Windows 11, Firefox 106.0.3. I have already selected "always ask." I do not see any way I can change the thing that says "Downloads." I see that there is a suggested fix, and I also see that an apparently knowledgeable person has advised against using that fix.
This is very basic browser functionality, and being unable to save to particular folders adversely affects my productivity. Is this issue being dealt with? What problems can I expect to occur in the future if I make the suggested fix?
Thanks in advance.

So, I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I recently tried setting up XEMU and that had some display UI issues for me. I don't know if that has anything to do with it but after I tried setting it up all the text on Firefox is too big. The toolbars, menus, settings etc. look okay but on webpages the text is way too big. I've tried about:config settings, changing my Windows resolution, and other things, but nothing has fixed my issue.

I have Firefox 50.1.0 on openSUSE 13.1 Linux (KDE desktop). This is the last update from openSUSE, but is now deprecated by some websites. I am reluctant to download a recent Firefox version without knowing in advance that it will work under SUSE 13.1. I am familiar with 13.1 and reluctant to update that, merely to run a new version of Firefox, as it will create complications with my multi-boot system, which includes a MSDOS 6 partition for legacy software (it took me ages to get GRUB configured to load that reliably and I'm not sure I could do it again).
Please advise what is the latest version of Firefox that will run under my elderly version of Linux and how to obtain and install it (I am not an expert Linux command line user). I am using Firefox 106.0.3 under Windows 7 to send this to you (multi-boot system), because I could not sign up with 50.1.0.

Dear sir ,
My firefox browser keeps crashing 7-10 times everyday . Sometimes it forces me to reset firefox then login back to my google accounts and extensions . It is very frustrating to login everyday specially google accounts as it requires 2-Step verification .
I feel nostalgic using firefox because I have been using firefox since my childhood started from 10 years ago when I first start browsing in the internet . I have not moved to any other browsers ever since . It might found to be a bit funny that I grew some emotions using this great browser and I believe the issue can be fixed .
If the crashing issue is not fixed then I am afraid that I may move to using other browsers and that looks a lot easier than facing the issue .
I am using firefox for windows on a 64bit windows 11 pro . System info screenshot will be added with this report . Please consider my situation in a bit serious matter and hopefully I will get your response asap .

Since your upgrade from 106.0.2 I am unable to correctly play video windows within FF pages. I am using this browser in Linux Mint 21 and the image attached shows a page (Left hand window) where the video playback progress indicator is pushed to the extreme right hand side of the video progress bar. I have lost the ability to start/stop and stop the video playback using the space bar on my keyboard.
Even in full troubleshooting mode, where all extensions etc are disabled, the problem persists. I have checked in another browser (Chromium) and the video controls work with the space bar and the video progress time tracks across the progress bar as the video plays, so I know it is not a specific web site issue, rather it is specifically a FF display issue.
I am sorry if I have not included more information as this is my first question / plea for support .

Hi, when I log into my bank I give my account number and then a password. I have told firefox not to remember my password but it is remembering the bank account number which automatically pops up when I am on the banks log in page. How do I stop this? Also when I signed up for this firefox help it asked for an email address and all my email addresses poped up for me to chose from. I didn't like this either. Appreciate any help. If these features can't be turned off whats the last version I can use that won't do this? cheers Neil

I have two idle tabs (no videos or other active components) open and according to Task Manager on my PC, it says Firefox is using 6 GB of memory. Unfathomably high number.
The Firefox Process Manager says the GPU (whatever that is) is using 5 GB of memory.
I did all the usual quick fixes (Restart, update, restart PC, refresh, disable add ons, etc.)
Please help. Why is 2 tabs none of which is a video tab using 6 GB of memory?

Hello, I recently had to reinstall windows due to a virus. However, I'm unsure how to open or sync my old profile into Firefox. I can see the old tabs on my PC before I reinstalled windows, but I can't see my bookmarks or re-open that session. I tried to use the launch profile in new browser, but it just gives my new profile from this new installation.
