I am using Windows 11 Pro on a new desktop computer. When I launch Firefox 2 Windows open, 1 with New Tab and 1 with previous session Tabs. The previous sessions only works if I close Firefox via the dropdown menu or the he file menu. If I use then 'x' to close as I normally would I only get the 1 window with a single New Tab on next launch. I have toggle the open last session Tab, but it does not solve the issue. Thanks, Stephen.

I don't know why Firefox made my homepage so messy, with so many junk suggestions. It used to be a lot of thoughtful / interesting stuff about science / nature / health / politics / philosophy think-pieces and now it is all just "(unkown celebrity name) clashes with (council) over (something I don't care about)" or "(american president) shocks defense community with late night Truth Social Screed (BROUGHT TO YOU BY TABLOID PAYWALL)." Everything is suddenly UK only, and it is all from the Metro, the Mirror, the Independent or Sky News. I never, ever read any of that. I am sometimes in the UK, but not now. And my VPN is never set there.

I don't want to block whole themes - Health? I might be interested in some of that, but I don't need ten stories from the UK health sector gumming up my feed every day. Food? I used to occasionally get good recipes on the home page, but now it's a whole section of choco-banoffie protein smoothies and fried chicken, which I would never, ever click on or prepare. Money? All of these things have potentially interesting options, so I don't want to block them, but I'm definitely not interested in getting loads more of any of it.

Is there any way to go back to region neutral 'this is interesting' stuff? I find the current home page to be really unpleasant.

Firefox is too self-restricted in GPU memory usage

On iGPU hardware, default dedicated VRAM is usually 0.5GB and the maximum is 2GB.

On my laptop Firefox only use 0.48GB(dedicated VRAM)/0.2GB(shared VRAM) when I set VRAM to auto(512MB) in BIOS.

The screenshot is when I set dedicated VRAM to 2GB in BIOS, and you can see the VRAM usage has increased to 1GB(dedicated)/0.5GB(shared).

It seems Firefox is restrict itself to dedicated VRAM and not fully utilize the vast amount of shared GPU memory. This makes sense on dGPU hardware but not on iGPU hardware. On iGPU hardware, the negligible amount of dedicated GPU memory exists only for compatibility to legacy programs, and Firefox should allocate all it's GPU memory from the shared GPU memory pool.

I have followed all the steps for installing the VPN in Firefox, it says successfully installed and to go to the open panel to turn it on. However the open panel never appears, instead I get the pop up to try the VPN (see image). Have done this multiple times and am just going round in circles. I tried closing Firefox and re-opening but that made no difference. Please can anyone help?

MacOS Sequoia 15.7.7; Firefox 141.0.2

The "one sentence" in the heading states the problem. I am unable to use Firefox.

Firefox loads. It opens windows (I had fourteen open when I last used it successfully; I have many, many tabs). Then it removes each window from the screen. Firefox is in the Menu bar, but no windows are displayed. The windows still show when selecting Window in the menu bar. Selecting a window has no visible effect. File>New Window opens a new window, which works as expected. With one new window open, File>New Window does not open another.

Typing a few characters in the Address Bar opens a dropdown with a list of tabs, each with the affordance, Switch to Tab. Clicking on one takes down the list but does not open a window.

I would like, for a start, instructions on how to use Firefox starting afresh with no windows. First: having set aside the data that causes this problem. I suppose that might be simply a new profile.

I reinstalled Firefox and imported my bookmarks from a .json file that I made on 5/19/26. Firefox imported them but I can only open a handful of them. I can't even open Google or Yahoo mail. One time I got a message on a page that didn't open that says "Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker." I don't know how to disable JS and Google won't open so that I can find out how to do it. I have no ad blocker running.

Please let me know how this can be fixed.

ive been facing this issue since i dowloaded mozilla in my mac mini, and it just randomly decides to not play audio at all unless i shut all of the tab down and re start the entire browser which is very annoying because i am a video editor and i am working multiple tabs at a time and need audio always and since tabs can't restored in the order they were before closing this is sabotaging my work heavily, i love the browser overall but this specific ruins it because its a basic feature
