Firefox Community Forum

Just as the summary says, Used to have an icon that I put under the "hamburger" menu on the bookmarks toolbar that opened the bookmarks menu. Can't remember how I got it there. Can someone help me get it back.

Firefox fails to download any files. I've asked for help before, but did not receive a response. Files download well when using MS Edge. Using Windows 10 and latest version of Firefox. Help please.

Linux User So. I recently followed a Mozilla guide, previously posted, and something that I did, or changed, I now have a very annoying "profile" name in the title bar. Further to that, I now have an additional menu option called "Profiles", with --"profile --Add Profile

Manage Profiles

I have never had or seen these items, except when I've moved my profile from an old computer to a new computer, using the console of "firefox -P" command.

It is becoming very annoying as I only have one profile, and I don't want an more.

Question. How to I block the display of 'profile information' ? Thanks

I went into settings and searched passwords. then clicked onto saved passwords and tried removing what I thought was the password for a site. However when I log into the site the password continues to autofill. I'm wondering if I'm not getting to the right spot to deal with autofilling passwords?

Every time I use translate I need to select the destination language. Am I missing something because this is really annoying. It's quicker to screenshot and use a third party translator which is frankly mad.

The last automatic browser update (147.0.3 (aarch64)) has wiped off all changes I made to bookmarks and passwords from the past year.

How can I go back to a previous version and recover my details?

This browser version is terrible and looks exactly like Microsoft Edge which is not intuitive at all. I don't want to set up multiple personas, Its just me and the one computer?

Please help me. Kerri

[article] This article claims there is an "AI Controls" section in Settings. This is not found in v 147.03 (up to date) for Mac. Please let me know how to disable all AI in Firefox.

good morning,

I am having problems using a third-party website, playing chess, and one of the functions on their website is not available to me because I keep getting an error message. they have a forum on which I am discussing this issue with one of their Mod's, and he seems to be under the impression it has something to do with my Browser (Firefox 115.32.0esr) storing site data, and that the file in which this is stored has become corrupted in some way. I have no idea how he arrived at this conclusion but that is what he said.

I assured him that, "in Firefox, under <Privacy and Security>, in <Cookies and Site Data>, there is an option marked: "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed." this has a tick box next to it and on my computer this has been selected for about the last five or six years. the browser does not retain site data or cookies and deletes them each time it closes. when I follow the instructions you linked to, and click <Manage Data>, there is no data to manage. it does not exist."

however, he replied to this that: "I don’t think that setting deletes Local Storage, though I’m not 100% certain."

one observation I make is that when I open the <Cookies and Site Data> <Manage Data> dialogue, the websites I have visited in the current session are listed. this data therefore does exist, and there must therefore be a file, even if only temporarily, containing this data. my question is about what exactly happens to this file when I close the session.

1) is the file emptied of data, but still exists as a file.

or

2) is the file physically deleted so that it no longer exists.

if, after the session, I reopen the browser and select the <Clear Data> dialogue and click <Clear> does this simply empty the file or does it physically delete the file. if the file still exists, is there any way to ensure that it is physically deleted in order to confirm that it is not corrupted in some way?

thank you.
