I switched my default search engine from Google to Bing. As you can see in the attached screenshot, it should be searching with Bing. But for some reason the search results are always Google. How do I fix this? I haven't refreshed Firefox yet. I was hoping to avoid that.

According to this article I should be able to activate autofill credit card details in my country https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/credit-card-autofill But the option is no where to be found and in about:config I can see it is restricted to a few countries mine not being one. I can not change the list with countries either, actually I can not change anything nor search in about:config. I am running Firefox 140.0.4 (64-bit) EDIT I made a a master password, which then made it possible for me to edit in about:config. I added my country to the extension and now I can activate it.

It's really strange (I'm still trying to understand my relatively new Windows 11 laptop), bookmarks have been where I'd expect them for a few days, then this morning, it's as if Firefox has done some sort of clean/re-arrangement. The bookmarks had disappeared and there wasn't my usual array of sites available along the top. Then by clicking on a few things on the right (Firefox) 'most used' re-appeared, then later the toolbar is there on the right, I'd really like it back on the left And also I'd love to know whether I might have done something unconsciously which caused this.

I am working on a shopify POD store. I have printify up and running. They have a placeit extension that you can access the entire library of placeit mockups within your printify product. For some reason it does not seem to work within Firefox. I can get it to work within chrome, but not firefox. Feel free to contact me and help me figure it out. The pop up allows me to enter credentials, but not connect and download to printify.

For the past two evenings I was able to open the xfinity stream menu & channel lineup but could not open the "play" function on any channel that was selected from my search box or any selected channel from the lineup. Xfinity customer service had vague topics, nothing addressing this issue. Trying to determine if this is a comcast issue or an issue with Firefox. Help would be much appreciated.

I am using the Raindrop (raindrop.io) bookmark manager. It has been working fine on Firefox for years. However, with my recent update to Firefox 140, it is broken. Specifically, I can no longer use the highlighting function. It works fine on Chrome, but not on Firefox. I've seen several similar reports on Reddit's Firefox forum (r/firefox).

What to do? I don't want to have to switch to Chrome. Suggestions appreciated.

I had to reset Firefox because of a hack to my FB account. I've recreated all of the icons I use but Gmail won't add since Google doesn't think my desktop is one of my devices. I can receive Gmail if I use Chrome. I've tried reaching Google by leaving messages @ the Freemont office in Seattle but thought maybe Mozilla had an answer. Thanks for listening.
