Firefox Community Forum

I have an issue where the following operations with the "new" profile manager don't work: - setting up a new profile (about:newprofile in the new profile is just blank) (a new profile gets created though) - deleting a profile (about:newprofile is just blank) - editing any profile that is not the original profile (about:editprofile is just blank) (works with the original profile) - the select profile interface from the account or menu button is blank when opening it from any profile that is not the original profile

What works tho is calling about:profilemanager from any profile. From there any profile can be selected and switched to.

I'm using the Bazzite (Linux distro that is Fedora based). I'm fairly new to Linux so that could be a issue, the problem was there from the get-go though and since Firefox was preinstalled I don't believe I could've messed up much.

Firefox version is 147.0.4 Bazzite version is 43.20260211.0 (Kinoite)

Reboot doesn't fix these issues. Uninstalled Firefox with deleting user data, installed it again and same behavior appears again.

I also tried installing a Firefox fork (Waterfox). It had the same issues.

I would appreciate any help and would be willing to share more detailed date if it helps somebody help me.

The attached screenshots mostly show the UI that is not working as expected.

As long as my computer doesn't go to sleep Im fine. If it does, when i open firefox, i must refresh to be able to find my bookmarks and passwords. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance! Micha

Firefox was my default browser until I had to install Microsoft 365, which I think is repeatedly blocking my attempt to restore Firefox as my default browser. Every time I try to download it stops two-thirds of the way through.

My IT department did a reinstallation of my laptop and previously to that checked the sync in firefox so everything were ok. now when logged in i am missing everything. can you please help me get back all my bookmarks. how shall i do ?

Noticed the bookmarks error message at the top of the browser page then looked to find they were gone, no troubleshooting methods have worked and I don't seem to have any backup files. Bookmark manager is blank and there are no selectable options?

streaming sites that load on chrome, opera and brave do not load on firefox since the last update, the throbber is the only thing that loads. Running win 11 pro on a powerspec computer, 32 gig ram, onboard graphics, intel core I9 processor 12th gen I believe, has been checked and not one which had the issues

Firefox is not responding. Also various apps are not showing/responding. Apps I use every day have disappeared and when I go into the App Store and search for them they are not even listed.

Hi,

I’ve recently noticed that after a Firefox update, the browser has become very slow and unresponsive whenever I open multiple tabs, around 5–10. Before this update, I could open many tabs without any noticeable lag.

Now, new tabs take a long time to load, scrolling within open tabs feels choppy, and sometimes Firefox freezes for a few seconds before responding again.

I’ve already tried restarting Firefox, disabling extensions one by one, and clearing the cache, but none of these steps have improved the performance. I’m using Windows 10 and the latest version of Firefox.

Could anyone suggest what settings or troubleshooting steps I can try to fix this slowdown?

HI Since the last update from Firefox. I am experiencing frequent and multiple crashes. so much so I have beenusing google chrome as alternative browser. It would appear to me that the "new" version is unstable. = Version 147.0.4 (64bit).

Do I go back the the previous version? and if so where is it.

Hello, I am facing a strange issue while using Firefox browser. When I try to play LetterBoxed NYT, the game sometimes gets stuck on the loading screen or loads very slowly. The same website works fine on other browsers like Chrome and also on Android devices, so I’m not sure if this is a browser compatibility issue or something related to caching, cookies, or browser settings.

I have already tried clearing cache, disabling extensions, and updating Firefox to the latest version, but the issue still appears occasionally. Could this be related to browser security settings, DNS resolution, or performance optimization? Please guide me on what settings I should check or change in Firefox to make this web game run smoothly.

When trying to log into my bank, I get the following message: "Bad Request: Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand". I have tried to clear cookies, to no avail.

Every time I try to use my camera or microphone on some websites from on firefox it says can't detect camera or microphone? It doesn't show up with the 'allow this website to access your camera/ microphone' pop up it does with other websites. I went into permissions and manually changed it myself and it said it still couldn't detect the camera/ microphone

I have a weekly appointment in google meet. My main browser is firefox, and when I try to join there is no video available.

I have checked that my laptop camera works in general, and that google meet has working video on another browser, so the issue seems to be with the permissions google meet has for firefox.

Every time I join the meeting, there is the pop up which asks if I want to allow the use of my camera and microphone. I always click allow. Recently, even after doing this I dont have video footage.

The meet page does not say that my camera is off.
