I want to make list of sites where i can off pop-up search bar. On some sites you can use custom hot keys (like youtube), but hot keys won`t work because your keys registering to pop-up search bar instead site, so it will be good idea to make exclusion list, like in addon "Dark Reader".

I can't sign in on my Yahoo mail account. When i try to sign in i have a massage "Something went wrong We couldn't connect you. Please try again from a different device." On my other devices everything is OK. The problem appears on my desktop using windows 7 but on the same desktop the Yahoo mail work properly with Microsoft Edge. What i can do?

THE ISSUE: When opening Firefox, (Attachment #1 - below) appears. Seems to have nothing to do with any reality . . . as when I check in SETTINGS (Attachment #2 - below). 1. So, who's telling the truth? 2. How do I stop the popup (Attachment #1) from making it's nagging, inaccurate appearance?

Thank you / Nels

Can one change the colour of one firefox window to distinguish it from another firefox window? That would allow two people working on the same computer to use individual firefox windows and be able to quickly tell whether they are in the right window.

Hello, I had 2 open firefox windows on each of my monitors. I was doing work and at the end, I closed every window on my PC. When I came to the firefox windows I closed my "secondary" window first and it said "would you like to close 3 tabs" and I clicked yes. That is pretty normal, when you have 2 windows. Then I closed my "main" window the one that is always restoring when I open firefox and it also said "you're about to close 20 tabs". Once again, sometimes this happens, sometimes it doesn't, but it always knows to restore it, so to me it's normal. I put my pc to sleep and I the next morning I turn on the pc and it opens a blank homepage. I think nothing of it, so I go to try and restore it through the history and that doesn't work. I go online to look how to restore it and it says everything about backup on the profiles folder. I go there and it isn't showing the files that I had, just the ones that I used this morning. I try to change the firefox profile to see if that window is in another one it isn't. I had hopes that it wasn't erased because that morning when I opened a window and I had more than 1 tab it said to me "would you like to close 4 tabs" and that always happens when there is more than one window open. So in the end I abandoned to recover the tabs I just could do it from the history. My WHOLE history that I collected for the past 6 years is gone and all my cookies. I have Firefox Sync and it shows my history on my phone, but when I go to sync it, it still doesn't show. I need help with at least recovering all my history and cookies; Bonus points if you can try to recover my lost window. Thank you!

Hi! I recently had to reinstall Firefox. Logged into the same Mozilla account I've been using for several years, with pretty much the same config files I've been using since I switched to Linux, and suddenly--for the first time in at least a year--Firefox has (again) started trying to "fix" searches I put into the address bar that aren't prefaced with a search engine. How do I turn this off? (For example, if I go to the address bar and type in "cats" I get directed to a page like the first attached screenshot. If I type in "@google cats" I get directed to the second attached screenshot...)

I'm pretty sure I've disabled everything in prefs.js that relates to that. Um. Feature? But clearly I haven't been able to disable it yet! So.

I Have contacted NextDoor about this also, but in my original FF profile there was a login issue, after trying to reset my password, the NextDoor login screen comes up blank white. If I make another FF profile, It comes up with the NextDoor login screen, and if I start FF in troubleshooting mode NextDoor comes up and I can login. Any idea how to rectify this. I cleared cookies, cache and browser info, to no avail, even start up cache in the troubleshooting. Thank you for any help you may be able to provide.

Hi. I need to know how to make sure I can get to safe/legit (I have an account and a password that I set up myself) sites without getting blocked by Firefox all the time. Any recommendations? Thank you.

This morning this was at the top of my screen when I logged into my computer. "For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. Manage bookmarks..."

I did click on it however nothing happened or so I thought. I later go to the upper right hamburger and click on it and go to the bookmark tab only to find all my bookmarks are gone.

Can anyone tell me how to get them back since that is my quick access to my business sites? Is there a way to find them or are they just gone?

I cannot get the tab to stay out so I can take a screen shot. Sorry.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Please help me to open Thunderbird. All of my critical communication is there. Ecentral.com is my email. Thunderbird has not responded since a Windows update on 01/20/26. Should I uninstall that update?

When I try to download a statement from my bank I just get a blank page pop up. This used to work with Firefox and it works OK with Chrome. What has changed ...or is there a Firefox setting that is wrong?

Recently i added some bookmarks in a dedicated folder. Afterwards i don't see the bookmark in that folder. Hoever if i click on "Search bookmarks" and enter its name the bookmark is listed. If i then rightclick on it and select "Show in folder", the bookmark is shown in the correct folder. What is wrong ? Thanks

Hi everyone, for some time (~2weeks) I have the issue that I don't get any autofill-information in login screens.

I checked the relevant settings/passwords/"Fill usernames and passwords automatically" (OK) I deleted my ff profile and reinstalled ff. (whereas here it worded briefly) I disabled all plugins (only have "uBlock Origin" running at the moment)

I'm pretty puzzled, does anyone have any ideas? Best, Stefan
