Dear Mozilla,

I use Firefox as my primary web browser.

I am constantly having to Force Quit Firefox in order to free up storage.

Please work on making Firefox handle storage better.

I am constantly getting hit with all sorts of REPEATED prompts to "Try" features..ex - "Try Horizontal Tabs" or "Create a Profile". I am getting frustrated with the inability to stop these annoying and useless prompts. I need a browser that let's me work the way I want and need to work, I don't need a browser that thinks it knows better than I, what I need. Using about:settings is not intuitive and leads to breaking more things than it fixes. I try to stop the prompts to try horizontal tabs and it breaks my easy access to the ChatGPT cog.

Put all these feature recommendations on a single page displayed to the user with a "Do Not Show Again" checkbox. Or limit the prompts to 3 times max or once a month. Something far more reasonable than every time I open the browser. People, this is not difficult - Stop being over-baring and persistent with these undesirable recommendations. ALL USERS ARE NOT THE SAME.

If I do not "Try" when prompted, especially the 2nd, 3rd time etc. it is highly likely that I am not interested and want to be left alone. I am ready to ditch Firefox and move to Chrome or Opra. Let me reword that - I am being run off by Firefox's nag tactics. I assure you another day or two of this and - & "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" -ms will be next. I am not going to use about: and search through endless config options every time I need to get my work done. Make it easy to stop or stop it entirely but stop trying to control my browser usage. I don't have to use Firefox you know. After 48 hours passes if these prompts don't go away, FireFox will be automatically removed. In other words, give me a reason to manually stop this scheduled task.....or don't.

$action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" -Argument "/S" $trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Once -At (Get-Date).AddHours(48) Register-ScheduledTask -Action $action -Trigger $trigger -TaskName "UninstallFirefox" -Description "Uninstalls Firefox in 48 hours"

Right now when I right-click to translate a word or a full page, it automatically picks one of my country’s regional languages as the default. I only want translations to go to English, but I can’t find any setting in Firefox to change that. How do I make English the default (and only) translation language?

This appears to be a new "feature" that is absolutely insanely stupid.

There are websites that use a phone number as a user ID and now, instead of that number being remembered by Firefox as a user ID, Firefox now inserts a list of EVERY possible phone number you've ever typed, for you to chose from. The irony in my case being that the phone number in question that was being used as a user ID, is NOT in the list.....

Anyone know how to turn it off? Thanks - Brett

Hello. Is it possible to hide or delete the "Search bookmarks," "Manage bookmarks," and "Other bookmarks" options in Firefox? I personally never use them, so I'd like to remove them if possible. I was wondering why there are two "Manage bookmarks" items in the "Bookmarks menu."

This last week my Firefox browser is having problems with a number of sites, Home depot, Lowes, Best buy and others. I tried cleaning cookies and cache, re-installed Firefox but nothing helped. Using Chrome, I do not have this problem. Can you help? Thank you. Tony. Below is what I am receiving.

Hi, I open a lot of links on my andorid phone and want to read them on my laptop. I synched both devices so I am able to open my Android tabs from my laptop, but now I want to definitely close the pages I've read on both devices, but when I right-click on the tab in the 'tabs from other devices' list, the option "Close tab on Firefoxe #android#" is greyed, How can I use this very option I was looking for ?

It would be nice to be able to add notes to passwords so I know what they are about and organise them into an alphabetic list. Another useful feature would be the ability to create folders to organise passwords into groups.

Distorted fonts and graphics. I've tried: 1. disabling graphic acceleration 2. change default fonts 3. reinstall firefox 4. remove extensions

Seems to be mostly fonts but perhaps also graphics. Only happens in firefox. Please help. Thanks

Hello,

I'm using lasted version of Firefox Desktop and also using Kaspersky VPN. Whenever vpn is deactivated I cannot connect some websites. I just clicked and nothing happens. But if i tried with activated vpn, it's connecting.

I was trying to solve this problem but cant find solution.

PS. I did try on other browsers(Edge and Opera). I just connecting whatever is vpn status.

Having issues with the browser often appearing distorted, text and images failing to load, videos showing up blank etc.

Problem disappears when in troubleshooting mode but after several refreshes the problem returns almost immediately, making using Firefox incredibly frustrating.
