Firefox Community Forum

Hi folks, I am new here. I wonder if someone could help me solve a new problem which may or may not have anything to do with Firefox itself. Let me explain: a month ago or so, I was running Firefox, and my HP laptop, 64-bit, running Win11, told me I needed to run a new update from Microsoft for my Windows. I forgot that I was running Firefox, and started the update. I live on the West coast of Florida, where there is a lot of lightning... So, right in the middle of the Windows update, lightning took out cable and internet, stopping (interrupting) the update download. The whole neighborhood was affected. Later, when internet service was restored, I re-started the Windows update. Now here's the weird thing: every minute or so, no matter what is or is not running, even before I log into my desktop with my PIN, all of a sudden an old image from a previous Firefox session, complete with tabs, pops up. It then cycles through more images, until I hit the enter button, or tap the pad, or hit escape, exiting the image. It even goes away temporarily if I move the cursor, so trying to X out does not work. A little later, it pops back up. I'm working on a novel, and it is frustrating, because this interruption derails my thought train, complete with caboose. Also, one of the images (static) is my bank page. This spooks me... Please help, someone -- anyone? Ahead of time, thank you!

I couldn't find a proper category for this. Why does Mozilla make it hard to figure out where to report a bug? And then once you find where you need to be, they force you to create an additional login (something EVERYBODY wants to do more than necessary) to actually report the bug.

Yay, just what I want to waste time doing. I was hoping I could create another useless account somewhere with a new username and password to fill up my password manager with more junk. Thanks Mozilla!

Brought to you by the UI designer who thought it would be a good idea to remove all semblance of separation or delineation between individual tabs. This guy probably defiantly refuses to shave a break in the unibrow he got teased for mercilessly in high school.

Can Firefox add an option on the UI chatbot tab for Copilot (MIcrosoft's AI assistant)? I use it all the time but it would be perfect if i could put it in the UI chatbot tab!

I have been on Mozilla for 10 plus years. So now your asking and treating me like a new customer. I just want to get on and conduct my business.. So I can't do that, so I guess it's time to move on.

I just found out the hard way that trying to add troubleshooting information to a question can cause one to lose whatever was written as clicking "try these manual steps" opens in the same tab and erases everything one has written.

"Troubleshooting Information (optional): We can't automatically get your browser's troubleshooting data, please try these manual steps."

Please add a note that clicking on "try these manual steps" will cause you to lose everything you have typed in previously - so right click and click "Open link in new tab"

(using FF 142.0.1 on a Windows 11 laptop)

Please create a new version of the browser app that supports the ability to use FileSystemAPI on directories, this is essential for working with a BeatBuddy project and SD cards that are saved on my computer using the online editor.

Why won't Mozilla post a phone number or e-mail address that I can access with questions or help? Waiting for the "community" to reply is not what I'm looking for - I need help NOW!!!
