Firefox always redownloads images, and always with a different request than the one displaying them. This frequently causes downloads to fail, or repeats large downloads. I have had this issue for years now. When I attemp to download an image, do not redownload it. Instead, save what was already downloaded. If you insist on redownloading it, then use the same request as was used to display it. There have been so many images I can see but that fail to download. It's incredibly frustrating and I was hoping someone would fix it but no one did so today I speak up. This affects desktop and mobile

I constantly get pop ups for AI i don't want and the AI makes firefox slower. I don't see a use in AI integration with Firefox and I would like to disable it. How can i do this?

Updated Firefox today. Lost all bookmarks,history and downloads. No icon present in header tool bar. Tried search and recovery using all available information listed under 'HELP'. NO success. Past profile storage locations are non-existent. Did a restore point on computer/ no help. I'm using windows 7 so did an upgrade as noted in Firefox notice.

I've been using Firefox for years and would hate to change. Hope recovery is possible.

Thank you, David

Not able to open yahoo mail in Firefox Multi-Account Containers tab. firefox version 142.0.1. Windows 10. Works with GMail. When a container tab is opened and you enter "Mail.yahoo.com", firefox tab alternates between (i) login.yahoo.com/?.src=ym&pspid=xxxxxxx and (ii) mail.yahoo.com/d

I was on the ESR channel and after the recent updates to 142.01 or 141 the ESR is missing from the about Firefox. I had got the tab groups option a few updates back and liked it. This latest update changed how a tab group collapses, instead of showing only the tab group name and collapsing all the tabs it leaves one open wasting space when I have several other tabs open. At least I don't see any sign of the annoying AI junk getting in the way yet. I thought you had a choice to stay on the ESR channel according to this link and others. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-support-windows-10-end-support I'll probably be forced to update to Windows 11 to do my taxes next year but I thought at least I could stay on the ESR channel to avoid new features getting in the way.

My primary google account's language is set to english. If I search normally, then the results are shown in english. If I open a private window and search in google, the results will try to be in the regional english and google asks if I want to switch to english every time.

I am trying to set up a new computer. I have customized the homepage and new windows to a preferred page, however I cannot customize the new tab settings. The only options for a new tab are either Firefox homepage or blank page. I am trying to find a way to have my preferred homepage open when I open a new tab.

Hello, I run Windows 11 on home computer with Firefox browser and everything was smooth for last 3 months. Just a few days ago, every time I make a search in Google, I get this “ I am no a robot “ box that I have to clean by clicking different pictures to prove that I am a human…

This is the message I get in French… Hoping someone can help because I prefer using Fire Fox than Edge… Tks guys

I have these printers.

"HP LaserJet M109-M112" (the Windows default) "HP LaserJet 1020"

Regardless of the value of print.sav_print_settings, the first print dialog after starting Firefox shows "HP LaserJet 1020".

If I manually put "HP LaserJet M109-M112" (no quotes) in print_printer, it reverts to "HP LaserJet 1020" the next time Firefox starts.

How do I make "HP LaserJet M109-M112" Firefox's default? Thanks.

Why is the icon of the bookmark constantly disappearing in the bookmark of PC world? I have repeatedly found that when I open the PC world page via this bookmark and some posts that this icon suddenly disappeared. The font of the bookmark remains and the sign is also functional but the icon is missing. With the DB browser I can restore the icon. But until the next opening of the PC world side, the game starts all over again. In Firefox 142.01 this is the only process. All other icons are stable. The icon always remains visible in my second browser Edge. I asked PC world. And they replied that everything is fine with their side. I therefore ask you to check that once. I don't understand why this is only the case with a PC world. I thank you in advance for a timely answer. Foto !! Manfred Günther

I use Adobe a lot to open pdf forms from business accounts online. Recently, when I click on the downloaded pdf, they will auto-open now, but I have to completely quit out of Adobe before a second pdf can be opened.

I thought it might be an Adobe issue, but the same thing happened with a different file type that does not use Adobe. I tried to open a downloaded picture (jpg) and could only open one, then close out of preview before opening a second picture. It is definitely a problem with the Firefox downloads and how they are being processed.

Trying to redeem an Amazon Gift card to my Amazon account and it is asking me for my PIN for Firefox/Mozilla which I don't have...won't take my password or my Microsoft PIN. Now what?

Is it safe to clear the Firefox(Android version) app data and caches from the device settings? I do clear both really often to free up space(some times even multiple times in a day), but i don't know if it can give problems... I don't care about my history and logins being lost since its expected, but i don't want the app to glitch, not updating or maybe lose security features or ending up with corrupted files or anything like that. Also, with the new update (142.0.1) a new look for the menu was added, i updated the app but i saw no difference, in the past when doing the clearing a new Firefox menu showed up, changes between clears(also, Firefox is my default browser, if it can help; also, could rebooting my phone after clearing data and caches give some problems?), i hope its not because of my frequent clears. Thanks to anyone who can help me figure this out, if any more info are needed i will be happy to tell you more about it. I don't know if im being paranoid or anything but better safe than sorry.

Hello Mozilla. Recently my wife and I have had a new experience with our bookmarks. When we display a list of bookmarks, part of the list runs off the page, so, we cannot see the complete list.

In the past, when we would request this list, if it was too long to display downward, it would then automatically shift upward, so that the entire list could be seen.

Has this feature been dropped or altered in anyway? Is there anything we can do to regain the feature?

We are using Ubuntu 24.04

Thanks. Curt

As of a two days ago, passkey functionality in Firefox is not working (v142.0.1 on MacOS 15.6.1). I have a passkey setup with Google, and when I sign in and the popup should appear for the passkey, it no longer does. This also causes Firefox to become unresponsive and must be force-quit. Any solutions?

Hi guys, Had Firefox as network default browser for decades. Now I have a problem with my DNS pihole filter, firefox just goes around it. I've read countless articles on how to stop this, I've tried DoH 0 and DoH 5, I've placed a file policies.json in a distribution folder. I've tied everything I can find on the net. Nothing and I do mean nothing, had the slightest effect. Firefox goes around whatever I try.

I've spent many, many hours on this please tell me how to kill this, I'm forced to use another browser at the moment, which is painful.

version 142.0.1 64bit W11.

Thank you Bob.
