When I open Robert Reich's substack article of the day, I'm finding that whenever the comments, the word "Trump" is replaced by "Mr. Bully". One can see the original by opening repost. If it is one of my own comments I can open Edit and see the original. I asked Substack support about it and they say it isn't them and to check with my browser. OK, Firefox, is this a new "feature" of Firefox or someone hacking Firefox. Would you please look into this for me.

I have downloaded the mozilla extension " screen recorder". After giving all permissions , the logo of this extension is not showing on my screen .SO, I am not able to use this extension facility. Please solve it. And also I have been blocked for accessing this extension owner' s website. THANK YOU. OM PRAKASH GUPTA

PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR Error code: PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

This error occurs constantly on Firefox. I've had to go to Chrome to connect. I want to use Firefox, but not if it keeps doing this.

Recently, I am unable to open PDF's on Firefox. When I go to another browser and access the same site (such as a bank) I am able to view the PDF. I have tried some of the suggestions regarding extensions etc, but nothing seems to work. Is there a solution? Thanks, SVS

I keep constantly crashing, multiple times. Here are my latest crash IDs:

Why is my browser stating that it is managed by my organisation.

I have never used it fr work and it is my personal laptop. Please kindly provide steps to remove this

Firefox is default browser. Have used McAfee Truekey for years with no issues. It has now disappeared from browser. Reloaded the app, and McAfee website tells me to activate it. How do I do this/ should I do this?

When i try to log in to Gyazo it goes to a web page that says

"Checking your browser before accessing gyazo.com ... Click here if you are not automatically redirected after 5 seconds."

I can log in via chrome and i can log in via firefox on my ipad. I looked at my malwarebytes and its not blocked there. So i know my acc is good. I know it will log in with firefox on my ipad. just not my Win11 Desktop Firefox.

The past two days Firefox has not been displaying PDFs properly, turning 2 out of 14 pages sideways. I restarted my computer but no change. The PDFs display beautifully in Edge.

As title. Installed the latest update as soon as i came out. I get the "Welcome to Firefox" tab and the 2nd tab "Firefox Privacy Notice" opened.

The 1st "Welcome" tab, has the box and buttons asking me to import old setting and all that jazz. I have down in quiet a few times and nothing is taken root. I have went through the process of installing all my old addons and extensions, I am not sure how many times, as I use them every time I open my browser to watch Twitch or Youtube, Beyond 20, and what have you. And of course it keeps resetting my toolbar and the bookmarks and settings on my homepage.

I thought at first, it might be buggy and after a day or two it would get fixed an updated. But alas, nothing thus far and this is forcing me to use other craptastic browsers I rather not even have installed on my system.

I have refreshed Firefox a time or two, I uninstalled and reinstalled, but I am afraid to completely wipe it out, as I do not want to lose my bookmarks, passwords, and other saved information, that I probably should not have saved but I do because my memory is "teh suck".

I would appreciate any insight on how tor resolve this issue.

Thanks!

Hi,

I know that Google's doing everything to push everyone to use their spy software Chrome, but now youtube is really slow (15 seconds to stop a video when I click on the video, same to start it, 10 seconds to open a new dongle for youtube, and roughly 5 seconds waiting in others services).

Also, some others website work very badly or sometime not working at all with Firefox, why ? I have Ublock on Firefox too

I came back to Firefox for my privacy but if 35% of websites not work with it, not great. Have you an idea how to solve this problem ?

Thank you,

Matt

Chrome seamlessly harmonizes with the PowerToys FancyZones feature in Windows 11. In Chrome, I can drag a tab out of a browser window, and instantly snap it into a FancyZone. I can also quickly arrange multiple separate Chrome windows into FancyZones without issue.

Firefox's interaction with FancyZones is not good. When I drag a tab out of a window, it doesn't allow me to snap it into a FancyZone. I first need to release left click, allowing the tab's new window to appear, then I can snap that window into a FancyZone.

The biggest occurs when I have multiple Firefox windows open and snap one of them into a FancyZone. Often, one of the open Firefox windows will spontaneously shrink itself in size. When I try to manually resize the window back to normal, it shrinks further and further, until it is an invisible sliver. The only solution when this occurs is to fully restart Firefox.

It seems strange that Firefox has such poor compatibility with FancyZones, which is growing in popularity along with other productivity tools in PowerToys. Wondering if anyone else has experienced these issues, if there is any workaround, or if there is a fix being worked on.

Recently Firefox has been randomly crashing the past 3 weeks multiple times, Is anyone else having this odd issue ? I'll be watching a stream or youtube video and bam out of no where the Browser goes black for like 20 or 30 seconds then crashes. I sent in about 3 crash reports and wondering if the Firefox team is aware of this issue.
