new addons do not appear in toolbar, >> dropdown, or Overflow area.

wife's computer. Updated firefox to 115.25.0esr and it lost her Profile so I went to about:profiles and figured out which one to make default. It found her history, bookmarks, addons BUT reverted to the previous 115.24.0esr. (another problem there - should I try to update it again?)

After adding some more addons, I see they are active in the Preferences, but icons do not appear anywhere.

a website I'm browsing contains a Google map which should show the location of all of its customers, but they won't show up when I try and look at it. I just get a map of the world without any customer location pins. How can I see the customers? (Using mac mini).

Hi ! I see I have the ability to have the AI chatbot in the vertical sidebar, I wonder if I'm able to have the AI chatbot button in the top toolbar instead ?

Thanks in advance !

Greetings,

I'm having issues using Firefox as my primary browser ever since I was recently asked to setup passkey login at work. I'm on Windows 10. This is a virtual passkey that uses my work mobile device as the associated passkey device, which was setup using Microsoft Authenticator. When I attempt to login to my account using Firefox, I am prompted with the message pictured in the attached image (it wants me to insert a USB passkey). However, if I switch my default browser to Edge/Chrome and attempt the same thing, then I do not have this issue. Instead, it allows me to use my phone to snap a QR code and login that way.

Any idea how I can stop Firefox from forcefully asking for a hardware passkey?

Cheers,

Certain colours have changed after an update to version 140.0. Most noticeable (and barely readable for me) is the unvisited textlink colour: it was light grey but is now suddenly light blue/cyan? See screenshot with Google Search as example. How can I change this back? The only place in FF settings for colours is under Contrast settings but that's unusable: it overrides settings of sites, altering their layout. Strangely enough there are no General settings to alter colours?

Hello Firefox Support team,

This has been an issue sins ever when I use a direct link to either a YT Channel or a Twitch Channel the Sound 100% never works. The sound plays for 1 frame and then just goes missing. when I open the Twitch homepage link with a Bookmark the issue does not occur.

p.s this happen with every audio source that I open with a link from my Bookmark. Youtube, Twitter, Twitch, Netflix ... tis super annoying and removes the use of Bookmarks for me. Reloading the site does not fix it, I have to open a new tab for it to work but only when I dont use any Bookmarks. Removing and creating new Bookmarks also does not change anything.

I hope someone can help me.

So I was looking at Event Viewer and I have noticed that Firefox Default Browser Agent shows error with EventID: 5, aKa Access Denied.

I tried to google a bit, but couldnt find anything useful, or at least for me.

Then I went to about:config in FF and I have noticed that even if I didnt personally made any edits, when I clicked show only modified preferences, it shows A LOT.

So it makes me to wonder what exactly is this error and why my config have so many modified preferences, even if I didnt modify any >.>

I have just spent a long time looking for PDFs I really need and when I closed Firefox it deleted every single PDF in my downloads folder (including ones that weren't downloaded during this session)

The PDFs weren't just opened as a website in Firefox, I've downloaded all of them as permanent files and just opened them in Firefox to confirm they work.

I have set my browser to automatically delete download history so I can't redownload them that way (and I would prefer to keep this setting on), however I have never set Firefox to automatically delete any kind of downloaded file (I don't know if this is even available in settings).

I have also checked my antivirus quarantine just in case, but it is empty so I doubt anything was deleted due to possibility of malware.

Is there any way to prevent Firefox from doing this and is there any way I could restore the files. At this point, I can't even begin to remember everything that I may have lost due to this bug and searching and downloading everything manually again may take me days.

Hi,

I work in a technical profession where we have large amounts of GUI-configurable equipment. Firefox was my go-to browser to configure and maintain this equipment. Up until today, when version 140 installed unexpectedly.

There is no https in this equipment, no certificates, no certificate server, no DNS. Just a LAN cable, peer to peer, to use the browser as a GUI to manage the equipment. There is no need for high level security either, since there is no internet.

Now how do I do this? In previous versions of Firefox it was possible to override the security warning and proceed anyway, which is what we did. Now we don't get the option to override, and it does not appear there is any way to change this behavior in the settings. This heavy handed nanny stuff does not sit well with me and it has made Firefox 140 essentially useless for my purposes. I've rolled back to a previous version of Firefox for now.

Hi there, My bookmarks have disappeared. I cannot recall any bookmarks. How do I retrieve them? Also, when I drag a tab to the menu bar, it will not be accepted and open another page. regards Alan

It seems there is no process in place for checking if recommended add-ons are still worthy of being recommended.

Easy Youtube Video Downloader Express is a prime example. It hasn't worked for a long time, was last updated in April 2024, and the developer no long responds to any form of communication. And yet it still one of your recommended add-ons. How can this be? Not only should it not be recommended, it should be removed.

Why can't I login into my paypal account in Firefox?????,but if I use Google Chrome,it is not a problem Also On Prime Video,each time I log in(through Firefox) I keep receiving a message about the Browser Is not able to receive HD Videos
