Firefox Support Forum

Just before protection against ads expired, the icon's "X" went black. Now that I've renewed, it has not changed the "X" on the shield to white indicating renewal.

tell me why when I start Firefox my task manager shows anywhere from 14 to 18 of Firefox running and my system is so bogged down I can't work. I've tried waiting thinking it was possibly updating but it didn't change. not a lot of sense to use a browser that eats up my time and system and won't let me work. I have run my Norton scans, and utility program, but nothing seems to help. And its not the cookies.

Sky is a satellite television firm in the UK it also does a Mobile Phone System and Broadband Internet access.They also do email run by Yahoo. It is nothing like Skype. Now and again on the email it tells me the internet has dropped while I am using it, The PC says its still connected and the modem lights are on. If I then use Google Chrome its OK. I am not using wifi as I am now wired. Although yahoo email says "not connected" other sites are working OK. This fault is Firefox and before the last maybe 6 updates it was OK. I have been with Sky about 25 years and been using Monzilla about at least 10 years. I always delete the cookies each day.

i have my broswer set to open all pdf files in adobe. It used to open in adobe and create a tmp file that i couldnt see, but they were randomly deleted. Not only do the files not get deleted any more (i have to delete them manually, it is now creating files on my desktop. (i have not changed any settings on my pc) This is a serious problem as i use pdf files all day. By the time i am done for the day, my desktop is littered with hundreds of pdf files that i have to delete. I have my settings set to use Adobe to open my pdf files. I do not have it set to save ANY files. How do i stop this from happening.

Every time I work on the local environment a lot of my extensions go crazy on localhost, throwing enormous amount of errors. This makes console barely readable. Is there a way to disable messages thrown by extensions in the developer tools of Firefox Developer Edition?

Similar to this in Chrome with "Selected context only": https://superuser.com/a/1346827

Thanks.

Hi, yesterday my computer randomly restarted and how my firefox browser has changed and does not have any of my passcodes or tool bar icons. Can you help me figure out what has happend? thank you.

Trying to bookmark a pdf, it's on the same location across my devices, but my devices have different usernames, so I added "%userprofile%" to the filepath so that it opens on any device. The issue is that when I enter this into the Bookmark URL bar, it automatically sticks "25" next to the % characters, which makes the bookmark unusable.

"C:\Users\%userprofile%\Documents\example.pdf" automatically becomes "file:///C:/Users/%25userprofile%25/Documents/example.pdf"

Also, as I just discovered now when I pasted this URL into this post, a second "25" is inserted, becoming: "file:///C:/Users/%2525userprofile%2525/Documents/example.pdf"

Firefox desktop is not showing bold. The mobile app works though. I do have the setting allowing sites to choose their own fonts enabled. The site in particular is a WordPress.org site and I am not going to go through each instance of and change it to a minimum of 800 weight. Any news on an update with regards to this problem?

this problem occurred yesterday ;was fixed and then reoccurred. Can't delete unwanted messages, send, reply, star, go back on message read page but will go back on message board.

About every month or so Firefox decides to delete my login info and i have to relog everywhere again.

While this is not a critical issue, its a very annoying one.

My cookie settings are on standard, and the "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" square is unticked. I use Dashlane for my passwords but ive used it for a long time before on mozilla and other browsers and i've never had issues with it.

Okay, so 5 months ago, I cleaned up my bookmarks. I had a ton, but now looking back, there were some that I really would've liked to keep. So I'm would like to know if there would be a way to restore deleted bookmarks from that long ago.

So I downloaded Firefox and logged in expecting my bookmarks to carry over after I "sync'd" it, however the did not. So I went to my old pc and did the export bookmarks thing and imported it to the new pc.

Now.. I have all my bookmarks and everything appears great. Except whenever I open a link from say my work it opens a Mozilla window that doesn't have my bookmarks. When I try to combine the windows It doesn't let me. I am also scared of losing access to the Mozilla with my bookmarks as I work from home using those. (the desktop shortcut to Mozilla opens the one without all my work)

In the attached screenshot things to note, the bookmark bar available on left isn't there on the right. Additionally in the taskbar (bottom) it shows Mozilla in two distinctly separate icons. When two Mozilla windows are open, they share the same icon on the taskbar, these do not, which leads me to believe I have two incompatible versions existing next to each other.

BitDefender antivirus is showing me this message too many times "firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to hkkp.waiver-serious.net. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since websites must renew their certificates with a certification authority to stay current, and outdated security certificates represent a risk." How can I solve this problem? I did a full scan and my computer is clean
