Hi, I'm using a policie file to force a family-dns. Ive written the current code down below. Unfortunately this leaves the "manage exeption"-button open, where its possible to simply bypass the block for a specific site. Is there a way to lock this button in the policie file? Thank you very much. {

I use Firefox as my browser and have used Yahoo as my home page and browser for decades. Starting a few days ago, every time I type in the Yahoo search bar I get a Google search page result. I opened Bing and tried to search on their page and got the same result - Google. This is driving me crazy. I want my old Yahoo search back. I am at a loss as to how to fix this. I have looked at the Firefox settings and, of course, Yahoo is no longer listed. A shame. I don't know what to do at this point. Maybe the answer is to get rid of Firefox, but it has worked well for me for a long time. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

How do I stop Firefox from suggesting recently-visited commerce websites in the new tab url dropdown

This browser keeps doing this very annoying thing where it automatically pins recently visited commerce sites in a suggestions bar of a new tab's url. If I go delete the specific pinned page from my history, it will just grab a new page from the same website and pit that instead. For example, I recently visited chewy.com to purchase dog food. A page from Chewy became pinned in the dropdown for new tab urls. I deleted that page from my history. A different page from Chewy became pinned. This went on and on until I deleted *every single Chewy.com page from my history.* This is unwanted and frustrating behavior. Who does this help? I did my business on that website. I do not want to be told to go back and visit the site that wants my money. I know how to browse the internet. This is extremely annoying.

Dear Firefox.

I've now got 2 VPNs. One's called Proxy VeePN (that's how it spells it!) and the other one's your new one.

Proxy VeePN lets me use Pandora Music. Your one doesn't. Pandora can tell I'm in England on your one, it can't with Proxy VeePN (it thinks I'm in Switzerland, pretty sure.)

Why doesn't your one work with Pandora? I haven't tried it with anything else yet but then I really only use a VPN for Pandora Music anyway. Sometimes there's a couple of American games I play, but mainly Pandora. Why is it Proxy VeePN works with Pandora and yours doesn't?

Yours respectfully,

Chris, Windows 10 user cos I can't afford to buy a new computer that works with Windows 11 (I know there's a registry hack but I don't think this one's fast enough anyway, was designed for XP and tends to die a death with 10, let alone 11! Too slow. The computer, not its owner!)

Yours puzzledly,

Chris.

It's very tricky the clone a FF profile, so I want to avoid that. (If there is a SIMPLE way to clone a FF profile, that would suffice. I have found no such animal.)

I would like to start Firefox by invoking different UserChrome.CSS files.

Is that possible?

I am not intereted in RUNNING both these simultaneously.

yes, I realize I could go through renaming and unrenaming files before starting FF to achieve this. But, I am I'm looking for a method using native FF resources.

I have two desktop computers. both were fine. Now when I try to access a site i have gone to innumerable times it says "Blocked access". I can still get to the site on the other computer, but it is annoying to have to hop back & forth. I looked at the settings page, but I have no idea what I need to change to regain access.

I received an email that said my account would be closed in 7 days unless I signed in.

I leave my Mozilla tabs permanently open and use them every day. I tried to sign in as instructed and got an "unknown error" about 3 times. Then I was sent to a page talking about Windows 10. I have the extension; that's not a problem for me.

Closing Mozilla and possibly losing all those open tabs would be a BIG problem. Evidently I'm signed in now. I hope everything is OK with my Mozilla account.
