How do I get to the PRINTER dialog box?
Finally figured it out.
I hate new versions of FIrefox. I hate playing hide-and-seek. That's why I lock out new versions. They're a damn nuisance.

I recently installed AdBlocker, but then a site I visit daily closes after it loads.
I uninstalled AdBlocker and the site still closes after it loads.
I assume the problem was from AdBlocker, but not really sure why this happens.

hello there!
i have had this persistent issue: when a site seems broken, i used to be able to try turning off Enhanced Tracking Protection, by
Clicking on the shield Icon to the left of the address bar, then Toggling the switch at the top of the panel.
But for the past week or two, the toggle button stays on and i canno toggle it off.
Also, a related issue, ie.the reason ive mos recently tried to do this, is so i can view the whole yelp review web pages. I used to be able to, but fo the pas few weeks a large portion of these pages hav blanks instead of reviews. I cannot even view the review i myself posted a week ago!
For example, this yelp business page link text
if you scroll down to beneath of where it says:
'''Ask the Community Ask a question Yelp users haven’t asked any questions yet about Precision Dentistry.'''
there should be text and photos of companies' reviews and info. But instead, all i ever see are grayed out empty boxes.
I have tried:
disabling all my add-ons,
private browing mode,
restarting firefox,
turning of all tracking protection from the main firefox preferences pane, rebooting my computer, and clearing all history for everything. I have also googled this up the yinyang but no one else seems to be having similar issues.
Any ideas? if you could please help with this issue i'd be very grateful!
Hello!
I was wondering if it would be possible for me to select Swagbucks as my Default Search Engine? If so, how?
Thanks!

Since FF, (in their infinite wisdom) once again screwed my computer up. I have lost all my bookmarks, all my apps (some of which I paid for), desktop gone, replaced with something I hate. This happened after the 100.0.2 update. I have tried to fix every thing for the pas few days with no success. I wonder if FF is going to pay me back for the paid apps I bought. This is a working computer and I need my files back. Also, I cannot find my restore button. I don't guess we need that anymore because big brother knows all oops, FF). PLEASE help.

Let's use password manager as an example:
Problem is step 4 breaks the whole process - when you perform CMD+Tab, extension window is closed. This behavior is consistent, but doesn't appear in other browsers. Is there any hidden setting perhaps? Searching lead to absolutely no results.

When I start typing URL's in Firefox, it will only ever suggest the URL so far as the top level domain. For instance, I frequently visit trakt.tv/dashboard. But when I type "tr" into the URL bar, Firefox only ever suggests trakt.tv - I have to manually press the forward arrow key and type in "/d" in order for it to autofill the rest. It doesn't matter how many time I type the full URL in or even the fact that I've deleted all history only visited trakt.tv/dashboard, Firefox will still only autofill trakt.tv
Is there some about:config setting I can change to make Firefox recognize and prioritize specific frequently visited URL's over just top level domains?

When I search "translate" into the address bar the first option is www.translate.com instead of just searching it on google (which is what I normally do). This happened after I searched the term and a little pop-up asked if I meant to go to the website instead. I accidentally clicked yes and do not know how to change it back. I would like to be able to type "translate" and have the google results show up first. Any help is greatly appreciated.
The defective Print Menu has come back again and all the switches to turn it off are having no effect. How do we get rid of it now?

Hello,
the newest update to version 97.0 was run automatically. Afterwards the new print preview appears although I have it disabeled in about:config (print.tab_modal.enabled --> false). I cannot get rid of it. It is very annoying as I cannot print my labels with that menu and always have to click once more to do so. Does anyone has a fix for this?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas

Firefox 97 installed itself , and now I have two print dialogs each time I go to print something. I have the system print dialog , and the Firefox print dialog. Does anyone one know a way to turn of the Firefox dialog in 97?
I fixed it in earlier versions by setting
print.tab_modal.enabled = false
...but in Firefox 97 it seems this no longer does the job.
Grateful for any advice.

In the last Firefox update, you changed the printing user interface AGAIN. The print.tab_modal.enabled=false config option no longer works, and I can't easily re-scale my page when I print. Is there a new option which restores the original behavior or is there some other remedy that will let me print using the Windows System dialogue?

Hi, how do we set Firefox 97 to use the os/system print dialog?
Before Firefox 97 we could change these settings in about:config:
print.tab_modal.enabled = false widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal = true
But they are both gone now.
There is now widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.print, which is an integer (2 by default).
But no matter what integer it is set to, we still don't get the os/system print dialog.
We are using Arch Linux, but we don't expect that to be of any importance -- after all, it worked before Firefox 97.
Thanks for your time :o)

When I put the pointer arrow on a tab to open it the tab background turns black and the type is white. It used to be the opposite and I want to change it back to white background black type. How do I do that? I do not like this change at all. This happened right after your new Firefox update also.

How can I restore my old system print dialog window as my default, instead of getting the horrible new print window that now appears? I have already set both the print.tab_modal.enabled preference and the app.normandy.startupRolloutPrefs.print.tab_modal.enabled preference to FALSE. This did NOT solve the problem! I knew updating Firefox to version 97 would be a huge mistake, and of course it was. I'm so irritated...

I just had a glitch with the latest update to 102b, FF insisted I had an old version and would only let me make a new profile. So I had to set up multi-account containers again. I have specific sites opening up in each container, and I'd like to make a copy to make sure that if my profile gets goofed up somehow, I can always easily restore my setup with multiaccount containers just the way I like it.
What do I need to copy, so that with a new profile, all I need to do is copy over some files?
In my profile folder, I see an Extensions folder, as well as an extensions.json and extensions-settings.json.
Are those the only folders/files I'd need to restore multi-account containers on a new profile?
I have thought of using FF Sync, but I keep reading that it is not intended for copying, so much as sharing across different devices, which is not something I'm interested in. Should I just let sync copy my extensions, and then sign back in, in the event I want to restore addons to a new profile?

I have 2 questions after the upgrade ( If that is what they call it). #1. Getting all my apps re-setup , I noticed that some were not showing up on the bar to the right of my search bar. #2. When I open FF it only opens with a half page on the left. This next jusy a polite general question. After the uproar about fvd suspension, why did FF feel the need to do it again? What I mean is why did they wipe out All my apps and deleted other programs I had BOUGHT and now having trouble getting downloaded again when they were working perfectly before 100? Are these programs also considered "Dangerous". Sorry. Could you give me an approved FF alternative to FVD and I don't mean this piece of garbage that is on your web page. You wanna throw something against the screen every time you look at it.; UGLY!!!!
