How do I revert to basic windows formatting instead of these stupid color themes forced on in update?

I want my browser window to look like all my other windows. Why did you force these stupid themes on users? Why do developers always want to to tell/force others how they should use their computer?

COLOR CHANGES SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN OPTION, not a mandatory change. Realize YOU do not know how EVERYONE else wants to use their computer or have it look. Like, oh say, STANDARD WINDOWS formatting LIKE ALL MY OTHER WINDOWS. I LIKE IT THAT WAY. I don't care if you think that's boring, its not YOU using the computer.

SO - looking through all the searches MANY ARE REALLY UPSET, and there isn't an answer. SO What is the fix to get rid of the stupid themes? And don;t say "Oh, well maybe you will like nnnnn theme!" I KNOW what theme i want - I want it to match ALL MY OTHER WINDOWS. REALLY simple, yet your developers couldn't figure that out?

Or is only fix finally just switching to using chrome? Is that what you are trying to do?

FIX THIS.

I am trying to view a website but the site thinks that I am spam. Mozilla keeps me logged in to the site but I don't want that to happen. And because it happens the site thinks I am spam. But in Private Mode it lets me view the site. How do I fix it in Mozilla so I can view the site without being locked out? I want to erase the auto log in for the site but it is not listed anywhere here on my PC/Mozilla. I tried to contact their admin but I do not get replies from them. I don't even want or need an account there at the site, it's only a forum. this is the site.. https://www.plantedtank.net/

"You don't have permission to access "http://www.vitacost.com/" on this server. Reference #18.2a18df17.1666654394.409f377"

I DID see similar postings, but I didn't see where I could say "Me Too." So I'm posting separately.

This started in the past few days, the first with a website I've been using for 10 years. No problem with Chrome. I contacted their tech support. A couple of days later it worked okay till this morning (10/24/22). This evening it's off again -- after another software upgrade.

I'm now experiencing this with a second site, which I've also used for at least 10 years with no problems.

I read in a reply or two something about "profiles." I have no idea what this is or where to find them.

Why has Firefox been updated three or more times a month? Is the software not reliable? or Is the software poorly written? or You don't care about your users? For security purposes, we have antiviruses, antispam, etc., software, and firewalls. This is a lousy situation for users like me because we have been asking to update all the time, and it's interfering with the browser settings that get resettled every time there is an update, and I have to set them up again, wasting my time on it. Why can you not do it monthly like Microsoft, and why you don't tell us what is the update for? I would appreciate your answer to it before I decide to switch to another browser. Best regards.

I know this is not a big problem, but a couple weeks ago firefox updated the browser. one of things it did was changes colors to the top half of the page where the tool bars were. It defaulted to a nice blue which I liked and everything was fine. All of a sudden a few minutes ago it went to all white. I cant figure out how to change it back to where it was.

My email address is: abworldwide@icloud.com

I always use Firefox - last week opened Google Maps in Firefox- no problem - it worked fine - was in English - all good! This week - opened Google Maps - and all by itself there is an account of a person (not me) in Thai. I don't speak or understand Thai so I can't even try to get out of this persons account or eliminate it (not to mention - why is it there in the first place??? It just magically appeared???) By chance - I tried Google Maps in Safari (which I never use) - the account came up - NOT under this alien persons name - just regular Google Maps in English. I was able to utilize it - no problem.

This is extremely bizarre - I don't want to use Safari - but apparently Firefox has screwed up here (on it's own it has put this account into my machine - why?) - or possibly it's Google who screwed up which wouldn't be surprising. A person cannot contact Google - they are so arrogant they just have the attitude - we are Google - use our stuff - and the hell with you - nice!!! However - if Safari is just getting the regular Google Maps site - why is Firefox opening Google Maps in an alien account - like mentioned - I just went in like regularly and this alien account appeared.

I never use any of Googles services - I do have an OLD account there - but don’t even remember the user name or log-in. I don’t like their company - they are overbearing - dictatorial - and intrusive - so why bother with them. But no clue why this alien account would have been attached to my computer - not there one week - and then there the next out of the blue???

At any rate - is there any way to get rid of this alien account in my Firefox browser - I am not a computer wiz - but can follow instructions on how to do things easily. Maybe the Firefox cache needs to be cleared - I don’t know (?) - nor do I really know how to do that. Or why the cache would be storing information that shouldn’t be on my machine in the first place??? Thanks!
