Firefox Support Forum

Firefox used to open the bookmarks to the left showing all the bookmarks, ever since that last update not the go right and aren't even the bookmarks I want, how do I change it back

Just today a web based TV show has stopped playing, the circle spins for a moment (as if it was loading) the circle then just vanishes and nothing plays.

I am running Win 11, I have successfully had the video play in Edge and Brave.

Firefox however is being stubborn and refuses to play

Hello Before I reset my PC some months ago, I almost never had to Login to sites, as the kept me logged in. This no longer happens, and now I frequently have to Login to eg. my Google account which needs third party autho and all sorts. It is rather annoying having to Login to Google every time I close the Window.

I do not have this setting on: "delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" I do have this setting on: "Ask to save logins and passwords for web sites"

It does save my Password and autofill, which makes it easier. But it is still annoying, that I have to login to everything every time.

I have tried reinstalling Firefox, to no avail.

Please Help

I wish to remove the ugly looking line between my custom home button and the first tab. You can find that on the top left. I already have userChrome.css set up and I found no help on the r/FirefoxCSS subreddit.

My userChrome.css code:

```

root {

--toolbar-field-focus-border-color: transparent !important; --toolbarbutton-inner-padding: 10px !important; --toolbarbutton-border-radius: 2em !important; --urlbar-container-padding: 0px !important; }

1. nav-bar {

box-shadow: none; }

1. urlbar {

padding: 8px !important; }

1. urlbar-background {

background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255) !important; border-radius: 16px !important; box-shadow: rgb(230, 230, 230) 0px 0px 5px 0px !important; }

.tab-background { border-radius: 16px !important; box-shadow: rgb(225, 225, 225) 0px 1px 5px 0px !important; }

.tabbrowser-tab .close-icon{ border-radius: 2em !important; margin-right: 0px !important; }

.tabbrowser-tab .close-icon:hover { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05) !important; outline: none !important; }

1. tabs-newtab-button:hover > .toolbarbutton-icon {

background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.25) !important; border-radius: 2em !important; }

1. PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item {

padding: 5px; margin: 25px; }

1. navigator-toolbox { border: none !important;}

1. PersonalToolbar {

box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0px 1px 4px !important; } ```

For anyone who can be of EXTRA help, I wish to also fully round the search bar in my "about:home" which you can see is underneath the FireFox logo. I want to add my own custom border radius of "2em" and remove the blue outline when selected.

Hello, My Antivirus sofware (GData Internet security) showed the attached message (in German) two times today. It says in English something like:

It was tried to access an infected archive

Virus: Trojan.GenericKD.71195125 (Engine A) File: 0B3C6E11DBBC160A3AAFC100C8BAB878F5EE0C Directory: C:\Users\re-ge\AppData\Local\Mozilla Firef Process: firefox.exe

The line ending with "Firef" may indicate that lines are truncated.

Any suggestion what to do ? Reinhard

Windows 10 64bit pc. After factory reset and reinstall of Firefox, 2 extensions are enabled but the menu bar won't allow them. These worked OK before the reset.

Troubleshooting within Firefox won't work because it disables the extensions.

The messages from Extensions say "Can't read and change data on this site" The extensions are enabled (turned on).

The 2 extensions are Malwarebytes Browser Guard and Video DownloadHelper I am using DuckDuckGo as my browser. I tried switching to Google, but same problem.

I am having a significant issue with firefox draining my battery. I used chrome up until the new year and then switched over to firefox from chrome. Overall I love firefox so much more. The format is way more pleasing. I love how it easily signs me back into everything, BUT IT DRAINS MY COMPUTER SO MUCH. Like i used to have an 8hour + battery span my laptop neverrr died. Now I get through MAX 2 hours of full use before needing to charge, and maybe 4 hours just having it at school but not using it.

I thought my dell suddenly started crashing, ran all these tests, and then I realized the only change was that I had started using Firefox... So sad I think I am going to have to leave it.

I read a lot of articles and did everything suggested. my graphics is webreader , i turned on all the suggested features, i have 2 extensions , the only thing I could maybe think of was that I use an animated theme so maybe that was killing the battery, but like if I can't use my theme than whats the point.

i had to reset my laptop due to certain reasons ..but i didnt back up things .as i re-downloaded firefox and logged in with my old account ..i didn't get me logg-in passwords for various sites back

search jumps to address bar. I NEED THIS TO STOP IT !!! DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS IS NOT A GREAT THING for ‘Firefox'. Give us a click button to turn this unwanted or unneeded automatic feature. Please don't offer workaround goto edit deep function programing 'work with me' options, just turn it OFF.

Smaller adblocker ultimate advertising icon appears on most screens. It's annoying and typically in the way. I tried adblocker once but disabled it months ago and removed it today. The ad for adblocker ultimate still appears in the lower corner of most pages. The icon and the Expanded flag is (opened) are both attached below.

I frequently manage cookies in Settings. In the Privacy and Security page of Settings, I click on the Manage Data button to delete unwanted cookies. It works, no problems.

My issue is that, when I re-size the window that lists current cookies, that window size does not hold. The next time I access Manage Data the window is back to its original, small size.

Up until v121, the window has retained the size it was previously.

I have the same problem on my laptop using Firefox v115x. It used to keep the same size window, but a few months ago stopped that behavior and always starts with the small-sized window.

It is not the worst problem to have, but I keep track of multiple cookies on a regular basis. Leaving the window the same (larger) size would be nice.

It also would be nice for that window to retain the view last used. I usually check cookies that were most recently used, but the window has always defaulted to the largest cache size for cookies.

These are minor niggles, but it would be nice if they could be addressed one day.

Attached is a screenshot of my extensions. These did not seem to interfere with Firefox functions before.

i was watching youtube when this happened here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o25FuR0eUAs the error "your browser cannot play this video"

With my previous browsers--such as Chrome and Brave--I could automatically get into key sites without signing in every time. I thought this was due to cookies that my login passcodes. In the case of Google, it is by far the most challenging. Despite having a gmail account since early 2003, and using Google regularly since the '90s, it persists in asking me lots of questions and texting codes, etc.

My situation with Firefox is not working smoothly as it was when I used it for many years about a decade ago. I've already imported such browser data from these sites.

Can you help? Otherwise, I'll move on to Safari again.

Thanks,

Eckhart

I am having a problem with my Firefox homepage. There are several things going on like the red, yellow and green dots on the left side of the menu change to light dark. Some of My Bookmarks appears twice and one was added. I did a Refresh and troubleshooting but to see if my home page would go back to normal but it did not. I think I have a bug that is causing these changes on my Mozilla Browser. I need to get the browser back to normal.

Been using Firefox for years. Also reading Foxnews. Starting yesterday I cannot post any comments at the site. I can go to Edge and all works fine, so there is something with Firefox that is conflicting with Foxnews. At first I was not able to even read articles but removed all Addon's and that has been fixed--even after reinstalling all Addon's I can still read articles. I log into my Fox account and the webpage reflects that but when I try to post a comment it says I must sign in to post, yet I am signed in! However, I go ahead and follow the links to sign in (check e-mail/click sign in to Fox etc.), ultimately it tells me I'm now signed in. But when I go back to the comment section it still says I must sign in to post but I am signed in. Besides removing Addon's I also tried removing the FF browser (Win 10 recommended a refresh instead of uninstall so I did that). No help, I'm thinking whatever is causing the conflict when refreshing FF the sync simply puts the conflict back! I'm still requested to sign in when I am signed in! As stated earlier my Fox account in MS Edge works fine.

I reset my pc and don't remember password I have logins that I don't have saved anywhere else on this account so I don't wanna reset it normally I only was able to login with login through google and I can prove I actually own the account in anyway other then password cause i changed it a bit ago and just can't think of the whole thing

I am an experienced Firefox Add-On user.

I have installed Firefox on a new build Windows (10) computer. Only 4 of my 8 installed Add-Ons will show on the Task Bar

This is not a problem on my two other Windows machines that share the same Mozilla account for Bookmarks & Passwords. (Other machines are also 4K displays).

I have uninstalled then reinstalled Firefox several times on the new machine, nothing seems to work.

I suspect there is a simple fix, but it eludes me.

Suggestions?
