Hello. In the past two days I lose my tabs when I shut down Firefox. I used to be fine using the X at the top right and when I restarted the browser, all my tabs would still be there. Then they started going missing, so I started using the menu option to exit the browser. The tabs still went missing.

Then I noticed the square icon button on the extreme left and have discovered that Firefox has different windows, and that one of them (see attached image) has all my tabs in it, while the current window does not.

I cannot change Window 2 to be the current window. There is no obvious function on the page, nothing in settings and google is useless - I just get pages of discussion of how to tab between different apps on the desktop.

How do I make Window 2 the current window? See image.

Thank you

Is this something to be concerned about with future sites, or is this an unfortunate, isolated incident? One of my local utility companies is not going to be supporting the use of Firefox on their website any longer. Has anyone else seen anything like this on other sites, or has this been brought up elsewhere? Frankly I find it outrageous and is forcing me and others to use Chromium based browsers (aside from Safari which I don't use).

  • I emailed the company asking for an explanation, and I'm awaiting a reply.

I would share the URL for others to email and help press the company on the issue, but wasn't sure of the guidelines of the forum or if that was appropriate. I'm just irritated and venting sorry =/

Hi!

Is it possible to hide the address bar entirely when entering full screen. When I use Safari I have the option to hide everything except the page i am looking at, this makes reading manga really nice and distraction free.

Obviously I'd prefer to use Firefox so I was wondering if this is possible in settings or is a planned feature in the future.

Thank you for your help.

Firefox auto updated when I opened it today. Then when it opened, all that was on the screen was the menu (file edit view history bookmarks tools help), the "search or enter address" box, and in the upper right hand corner the words "private browsing" with the purple circle and eye eyeglasses icon. That's all. I have tried looking at my profile. It seems to still be there. This seems to be a problem with the Firefox software itself. I have re-downloaded the software three times, the last time I uninstalled Firefox from my laptop and totally reinstalled. Every time I get the same results. This almost blank screen. Let me be clear. There is no purple background, there is no Firefox icon, there are no tabs, there is no customized menu bar, there is no search box in the middle of the screen. I'm working on a Windows 10 laptop 64 bit. Please don't tell me to upgrade the Windows 11, the laptop won't take Windows 11. I get the same window whether I open the regular fire fox or the private browsing Firefox.

I had a background image for the new tab page that has suddenly stopped working, it just displays a white screen. I clicked the 'reset to default' button next to 'Wallpapers' on the new tab page to try to fix the problem but nothing happens. No wallpapers show up under that section either where it used to be when it was working. I've restarted Firefox and the same thing happens. I have not enabled any third party CSS wallpaper.

Apart from that, everything else is working as it should. I'm sort of a computer-idiot so if anyone could please use layman's terms it would be very much appreciated!

Ok, this is a weird one.

I can't load https://duckduckgo.com. It breaks search in a new tab, but I also can't visit it directly from the url. The tab simply does not load.

I've cleared cache, cookies, and extensions. I've refreshed Firefox more than once.

I can visit https://html.duckduckgo.com. I can visit https://lite.duckduckgo.com.

However! In a private window, I can visit https://duckduckgo.com It still breaks in a secondary normal window.

No other site appears to be broken.

On Windows 11 and a new computer, I ordered some items on Amazon yesterday. After that, I tried to log into my bank account but was blocked by "CloudFront," which appears to be used by AWS. I am not a member of AWS and do not know why this is happening. My bank told me it was "something in my computer," and that their website was up and running. On my older computer, I used Mozilla, and never encountered such a problem. I would appreciate directions and advice.

After the Dec 10 update to 133.0.3 (aarch64) on my MacBook Air macOS 15.1.1, all of the menu keystroke options are greyed out. Also, in Settings, Firefox is selected as the default browser, but the option is greyed out so that it is not possible to change. I've disabled all add-ons except my password program, tried troubleshooting mode, and restarted.
