All of my addons are disabled and won't re-enable!

They all say "addon name" could not be verified for use in Nightly and has been disabled. See attachment clipboard00.jpg

If I try to install an addon from the recommended extensions settings (for example "return youtube dislike ") I get a message bubble stating "The Addon downloaded from this site could not be installed because it appears to be corrupt. {OK!}" See attachment clipboard01.jpg

The message above about addons appearing to be corrupt happens if I go to any of my current addon pages and try to redownload them.

Is there a way to show bookmarks on particular sites without showing them all the time?

My use case is that I have a plugin's url set as my home page and new tab page and would like to be able to see my bookmarks when I open a new tab but not when I'm on other tabs.

Bonus question; is there a way to have my new tabs open to that plugin's url but also have the url bar empty for browsing?

Thanks in advance for any help with either of these I imagine specific questions.

I'm viewing a pdf that seems to be made of stacked images. While viewing this pdf in firefox it has these black lines between images, as seen in attachment, these change slightly as I zoom in. These lines do not appear when viewing the pdf in brave, see other attachment.

Also, this happens both on my desktop and laptop that have very different firefox setups.

How can I fix this without fixing the pdf?

How could I even fix the pdf?

Hello! I started encountering this problem as I updated my OS to windows 11. I had eset nod antivirus, but uninstalling it nothing changed. Tried to change MTU cache size through CMD. Changed different DNSes Tried to disable all protection settings in browser and in windows settings. Deleted all extensions. NOTHING helped except clearing cache of the browser, but this is fixing problem only before first browser restart. Other browser on laptop works normally without any issues.

I used to have an occasional sound problem with FF, usually felt when YT clips could not be heard any more. I mean to remember that it could be fixed (until next time) by restarting the file explorer somewhere in Task Manager - not a convincing solution but one I could live with.

Today, there's a new situation. Again, trigger was the missing YT sound in FF - not in fx Edge, and that the Task Manager trick didn't work (or maybe I restarted the file manager in the wrong tab?). Looking for a solution, I happened to see that the YT mute function in the FF tabs seems to be gone. However, other sounds are affected likewise. Also, I can't see them in Edge either. After various restarts (or maybe something else I did, instigated by the various instructions I found?), the sound is back.

However, while continuing to pursue possible solutions, I also happened to find that my browser is being 'administered by my organisation' - what ever that means (see two annexes). Who did that? I would say, this is not something I did, I would prefer to see it gone. But how? Will the other browsers (which I keep as a spare, and that I'm hardly familiar with) be likewise affected?

This is an equation with too many unknowns for my limited knowledge, are such effects known? Would there be an approved way-out for it?


PS I have checked https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1412934 especially the message posted by lazizakhmedov1014, and do not see this to apply to me - short of a reinstall - FYI

Still waiting for an answer to the above question. Why does the page jump back to the top when I want to open a link in a new tab? The link is halfway down a page but when I do a right/left click it jumps and invariably opens the link a few articles above the actual article I want to read. This had been happening for months now and nobody has bother to give a solution.

Websites not loading correct, links do nothing when clicked on. the pictures included are Firefox with broken links and webpage (https://www.mbusa.com/en/home) and two of edge with correctly functioning page and drop down link.

I have tried clearing cache, refreshing Firefox and reinstalling Firefox not sure why this just started happening today, but this also occurs on other websites as well; Marriott will let me right click and open in new tab but not let me click on the link. The Mercedes-Benz (photos) will not even let me open in new tab. any suggestions would be most grateful, tyia

Unfortunately, my workflow involves dealing with multiple PDF files per day. However, for some reason, Firefox's behavior with regards to PDF files is inconsistent.

  • If I set the Action to Save File, Firefox downloads all PDF files, including those that it can normally open in the browser when I click a link (e.g. files hosted in servers that allow direct access to PDF files). As such, my Downloads folder is cluttered and needs to be cleaned regularly to delete the PDF files that were downloaded even if I could have opened them in the browser.
  • If I set the Action to Open in Firefox, Firefox can now open those hosted PDF files in the browser instead of downloading them to disk. However, every time I download a file, Firefox then opens the file in Firefox after downloading, even though I need to edit the PDF file somewhere else.

Would it be possible to set Firefox's behavior so that it does BOTH of these things:

  1. Open PDF files that can be opened in the browser without downloading in Firefox without needing to be downloaded, AND
  2. Do not open downloaded PDF files in Firefox after downloading is complete.
