Firefox Support Forum

after updating I can no longer see pages of open tabs, just the one I'm on. If I go to customize toolbar I can see the old open tab view, but this is awful for me. I want the old behavior back

This is in the address bar when I open a new window; chrome://branding/locale/browserconfig.properties This is the message I get and have to open a new tab: File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/browser/omni.ja!/chrome/en-US/locale/branding/browserconfig.properties.

   Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
   Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

Why do I keep getting this instead of a fresh new window? It is annoying to have to open a new tab after a new window.

The shift+esc keyboard shortcut now opens the Process Manager....

How do I change this shortcut? Or get rid of it altogether? Every time I shift+esc the process manager opens and it's just unnecessary.

So, the system requirements system requirements for Firefox 108.x desktop only mention macOS 10.12 (High Sierra) through macOS 12 (Monterey)

Is Firefox lacking support for the latest version of macOS 13 (macOS Ventura?)

With the update from 107.1 to 108.0 my default search engine was reset from DuckDuckGo to Google. This happened several times before, about once a year. Extremely annoying. I'm using the only browser not based on chromium for a reason.

Is this due to some agreement between Google and Mozilla?

I really wish I could pay directly for a browser. I'm using it 8-10 hrs each day.

Hi all,

All my saved passwords are lost. I use v. 108.0 on Macbook Os 12.4

I do have Avast, and I have read about AVG bug that was previously. I've checked and I do not have any logins.json.corrups

I do not have multiple profiles (only one). 6 months ago I downloaded the Firefox app on iPhone and then created an Firefox account. This is now my profile that I'm using. No matter if I'm logged in on the profile or logged out, I can't access my saved passwords.

Please help me. I've been trying to solve this for months now.

About 6 weeks or so ago, I began finding messages intermittently on my screen when I got up in the morning. It would state that Firefox had crashed and needed to be restarted or closed. It would transmit error information first in either case. Firefox has sent updates a few times since, and if I had the browser closed it would update upon being opened. The original problem is still there and now I have an additional problem. The first problem was a nuisance but the second is not acceptable. My email service is fastmail which I have used for many years. Sometimes I will open an email and need to click to go to another location. My problem is that I will click to do so and I get left with a blank screen and I never arrive where i am trying to go. It never reports any kind of an error. If I use Microsoft Edge everything executes as it should. That tells me there is no problem with the emails. the email provider, and takes the problem back to Firefox. When you sent an update you may have reset my settings. It seems like it sees opening the new page I am going to is likened to blocking a popup window. I am going to guess it is treating every page I attempt to open via the page I am on like a popup window. This problem is somewhat inconsistent. Sometimes it executes just fine. I get 80 to 100 emails each day and this feature not working properly is very aggravating. Example: I open a Kohls ad email or a Sam's Club ad email and click on the object I am interested in. However, all I get is a blank page and no errors reported. It may or may not execute properly if I go directly to the retailer and not through the email service. Yet it works fine if I use Microsoft Edge for the same procedure in the same email or even if I go to the retailer's webpage directly rather than through an email. Same results, Edge works fine, Firefox doesn't work. Help me out here please.

fedex.com has broken my browser!

I have a FedEx account for my business, but I no longer use it. However, I also receive packages from FedEx from time to time. For reasons that cannot be explained by anyone at FedEx, my Firefox browser will not allow me to create a new FedEx account to manage my deliveries. In other words, after I enter my new username & password, the FedEx website comes back with a failure message with words to the effect that, "This didn't work, please refresh your page."

I called FedEx tech support & learned they are now totally incompetent. The only solution that was offered was "Clear all of your browser history". I didn't fall for that - I did however delete all history with "fedex" in the link. I also removed all 31 cookies associated with fedex.com. Then, I re-started the browser, and tried again:

Upon summoning the fedex.com login page, the login information was pre-filled with the userid & password for my old, unused business account! How does this happen without cookies or history? Where is fedex.com getting this data? Is it stored on my browser - or does fedex.com have some nefarious scheme whereby they're using my computer id or IP or???

I need to delete every shred of data in my browser that is associated with FedEx - how do I do this?

Hello,

Whenever I open a document on Microsoft Word online, the formatting of tables is incomplete or missing. However, this is not the case with original documents. I've attached a screenshot of an example of the issue (the gray area should also have the lines like the rest of the table). Is there anything I can do?

Thanks! Taylor

The old profile was on a Windows 8 installation. I have a complete copy of the original C-drive. I want to recover the profile to my current Linux OS. Or, if not possible, to a Windows 10 OS. I'm mainly looking for my saved passwords.

(I have the same question about Chromium browser btw.)

After updating to Firefox 108, it's no longer possible to use gesture extensions on new tabs set to open "Blank page" here: Tools > Settings > Home > New Windows and Tabs > New tabs: "Blank page".

However, when manually browsing to about:blank the page still allows gestures. E.g. to close the tab, or navigate away from it.

Viewing the page source of the "Blank page", Firefox 108 does not actually open about:blank when set to "Blank page" but instead opens about:newtab.

Either about:newtab used to allow extensions to run and no longer does, or the behavior has changed so that it now opens about:newtab instead of about:blank when setting Firefox to open new tabs in "Blank page".

This breaks work flows of using a gesture to open a new tab and gestures to navigate away from it or close it.

I randomly lose my pinned tabs and previous sessions in Firefox. It is really frustrating and it is causing me to lose time and work.

Everything works fine for month or so and then suddenly all is lost. No recently closed tabs, no recently closed windows, no pinned tabs, nothing! All I can do is go to History and try to find them there. This keeps happening for years it seams and I see that there are other having the same issues reported but they are being ignored.

Is this ever going to be even considered to be a bug?

I will probably migrate to Edge since I used it on my work PC and never had this issue.

Not sure why, but the tabs suddenly moved to the bottom of my screen. How do I get them back to the top? Also, once I get the tabs back up top, how do I get back the plus sign to add a new tab?

(I'm on Firefox 108.0 in Windows 10 21H2. I believe the problem started when 108 loaded.)

Just upgraded to firefox 108 and it has broken just about everything. No tabs. No real toolbar. No back button. No switching from fullscreen to windowed. Nothing works properly. The hamburger menu and minimized are on the same button. One of the toolbars constantly switches from arrow to plus symbol creating havoc on my screen. Can't watch any video because of this. Running Manjaro Linux.

How do I set a Custom URL fora new tab under: "Settings - Home - New Tabs and Windows"?

Under "Home Page and Windows", there is a "Custom URL" option, but NOT under "New Tab". There is NO "Custom URL" under the drop-down list, only "Firefox Home (Default)" or "Blank Page".

I want to be able to set the default URL Home page when opening a new "tab" (as well as when I create a new window. For example, when opening a new tab, I want to set the default Home page for the new tab to be Google.com.

I am running a PC with Windows 10 and the latest level of Firefox.
