I have a Snowflake add-on, which requires WebRTC for connections. But WebRTC is not permanently active in my Firefox browser. See image. I activate WebRTC by toggling the config variable media.peerconnection.enabled into 'true' and the add-on works. For some time, only! After a couple of days it is back to 'WebRTC not detected'. What is wrong?

I keep a lot of tabs open (~60) in any particular session - I find it's faster in this way to get back to a site.

About every six months or so, I lose *all* these tabs because of Firefox's inadequate session backup system. It only saves two or three total backups, some of which are completely out of date. But the worst scenario is when (1) some site pops up a new window; (2) I mistakenly close my main window before the new window; (3) I open this new saved window once or twice by accident, causing my 60-tab session backup to be overwritten.

Using a third-party session manager (I have tried all the well-known ones) can mitigate this problem, but doesn't really solve it because the re-opened sessions aren't quite in the same format as Firefox sessions and so lose information. In particular, I often lose each tab's icon as well as metadata for Tree Style Tab.

Could Mozilla please consider a more robust session backup system for Firefox? All it would take (I think) is to allow the user to choose the total number of backup sessions and the frequency at which a new session is added. Thank you!

Recently switched from Chrome and in Chrome I would open my "Other Bookmarks" folder and middle click a bunch of bookmarks which would open them up in a new tab without switching to that tab or closing the "Other bookmarks" folder.

Is there a way I can replicate this on Firefox? Because at the moment, middle clicking the bookmarks does nothing. This is not about the bookmarks bar at the top.

I wanted to completely disable TLS 1.3 when using Firefox, so I set security.tls.version.max to 3 (which corresponds to TLS 1.2). That worked up until I got version 140.0.4 installed - now it completely ignores this setting no matter what I set. I tried using cloudflare-ech.com website for test and it confirms that my browser uses TLS 1.3 with ECH. I also tried modifying security.tls.version.fallback-limit to 0 and security.tls.version.min to 0 to get a possible range of TLS 1.0-1.2, but it still uses TLS 1.3.

Application error: a client-side exception has occurred while loading (see the browser console for more information).

where is the browser console? how do i fix it never had an issue with until the last two days?

Clicking "bookmark current tab " does not offer dropdown menu to assign bookmark location. Clicking "bookmark current tab" places bookmark in last used bookmark folder. Workaround is to "edit bookmark" and assign desired location.

Hello Firefox Support Team,

I am facing an issue with Firefox Sync. I have logged in using the same Firefox account on my new device (or after reinstalling), but my bookmarks, saved passwords, and other synced data are not appearing.

I have tried signing in again, checked my internet connection, and confirmed that I am using the correct Firefox account. Despite this, nothing is syncing.

Please help me restore my synced data. I would really appreciate your support.

Thank you, Shubham Sen

How in the heck do you increase the size of the UI font? I have a 1440P monitor and the TINY size of the UI font makes it nearly impossible to read the text on the menu buttons, I have lean forward and squint to read it because they are so damn small. I can't find anything in the settings to make the UI text larger. It is as if some dummy hard coded the UI font size so it's impossible for the average person to find out how to change it. It makes no sense whatsoever.

And please don't tell me to increase the zoom in the Windows settings, because that screws up EVERYTHING else...

Another thing that is driving me crazy is how do you set it so that scrolling with the mouse wheel is smooth and not jerky? When i scroll with the mouse wheel, instead of smoothly moving the page up or down, it JERKS a couple of lines at a time. This is the only browser that it does that in. I have smooth scrolling ON in the mouse settings on my computer but for some reason, only Firefox is doing this.

I returned a phone that I had for 2 weeks (the phone was a Motorola G Stylus 2024, if that's even relevant), and while I did a factory reset on the phone before returning it, I am worried that my Firefox account information is still accessible through the device.

One reason why I am worried is because, when looking at synced windows open, *everything* that I had open on there was open and accessible through my account. Another reason that I am worried is because I did not log out on the device before returning it to my local Best Buy.

It'd probably be impossible to track down the exact phone that I had, but can anything be done? Should I redo my log-in password for Firefox (or even all the sites that I used on that phone) or am I worried over nothing?

Per title. If I go to bookmarks->bookmark this tab OR clicking the star icon in the address field I always want it to pop up and ask me where to save it, without having to remember to double click the star icon, or go edit bookmarks menu to move it.

This seems like a poor design, at least for me when more than 90% of the time I don't want it to be in the last used folder. I have been adding bookmarks for decades and it has always asked me where to save them, so muscle memory forgets to go back and edit the bookmark I just saved, and then later on I have to go back and change them all because they are never in the right folder.

I understand if I double click the star in the url it will allow me to change it, but when I'm busy I don't remember to click it again, or double click it, then my bookmark is lost and I have to go searching for it and edit it and it's a hassle.

Is there an about:config setting I've missed to re-enable this basic feature to reduce all the clicking?

I've tried browser.bookmarks.editDialog.showForNewBookmarks both false and true without any change to the behavior.

I cannot sign into my att/yahoo email while using Firefox. After calling AT&T they told me to use Microsoft Edge which I told them I would not! When trying to sign in I receive the error message "It's not you, It's us" try again. It is my belief that att is trying to coerce me to change browsers so they can spy on me

I often use the key combination Ctrl+Alt+X in Google Docs when on different devices but it doesn't function properly when instead it brings up the AI sidebar gadget. Removing the sidebar button doesn't really help and it's annoying. So how exactly do I turn off the key combination for the sidebar?

I have a folder with many bookmarks in it, and when I want to open multiple links in the folder but not ALL of them, I have to keep opening the bookmarks folder after middle clicking each link 1 at a time. I can't open the entire folder - there are 100+ and say I want to open 10.

Is there a way to keep the bookmark folder open while I open each link in new tabs?

Thanks!

It appears that I have a zombie Firefox browser running because when I close the browser using the top right 'X' button, the Firefox processes are still running when I check Task Manager.

If I end the Firefox task and reopen Firefox the first attempt seems to be stuck crashing because there's no crash log, but I can see in the task manager there's a crashhelper. A second attempt opens just fine, but the issue with that is my previously opened browsers are gone even with the setting to reopen them is enabled.

I've tried reinstalling, disabling my extensions, and updating Java, but none of these resolve the issue.
