Hello Firefox Support (long-ass time user) and I wanna give a big shout out to EVERYBODY who's contributed to this kick-ass browser. You are all unsung hero's and preservers of privacy and human rights. THANK YOU! Just wondering if I'm wrong but: 1. After I save a group of Tabs into a Folder then open them all later the stars are not filled in like when I save individual Tabs 2. Is it possible to Remove a Bookmark in the group of Tabs with no filled in stars? 3. If it is not possible do you have any alternative suggestions to grant the ability to save a bunch of tabs, opening the whole group later and deleting which ones I don't want to keep while perusing through them?

Best regards everyone and thanks again. Love you ALL!

When I try to open a link using Mac Mail "open link behind mail," the new tab in Firefox opens in the foreground. ChatGPT tells me this is a Firefox related issue and is giving me a bunch of about:config alterations to try, but they don't work.

Is ChatGPT leading me astray, hallucinating?

Is there a Firefox fix? This is a new problem. Is it a bug? Thanks.

One of my jobs requires me to download work related documents on my personal pc. I would like to assign the website of the platform we use to download those files in a specific folder so i could delete them easily afterwards. Are there any plans to add such a feature to the browser? Is there a way to do it already? (without having to use the "always ask" option) Thanks in advance. Cheers from Uruguay

OK when I restart firefox, or have been using it for a while, I might decide that I'd like to close a TAB or maybe even a heap of them.

Trouble is that someone has decided that when people close a TAB, the one to the right, automatically reloads.

I don't want to reload a TAB I am not currently using, I just want to close the TAB or TABS, that I am no longer using.

Stop doing this really retarded "Oh we think this is a good idea to automate things - you don't want, don't need and have not asked for, with the typical NO choose to switch it on, and NO off switch".

Seriously provide the option to turn this function on, and to turn it off.

AND up till the day this never happens, is there a switch in the about:config to turn this highly undesirable and useless function off?

I recently opened Firefox to see a new flagged warning under my toolbar that says "The security sandbox is disabled. Your configuration is unsupported and less secure."

I have gone into about:config and adjusted every security.sandbox element to see if that would change anything; it did not.

I am running on Windows 11 Home so I cannot install or properly run Windows Sandbox.

I would either like a solution to enable the sandbox once again, or just remove the notification from the toolbar.

I have the problem that if a stream is playing (Youtube or other video sites) and iam on another tab that the stream stopps/hangs for a second...

It seems to hang also if iam scrolling on another site while the video is playin in a not active tab.

If iam on the active tab where the video is playing it is working fine and no stopps/hanging.

So there seems to be a problem with playing streams/Videos on non active tabs...

I testet Linux Bazzite and there wasnt this problem with Firefox.

So seems to be a problem with Firefox in Windows...

I'm taking my bi yearly Brain test and it wants to access my microphone so I can speak into it but I can't figure out how for them to access the microphone. I've done what Windows told me to do, go to start>settings>privacy and security>Microphone and made sure it was turned on but that didn't work. Is there something in Mozilla that I can do?

Hi, i like to share idea of tab group improvement. I have more than 20 tabs, and i clean, move open tabs to groups every week, to lower opened tab amount, so i don't need to scroll much. But when i want to consume tab group content, i need to read them all to see what i want to consume... Solution, i would like option to sort tab groups by name, that way it will be faster to find what i want. Also it would be easier to find what tab group to add tab when i clean, move opened tabs. I have more than 500 tabs in my tab group. I finally decided to stop YT search, instead clean my tab groups. Thanks for reading.

Sometimes, when I have multiple windows open, closing a window won't completely close. It leaves a blank area where it was, the title of the window is displayed, but clicking in the area just switches to one of the other open windows, and there seems to be no way to finish the process. This has been a problem through the last few Firefox updates. Any thoughts? OS -- macOS Tahoe 26.1 Firefox -- 145.0 (aarch64)

I updated Firefox to 145.0 this morning, and after Firefox had restarted, it had lost all bookmarks and the bookmarks toolbar. I have spent all day following links to correct the problem and got nowhere. I have restarted Windows and Firefox countless times - no change. I've even tried reinstalling Firefox over the existing version. If I go to bookmarks > manage bookmarks > restore and backup, sometimes that will load, others not. When it does load, it fails to find a file to restore from. 10 years of bookmarks, links & research vanished.

Can someone please provide a solution (preferably in Layman's terms) to this??
