Firefox Community Forum

So today I was using firefox for work with multiple tabs open, I try to open a new tab and I get this message " Restart to keep using firefox"

I have updates set to "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" And the browser was fully updated to the newest update apart from this newest one?

Every time I try to open a new tab I keep getting this message mean I was unable to save my work and lost multiple tabs ?

Can someone explain this ?

My RoboForm Mozilla add-on stopped working and I tried to uninstall then reinstall the app. When I try to reinstall the extension, the following pop-up occurs: RoboForm Start Page has detected RoboForm browser extension but cannot connect with it. Please update RoboForm browser extension. How do I update the RoboForm browser extension? Thanks for any help you can provide to resolve this issue.

I recently bought a new computer and transferred all the data from my old computer to this new one. My old computer was running ESR, which was transferred to my new computer.

Without downloading a fresh install of Firefox and having to lose everything, is there a way to simply move over to the release channel of firefox? I tried syncing it up with my account but I still lost my history. Fortunately, I still have the ESR version of Firefox on my computer.

I tried to import but Firefox ESR wasn't an option.

why and or how can i update Firefox. i am running Firefox 126. every time i open the browser the auto update opens and fails to download. i tried loading it through Safari, also failed. anyone have a clear and simple solution? the forum seems to have a lot of complicated work a rounds. any help would be appreciated

Firefox no longer starts up. It crashes and stops responding on MAC Monterey 12.7.4 This is as far forward as it will go on this old mac. Everything worked fine yesterday, start up today and no go. I removed the profile and attempted to restart. No joy. So I downloaded a fresh copy and installed it over the old version. No joy. Cannot access profile manager. Removed version and fresh install, still no joy. How to I get it to launch, then How do I recover data from old profile?

I can't get firefox to play amazon music web page or netflix because it claims to be installing an app which it never completes. I've tried to purge cache for the site in question, to no avail. What is the solution?

When i do update my configuration settings changing by itself. Example, "browser.cache.disk.enable" is "false" but after every updates its always changing to "true". This happens only after updates.

Hi,

Dunno if this is by design, but a lot of installers don't play well when installed from standard user account with elevated privieleges. Firefox installer on Windows 10, when ran from GUI or admin PowerShell, accesses AppData fodler under standard user account that started the elevated process. Thus, it's not possible to install it if admin account doesn't have access to user folder, as on my system it doesn't for security reasons.

It's a minor inconvenience to need to explicitly log into admin account and do it there. But as this is a disease among installers I'd rather have them play well with normal security.

You may disagree here, and I understand if you do. Just pointing it out.

I just updated my iMac from Mojave to Catalina 10.15.7. I thought Firefox would provide an update to convert the esr version to the standard Firefox browser since I am no longer using Mojave, but the next update is 115.15.0esr. Is that correct? My understanding is that the esr updates are just for computers using older operating systems through Mojave. I did not update to 115.15.0esr since I am not sure if that is the right version for Catalina. Any information and assistance you can provide me is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Since the last update (was executed today in my case 16-07-2024), firefox has been very slow and freezing and crashing. Also, somehow it is the only browser that can't handle yahoo finance new charts and keeps freezing....so many issues in a short span of time, please check. I have tried other browsers and things seem to work fine there, so, it is not my computer or OS.
