Firefox Community Forum

I browse exclusively with Firefox on a Windows desktop. Edge is installed but unused. Even so, Firefox unpredictably starts as many as seven Edge Webview2 processes, which invariably bog the computer down. (Webview2 pops up only when I use Firefox and usually when nothing else of consequence is running; so Firefox seems the likeliest culprit.) Microsoft says that trying to uproot Webview2 will disable many apps and may end civilization. How can I prevent Firefox from invoking Webview2?

Regarding FF v157:

- Mozilla have changed the Graphical user interface of Firefox without asking for consent or providing a clear way to revert back to the old interface, yet again. - They have made changes to the settings, so pre-installed search engines can only be toggled off and NOT removed... - There are a bunch of themes now pre-installed that can't be removed.

I think pushing a change without over way to revert, is why I a lot of people don't donate to the Mozilla foundation

I was using the "read aloud" function in chat gpt window today and suddenly it started showing me an error message "Unable to read aloud" . It did not affect Chrome. I used many of the troubleshooting recommendations but none worked. troubleshoot mode failed to fix it. private window did not fix it. default change for audio and video did not fix it.

I just upgraded Firefox to version 156.0.2.

It no longer plays mp4 content from a website. It says "No video with supported format and mime type found".

This used to be OK.

Last upgrade not stable keep loosing history not able to bookmark pages unless I open a new one ? Thank you for any assistance James Monedero mito4@aol.com

latest update "erased" my bookmarks. Ive followed all instructions, no backup file shows when doing Restore directions. Supposed to automatically save last 15 updates but no bookmarks? Where else may it be saved to try manual restore or am I going to have to reenter all I had.

Firefox just updated to version 157.0 and now all of my bookmarks are gone. I export my bookmarks but even when I go to Manage my Bookmarks and try to import the file I saved, clicking Browse button doesn't do anything. What happened to my bookmarks?

Today, October 1st, Firefox was updated on my computer, and I really don’t like the new design. The upper part of the browser is now much brighter and draws too much attention. The tabs also have a more rounded shape. I personally preferred the previous design, where the tabs were rectangular with slightly rounded corners - it looked cleaner and matched the rest of the browser better. I also don’t understand why the active tab is now highlighted so strongly. Previously, the active tab was simply a little lighter than the inactive ones, which felt much more subtle and comfortable. Is there a way to restore the previous design completely - with the gray upper browser area, the previous tab shape, and a less prominent active-tab highlight?

Thanks!

I am trying to login to one of my online banking websites and I am getting this message "Firefox prevented this page from automatically reloading" and when I hit the ALLOW button, nothing happens. I don't know if this related to the latest Firefox update ... but it's a real problem for me. I have to keep switching over to Chrome to login in. Please advise what I need to do?
