Hello, my firefox browser suddenly started to crash on startup,even when trying to start it in safemode but holding down shift key , i also tried to uninstall and delete all firefox related data from my pc and then reinstall,still crashes which is weird because it worked fine before the crash reported contents contain the following BuildID: 20260715202819 CrashTime: 1784782141 InstallTime:

For example, if one moves their mouse button close to the bottom edge of their browser window, holds down the left mouse button then drags the mouse further down to the edge of the browser window, it will begin to scroll downward. The same thing happens on the right edge of the window if there's a horizontal scroll bar for the page.

Does anyone know of a way to disable this? Is there something in about:config maybe? Thanks.

My Firefox browser was updated to the most recent version (153.0). And since then, it will always freeze up within a few minutes of me opening it, even in troubleshooting mode. Even if I keep clicking, it’s still stuck and I’m forced to close it.

I did turn off hardware acceleration before, and it still doesn’t work.

XML search results from the SEC EDGAR database appear to display now as flat text files under Firefox 153 instead of the SEC's beautifully formatted XML page display.

As a flat text files these are very hard to read.

Also when saving these files for processing, the save name is now "browse-edgar.html" when before it was "SEC.gov _ EDGAR Search Results.html"

Note also that when saving an html file the extention is intermittently .htm instead of .html.

When saving "DOM source of selection.html" as "text files" the extension will change to .txt instead of .html as it was earlier. When I save them a second time the extension will be corrected to .html as it was before. I have to catch these now or my Matlab code won't recognize the files in my download folder. I'm not sure which extension is correct.

(Intel Mac running Tahoe)

Anyway lots of little things with this release.

Thanks for the best browser in the world in spite of them.

Hi, I'm pretty sure the email I am signed in with now is what was tied to all of my bookmarks in Firefox but I had to do an account recovery and I did not have my key. When I was able to sign back in and hit the sync button nothing updated.

I am really, really hoping I did not lose everything here... is there anyway I can recover my bookmarks/passwords?

Using iMac with M3 chip. Latest system software: Version 26.5.2 (25F84). On latest Firefox update.

I am no longer able to log in to my bank using the Firefox browser, BUT am able to log in using the Apple environment...ie Safari, and iOS. I'm a longtime customer/consumer of both Firefox and the bank, and this is the first time I've been unable to log in. I prefer Firefox over Safari, but my bank was recommending that I use another browser...like Safari, Chrome...etc. What do you think is the reason for what I would assume is a software compatibility issue? This was the message left on the screen: "Requested URL was rejected."

Any help would be nice to keep me from using Safari...

Hello! Since the latest update to Firefox (153, I believe) my Firefox has not worked. It starts up perfectly fine, but quickly freezes, becomes non-responsive, and needs to be closed. No matter how many times I attempt to open it, the same thing occurs. There’s been been occasions where it hasn’t frozen immediately so I have been able to turn off hardware acceleration as well as remove my theme and disable all my add-ons/extensions, but this has done nothing. Creating a new profile does not help, nor does trying Safe Mode: the same thing happens no matter what. I tried to reinstall the update, but this also did nothing. I haven’t yet tried to uninstall & reinstall or do a Firefox refresh as those are my last resorts and I won’t do them unless I’m sure they’ll make a difference. I haven’t downloaded any new extensions recently, and this only started happening after the most recent update. I’m not sure what else I can try at this point, and am very frustrated.

I have picture-in-picture disabled, but when I play a video in one tab and switch to any other tab, it will popup in the corner anyway. Closing out of it pauses the video, and when I then start the video again and try to go back to the other tab it pops up again. This is very annoying when I am just trying to listen to a video in the background and can't stop it from covering part of my screen when I am trying to something in another tab.

Is there anything else I need to disable to prevent this? I don't understand why I'm still seeing picture-in-picture when I have "Use Picture-in-Picture" checked off.

When I use ChatGPT in the Firefox sidebar, I can open a conversation normally. However, when I hide the sidebar and then show it again, ChatGPT leaves the conversation I had open and returns to the main page.

The conversation is not deleted from my history, but I have to find and reopen it every time I hide the sidebar.

Is there a setting that allows the sidebar to keep the same ChatGPT conversation open after hiding and reopening it? Is this normal behavior, or could it be a Firefox bug?

I am using the latest version of Firefox on Windows 11.
