After the new update came by VPN Icon disappear. Went and did the about:config and switching it to True and restarted and still not showing up. Went into settings and privacy and security don't see VPN in there like how it use to be. Just wondering if it's done or is it a bug/glitch.

The page pops up for a second first, then this happens. They worked yesterday. It happens the same in safe mode. opera works for those sites. Firefox hasn't changed. I log firefox's output, find no errors reported. I did upgrade a few packages yesterday: fontconfig, haveged, qt5, nodejs, which .

The firefox screen has shifted so that only two of my four lines of shortcuts appear on the screen. There is a larger than previous space between the ribbons at the top and the search bar that has appeared since I downloaded the newest firefox version. Before that, everything fit well on the screen.

Hi, I’ve been experiencing slow startup times in Firefox, especially when I have my Time calculator web app open. The browser takes longer to load and sometimes becomes unresponsive.

I’ve tried disabling extensions and changing my home page, but the issue persists. Are there any specific settings or troubleshooting steps in Firefox that can help improve performance when using online calculators like this?

Any guidance or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I cannot log into my account and synchronize my data, logins and passwords. I downloaded the latest version of the browser on the official website. Below I will send screenshots proving that there are no buttons or anything that would indicate at least the slightest login to your account. BUT YOU'RE SHOVING YOUR FUCKING AI BOT EVERYWHERE.

After the last update on my desktop browser, my password was requested in order to "install a new helper tool." But it isn't accepting my password, even after I double checked what it was. And there's no Change Password link.

Since I can still access the Firefox browser on my iPhone, I thought of I'd change my password there and sync, but the new password isn't accepted either. Once a password isn't accepted, pressing cancel closes the app and it can't be reopened without a Force Quit first.

And 'round and 'round I go. How do I regain access to my desktop browser?

Thanks.

as is the text I read takes only 1/3 of the available width of the screen. In reading mode I can widen that, but many pages lose a lot in reading mode. How can I widen the text in normal mode?

In the previous version of the Firefox opening screen, I had a Google search bar. Below this would be the most popular sites I had visited in a three line grid.

Since the update, the Firefox logo and a huge amount of white space now occupies nearly half the screen before we even get get to the Google search bar. The three line grid of most recent sites has been pushed to the bottom third of the screen and the third line of the grid I actually have to scroll down to see.

After update to Firefox 150, and now again after update to Firefox 151.0.1 , I get the message :

"Activer le VPN dans Firefox

   Recherchez l’invite de configuration du VPN dans le coin supérieur droit de votre barre d’outils de Firefox. Si elle n’est pas affichée, cliquez sur l’icône du VPN dans la barre d’outils. "

No icon to initialize Firefox VPN

I can't figure out which topic to use for this but I can't submit it without one.

When I click on the star icon in the address bar the star icon is filled in, and existing bookmarks do show with the filled-in star icon and they work. But I no longer get a dropdown where I can assign a folder, edit, tag, or delete an existing bookmark, and the pages I've tried to bookmark don't show up in Recently Bookmarked so they haven't been added. I don't know if it has something to do with the toolbar?

Nothing I can find online helps. The places.sqlite file in my profile is not read-only, and I refreshed Firefox (stupidly, before I took a screenshot of the pinned shortcuts on my New Tabs page) and that made no difference. The only extension I use is UBlock Origin. Changing profiles did not help. This is on my personal laptop and no organization controls my settings.

I stay up to date on Windows 11 and Firefox updates. I do use a VPN but it never interfered with bookmarking functionality before. (I see Firefox offers a free one now but I've got a couple of years left on my paid subscription).

I asked the community but got no replies. (I did "reply" to add more information which no longer applies, and I can't seem to delete the "reply".)

Thanks in advance for any help!

Aloha, I accidentally clicked the "use identification hardware always" box when creating my passkey for a website and i want to stop the popup every time I go to sign into that site. It says it is from Mozilla.

Thank you!

Firefox is using disproportionate amount of cpu and memory after upgrade of win 11. How do I fix this. I have an I9 Processor with lots or ram and ssd drives way out of line..

Google has added some AI 'ads' to their title page? This just appeared a day or so ago on my system. How did I remove it, block it? Attached is an image of what I am asking about. What is interesting is in Chrome I can explicitly turn this junk off. But when using the Google search title page with Firefox, there appears to absolutely no way to disable it... very nasty way of forcing you to use Chrome?

In some regions, the offline translation language packs fail to download properly in Firefox. Users are unable to complete the download, which prevents the translation feature from working offline. Please look into potential regional network restrictions or server accessibility issues. Thank you.

Hi there,

Since the last update, GMX is able to detect my ad blocker and blocking access to my inbox unless I disable the ad blocker. I don't want to disable it. Is there a possibility that you adjust the update or can I do something else? Do other users have the same problems?

Kind regards Eva
