Okay I did just get a new computer, but I've had Firefox for more than a decade and I've used Gyazo for about 5 years. Today I am suddenly not allowed to visit a site I have an account with and was able to visit YESTERDAY?!?! I can go to my Gyazo without any problem but when I try to use a link from someone sharing a picture, I get the Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue and am told I can't do anything about it?!?!

This is not acceptable. If this isn't resolved TODAY I will remove Firefox from my computer and go with another service. I appreciate you are a free service, but if you suddenly won't give me the service I've been getting for years from you then I will have to look elsewhere.

Please contact me ASAP regarding this. It is affecting how I do my job.

Regards,

Kari Bernard

Bought a new Acer computer from a computer service last year with windows 11. Was not allowed to access a website, CheapsTees.com because windows10 was expired Oct.14Th 2025. Paypal also shows windows 10 on my account but hasn't effected the service.

The main reason we bought the new computer is because the old one didn't support windows 11. Just to verify, it shows on the invoice we have it.

I appreciate your response.

Extremely Frustrating Experience Creating Firefox Profile Shortcuts — Leaving Firefox

Hello Mozilla community,

I want to share my extremely frustrating experience while trying to create desktop shortcuts for Firefox profiles. I have two profiles, and despite following all standard methods (including manually navigating to the profile folders), nothing worked. The usual steps, including directly creating shortcuts from the profile folder or using suggested tools, failed.

I specifically wanted a way to create exact shortcuts for each profile without manually editing anything. Even after testing everything, the only option left seems to be permanently leaving the profile inside Firefox and opening it from there, which defeats the purpose of quick access.

Due to this unnecessarily complicated process and lack of practical solutions, I have decided to leave Firefox permanently and switch to another browser.

Has anyone successfully created direct shortcuts for multiple Firefox profiles in Windows 11 without manual editing? Any practical advice would be appreciated, although I’m already moving away from Firefox.

Thank you. https://chatgpt.com/share/68e37504-cb3c-8002-8b05-f93a0edb5e02

Also, I opened the Share option and it populated with something I did not want shared. I attempted to delete the entry but it is too long. How do I remove that entry? Could you help by walking me through these issues?

If this is a duplicate of the issues I appologize.
