Hello,

My Firefox dashboard looks very different. I like a darkview mode and it won't connect to dark view mode. Also, for each website I visit........it looks different and connection is questioning my access each time. I've compare this to my laptop and the same website looks different.

Please help. In fact, right now, this page won't allow me to select the option to email me when someone answers the thread. My email address is [redacted email from public community support forum]

Dear Mozilla Team,

I am a long-time, dedicated user of Firefox. Recently, my workflow has shifted heavily toward modern, resource-intensive web applications (such as large, stateful AI chat platforms, complex dashboards, and heavy documentation tools) that handle massive amounts of text and DOM elements over extended sessions.

While Firefox’s multi-process architecture is generally robust, power users often have to resort to tweaking hidden settings in about:config (such as adjusting process counts) to prevent performance degradation, memory management friction, or sluggish re-rendering during heavy, long-running tasks.

It would be fantastic to see more accessible, user-facing performance profiles or advanced resource-management options directly in the Firefox settings—for instance, a dedicated "High-Performance" or "Power User" mode for heavy web apps. This would allow users with high-end hardware (such as 32GB+ RAM systems) to explicitly allocate more resources and processing power to specific tabs or workloads without compromising the stability of the rest of the browser.

Thank you for continuing to build such an open, customizable, and user-focused browser!

Best regards, Thomas Prigl

Following a windows 11 update some weeks ago on my Windows 11 Dell XPS 15 laptop, Thunderbird failed to connect to the internet. I have tried various "fixes" using Google AI but none has provided a permanent solution. I can sometimes get it to run by repeat clicking or by restarting but this only works on a hit or miss basis so can you help find a permanent solution?

I'm talking about Firefox version 156.0 (64-bit)??? So since the last Windows 10 security update Firefox just wouldn't start anymore. I had two or three automatic refreshments of Firefox but even that didn't do the trick anymore in the end. Then there was a secundary Windows 10 update and I got everything running smoothly again for two days, and now today there was a Firefox update and the whole trouble started again. Even some sites wouldn't work anymore (outlook, DeepL) or I couldn't login anymore. I'll try going back to a previous version ...

Microsoft seems to have interfered with my computer. I have been using it for 10 years using Mozilla Firefox with no problems. Now all my own documents have been frozen and I am unable to make any alterations or continuation of text. I am desperately worried. I am 83 years old and started using computers relatively late in life. I am a complete 'generational novice'. It seems as if Microsoft has had some input. Please help

Each time I power up my laptop I want my page to go straight to my Yahoo Mail. It does do that but it also tries to open another page that errors out. I think its because there's a 'c in the address and the file can't be found. I don't know how that filename got written into the Start Up Program and I can't find it to remove it. Please tell me like a First Grader how to remove this error message.

http://"c/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/firefox.exe%22%20-new-window%20https://mail.yahoo.com/

It says it cannot open the page.

Thank you for any help you can offer.
