Presently 142.0.1 (64-bit) installed; previous updates/downloads had no problems.

Now, however, going to https://www.firefox.com/en-US/?utm_campaign=SET_DEFAULT_BROWSER and attempt a download results in this (image).

Any solution to this?

Thank you.

Hi ,

Have just joined the Thunderbirds, after two disasterous crashes of eM Client, when I lost 10 years of my emails etc.

My PC's run Win 7 (yes I know everyone says I should upgrade(?) to a later version of Windows, but I'm very happy with 7 and Thunderbird works brilliantly on it) and I'm just getting used to Thunderbird.

However, maybe it's my age or lack of observation, but I canot find a way to import my contacts, which are in a folder on my C: drive. (A later and larger database in eM Client is isolated on a pen drive with the rest of eM Client's .dat files, which neither eM Client or ChatGPT can help me restore.) Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

                                                                                        John

Firefox 143.0.3 on Windows 11 24H2. I normally run my browser window full vertical height of the screen (but not maximized). If my PC goes into screen save due to lack of activity, each time I return and it comes out of screen save, the bottom of the Firefox window has risen vertically by about 15-20 pixels, and there is now a gap between the bottom of the FF window and the bottom of the screen. If I go in/out of screen save again, then the gap increases again as the windows shrinks further. The top of the FF window doesn't move, only the bottom.

This problem doesn't happen with the window size of any other app that I use if I size the window the full height of the screen and go in/out of screen save - eg the Thunderbird window remains the full height of the screen.

Any suggestions on a possible cause and how to fix the problem? It isn't just the latest version of FF that has the problem - it was also there with previous versions.

is there a way to prevent HTTP Basic Authentication dialog from stealing focus in about:config? It can be really annoying if a site logs me out randomly while working in another tab. Chromium browsers does not do that

Since installing 143.0.3 (aarch64) on Firefox I can no longer use eBay because the search results page only appears for a few seconds before it skips ahead. (Safari works fine, but it's Safari.) I am using Mac OS Version 15.6.1. I have disabled Enhanced Tracking Protection on the eBay website and cleared the cookies from the eBay website, restarted Firefox, and restarted the computer. There are other solutions offered on the Internet that have sometimes worked over the years for various eBay/Firefox issues, but going down that rabbithole seems likely to be a waste of time. Does anybody have suggestions for the specific issue I'm having?

This started last year and I found a fix on google but I can't remember it. It has noiw come back and is driving me nuts. About 2-5 minutes into composing an email thunderbird goes unresponsive and is greyed out. i have waited 30 mintues and nothing happens. It does not happen until after you type the first character into the new email. I have checked user rights on the thunderbird folder and my windows user folder and I have admnin rights on both If i shut Thunderbird the email appears in drafts when i restart, but only from a bit before it froze. I have reinstalled, compacted nothign is fixing it. Using 64 bit 140.3 on windows 11 home.Tried update to 140.3.1esr. no difference. Just about to give up and go to Outlook because I don't write trivial emails and this is a PITA

unable to print. When I click on an AOL email to print, "preparing preview" appears. The email I'm trying to print usually just shows up and I click on number of copies, pages, etc. I need to print. Now, the preparing preview page does not load the email I'm trying to print, and then I get the "firefox has crashed" dialogue box appears.

On android, it is possible to change the search engine of the search bar on the home screen. There you can select a Search Engine App, like Google, Qwant or Startpage.

However, Firefox is currently not available as a selectable option there. Adding it there would make it possible for those searches to be handled by firefox.

Here is a like from the Google Documention explaining it more. https://support.google.com/android/answer/14661350?visit_id=638898573078368897-2813460311&p=change_search_engine&rd=1

when we add any website to shortcut , the image of shotcuts appear properly but when we visit 2nd or 3rd time same website the shortcut website image disappear.

this happened with all websites. 

there are tow types of images. 1 - we visit first time to any website and shortcut images looks properly. 2- shortcut images disapear permanently.

please fix this issue as soon as possible.

Hello, recently started using group tabs v143 - very cool!

One thing I noticed is that when I close all the ungrouped tabs I was just using, FF will then open one of the grouped tabs. I assume this was the last grouped tab I used, which may not be today, and not what I want to do right now. Is there a way to have FF not go into a group after that last ungrouped tab was closed - maybe just open a new blank tab or homepage? If not possible now, where do I add this to a feature/setting wishlist? Cheers!

Hi,

I am having the issues on more than 1 pc that after updating the firefox esr 128 version to 140 esr version, the firefox does not work properly, specially with xWiki. when i click on xwiki (on-premis server), i can read the contents and all. but when i click edit then it shows the blank page. this is very odd as it happens after updating to 140 version. picture is attached.

Thanks Sheras

I opened Firefox on one of my computers as usual today but the whole performance changed. Used to go to my home tab and select various news sites to see what was happening. First, when I scroll down the bookmarks, I would hit the "news" and click on it so all the sub items would stay in the scroll, but instead of that, it wanted to open every item as a new tab. When I finally started opening the various news outlets, it opened them in new tabs, it had always opened in the same tab. Then, I couldn't close the various tabs it had opened. I would go to the tab and hit the "X" but it didn't close the tab. I had to use a drop down menu to close a tab. And when in a site, I used the scroll button on the mouse, instead of scrolling, it made the page larger or smaller instead of going up or down. What could make such a change in behavior? I opened up the 'settings' on it and looked at 'tabs' and they were the same as the ones that are on this computer that works as expected. Both computers have it set to open all previous windows and tabs. Both have the same settings for 'tabs' and 'browsing'. I don't get it. Both are version 143.0.3 (64-bit) I have Ubuntu OS.

How do I lock the Microsoft Purview settings in the attached image using intune, so users cannot change them.

I have been able to make it that they cant disable or remove the extension but cannot figure out how to make it that they cant change the settings. I did try making a json file but it does not seem like Firefox uses it.

Hello Supporters I'm using Thunderbird build 140.2.1esr. I cannot get it to minimise to the task bar. When I set it to not minimise to the system tray and minimise it, it pops up for <1 second in the task bar then drops down out of sight and reach. Does anyone know the reason for this, please? I recently had to re-build my win 11 (24H2) system and I think it's hapenned since then. I am used to it minimising to the task bar and prefer that. Regards Tony Pickering.

I had renewed my subscription for MS365 on Tuesday the 30th when I got a popup inviting me to update Firefox to the latest release. I agreed and the download appeared to have worked. However, I soon found I could not access any of the MS365 apps. I restarted and found Firefox had also disappeared. The icons are present in the list of apps but clicking on them gets no response.

I have deleted and reinstalled Firefox and downloaded a new MS365 with no change.

I have Norton online antivirus and the MS365 comes with continuous Defender using Malwarebytes. (I am running down the remaining Norton subscription). I have also used both to do a sweep on each but no problems were found.

I have Outlook which has not been affected.

I am coming to the conclusion that I may need to do a full deletion of both. Can anyone suggest any other way to deal with this?

I always have to go in Prefs.js file to put the correct tags for all our windows and apple machines but couldn't find it in Linux. Using the Settings panel doesn't assign the tag number needed to share the tags between machines. Where is the file containing the tags on a Linux machine?

I'm having trouble trying to set my local directory in Thunderbird back to what it was before I messed up.

I stuffed up changing the local directory in Account Settings to point somewhere else, so I tried to point it back to where it was before. I also put back the copy I had made of the original profile- now it says-

"The Local Directory path "C:\Users\vk7krj\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\1vgo1xlc.default-esr" is not suitable for message storage. Please choose another directory."

Yet I'm sure this was where it was pointing before I messed things up- what am I doing wrong?

I have over 20 years of emails and addresses on the line now so I am really hoping someone can help me get myself out of the mess I appear to have created.

Ken.

Hi, I've recently changed my phone to a Motorola g85. Since then, the homepage only shows me shortcuts and stories. No history, no last page visited, no anonymous button. I can't fix it in Settings either. Help, please. Thanks so much. Best regards, Amelia

My address book appears to be inaccessible. There are no contacts shown and new contacts and address books can't be added. The same is true if I delete the address book files from my profile and restart TB. I'm on TB version 143.0.1 and my profile is on a NAS server. This has worked for many years and broke only very recently. If I use a local profile, the address book works.
