Firefox Community Forum

I bought a new hp notepad and McAfee keeps popping up. I followed the instructions on internet to no avail. Please help my new notebook is useless to me with mcfee popups

Non of the torproject.org site load on firefox they timeout. How do I access the torproject.org domains?

I cannot get the free VPN to turn on. It keeps looping me back to sign in and then tells me to turn it on and then it loops back to the sign in and continues to loop

So, I'm not exactly sure what's going on. Whenever I try to turn on Firefox's built-in VPN, either it tells me I cannot connect and to try again in a few minutes, or it just does not respond at all. I know this is vague, but it's literally everything I can muster. I looked through the settings, and nothing there helped.

i cannot find privacy & security in my firefox

Firefox Image Display Problem with Grok / xAI ChatI'm using:Dell computer Windows 10 Firefox (latest version)

Problem: Grok-generated images (graphs, memes, translated election charts, etc.) do not appear at all in the chat. I only see blank spaces or broken image icons. Right-click → "Open Image in New Tab" and Ctrl+Shift+R (hard refresh) do not work.This issue started during a long conversation where Grok was creating multiple JPG versions of an election results graph with translated text.Note: The same images load fine in other sessions/browsers, but I prefer to stay with Firefox. Is this a known compatibility issue with Grok's image rendering system in Firefox? Any settings, extensions, or workarounds (without switching to Chrome or Edge) that can fix it?

My Mozilla Firefox browser is not working. It does not open when I try to start it. I have restarted my computer, but the issue still persists. Please help me fix this problem.

Yes, I'd like to use the same account on both of my profiles.

I understand that for some users, this may be confusing.

In my case, the only reason for different profiles is that I need to use a Proxy Server for some websites, and no proxy for other websites. Manually switching proxy settings is painful, and doing so causes traffic for my other tabs/windows to go to the proxy, which I do not want.

I have a main (set of) windows (and its tabs) going straight to the internet, then I have a separate window (and its tabs) configured to go through a proxy (SOCKS5 in this case). I want all other settings, bookmarks, passwords, etc. to be identical to both. I end up having to logout of my main profile, log into the other profile to sync settings, log out of there, and log back into my main profile.

Is there a valid technical reason why an account on the same FireFox installation cannot be shared between two profiles?

I can do this on multiple computers (same account, different computers/profile), seems odd it is restricted to not allow on the same computer.

I have an alternative solution: Install FireFox natively, then install FireFox as AUR or FlatPak, but not sure this will collide as this both uses the same profile directory. Hum...

the problem started 2 or 3 updates ago. I keep hoping the latest update will fix the problem. I can still access using Chrome. I've tried clearing cache and turning off ETP

I'm using firefox in ubuntu. A couple of minutes ago Firefox crashed. I restarted to a completely new Firefox. All my tabs, extensions, saved passwords, etc. were gone. This happened to me a few weeks ago. That time I found a solution: find a back-up of the old profile and manually restore it. I tried to reproduce that solution this time, only to find that there are no back-ups at all of my previous session. Is there a solution to this problem?
