Firefox repeatedly crashes on my, multiple times a day. I'dc really like to NOT have to change my default browser to Chrome.

What happens is that Firefox freezes, and I get a white bar at the top telling me so. I get a popup box asking if I want to close Firefox or wait for it to respond. Waiting doesn't work, so I always have to close Firefox. When I reopen it, fortunately all m,y open tabs are retained, but it crashes again within minutes or seconds as soon as I click on anything.

There only thing that seems to work is a reboot of my PC. But the respite is short before Firefox crashes again.

I've disabled most plugins, but that hasn't helped. Is there a way to create an event log within Firefox that I can share with someone at Mozilla to help e debug the issue? It's got to be something local rather than Firefox itself; I can't imagine this is happening to most users.

This is the second time I've posted about this. I've tried everything and the problem is getting worse. Thunderbird is deleting messages from my inbox when I retrieve messages from the server. All my settings indicate this should not be happening, but it is. I use the IMAP interface and the latest version of Thunderbird.

This morning after I downloaded messages Thunderbird showed no messages in any of my folders, not even archived! What the heck is going on and how can I solve this? I will have to stop using Thunderbird unless I get this resolved -- and fast.

I refresh the page, choose another video, close the tab, open a new tab and now the video does not even play at all.

Hi, All of a sudden, I lost absolutely all of my bookmarks. My PC is running Windows 11. My Firefox account was and still is logged in. At first, I thought the data loss was due to a CCleaner cleanup using their latest update. After the data was lost, I tried running another CCleaner cleanup, but this time it didn’t delete the bookmarks. So I honestly have no idea how this could have happened. These were bookmarks I had saved over many years... It’s a disaster.

I am using AdGuard Windows App but the app does not work well with Firefox. There are long page loading delays on many sites (TLS handshakes, etc.) while I do not have this issue with other browsers. I have installed the AdGuard certificate, have disabled DOH in Firefox, but still the problem. The only solution is to turn off HTTPS filtering in the AdGuard Windows app which then defeats many of the protections normally afforded by the AdGuard Windows app. I understand that there is a long history of Firefox not playing well with AdGuard Windows app so I am hoping/wondering if there is some solution on the horizon?

Have a problem getting page data? Had a campus directory page that before allowed wget2 to download pages fine for over 10 years. Now that modified pages, and get nothing? Can open the new page https://employeessb-prod.ec.guamcc.edu/EmployeeSelfService/ssb/campusDirectory#/lastName But trying to manually save page results in a 1.3M file, while using print to PDF gives a 50K file? Seems it is some kind of dynamic page, so the Save as gives a ton of garbage Java code, versus saving the final web page. Printing to PDF seems to take the final form and print the correct information.

Currently takes a 2 1/2 minutes to go to the first page, Ctrl-P, and print to PDF File. Then have to use Next option to go to pages 2-6, and manual print each one, changing the save file name each time. Makes like 6 50K files. Use pdftotext to change to text, and then combine into one file to extract data.

What took 6 seconds with wget2 to download, now takes 2 1/2 minutes??

Hi

i use Mozilla at work, in logistics.

When booking shippments we use "nShift". Booking is repetitive, so the autofill function (in swedish its autofyll) is pretty useful, and we have used it extensively...now for some reason it has just disappeared and we cant get back.

See uppploaded imgage, tried to follow the instructions,..... also in my edition there is no subheading caled "Formulär & autofyll", it just says "Autofyll".

So the question is, what to do to get the autofill back.

Thnaks for all the help i can get.

Hi I was using TB 142 without problems. When upgrading to 143 ou 144.B4 I have problems sending mails to all users after some times. Usually the first mails are sent immediatly but after around 10 mails, I have very slow response (varies from 5 sec to more than 1 minute and sometimes timeout). Usually quitting TB solves the problem but this is very annoying. I went back to 140LTS and sems to have no longer this problem. This was tested on many diffrent networks. I am running under Fedora release 42

Thanks

I have a rather odd question. I have a website with a background video that autoplays made with Squarespace. The video plays fine in every browser, except maybe 10-20% of the time will only pull up the spinning white wheel with black background but just in Firefox. I have been through all troubleshooting, DRM settings reset, Cache cleared, hardware acceleration turned off, browser up to date - but none of it gives me a permanent solution. The video itself is up to correct spec in Squarespace, does anyone know what I'm missing? Thank you in advance.

When browsing, I sometimes (more often than not) get a Secure Connection Failed message. The Try Again tab clears the problem sometimes (not that often). This problem has just started happening in the last week, during which I have not made changes to any settings in Firefox. This problem does not exist using other search engines for the same site that I am trying to access, and I note that I also get this same failure when trying to access some Firefox webpages. Is there a fix to this other than contacting the web site owner, which I doubt is the cause of the problem, or for ease and simplicity should I just change to another search engine that does not have the problem?

A long time ago I was able to set the max number of rows for shortcuts on the Firefox home page to 5. Sometime fairly recently it has changed to 4. I don't know why nor can I remember which line in about;config I used to change it. I think the line was "browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesRows" but when I try to change it, it does nothing. At the time I first changed it, the max it would change to was 5. The max now appears to be 4 if I did it correctly. Your help would be appreciated.

On Windows 11 laptops, I am currently using an Acer Nitro w/ 12th gen Intel i5 16GB RAM, I use my touch pad for scrolling on sites with infinite scrolling. Occasionally this function breaks, when it does it breaks for every tab in the browser window including the setting, I haven't found a singular or specific cause yet. I have troubleshooted it in the community, the prevailing logic being that themes or extensions are causing some incompatibility, so I have reset everything to defaults and made sure I have no extensions loaded, and the problem persists. I can temporarily fix the issue by going into my settings and turning hardware acceleration on and off again. I am writing this to hopefully point out this bug as clearly as possible in hopes that your programmers can fix it in a future update, as repeatedly turning a setting on and off to "fix" it might not be the best solution in the long term.

Have updated from 140.3.1 esr 32 bit to 143.0.1 release 64 bit TB and to windows 11 - uninstalled 32 bit and installed 64 bit and updated to windows 11 Following updates found that device sign in id (pin) was used to be in 32 bit missing from settings to access password but can show passwords. In reviewing the profile after update I note that Mozilla location service key, google location service key and safe browsing keys are missing (not sure what they were pre update). The key4.db file pre update was 1/3/22 but after update it is 10/10/25. The logins.json pre and post update is 7/9/25. I can see the default release profile and local only - use only the default release. My question is - has the 64 bit installation cleared all my keys/how can I check all my keys and how do I fix and ensure connections are secure?

Thankyou for any advice.
