I'm trying to use Firefox to fill out my tax forms, but while I can save them and view them with Firefox, they're blank when I open them with Adobe or print them. This is, to say the least, NOT USEFUL. What is happening?!?? I'm using Win10 and the latest version of Firefox, and I tried it on an old Mac with the latest version of Firefox as well.

Hey!

Anyone has any ideas why the extensions does not work properly anymore? Or is in similar situation?

My browser has been updated, as well mentioned extensions (its only 4 of them really). They worked fine for years and now suddenly - when I click on them - there is no response! I refreshed and re-installed the browser as well. Restarting does not help either.

There are many tabs open in the firefox window. I'm closing the firefox. I'm opening it again.All tabs opened during the previous opening disappear.Either a new page or a single tab opens. The settings are set to "Open previous windows and tabs" (Image 1)

I go to "Firefox View" ---"Open tabs". (image 2) I see 2-5 windows there.In this case, there are 3 windows.WINDOW 1 is my main window with the tabs that should have been saved and opened when firefox was launched again. I close all tabs from unnecessary windows with a cross.Only window 1 remains. But when restarting, an empty or different window opens again.And again, there are a lot of unnecessary and incomprehensible windows on the list. Previously, a window with restored tabs from the previous session always opened. Question: 1)How can I restore the normal recovery of the previous session when restarting? 2) Tell me.I can somehow switch between windows (Firefox View" ---"Open tabs)(Image 1) Thank you.

I just lost all of my bookmarks and am unable to add new bookmarks. I am not aware that I made any changes, nor was anyone else using this computer, they simply disappeared. When I log into a familiar site and hit add bookmark, nothing happens. Also, if I go to manage bookmarks and attempt to manually add the book mark it doesn't work. Any suggestions? I prefer to use Firefox as my browser, but will have to switch if I can't resolve this!

When trying to install Firefox 141 on a Win11 computer with no internet access the installer starts going then there is a error pop up saying this version of firefox requires Win10. Is there something that needs done to work around this?

For a couple of days now Instagram linked videos won't play here. Actually some of them will -- my own reels and anything linked with that button that looks like a movie 'clapper'. But videos that show the triangular arrow pointing to the right, nothing happens when you click. Not sure if this is a FF issue or maybe something changed at Instagram. Did a google search and nothing came up.

I kept my installation of Windows 11 while doing a clean install of Windows 11 to another drive. I installed FF and copied the profile from the old installation to the new one. about:addons displays all my add-ons and they're all enabled. But their icons don't appear to the right of the search bar. How do I get them back?

I am using Firefox 141.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11.

When I watch a video on Firefox (say, on YouTube,) the first watch-through is fine. When I restart the video, the audio desyncs with the video. For instance, if the person in the video says a word, and that word normally appears on screen simultaneously, in Firefox, it takes a second or two for the person to say the word. If I back the video all the way to the beginning manually, and then press play, it works fine.

I've disabled Hardware Acceleration in order to try and fix it, but it didn't work. I would appreciate any help with this.

Thanks in advance.

I was working away on copying some files, nothing to do with Firefox. Firefox was open, though I hadn't used it in several minutes. Upon returning to Firefox, I noticed that although my browser had been open, it was not open anymore. All that was open was the download window.

At times in the past, I've accidentally closed the browser window while the download window was still open. I thought maybe this was what had happened this time, even though I absolutely didn't do that. I closed the download window and clicked on the icon on my desktop to restart it.

And that was when I discovered...no more tabs. Not a single one. Just a plain single blank tab.

In searching for an answer, I found this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1396868 but in my confusion and horror and anxiety over needing to get the tabs restored, I had missed this part: "Assuming you found the .html file, it should indicate which .jsonlz4 file it was listing out. Is that the file you want to roll back to (the .jsonlz4 file, not the HTML file)?" and I had started to follow the procedure below it, and after renaming the two files as specified, I realized...I don't have a file to restore.

And so now I have nothing. I don't know how to restore my tabs at all. I literally have no access to anything, because all was tied up in those tabs. How do I restore them? I did find another procedure elsewhere that used "History" and "Restore previous session," but the problem with that solution is that in the "History" there's no such option at all. (This is where I found that one.) https://www.bleepingworld.com/restore-previous-session-firefox/

I'm so afraid to try anything now, I haven't had this problem in years and now I'm totally lost and afraid to mess this up more.

As for the browser I'm writing about, it's the latest Firefox, as I have it set to automatically update. OS is w10.

Also, I only have sync set for passwords. I don't have it set for tabs, for the reason that I use different ones on different devices.

Please, please, help!

Thanks in advance.

Hello! I saw that the Test day event had started. In Firefox Beta, I entered messaging-system-action.testday in about:config, put it on a string and set the value to testday as it said in the instructions. When I restarted Firefox, the welcome window did not appear and there was also no letter S next to the search as it should be. Please help!

Thanks for the answers!

My wife's Firefox was triggered from an e-mail link and in the process got updated to release 141.0 The result is that the tabs from the previous verion have not loaded. Can I still recover them?

The problem described in my subject line just started happening when Firefox updated to v 141.0. (I'm running it on a desktop with Windows 10.) All of a sudden I have to fish each screenshot out of my downloads folder. Any suggestions?

when I do a search, starting today, the AI either hangs, returning nothing, or only partially works and then hangs. This is serious for me as the AI results have meant that I was getting much more from a search than I used to. I am using a Samsung laptop on W7. I updated the version to latest one 115.26.0, with no joy. Is it going to stay like this? If so I will move on. I support Mozilla with £. Thanks for your help. I am 80 now. When I was 40 I would have been in the thick of knowing all about Firefox (I was in technical IT then) but I'm now too old to keep up with all that.

Ever since the latest update to version 141, YouTube video pages only load like 3 quarters of the way. When I refresh it, I get the video. It's not an adblocker problem, because I turned off all my adblockers and tried YouTube and had the exact same problem. It loads the home page and subscriptions and other stuff just fine, it's only video pages that have the problem. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

Hello, I am using Firefox so far, recently (today) it is updated automatically over my system (laptop). But this time the 'New Private Window' is not working. I am not able to access any of site. After typing any of word/keyword e.g. Google, India, Mozilla I am not getting any of suggestions or single a word. I think it might be a glitch or something else. Can you please resolve the case of 'new private window' unable to open...

Thanks, Sushrut.

Pourquoi n'est-il pas possible d'entrer simplement les identifiants, sans les mots de passe, pour une saisie automatique des identifiants (généralement l'adresse e-mail) ?
