Hello,

I have a local Linux-Firefox installation in /home/user/bin/ and set it for me to be notified, when updates are available (see screenshot). But this never happens. Or where would this notification even show up?

Hi, in windows 10, while I am launching Firefox - if it does not exist yet - a new read-only file is created on the Desktop. This file was created time ago by myself (so its name does not matter much and it contains only a small empty branch). I can't delete it as far as I don't have the rights to do it. I tryied used cmd console and powershell to fix it, but nothing works fine. I run my antivirus, no more result. Tried to trash this file using external programs, same issue. Tryied to change the rights of that file, to reinstall completly FF, nothing seems to be useful. Possible way to solve it : I clean up my C: last week because I wanted more space and a better organization (moment from which that problem began). It is like Firefox was needing a file in the Windows tree and as he couldn't find it, he creates it because he need that this file exists. Regards

My MacOS is 10.13.6 (cannot go higher on this machine). Since update to 15.119.0esr, embedded map graphics are no longer showing. The map graphic sub-window instead shows "Sorry, we have no imagery here" in several places across the map. I am getting the same for multiple websites, including the location maps in Zillow.com . Google Maps works fine, and I think the problem is isolated to maps embedded in pages. Did not have this issue last week, prior to updating to 15.119.0esr. This is SO BAD that if it's not fixable, I want to revert to 15.118...

I use containers to segregate cookies amongst specific groups as I desire, further, I use the Mozilla Multi-Account Containers extension so i can sync these containers across devices and clear cookies for individual containers. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be any way for me to clear the cookies of all my non-containerised browsing. In Firefox settings, I can clearly see that I can clear ALL my data, but I only want the data that has been used when I select "No container" for a new tab to be cleared. I am unsure if this is a missing feature or I am just unable to find it.

In the images provided you can see that you can manage your containers with this add-on and clear the storage and cookies for individual containers, however, this list lacks the "No Container" (which I guess is a container of its own) and the general firefox clear storage and cookies menu clears everything, including my containerised storage and cookies.

The past weeks/months I do not see any square check boxes where they are supposed to be. When I click in the space where I know ther is supposed to be one, a check mark does appear, but it is annoying. Buttons remain empty visibly when I check it. No dot appears, but it does register that I clicked it. Also annoying. It's in automatic, light and dark mode the same

P.S. The same with the check box (email me) on this page, but now I see a check box but not if I clicked it.

Since the 135 update, the pinned shortcuts on the new tab are now not centered under the search bar. I've found a temporary fix in about:config (see below) but this makes the icons incredibly small. I would just like the pinned shortcuts to be centered now instead of left adjacent.

Firefox Multi-Account Containers keeps logging out of Facebook and Instagram

I have the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extensions installed, and configured with 3 containers: one for YouTube, other for Amazon, and finally one for Facebook and Instagram. Each container only opens said website and also logs-in to said website. I also have another computer with Firefox which all of those settings are also synced.

Both Amazon and Facebook work perfectly, but the Facebook container constantly logs out both from Facebook and Instagram, prompting me to enter my credentials time and time again, which has reached to the extent that now Facebook presents a Captcha every login, alongside a prompt asking me if I want to save those login credentials (which I say yes).

This started to happen last week as I did a fresh install of my OS on my desktop rig after I logged in into my Firefox Sync account and configured the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension. And yes, I have disabled erasing cookies after I close Firefox, Allow cookies and site data, and added both Instagram and Facebook as explicit options to save those cookies.

On Windows, any notification coming from any Firefox extension, appears to be coming from the Firefox app. It would be cool to add a feature under (Privacy and Security --> Notification settings --> See attached image) that would allow to specify which extensions are allowed to send notifications and which are not.

I can't install Firefox on my 2015 iMac, which is running Montery 12.2.6 OS. I had to reinstall everything after erasing my HD due to it not starting up for some reason, but now I get the message "“Firefox 135.0.dmg” is damaged and can’t be opened." every time I try to install Firefox. Any ideas how to get Firefox back?
