Firefox blocked this page because it might try to trick you into installing programs that harm your browsing experience (for example, by changing your homepage or showing extra ads on sites you visit).

I have card data saved for a number of cards in Firefox, and I am looking to clean that data up. However, when I go to Settings>Passwords and autofill>Payment methods>Manage payment methods no cards are showing up as saved. I also know that this is not Lastpass causing issues, as this card data is not saved in Lastpass. I have attached screenshots of both the manage payments page and the card data showing up for autofill selection on a webpage add payment method screen.

Pinned sites disappear after rebooting on Mac

Hello community,

I've been moved to MacOS at work and since then, Firefox will not always restore my pinned sites when I start it the next day.

Here is what I do:

  1. Right click a tab, select "Pin Tab"
  2. Go about my day
  3. At the end of the day, I close Firefox by using command Q and shutdown my Mac
  4. The next day, I start Firefox and most of the time, my pins are gone

I did not have this issue on Windows Firefox. I am using MacOS 26.5.2 and Firefox 152.0.4 Firefox says "Your browser is being managed by your organization" in settings. It is a link that can be clicked and the only active policy showing there is "DisableAppUpdate" which I assume is because we have our own tool to manage software updates.

Any idea what could cause my pinned tabs to disappear? I did not really customize the settings so far, I do NOT clear browsing data when exiting FF and the startup option "Open previous windows and tabs" is NOT selected. I have Ecosia and 1Password as plugins.

Any help appreciated, thank you.

Around July 2nd I opened FireFox to find that the text on whatever screen I was on is spaced in an ineligible form. It seems to be the correct spelling, just jumbled together. I've tried adjusting the fonts, browser acceleration, to no avail. It's becoming difficult to read, and it has only been affecting the desktop browser. It works just fine on my Mac and phone, but not my windows computer. It is the only application that does this. I've updated my drivers and all.

On my personal computer, I have a Profile for work and I was logged in via a Mozilla account using my work email address

I've recently set up a similar thing on my work computer. Signed in using Mozilla account. I have since noticed that on my personal computer it says "Account disconnected."

I'd like to sign in again and sync them so that I always see the same settings, shortcuts, open tabs etc on both computers. But if I sign in right now, will I lose the customizations I've made on the work computer? Which computer will it consider to be the "source" of the newly synced information?

Hi everyone,

I am currently using Firefox on Fedora (KDE Plasma) and looking for a way to automatically route downloaded files into specific folders based on their file extensions.

For example, if I download a '.stl' or '.blend' file, I want it to automatically go to '~/3d/downloaded', and if it is a '.gguf' file, it should go to '/models'.

Since native application settings only allow choosing one global download folder, using third-party browser extensions feels like a security risk as they require broad file system access(This concern might be unnecessary since I don't know how to decide an extension is safe or not.). On the other hand, running a background automation script (like inotify-tools) feels like an unnecessary workaround for a feature that could be native(I solved it via this method for now).

Is there a built-in way or a hidden config in about:config to achieve this by file type? If not, do you think it is worth opening a feature request on Mozilla Bugzilla for native file-extension-based download routing?
