Hello,

We are running Roaming Profiles from our Active Directory architecture. It seems that a lot of files happen to have too long path&filename for example :

\\Serverinfo\Username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\FirefoxUserProfile\storage\default\moz-extension+++f9efba58-d1ae-40d1-993c-f56654dc34c0^userContextId=4294967295\idb\{d1ae6e36-40f7-4f62-88b9...

Do you have any idea to configure Mozilla so we keep it able to handle these filename length ?

We cant use wildcard in exclusions so we cant exclude whats in a subfolder of each profile. It's not supported by ActiveDirectory GPO.

Hope it was understandable please let me know if you need further details.

Regards, Yannick GANTOU

As the title says, all Google accounts keep getting logged out after I close the browser. However, if I am logged in with another app associated with the Google account, it doesn’t get logged out. What’s the issue here?

Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed is Unchecked

i have windows 11 24HR with netgear rs700 nighthawk wifi 7 router and im still on wifi 6 when will firefox become windows 11 as im still on firefox windows 10 this coming months the new lg g5 tv is got wifi 7 connectivity and i think sony tv also thank you

Firefox opens only to a blank page and does not function what so ever. I've tried several times refreshing it, however, nothing helps. Point of interest is Microsoft Edge won't open either and I am currently using Opera which is working fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In the last couple weeks i've encountered an issue where video footage, but not the audio or the video progress itself, will freeze if I tab out of Firefox and into a game window.

Here's a video showing the issue

Like shown in the video, It only seems to affect Firefox and not other browsers, and it only happens when I switch to a game window, not other tabs. It should also be noted that although the video only shows YouTube footage, this issue affects every player I've tested it on.

I've tried this both with and without extensions enabled, as well as just about every video player related config in the about:config page, and with both hardware acceleration on and off, still with no luck resolving the problem.

If anyone has had a similar issue and managed to fix it, help doing so for myself would be much appreciated.

For a few months I have been having sporadic issues with my cpu running at 100%. I believe Firefox is the culprit. When I open task manager Firefox is running 30 processes with power usage very high. Usually one of the top processes in the drop down is very high. To fix this I have been ending the task of the highest usage process running. In all cases that has brought the cpu down to like 10% and has fixed the issue temporarily. If I'm not at my computer for some time, it will not resolve on it's own. I'm not sure what info you need but will provide. Could this be a bug with the current version of ESR?

I have tried the fixes including: Disable/Enable Hardware Acceleration, Enable Strict Tracking Protection, Delete content-prefs.sqlite file, Check Firefox hardware acceleration, Disable resource consuming extensions and themes, etc.

I am using Firefox ESR 128.6.0 and have been for years (ESR)

Computer: Dell Optiplex 9020 1 tb SSD hard drive Inel Core I7 4790 CPU 32GB RAM AMD Radeon R& 200 series GPU

I’m getting “'Gah. Your tab just crashed’” basically every other website I open (including this one). I don’t notice anything in common with the websites I’m visiting and it’s happening in the troubleshooting/safe mode as well. I’m using the most recent version of Firefox and am running MacOS 12.6.

I am sorry if this is not the place to ask this question. I am new to web development and have been trying to solve this issue for days. I have an ESP32 acting as an http server. I have developed web pages which have separate html, css, and javascript files. These work as expected when delivered locally (i.e. I double click on the the files), however, when they are served by the ESP the style sheet is ignored and I get the message

The stylesheet (url) was not loaded because its MIME type, “text/html”, is not “text/css”.

from Firefox debugger. The stylesheet is ignore across all browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Edge), however the error is only shown in Firefox. Normally, of course, I would expect an issue on the ESP32 side, however, the non-Firefox browsers do load the stylesheet (even tough they ignore it) and I am able to verify that the stylesheet is identical to the one served locally.

Oddly, if I open a Firefox tab and load the page, switching to developer mode causes several requests for the stylesheet and the styles are then applied. Subsequent refreshes of the page causes the style to be lost and closing/opening developer mode has no effect.

Although I have disabled javascript to try fix this problem, when javascript is loaded I get a similar message (except the javascript is loaded).

I believe I specified the MIME type because I exactly coped several examples

<meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css"> <title>My ESP32</title> Thanks for the help!

Hi Community,

I am writing as recently I noticed that extreme amount of data was written on my system SSD. Here we are talking about 100-200GB of data written daily. In resource monitor I found that Firefox is writing this amount of data in its Profiles folder, but only when Facebook's main page is open. I also noticed that when only the Messenger part is open the problem goes away. Currently I symlinked the Profiles folder onto one of my HDDs so the data is being written there, however I would like to know if anyone experienced the same issue and what could be the solution for this. I completely reinstalled Firefox, my installed extensions are Adblock Plus, Enhancer for youtube and Facebook Container.

I'm using Firefox 134.0.2 (64-bit) and Windows 11. I have my taskbar set to Never Combine. I don't use tabs. I recently got a new computer with Win 11 and am noticing this issue:

Let's say I have a bunch of Firebox windows open and I want to close a window towards the right of the screen. My normal method is to right click on that Firefox taskbar window and click Close Window. But now when I right click on the Firefox icon in the taskbar, the pop up dialog box doesn't appear near my mouse cursor, instead it appears in the middle of the screen, away from my mouse cursor. It used to appear right near my mouse cursor. How can I get the pop up dialog box to appear near my mouse cursor again? See picture.

I only have 2 extensions: Adblock Plus and New Tab Override. I tried disabling both, but it didn't fix my issue.

Thanks!

I have my settings configured so that when I close the window with all my current tabs, I can reopen it and have the same exact window saved after closing them and shutting down my computer. This has worked perfectly fine until a week ago. Now when I start up my computer and open firefox, the window opens briefly and then closes on its own. I've checked and theres no crash reports. Each time this happens I open firefox again and get a completely new window and I have to go into history recently closed windows to get the original window open and then take great care to make sure the other window is closed first. The first time this happened I was really unfortunate and lost tabs I had opened for years. I would really like a functioning browser again.

During multiple attempts searching for map directions, the site tries to load, but fails. The transition area view remains blank, and the content inside the address field blinks.

I also have a screen recording, but I don't know how to include it here. Can i get advice on that?

I've used Firefox for many years. The past month or so weather radar doesn't come up on multiple weather sites, pages are slow to load or don't load, getting error codes on video's, pictures don't always load, and many other problems. I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed the current browser and I still have all these problems. I'm having to use another browser now. I run Windows 11 on my PC.

Hi. I had an issue with my wifi router yesterday and needed to reset it a couple of times. It's been fine for everything but using Firefox on my Macbook. 90% of the time, it doesn't work. I will reset the computer's connection to my WiFi, and it will load one or two tabs, but then it will stop working. The error I get is a he "Hmm. We're having trouble finding that site" error.

I reset my computer. Nada. Reset Firefox. Nada. I got rid of Hardware Acceleration. Nada. Chrome works on my laptop and Firefox works on my other devices so I do think it must be an issue with Firefox. Does anyone have any idea what I should do.

Recently I have noticed that my SEND box was not being updated right away. As if there was some kind of delay. I have also some send message that do not show in my SEND box despite being sent and received by the recipient. I have Version 128.6.0esr (64-bit) Any idea?

When accessing www.gsp.ro and scrolling up and down it feels very choppy like a frame rate drop down.

The issue doesn't seem to happen in another browser or accessing different websites with Mozilla.

My Subject: Thunderbird Performance Issue on New Ubuntu LTS PC

Hello,

We are experiencing a performance issue with Thunderbird on a new PC running Ubuntu LTS Linux. We have two PCs with Ubuntu installed, one with the last and one with the current LTS:

On older, less powerful device where Thunderbird runs significantly better. A new PC with better hardware, more RAM more CPU cores etc where Thunderbird is extremely slow.

Both PCs are configured with the same email accounts. We did fully copy profile frm old to new to not lose any mails. However, on the new device, Thunderbird causes full CPU utilization after startup and becomes unresponsive for a considerable amount of time, every time we start. Working with it is almost impossible and painful.

Here’s what we’ve tried so far on the new PC:

Running Thunderbird in Safe Mode. Reinstalling Thunderbird without using Docker. (apk and bash commands) Unfortunately, neither of these steps resolved the issue. We suspect the problem might be related to the current Ubuntu LTS version. As already told the old computer outperformes the new one abt thunderbird.

Has anyone else experienced a similar problem or found a solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated. What or how to test next?

Any more detail needed? I might get the hardware specs and mailbox sizes but as said newer computer is slower and mailboxes are the same.

Thank you!

Michael
