I have been having problems with firefox lately. Every time I try to run the program it automatically closes without giving an error message. I am running Windows 10 and this happens in safe mode as well. I have tried doing a clean install of firefox - that did not fix the problem. I tried deleting my profile after uninstalling then doing a fresh install, this did not fix the problem either. I ran a virus scan and did not detect any malware. I don't know what else to try.

At the end of each day I select "history" and "delete recent history." Then I click the "today" tab and execute the delete (I keep a small number of older cookies because I want them there, but I want everything added today to go away). But not all of the cookies from today's activity are being deleted. Why is this? How can I fix it? (I am using Firefox 71.0 on Windows 10. My only plug-in is U-Block.)

Been trying to open yahoo mail as I need it on a computer not on the phone. I use it every day plenty of times on the phone and laptop. Today I can't open it. Firefox says theres an update, so I download it. I then have to verify my firefox account with my email...of which I cannot open. Yet again another stupid update poorly researched and executed. No doubt I will be told its my fault because I dont have update 72.3.56.786 or install 234.3987.2 or some crap no one would ever know about

When writing in a field, misspelled words should be marked. It works but also parts of words that are not misspelled are also highlighted. If I write a statistic as an example, it is marked in the quotation marks "tatistic". The word is spelled correctly, but parts of the word are still highlighted. As I write this text, 70% of parts of the words are misspelled. The whole words are not marked, only parts of them. When I select the correct word to replace the wrong s "tatistic" it is like this: sstatistic. You can no longer use the spelling because it becomes so marked that I do not see what is misspelled. This problem started when version 71.0 was installed. I use Swedish language and test switching to other dictionaries but the same error continues. What to do about this?

I have issues with my mousewheel so I like to press Middleclick to open this circle, in which I then move my mouse up or down to scroll. It's also called "Auto Scroll".
The trouble is, when you activate it on a link, it opens a new tab instead of activating auto scroll. So thats when I disabled that in about:config. I set browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick to false.
But not what it does is it opens a new window. And I don't know how to disable that.
Do any of you know a workaround? I know there are extensions for this but I really really like the basic Autoscroll.

All of a sudden, holding down the mouse button and scrolling the mouse wheel wont resize the webpages anymore. Not sure what happened, if it was an update on an add-on or what? How can I fix it? I tried disabling the add-on I thought could've caused the problem (Zoom Page WE), but that didn't fix it. It's Alienware 15R4, Windows 10 Home Edition, Version 1903, with Firefox 71.0 64 bit.

Overnight (I changed nothing, but microsoft rebooted my computer and I don't see any new files installed or updates) Firefox will not work. I can see it start up in task manager (two processes) but within 1 second both are gone. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox. Same problem. This is Windows 10 v 1909. Firefox will not start in safe mode. I cannot find any crash files (in the past month).

When I try to login to my account on U.S. Cellular, it immediately takes me to another page that says, "It's not you, it's us. An error has occurred, and we can't display this page right now." .. except that it isn't. I can get there fine using either Vivaldi or Google Chrome, but going to the login page with Firefox takes me right back to the error page. Though I have other browsers on my laptop, I'd rather not have to use them. What is going on with Firefox?
How to change the picture-in-picture default monitor?

71's new picture-in-picture feature could be useful, but I can't find any way to control which monitor the video is played on. It seems to always open on Windows' 1st monitor, which for me is almost always turned off. Of course Windows in it's infinite wisdom will not let you choose which monitor is number 1. This basically makes the feature useless. :( So, is there some setting somewhere in the about:config where I can control which monitor is default? I can't find an obvious one, at least. EDIT: I was wrong. It doesn't always open the video on the 1st monitor. It just always opens the video on the monitor to the left of the one the browser is on. :D

Hello, There used to be a difference between watching a video in fullscreen mode via firefox or having the browser itself in fullscreen mode. After updating from 70 to 71 I can only get the latter to work.
- Tried different video hosting sites it doesn't make a difference
- they are not flash videos (that plugin is permanently disabled in my browser)
When clicking e.g. on the little sign on the bottom right of a youtube video that used to put that video in fullscreen showing ONLY the video on my entire screen now I get the video with firefox tabbar and adressbar visible. Super annoying!
On another note I just got that "picture in picture" feature which isn't working at all, when i click on it a little window opens for a second only to be immediately closed again and clicking on the "pip-button" visible on the video has no function or effect anymore. Don't know if that's related at all. Really should know better than to update firefox I can't remember the last time I did without breaking something and spending hours or days trying to find a solution I'm just tired of it...
Greetings and thanks for any tips Edit: starting in safe-mode doesn't change any of it

Recently I bought a new PC, installed Firefox on it, logged in with my account and synced all of my bookmarks and add-ons, etc My wife is now working on my old PC, therefore I removed all old programs and installed just the basic stuff she always uses. She's also created her own account after installing the latest version of Firefox. I didn't rename the computer, only her Windows useraccount. Also created a new profile, that doesn't help either because bookmarks keep getting synced between two different accounts each on a different PC and I don't seem to get it right. Looked at the different devices that should sync under each account, that seems to be OK. But everytime I make a change in the bookmarks on one of the PC's with it's own account the other one also gets changed under that different account. Can someone help me by taking it step by step, so I can understand what it is I am doing wrong?

I recently got a new computer and installed firefox. Every time the computer restarts, it wants me to log in for the sync feature ("Reconnect to Firefox Account" appears under options with an exclamation point). This did not happen on my old computer, so this is weird because all I've done is reinstalled firefox with the exact same settings/addons as before. This is my personal desktop computer so I don't want to have to re-log in every restart.

When I install Quantum fresh, my pages have a grey or light tan color in the background. If I copy over my User Locsl and roaming Mozilla folders from a prior install the colors revert back to the (lighter) backgrounds closer to a white.
Is the a particular file that controls screen colors in Firefox so that I do not have to copy over the entire folders?

Could you please consider making the screenshot feature remember the previous save directory in the same way as saving downloaded files does? I love that implementation ("browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite") and having it applied to saving screenshots would save me (and others!) a lot of clicking. :) It could be an opt-in feature, if needed.
Thanks for making the best browser!
