Print Size changed in Firefox and the printed page comes out very small. I have to set it to fill the page every time and it still does not fill the page. I do not want to have to save a file first before printing. If I use Control Print from a selected email I get an Error message. It still shows my printer window. It also comes out small when I click the Print icon in an email window. I'm leaving Firefox if this can't be fixed. I shouldn't have to work this hard or have difficulties with print settings in a browser.

Since FF 69 the starting (not the loading!) of websites frequently lasts more than 10 seconds under Xubuntu. The tab remains empty during this waiting time, while no sign of the loading process can be seen: The tab header shows no title, only the URL. The animated loading icon of the tab header is not shown. The status bar shows no activity. For about 5 to 20 seconds it looks like the tab is frozen. (See hardcopy.) This phenomenon occurs irregularly, but repeatedly, approximately with 10-20 percent of all calls, regardless of the requested URLs. It typically occurs piled within a random period, that lasts between a some seconds and several minutes. It also happens in safe mode, regardless of the used profile (even an unmodified new profile) and both in private an non-private windows. As far as I can judge, the troubleshooting Information shows no abnormalities. There are no issues with the internet connection. I've been using Firefox trouble-free for more than 10 years, but this phenomenon only occurred since Firefox 69.0.

Moving with my notebook computer from one WLAN to another (in another part of the building), either closed (thus in "sleep mode") or not closed, very often results in a loss of all connections. FF says that it cannot find the servers any more, while a direct "ping" or other softwares have no problem seeing and connecting to the servers.
I tried different proxy settings, but this did not change the situation. Normally the only "solution" is to close or "kill" the firefox, and after a new start also the FF finally "gets it" properly.

I had the now common "using an older version of Firefox, create new profile" to which I have now repeated the same process 3 times, then lo it all works, so happy browsing for over 3 hours, then I shut Firefox down, and then 15 minutes later open up Firefox and get told I am using an older version and need to create a new profile. Are Mozilla employing 7 year olds now?

We are using web application that uses JavaScript batch files, where one of them exceeded size of 15MB. Since then Firefox seems to evict the file from cache and always load it from the server also excluding If-Modified-Since header. When the file size is decreased to former size ( around 12MB ), caching works again as expected: file is either served from Firefox cache or If-Modified-Since header is sent in request to verify if server file changed. When I checked difference between files server, there was nothing changed except file size and content ( i.e. there is no dynamic changing of file, cache headers stay the same, ... ).
Is there some configuration setting or hard-coded limit which forces Firefox to evict larger files from cache and enforce their reloading?
Here is the list of selected response headers on mentioned file:

It shouldn't be this hard to get top sites working again. It has to be something simple preventing all top sites from being displayed.

Firefox has a serious problem. Within a few days of refreshing it, it starts to bog down and becomes noticeably slow.
I almost gave up using it, but then found the refresh function. The first time I did this, it sped things up nicely and I retained everything. Within a week, Firefox slowed down again. So, in frustration, I reset it again. This time it did strip all my settings and saved them in a folder on the desktop.
I have seen the solution that things can be copied from this profile folder into the new profile folder.
However, I have to say that from a usability perspective, this is a real fail. To ask users to selectively copy files even once is just a pain in the ass. To expect them to do it once a week (at least) in order to keep Firefox running crisply is ridiculous.
I implore the Firefox team to come up with a better solution to help users keep Firefox running smoothly. I know it's complicated and that add ons are the real issue. But there's got to be a way to make this process more user friendly. Even just a notification when the browser senses itself slowing down that points to a well written, step by step troubleshooting guide would be good.
Or perhaps a refresh that disables addons but keeps the rest of the data. That might help people more quickly realize that an addon is causing the slow down (assuming that is the case).
I don't know what the best solution, but there has got to be a better way than refreshing, losing all data, and then being expected to selectively copy information into a profile!
Thanks!

To anyone who has experience or expertise in working with the integration between Bentley Systems softwares and Firefox - especially ProjectWise WebServer,
I would like to ask why am I able to download the file with Firefox but not with other popular web-browser such as Google Chrome, Internet Explorer nor Microsoft Edge. For more technical information, the below list is the required “extension” for the browser to work correctly with ProjectWise WebServer.
- ProjectWise Web File Transfer ActiveX Control - used by any operation that downloads a file to your local web parts working directory - Bentley DGN Navigator Control - used by the ProjectWise Navigator web part - VPR ActiveX Control - used by the ProjectWise Publishing and Markup web part - Spatial ActiveX Control - used by the ProjectWise Spatial Content web part
If you may required to know more about web URL link and due to company privacy policy, I can only share the format is something like https://wsg.“companyname”.com/“server directory”
In conclusion, I would like to know what makes Firefox able to while others can’t.
Regards, Donovan

The new private network extension is very cool...when it works which is most of the time. I am running version 69.0.1 . The install was perfect. I turn on the extension and go to a website that checks your IP address. OMG, not only is my IP address an address provided by Cloudflare, Mozilla's partner, but I now have a Cloudflare IPv6 address. That was a surprise. My ISP, Verizon FIOS does not provide IPv6 but a Firefox extension does. I am happily surprised.
The problem is that for no apparent reason connections to any website will stop working. I see the TLS connection message in the lower right but the webpage doesn't load. The fix is to turn off this extension for a few seconds and then turn it back on. Everything will then work. This occurs about every five minutes.
How can I troubleshoot this?
Thanks.

I found the -no-deelevate option which let me repair the "can't drag URL's to the desktop" feature. I changed my usual shortcut to use it.
How do I change Windows 7 to ALWAYS use that command line option when starting Firefox? For example, when I click on a link in an email, Windows starts the default web browser and passes it the link. How can I alter that command line to use -no-deelevate? There are also other programs that start a browser that need this tweak.
I'm OK with editing the registry if needed, but I have no idea where to go to make this the default for any browser start in Windows? If this has to be program specific, then changing Thunderbird would be my email concern... but I'd really prefer a global solution.

Every time I try to make or receive a call it asks for permission to use microphone in Gmail Hangouts https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox . I have it set to "Allow". https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox When a call comes in or I try to make one it does not have the check mark box "Always Allow" on the little pop up window as I have seen before. I can set it to always allow by right clicking the chat window and page info, yet it keeps on asking for permission to use. -- It DOES show as being allowed both in the list in Options and when you check the page Info.
I thought maybe it has something to do with Flash ending, but when I use Hangouts on the Hangouts page: https://hangouts.google.com/ it works fine. And yes, I have removed all cookies and cache several times. Another thing I noticed is that you can't add any pages manually in the options. Not sure if that is related. Note that I use Firefox and Windows 7 .
Been searching for an answer since this started over a month ago. Thank you in advance for your help.

I use a macro on my keyboard for opening Firefox. It now simply opens the exe file. It annoys me though, that when I click the macro while Firefox is already open, it will open a new window. My preferred result would be: When Firefox is not open, open the exe file. When Firefox is open in the background, switch to Firefox but don't open a new window or tab. I already looked into the browser.link.open_newwindow tweaks but that didn't result in the wanted effect (this only seems to change link windows)
Is this possible? Thanks!

I have been using the Developer Edition for a while, and it has until now updated without problem. However after downloading and installing v70B7, on clicking the Icon to launch it it will not launch. Sometimes the Firefox menu bar shows for a second before disappearing again, and sometimes I can see (but not read) a fleeting error screen in red. I should perhaps try to fix the problem by deleting the application and reinstalling it, but I do not want to lose all my Bookmarks, which include many valuable websites. Advice on my best way forward would be appreciated!
