After a recent update, firefox has sometimes started shifting my currently-active tab to the end of the list when I click on it. It's messing up my organization, especially when I click on something in a tab group, because when it gets moved to the end, it removes it from the tab group. Any idea how to disable this? I can't find a setting for it.

I use the middle button only for toggling auto-scrolling on and off, or at least that's what I want to do.

That works, unless I mistakenly (often) click the button while over a hyperlinked image or link. In that case, the link opens in a new tab which disrupts my workflow.

How can I set up the mouse in FireFox so that clicking the middle button will ONLY toggle scrolling on and off and never open a link that may happen to be under the cursor?

I've been looking for a solution for this online for ages, and hope there is a setting for this. It's a frustration many times daily.

I have been using Firefox for the last 5 years, I have been content with their services and for that reason I keep using it. Lately I had computer issues so I had to reset my computer and start over this includes Firefox as well. Anyhow because of my lifestyle i do different things like school work, farming, and other stuff. Windows has a feature called "Desktops" this feature is very handy to me as it lets me organize my tabs and windows base on the topic like school or work, (To illustrate this I included a picture of how I have it organize.) well, sometimes my computer shuts down by accident or intentional. Regardless if it was shut down by accident or not, I would boot my computer up and lunch Firefox, and Firefox would open my tabs and windows in the Desktop that It was previously at. For example, I would have all of my school related tabs and windows in the School Desktop, and all of my Work related stuff in the work Desktop, after booting Firefox would automatically place my tabs windows in those compartments, well now Firefox doesn't do that anymore and it is frustrating because every time I boot my computer up after an update or a restart, when Firefox is lunch Firefox will place all of my tabs and windows in the first Desktop, and this is frustrating because every time that happens I have spend time on sorting my tabs out to the right compartment, and to be honest I'm getting sick and tired of doing it because i lose time. So to anyone who reads this, can you please help me figure out what is wrong, because if it is a setting then that's is understandable but if it is Firefox then it would break my heart because as an user and a fan It would break my heart to stop using Firefox as my primary app.

I love the Autofill feature but recently it has gone haywire! Instead of filling in First name: Eleanor Last name: van den Heuvel which is correctnor van, my first name appears as Eleanor van and the last name as Heuvel!

I've checked on edit the address but I can't see how to correct it. Can you help?

Updated recently from (I believe) 138.04 to 139.0.1, and immediately noticed that the size of font (and icons) had changed in the folders I have in the bookmark toolbar, that is they are much smaller and thus also less space between. Why this, and is it possible to change the size, without changing something else?

It's possible that many don't have folders in the toolbar and thus don't notice, but I have 2-3 apart from bookmarks.

I remember a change many versions ago that increased the space between entries in the bookmark menu, and also in the bookmark toolbar folders. That was too much and I found a setting [in config] that could be changed to decrease the space back then. (I haven't looked for that solution now, probably have some doc somewhere, and won't bother searching since this is different. Same with this case; I did some quick initial search but found next to nothing and older. BTW, this is one of the downsides of changes like these and similar; the day you have too move to another OS version, i.e. reinstall everything you also have to keep documentation of all these little changes, apart from all the other things you'll have to export or save.)

When i browse using Firefox it has started to recommend I install extensions and use other Firefox features. This is entirely unwelcome and unwanted. It feels suspicious to be suggested third party software, and it feels invasive to get contextual feature suggestions. Please stop these spam advertisements.

our VPN was updated and is now giving me a CONSTANT repeating notification "Firefox" browser does not have private browsing permission, please enable "Run in Private Windows" in WebFilter extension option. I looked but did not see this option. where would it be, and/or what can i do about this, it's driving me nuts, lol, thanks in advance, I LOVE FIREFOX!!!

when I click the middle mouse button (wheel)to open the bookmark, it jumps straight to a new window, despite the option When you open a link, image or media in a new tab, switch to it immediately" not being active in settings.

I'm only seeing this on a (Windows 11) laptop that connects via a proxy server. The proxy settings are greyed-out (unmodifiable), set to use system proxy settings.

When there are changes to the network, Firefox closes without me doing anything. When I re-open it, there's no indication of a problem. Is there anywhere to view events that might have triggered the browser closing?

Aside from troubleshooting mode, which I'll try, is there anything else I should do/check?

I'm trying to configure Firefox using AutoConfig as described in this support article, Customize Firefox using AutoConfig.

However, I can't get Firefox to read the firefox.cfg file.

Details:

• Firefox version: 139.0.1 (64-bit)
• Build ID: 20250529122813
• Source: Built from https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-release/rev/e7720952908c6d50d8747132d1bb3e6424f8d9a5

Here's what I've set up:

  pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg");
  pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);

2. firefox.cfg is in "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\" and begins with "//".

Questions:

• Does AutoConfig still work in the official Mozilla Firefox release (not ESR)?
• Is there a launch option or environment variable required to enable it?
• Is there any way to troubleshoot if firefox.cfg is not being read?

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

How do I set the display screen to show just ONE page width without having to scroll right or left to see the entire text line. I want to have the text wrap to the next line when it reaches the displayed window width.

Until recently the Firefox docs described how to use the CDP-based Remote Agent at [this url](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/remote/cdp/Usage.html), now defunct. Here is the latest archive version I can find from the end of last year: https://web.archive.org/web/20241126214503/https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/remote/cdp/Usage.html

One usage example looked like this:

% firefox --remote-debugging-port DevTools listening on ws://localhost:9222/devtools/browser/7b4e84a4-597f-4839-ac6d-c9e86d16fb83

I have tried the same but get no websocket address returned:- ``` % firefox-esr Mozilla Firefox 128.11.0esr ``` ``` % firefox-esr -h ... ... --remote-debugging-port [<port>] Start the Firefox Remote Agent,

                    which is a low-level remote debugging interface used for WebDriver
                    BiDi and CDP. Defaults to port 9222.

... ... ```

`% firefox-esr --remote-debugging-port` command exits with nothing returned

I have `remote.active-protocols` set to 3 in my Firefox prefs.

Please advise how I get the Remote Agent to return a websocket address for use with BiDi with FF 128. My OS is Debian-based Linux.

TIA

OK I have been trying to stop Firefox from adding proton.me to the Manage Cookies & Site Data folder. Let me be clear this is happening when I start the computer WITHOUT ever opening Protonmail or touching the desktop shortcut to login to Protonmail What I have tried Under Manage Exceptions I added https://account.proton.me and set it to Block all that did was prevent me from logging in to protonmail OK lets try Allow for Session and YES I did uncheck Site settings What happens is Protonmail still shows up in Cookies & Site Data Folder AFTER doing correct closing of Firefox with the X in the upper right I have done this twice. Real Question why do you need to add the cookie to FF or why are you not deleting the cookie when I close FF and better yet I have not touched Protonmail and YOU are adding a cookie this one makes me real unhappy

Lately on firefox 115.24.0esr (64-bit) running on windows 7 settings in startpage.com keeps resetting, I think this was a bug going around even microsoft Edge had to fix it, this means firefox must be the issue because it was working before and I never deleted the cookies or site data.
