i don't know is it just me? i have used forums all over the web and to post a new question, you just click on the "New Post" button or something similar.
why is it here in Firefox, that button is not there? you have to jump thru several layers of questions and answers before being able to post a question like this one!!
To the firefox forum maintainers, please create a "New Post" button instead of forcing us thru several layers of questions.

How to identify the element(s) of an email that triggers the scam detector

I know how scam detection works. Sometimes an email from a legitimate source is flagged as a scam. That's ok, but sometimes I need to identify exactly the point(s) where the scam detector found the problem, in order to suggest the sender to change. Often it is a simple typo in the footer that makes the link different from the text, and it is good if the sender changes its footer.
The point is that, to do this, I need to open the email source and visually replicate the job done by the scam detector. Is there a way to spot the problem with the help of the scam detector itself? An Add-on maybe?

Hi, In a Citrix desktop environment, we've installed Firefox as the default browser. When updates are available, users get the popup when opening the browser that an update is waiting. But they can't install the update since the Citrix desktop is a locked environment in which they can only run the apps we allow them to run. We also certainly don't want users to start updating firefox by themselves.
The popup always generates a number of servicedesk calls, but we can't spend the manpower in updating our Citrix environment everytime firefox has an update.
Is there an option to disable the popup?

I have this problem. One of my customers receives an e-mail from a governament branch every month. In this e-mail there's an hypertext link that they have to click in order to get to a web page where they will download a file. If you click on this link nothing happens, if you right click and try to copy the address nothing happens as well. On the other hand on the same e-mail there's a link to the site of this governament branch. This link works without any problem. I have tried to forward this e-mail to another program and there the link works. I have tried a lot of solutions (I made sure to have a default browser, that there are no HTTP HTTPS default programs set in thunderbird and a lot of other solutions). Note: if you hover over the link that doesn't work, in the bottom left corner of thunderbird nothing appears, while if you do the same with the working link the same link appears. What should I do? (sorry for my english, it's not my first Language)

Lately I've noticed that pages loaded in non-active tabs do not update or do not work properly. For example my bank's page: I enter the URL, press ENTER and click to another tab waiting for it to load, but when I return it has not advanced. Until I keep it active it does not load. The same goes for Twitter for example, until I click the tab does not update the feed.
Before did not happen to me. Is there any preference that I control it?
Thanks

I can't open html files with Firefox. They open with Windows Media Player instead. When I try choose Firefox to open the html file, Firefox is not listed in the RECOMMENDED PROGRAMS or OTHER PROGRAMS list (see image), and when I BROWSE for it, and select the Firefox.exe, nothing happens.
In SET YOUR DEFAULT PROGRAMS, Firefox has a Windows Media Player icon and says FIREFOX MICROSOFT WINDOWS (see image).
In ASSOCIATE A FILE TYPE OR PROTOCOL WITH A PROGRAM (see image), when I select CHANGE PROGRAM I am unable to associate Firefox with html files.
I have tried deleting the Firefox entry from REGISTRY EDITOR:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RegisteredApplications
I have also tried uninstalling Firefox, and then deleting the folder:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
And then restarting my PC and installing the latest Firefox as administrator.

Hi, I'm in a corporate enviroment and I've deployed Firefox ESR. For a special project, I need to avoid that users can set "Use Acrobat for open PDF". In other words, I need to force firefox to use always the pdf preview inside firefox and never let the user to change this. I've looked at GPO but nothing found. Can I use pref.js or other things to reach that?
thanks

I updated to Firefox 66 on Linux yesterday. I don't know if it's the browser version, but I noticed that nytimes.com started picking up that I'm browsing the site in private mode.
Interestingly, this is something that used to happen on my Chrome book when I used private mode, but this on Firefox, this is a first for me. It may well be that nytimes changed their code to do this, but I wonder upgrade to FF 66 contributed to this.
In any case, I wonder how a site can pick up if the user is browsing in private mode.

Hello there,
Due to the work-related reasons I need to test my page compatibility on older versions of browsers. But as I am trying to open dev tools, no window/sidebar shows up, regardless the way I am trying to access it: by using the key shortcut, clicking "inspect element" or choosing from the window menu. I have noticed, that the versions with this issues are in particular 52.0 to 52.2 (on 52.3 I can open the dev tools normally).
I have downloaded those versions from Mozilla archive. What's more, the behaviour can be observed on two different computers - one with OSX and the other with Windows 10. Both systems are up-to-date. Any ideas what could I do? I can't seem to find any similar issue on the forum/stackoverflow.

I have post this questions a week ago but there is no response of my questions. I re-post it and hope someone could help to resolve the problem. The firefox v.65 crash , usually after 3o mins, when I have the new brought photoshop elements 2019 program running in the background. After crashed I try to restore the tab. However, firefox crash again right after restart and restore the tab. If I keep trying to restore the tab. The firefox has no response and freeze. A error message come out " video driver failed to restart ....... Sometime the computer get into blue screen and die. i find that the problem also happen with Microsoft Edge browser too. I google the possible issue of the crash and get some information regarding the crash. It may be cause by the photoshop element face detection feature use too much memory to run the program or the program has memory leak problem that cause firefox crash.
I did check my computer RAM memory and PC window system files. they did not show any error. I refresh firefox and reinstall my video driver. However, it make no change of the crash situation. The firefox crash and Blue screen die issues only happen if I run my photoshop element and premier 2019 program at the same time. Adobe support said that it was not photoshop element program problem for the firefox crash.
I want to find out what is the root problem of the crash and how to fix it. I also want to know any known issue firefox crash assoicated with photoshop elements program.

Since the last update to Firefox, cause it wanted to bugged me NON STOP, every time I restart my PC Firefox act's like it crashed giving me the " sorry. we’re having trouble getting your pages back. " and just not after starting the PC up and letting it sit there I saw a pop up saying Firefox has crashed even tho it was NEVER OPEN, but i guess something in 65.0.2 causing Firefox to run when the system boot that then crashes EVERY TIME. No crash report is saved as far as i can see tho.
New page no longer opens full page, leaves space at bottom

Started about a week ago - some pages do not open at "full page" size as they used to, but leave a gap at the bottom of about 3/8", where part of the background page shows through. This is where the Task Bar pops up from the bottom, but I keep it hidden. I can get an instant fix for ONE PAGE at a time by clicking "Restore Window" on the top bar, but this is NOT a permanent fix.
Ubuntu 16.04, 64 bit
This is not all pages, or even most pages, just enough to be annoying.
I rely on full page displays (WITH the page headings, etc.), so this is important to me.
I have a second identical machine in another location that DOES NOT have this problem.
How do I fix this?

Hi, I have been a long time Firefox user and love it like hell, the only thing that forces me out of FF is this, Whenever I am working on Google Docs it can't copy paste with right click. I know I can use CTRL + C and CTRL + V but this is not always possible for me. I have read somewhere its because of FF security reasons or something but please let us have an option to enable this, at least on the sites that we trust. I would really appreciate if anyone can help. I tried About:Config tricks and they don't work. Please help.
