I hope to add the feature of opening local HTML files to Firefox Android version. Firefox used to support this feature in the past, but it was removed after the release of Firefox Daylight, which was restructured. Firefox supports opening PDF files, but it does not support opening HTML files, although opening HTML files is closer to the browser's function than opening PDF files.

Good day, The issues that I am encountering are explained below. The solution found after hours of research is uBlock Origin : https://ublockorigin.com/. Do you know which filters and rules should be applied to exclude the Wikimedia Foundation and all of its derivatives from the results provided by my search engine? Please share your knowledge. Sincerely. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I am utilizing Firefox ESR 128.10 desktop version on the Linux operating system. I wish to conduct research on the internet, utilizing the Startpage search engine. I would like to exclude the following sites from my search results: wikipedia.org, the Wikimedia Foundation, and any affiliated websites, regardless of the language or location settings configured.

What is the correct approach to establish a customized Startpage search profile excluding all Wikimedia Foundation sites? What is the proper setting to create a persistent and customized search engine configuration that excludes all Wikimedia Foundation domains even after an operating system update or reinstallation? Is it permitted to manually manage a customized search engine?

I have been advised to utilize an add-on or create a dedicated profile.

What would be the most suitable solution in my case, and the one that will be the most effective and stable ?

It is unfortunate that mozilla-firefox does not appear to offer a 'blacklist' or exclusion list feature, as that would be the most direct approach to excluding the Wikimedia Foundation websites from the search results.

I thank you kindly for all of your suggestions and responses to come. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Others have mentioned this but I'm not sure if there is a fix/anything is being done. The threads are all from previous Thunderbird versions.

I use Thunderbird for work. I have to find specific emails and folders - get to them quick. I am no longer able to do this. It's really distressing.

This is something really basic, that should be the default or else really easy to change.

I'm on a Windows machine and using Thunderbird 140.3.0esr. I've been using Thunderbird since 2003 and never had any problems. Now I'm panicking!

My system memory is reading at 57% right now in task manager, that the vast majority of that is being used by Firefox.

Why?

Normally, this would be called a flaw in the program, not the user, as all I have done in regards to settings is "keep tabs previous open when re-opening Firefox" and "Do not automatically update" because Firefox took it upon itself to not re-open my previous tabs on the last update.

Why is this program eating up all of that memory? I have "Firefox (15)" in Task manager under "Apps" and then 13 more instances of Firefox in "Backround Processes"

Wtf?

Have a folder on my yahoo webmail account with >100K emails accumulated over time. The emails are of no lasting value

I just received a notification (via a banner on yahoo webmail when I log in) that my storage is full (never seen this before, but not surprised that Yahoo would be looking for "additional storage" revenue - not interested.)

I'm attempting to delete the emails in this (large) folder (which are of no lasting value), so far with no success.

The initial problem is that yahoo's functions to expunge (permanently remove) the emails (after moving them to their trash folder) does not work (either 0% progress overnight, or progressing 0-100% progress, in either case all of the emails remain in their trash folder and I continue to be notified (by the banner at sign-in) that email storage is full (and I do not wish to purchase any additional storage from yahoo.) As this is a non-premium yahoo account, no support exists.

It appears that yahoo webmail does not expose their trash folder via imap (it appears empty on imap view). Thunderbird "empty trash" on the hosted Trash folder shows no contents and completes immediately with "emptied trash".

I've now tried moving emails from yahoo's trash folder to another (new) folder on yahoo webmail, then using thunderbird imap to move those emails from yahoo to a local folder. My expectation was that "move" means gone from server, present on client. That appears not to be the case.

While this step does create a local copy, a copy appears to be left in yahoo's trash folder which still cannot be removed, so the core problem (of their impact on yahoo webmail storage) is unresolved.

I understand that "expunge" exists in IMAP but I don't see how this can be used with Thunderbird.

As I'm somewhat going in circles trying to solve this problem, I'm reaching out here for advice.

Thanks

My Sent folder disappeared. How do I restore the folder with the sent messages still intact. Or, at the least, just restore an empty Sent folder. The In-Box, Drafts, and Trash are still there.

All the settings are correct, and it seems that because there's no Sent folder I cannot send an email. When I try to send a message I get the attached Error.

My local phone company routes email through Yahoo Mail, then to Thunderbird. It was all working fine until my Sent folder disappeared. Now because of the missing Sent folder I have to create the email message in Thunderbird saving it in Drafts so I have a record. Then, I have to copy it and send it from Yahoo Mail. Needless to say this is a pain in the you know what.

Can someone please provide the instructions to get my Sent folder back?

Thanks,

Tess

Could you please let me know the steps to execute to somehow switch from the ESR version to the current normal version without loosing settings, bookmarks or ending up with problems? Thanks in advance.

       Safety Tips: This sends you occasional online safety tips from Mozilla.
   It is your responsibility to protect your online accounts using strong and different passwords, security questions, two-factor authentication, password managers, and other safety measures. Although Firefox Monitor and Have I Been Pwned?Opens in new window strive to have current data, there is no guarantee that either will have complete or timely records of all public data breaches.
   (d) Firefox Notes lets you take notes in Firefox. A Mozilla account is required to view, edit, and delete your Notes across devices.
