This question is about a specific Firefox add on. I have not used extensions or add ons previously and am concerned about the safety of the one I want to upload: Claude Conversation Capture.

The page says it will require permission to Download files and read and modify the browser’s download history (which is fine) and Access your data for all websites (which scares the heck out of me.)

How can I safeguard my privacy and data to prevent a breach and maintain proper security if I download this add on?

Can anyone help with this please? The add on would be extremely useful but not at the expense of my security and privacy.

FWIW I am #notageek and very tech challenged, so please explain anything I need to know in ordinary language I can understand (will be greatly appreciated.)

Thank you!

Why most extensions (addons) are not updated for last 2 years that are under "Recommended extensions"?

I checked many, not all, are updated since 2022 and 2023. Chrome updates them and allows them to be usable with newer versions of Chrome and other browsers that support Chrome extensions.

And same addons on Chrome extension store are updated but not on Firefox addon store.

Is Firefox not focusing on security and updates anymore?

When enabling advanced user mode in uBlock Origin, a matrix of elements is presented when opening the dashboard. The matrix allows selecting either a gray noop or red block configuration. But prior to selecting noop or block, there is a black background. If neither noop nor block is selected, what is the black background doing?

I'm trying to add the "current" (5.23.13 Oct '24) Nordpass extension to a computer (where I had successfully added it just a week ago, under another account)... but when I searched extensions yesterday, only the older/Legacy version of Nordpass (4.33.10 Nov '22) is shown in the results. Searched from a couple other computers that I manage, all only show the Old/Legacy Nordpass extension.

cna you tell me why Down load helper no longer seems to work. when I first open a pge the download icon appears in full colour and then fades to grey and won't recognise you tube videos is this something you can fix

why is it that ever since the FORCED update crap, i can no longer have ad blockers? why am i now FORCED to watch ads for videos as short as 1 minute 52 seconds?

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH YOU GUYS AT MOZILLA? firefox USED TO BE something i would recommend to people but, now that i can no longer have facebook container, any ad blockers or anything else for privacy, i dont see no reason to recommend firefox any longer. if i have to continue waiting 10-15 minutes for a 5 minute video to load just so the ads can load first, and i can no longer have ANY privacy online, there is no need for me to continue using firefox because i can go through the EXACT SAME BULLCRAP USING google or internet explorer, i can have the SAME amount of time and bandwidth WASTED on ads as using google or internet explorer.

i got a message from you guys saying i HAD NO CHOICE but to update or not be able to use the internet, i tried, then you guys sent me the message that i can NOT update for windows 7 (even though your site said windows 7 CAN get the up to date firefox web browser) because my computer is TOO DAM OLD! WHY THE HELL DO YOU LIE TO PEOPLE LIKE THAT! NOT EVERYONE CAN AFFORD THE COST OF A NEW COMPUTER EVERY TIME WE TURN AROUND! ESPECIALLY US WHO ARE DISABLED AND ARE ON A FIXED INCOME!

IF I WANTED TO WATCH SO MANY ADS, I WOULD GET A SATELITE DISH AND WATCH THE PARAMOUNT NETWORK!

NO privacy while web browsing? so you guys are just letting facebook track me online now! what the hell?? not to mention 300 ADS instead of seeing what my friends post to face book or the pages i am following!

want me top stay with you guys for a web browser? then i need the ad blockers add-ons and privacy ad-ons back!

ps. word of mouth spreads pretty fast!

Dear Firefox Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am trying to contact the technical support team for the "Video Downloader Helper" extension, which is listed and recommended on the Firefox browser. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find their contact information on your website.

Could you help me locate their support details or direct me to the appropriate resource? I would greatly appreciate your help in this matter.

Thank you for your time and assistance. Arvind Virmani

Hello 1) How can I stop Google pop-ups? Each time I open a homepage that requires a log-in, a Google pop-up is disturbing and presses me to log-in via Google. This is harassment. I do not want to be harassed. 2) Firefox support: Each time I would like to get an answer, that is what I want, when I ask for support, I have do a lot of work until I get the bottom to contact you. Time is money, for me too. Where is the direct button to ask? 3) When I got an answer from you, is there a way I can store my questions and your answers? Asking and getting an answer by E-mail would be a good solution, but as I learned e-mail is not allowed to contact you. Kind regards, Ernst Kupfer.

I paid for the adblock premium and now youtube is not even skipping the ads, they just play and firefox doesnt seem to be blocking anything. it was actually better before i paid anything, this feels very scammy. wth is happening?

No extension is being added in the mozilla browser. It just gets stuck at the download step, and processing keeps happening at the same point. Can you guide me on what the issue might be and how i can resolve this issue? Or is this browser just bad, and I should switch to another one?

I would like to know how do I set the DuckDuckGo browser extension on Firefox, to open YouTube videos? I do not use the DDG browser because I can't use talk to text on it. If it ever gets an update where I can use it, I will use it. For now the extension is fine but I would like to know how to open the videos because when I click on a video in my search results it does nothing

for one thing i can hardly see what i am typing because, although i have Dark Reader turned on, it isn't functioning for this process, ie asking a question?

How can i make dark reader work everywhere, on all sites?

ALSO it does seem highly ironic that it doesn't work here!

appreciate any help on this, thanks!

Dear Madam or Sirs

I use VPN to log on the Youtube, and I have the licence of Video Downloadhelper. But I can't download the video from YouTube. Can you tell me how down the video from YouTube.

Look forward to hear from you

I have AdBlock installed. It's the only add-on. Recently, I keep getting domains where I've told AdBlock to allow ads asking me to allow ads every time. AdBlock shows as being stopped on those sites.

Is there some hidden blocker in Firefox I need to shut down?
