Hi, I have to use Firefox 115.18.0esr (64-bit) due to depending on accessibility tools I need.

I am now finding that websites based on the Discourse Forum will not support this version of Firefox so I was wondering if anyone knows of an FF fork that might work.

I had family over at weekend and ironically none of their Apple devices could access such forums either, not on their iPhone or their iPad.

I tried to contact Discourse but of course their own site depends on the latest version of their awful forum software too.

I think that it is shocking for any website or app or other service to just cut loose disabled, elderly and those in developed countries who depend on old software.

I am still on Win7 as that is the only platform that runs the tools I depend on.

One member of my family was talking about running an Oracle Linux server in the Cloud (wherever that is) and running virtual machines (whatever they are) to allow me to run old and new, but they said that might take months to setup and could not even be certain it would work.

I find it ironic how website are designed to not lose a single user through bad design and they they cut of thousands with this archaic policy.

So I am here to ask if there is a workaround, either a fork that works with these sites or a hack of 115.18.0esr (64-bit) that makes it report that it is V142.04 or something.

Any help would be appreciated.

Never had this before from Firefox - what do I do? The ads are disturbing me!

I tried accessing Peacock but was told they only support version 127+. I checked my version is 115.xxx but says browser is up to date. What is going on?

Hello, I'm writing here since I lost hope in Microsoft's support. I've seen some other people having the same issue from like July, this problem however started with me around the end of August. Every time I try to log into my hotmail I get the screen attached. The only way to get around it is to delete the cookies/cache related to Live.com and try again. Also, right now, I have to "sign out" from my email to avoid saving cookies or cache related to my login information - otherwise, I will have to do the process again (of deleting the cache/cookies). The thing is, I've always used Firefox to check my hotmail, and I wouldn't log out of my hotmail and check back in quickly any time I want to - the process now is getting sluggish. I've contacted Microsoft (or let's just say, tried to) but I kept going in loops and never got an answer. So I'm here in hope I get any ideas (and I have a feeling that it is something from Microsoft's side and not from Firefox side because the problem occurred suddenly and not after a specific update to Firefox).

Thanks

Updated Firefox today. Lost all bookmarks,history and downloads. No icon present in header tool bar. Tried search and recovery using all available information listed under 'HELP'. NO success. Past profile storage locations are non-existent. Did a restore point on computer/ no help. I'm using windows 7 so did an upgrade as noted in Firefox notice.

I've been using Firefox for years and would hate to change. Hope recovery is possible.

Thank you, David

Recently upgraded to windows 7, and upgraded firefox to version 115. Why am I getting notices that Windows Vista is no longer supported. [upgraded from vista to 7]

Hi, I use TB 115.18.0 (32-bit) on win 7 machine. In order to transfer it to another computer I tried to copy the profile to a new disk and it failed. An error message stated that "The destination you have specified does not exist". I manually copied the profile folder, and found that the problem occurs when attempting to copy the file (no file type is given. File name is printed bolt) as follows: mozilla profiles>cc739xtg.default>mail>local folders>unsent messages. (1,835,282 KB file) Unsent messages.MSF (6KB file) was copied with no problem. I did not find a way to open unsent messages file to read its content. Unsent messages does not show in my TB folders. As far as I understand there are no unsent messages in my TB accounts. 1. How to overcome the unsent messages file copy problem? 2. Can I try to delete both unsent messages and unsent messages.msf files without damage the profile? 3. How can I open unsent messages file to read its content? Thank you for your assistance. David

Subject: "Refresh" How can I turn off the 'refresh function' when I am signed onto a session? I understand 'refresh' should work when I log off and later log back on. BUT, I find it VERY ANNOYING when 'refresh' (going back up to the 'very latest whatever') happens when I have merely stopped for a minute or so to completely read an article, or watch a short video. When that happens I cannot get 'back' to where I was because of all the 'new' stuff, even after 10 or more minutes of scrolling down as fast as I can.

 When the 'refresh' happens and I am no longer able to 'find my place', I log out and turn the computer off for several hours up to several days (which is probably better for me anyway).  Your sandbox, your rules, but there are other sandboxes I can play in, and will.

I'm trying to assist someone with a weird problem when using Facebook Chats from a Windows 10 Acer laptop. Often when they send a message, it disappears from their chat history BUT it stays in the recipients chat log. The recipient can reply to it but the original sent message stays gone from the senders history, it doesn't reappear when the recipient responds. Previous sender message history remains unaffected. Also if someone send them a message it will often disappear before they get a chance to read it, or it disappears shortly thereafter. I have tried clearing the cache etc to no avail. Any suggestions please?
