The situation is like this: I once reinstalled Edge, and then Firefox disappeared from the default browser options in Windows settings. No matter what I do, I can't make it appear again and set it as default browser. I want to ask if there's any solution, apart from reinstalling the browser,because I have a lot of data in the browser and I'm afraid backing it up and transferring it won't be convenient.

why is there no option in the settings for opening new taps to go to home page?? i do not like the look of your Firefox home page.. it confuses me when it throws my search to the top, as if i have the ( https:// ) crap..

Hello, is it possible to disable or alter the hotkey for viewing source? It is overriding my config for gtk-3.0, settings.ini, where gtk-key-theme-name=emacs. While I do have the emacs keybindings go to start of line, go to end of line, and delete to end of line but not this (personally) most used hotkey. I looked in about:config for source, but those appear to only modify the tab/window/editor which the source is viewed in, but not the shortcut to reach it. It does work for most of my applications, except fltk-based ones and ones where the application sets its own macro overriding the gtk config.

Why is there in about:config no reference to documentation of the displayed settings?

e.g. browser.chrome.toolbar_tips.hide_on_keydown

What is it? What is the meaning of the values? What is the default value? Why do we have to guess?

It is probably documented somewhere (I hope). Why is there no reference to it in about:config?

I was able to login with my password. I got a notice popup from Fox Fire saying that I should change my PW. My PW is old. I do not understand why I received this message. Maybe tech could check my setup to make sure everything is working correctly. Thanks Lois Stiles [edited] E-mail [edited] [edited]

The setting "Open links in tabs instead of new windows" and middlemouse.openNewWindow in about:config will not fix this issue: when using middle mouse on the bookmarks in the bookmarks bar, it will automatically switch the foreground tab to the new opened bookmark which is not great. The combination of the previously 2 mentioned settings will allow hyperlinks and such to work fine, but not on bookmarks. this makes it tedious when I wanna just have something ready in the background.

I went from Chrome to Firefox several months ago when I discovered that Firefox would automatically reopen all open tabs from previous session. I always put my pc in "sleep" mode at night. This morning it wouldn't "wake up" so I held the power button down until it shut down (Windows 11). Then I hit the power button and it started fine. I opened Firefox (Version 333.0) and all my tabs were gone. My wife uses Firefox on her Mac laptop and the same thing happened to her. She put her laptop to sleep last night and this morning all her tabs were gone.

After 3 hours of restoring my tabs, i went to settings and the option for Firefox to reopen all tabs from previous session was grayed out and clicking the circle next to it didn't do anything.

I am assuming this was caused by a Firefox update and am hoping someone has a fix for this. I'd hate to go back to Chrome, but I can't live with spending three hours of each day restoring tabs. I'd appreciate and be eternally grateful for any assistance and fix for this issue.

Thanks!

Hello,

About a month or so ago, I noticed the New Tab "+" button was missing on the right hand side of the tabs bar. Also missing is the "arrow" for clicking tabs rightward (the left "arrow" for clicking tabs leftward is still present). After a Firefox update today, I had hoped it would come back but it is still missing. I opened "customize toolbars" and clicked "restore defaults" but the New Tab "+" button is not listed as an option! Is this yet another bug that Mozilla claims is a "feature" that no one asked for (like erroneously moving the tabs bar to the top)?

Thanks.

Unable to "Dismiss" or "Delete History" on one unwanted app icon on Firefox quick connect screen. Many attempts to "Dismiss" won't make it go away. Same with "delete history".

Hello,

I have an issue where, when I switch tabs with Ctrl+Tab, my mouse cursor accidentally triggers something if it happens to be in the center. This is very annoying. I tried Googling how to turn off tab visualization through the config, but it hasn't worked so far.

   * browser.ctrlTab.previews

• browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab
• browser.tabs.animate
• toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled

So now, the only option I see is to turn off Recent Tabs, but then the browser becomes unusable. I also tried the same on a new clean user profile and even on new Mozilla-based browsers, but still nothing. It would be ideal to make the cursor inactive while switching tabs, like it is in Arc Browser and probably many others. But I would be happy enough to just turn off tab switching visualization.

How can mouse hover be disabled? On some websites (e.g. gva.be) when you hover (unintentionally) over some link, then this link is opened as if you had clicked on it.

How can this be disabled? I searched in about:config for mouse hover but I couldn't find anything relevant. Or do I need an extension to disable this behaviour?
