Firefox: форум сообщества

Please forgive me if this question was already answered and that I might have accidentally overlooked that answer.

I'm running Firefox 144.0 (64-bit) under Debian 13 (linux).

I want to configure Firefox to never restore any previous session when it starts up, irrespective of how Firefox was last exited.

Even if a running Firefox session was externally killed via some sort of system command or because of a reboot, I never, never, never, never, never, never, never, NEVER (!!!) want it to restart in any previous session.

I ALWAYS (!!!) want Firefox to launch with its default start page, no matter what.

I tried all of the suggestions that I have found on line about how this might be accomplished, but with each one of them, there are cases where the previous session was restored.

I repeat, I do NOT (!!!) EVER (!!!) want the previous session to be restored, under any circumstances.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions, and again, please accept my apology if this has been answered and I overlooked that answer.

Hi. Now that the 'Open Link in Split View' has annoyingly replaced the spot previously held by 'Open Link in New Window' i keep clicking on it accidentally (muscle memory).

I don't want to have to retrain my muscle memory, but despite creating css file generated by Claude that should in theory remove the option, and putting it the Profile Folder, it will not go away.

How do i remove it?

I'm running Firefox under Ubuntu, Ubuntu is using Wayland which replaced X11.

Firefox's User Agent string still refers to X11, this does not cause me any problem but I'm curious.

I realise some websites might be expecting to see "X11" and could get upset if presented with "Wayland" instead but in various walks of life telling the truth is often the best policy.

about:support in Firefox shows me:

User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:152.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/152.0 Window Protocol wayland

When I swipe to the left, Firefox navigates Back & when I swipe to the right, Firefox navigates Forwards. It is VERY ANNOYING!!!! It's really easy to do this accidentally while scrolling around a large web page. When you go back, it deletes all data that was filled out on the web form causing DOUBLE the work. How do I turn it off please? Win 10, FF 142.0.1 64-Bit

Hello, I'd like your help. I'd like to disable some unnecessary options from the Firefox right-click menu. 1. Open link in new tab 2. Open link in new container tab 3. Open link in new private window 4. Save link as 5. Copy link I don't need these five options, so I'd like to disable them if possible.

The keyboard shortcut to take screenshots [Ctrl + Shift + S] used to work a few weeks ago but it has stopped working for quite a while now. Doesn't work on any site, I can only create screenshots by right clicking and pressing the button manually.

Is there a button I push or a feature I enable to make sure that I'm opted-out of any future updates that include AI 'features'? Or should I switch to Vivaldi now and save time?

I started using Claude in the side panel instead of a dedicated tab, but there is something noise about it: every time I click to open the side panel the chat starts from scratch. Getting a clean slate is nice, but it takes too much time loading. So I would like to not unload the content of the panel when I close it, just hide it, so when I click to open is already loaded. There is a way to do that?

These are technically two separate issues, but both pertain to functionality of the mouse and keyboard. Whenever I right click to bring up the menu, the options (despite being functional) do not appear in the menu proper. Instead there are just empty buttons. In addition, certain hotkeys aren't working at all. Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to copy paste are doing fine, but Ctrl-T and Ctrl-W to open and close tabs respectively do nothing. Neither of these issues were happening yesterday.

When trying to set Firefox to open a file on Windows 11, it is overwritten by Firefox Nightly. I have both branches installed.

This is how it goes when attempting to set Firefox as a default application in my machine:

1. "Apps > Default Apps"
2. .mp4 (for example)
3. click the button below that displays the current default application
4. Firefox Nightly appears in this menu
5. "Choose an app on your PC"
6. "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox" ... "firefox.exe" ... "Open"
7. Firefox Nightly remains in this menu

I cannot get Firefox to appear as an available app in this menu. The only workaround, although inconvenient, is to drag and drop files straight into Firefox.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

For a while now firefox has been unable to enter fullscreen when pressing F11. Instead all it does is move the "Scroll forwards", "Open a new tab", and "List all tabs" button over slightly (The buttons on the top right, next to the minimize and close buttons).

I don't know what's going on with firefox.

Firefox Version 142.0.1 (64-bit)

if someone can help me with this then pls reply to this, ill come back to this post like a week later

Please return my Computer to using Firefox default as my browser as it was 2/01 /2026.Ive tried several times to do this w/o success . I was using windows 11 and have been trying to get rid of MS365 which I never used but have been charged for a solution , but have been blocked and refused cancellation after they asked me to change my email address and PW . Insanely confusing !

I am trying to disable the text segmentation behavior in latest Firefox(v151), but I have encountered an issue where changing the preference in [about:config] does not seem to have any effect.

Details:

   Target Preference:  intl.icu4x.segmenter.enabled
   Current Setting:       false

   Problem: 
   Even after setting this to false (and restarting the browser), the text segmentation behavior (such as word selection logic) remains unchanged and appears to still be using the ICU4X engine.

   Reference:
   https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1440483#answer-1638092

I would like to know:

  1.  Has this preference been deprecated or hardcoded to true in recent versions of Firefox?

   2. Is there any other way to disable the ICU4X-based segmenter or revert to the previous segmentation logic?

   3. If this is a known change, is there an alternative preference to adjust how word selection handles specific languages (e.g., Japanese)?

I am using the latest version of Firefox. Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help!
