I went to IT at school because the VPN wasn't working. The VPN we need to access all school resources uses the device's default browser to do whatever it does. The IT guy said my issue probably had something to do with the VPN detecting saved passwords for the school and seeing that as a security threat. The temporary solution was to switch my default browser, but I hate both chrome and edge.

What do I need to change about my firefox settings to avoid the conflict with the VPN? I don't want to clear all my passwords; is that necessary?

a website im using is trin to call an api with referer header and policy of "origin-when-cross-origin", but firefox overides it to "Same Origin Policy" with console msg: Referrer Policy: Less restricted policies, including ‘no-referrer-when-downgrade’, ‘origin-when-cross-origin’ and ‘unsafe-url’, will be ignored soon for the cross-site request

After a lot of search, i found that network.http.referer.disallowCrossSiteRelaxingDefault config setting should be set to false to allow any policy, but toggling between false or true has no affect. The request still fails with a cors error "Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at..."

Is there a way to make this work? Or a way to allow the request to have this referer policy.

The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem. -It is on the top of the screen

I suddenly got a bunch of notices on my computer saying that malicious software has been installed on my computer. They just kept coming and coming. So I turned off notifications in Firefox, and that seemed to fix the problem. But has my computer been taken over? Is it safe to use it? I hope you can help me. Thank you, Ree_B333@yahoo.com

I'm trying to configure Firefox on Mac using our MDM. The goal is ultimately to control a bunch of settings, but I'm trying to start simple by just installing the 1Password extension.

When I deploy this .mobileconfig file, nothing seems to happen to Firefox. I made this by following the example at https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/mac/org.mozilla.firefox.plist but it doesn't seem to work and I am not sure how to debug.

<plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>PayloadContent</key> <array> <dict> <key>PayloadContent</key> <dict> <key>org.mozilla.firefox</key> <dict> <key>Forced</key> <array> <dict> <key>EnterprisePoliciesEnabled</key> <true/> <key>Extensions</key> <dict> <key>Install</key> <array> <string>https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/1password-x-password-manager/latest.xpi</string> </array> </dict> <key>PasswordManagerEnabled</key> <false/> <key>ExtensionUpdate</key> <true/> </dict> </array> </dict> </dict> <key>PayloadEnabled</key> <true/> <key>PayloadIdentifier</key> <string>e441f671-148a-4039-a45d-12514e6d92b2</string> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>com.apple.ManagedClient.preferences</string> <key>PayloadUUID</key> <string>e441f671-148a-4039-a45d-12514e6d92b2</string> <key>PayloadVersion</key> <integer>1</integer> </dict> </array> <key>PayloadDescription</key> <string>Installs the 1Password Firefox extension for ease of use.</string> <key>PayloadDisplayName</key> <string>1Password Firefox Extension</string> <key>PayloadIdentifier</key> <string>77dc9f8b-aaee-4f91-93ba-30b81cc6a31b</string> <key>PayloadOrganization</key> <string>Exogee</string> <key>PayloadRemovalDisallowed</key> <true/> <key>PayloadScope</key> <string>System</string> <key>PayloadType</key> <string>Configuration</string> <key>PayloadUUID</key> <string>77dc9f8b-aaee-4f91-93ba-30b81cc6a31b</string> <key>PayloadVersion</key> <integer>1</integer> </dict> </plist>

I am got the following message from Biddefender when I accessed my BoA site: firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an unmatching security certificate to bankofamerica.com.data.adobedc.net.

What does this mean???

Dear Mozilla Firefox Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

We manage a network of workstations that frequently utilize the Mozilla Firefox browser. Recently, we have encountered a situation where many of our systems are showing vulnerabilities due to pending browser updates. The updates are being installed successfully; however, users often neglect to restart the browser, which is crucial for completing the update process and ensuring security.

To address this, we would like to inquire if there is an existing Group Policy that can be configured to automatically notify users when they need to restart their Firefox browser to apply the latest updates. Such a feature would greatly assist us in maintaining the security integrity of our workstations and ensuring that users are made aware of the importance of restarting their browsers when prompted.

If this functionality is not currently available, we would appreciate any insights on potential workarounds or future plans to incorporate such a feature.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to your response.

02/24/2025 @3:22 pm CDT -- Hi; Firefox has recently been telling me [in the Settings screen] that "your browser is managed by your organization." This is on the 'General' page. THAT'S A PROBLEM, esp. on a STANDALONE PC. I didn't change any settings for that to happen.

Since I first saw this message in January, I've reinstalled Win 11 several times; wiped my drive b/c of a security compromise, changed a whole lot of PWs and other things. This is from 48+ yrs. of being a Tech Lady. But I couldn't find a solution to this - to remove this 'organizational' mgmt. of my box. How can this be removed and the browser again realize that I am one independent person?

Thank you.
