Everything under Logins and Passwords, and Forms and Autofill is unchecked. A "Primary Password" has never been set in firefox.

Can't get it to stop asking, which is made worse by the fact that nothing is selected to prompt it nor is anything stored for it to use.

Hi Folk,

Firefox runs perfectly smooth in 3840x2160, so this is not a perf issue. However when switching from onboard laptop screen (2k) to my external WQHD screen, Firefox does not refresh, not reacting to input or mouse until I switch back and forth from another window. So it only refresh/repaint when main window looses and gets focus.

I have to restart firefox to make it works again.

Configuration: Linux debian stable (11) (same on PopOS) CPU: intel 8550 / GPU: Intel HD 620 RAM: 16Gb External monitor connected through usb-c 3.1

It does the same with Thunderbird. My Qt apps and terminals (alacritty) are not impacted.

I very rarely reopen my apps because I also very rarely power off my laptop and use sleep mode instead (usually times between actual shutdowns are around a week). So ubuntu snap likes to update apps regardless of app being closed or not. And once in a while I get my firefox instance closed without me doing it, this would be fine if after reopening it all my tabs were in the same place (or at least I could restore them), but they all gone. I can't restore a session, I only have my history and have to reopen all of them manually.

Please don't tell me to use laptop like a normal person or that I can just listen to ubuntu warnings about updates and close software once in a while. The point is that I don't have this issue with other browsers (also using chrome and brave). If one of this counterparts shuts down unexpectedly it always suggests to restore your session on startup. I know firefox has this feature, but it seems to not work in this exact scenario.

When I print to a PDF file, Firefox changes internal links (#go-there) to full external links (either https://the.website.tld/paper.html#go-there or file://home/me/paper.html#go-there).

This is obviously wrong, since the links are internal to the document.

How to I change this behavior?

Thanks.

Hi,

I seem to having multiple problems with Firefox over the last few weeks...

This problem is - I can't unblock popups. I have got popup blocking enabled, with a couple of Exceptions - it's been working fine until I wanted to use it today. I have tried turning off popup blocking, re-entering the exceptions - nothing is helping!!!

Does anyone know what to do?

Thanking you Pedro

Hello,

Since some days I can't upload or download anything using Firefox. Right-click on an image and click "download" - nothing happens. Right-click on a web page and click "Save Page as" - nothing happens. Try to upload a file to DropBox or Google Drive - no popup appears, no error message, no response whatsoever. Opening the downloads list in the browser and trying to open the folders where I had previously downloaded things (when downloading was still working) also has no effect - the folder does not open on the desktop.

So apparently the problem is some kind of broken interaction between Firefox and Ubuntu (Nautilus?)

Downloading and uploading works normally with wget and Chromium.

Steps already tried: - Resetting all browser data - Refreshing the browser - Activating troubleshooting mode

Firefox: 113.0.1 Snap canonical-002 1.0 Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS

Hi!

Let's start by saying that I love Firefox, that I use it as my primary browser everywhere and I love that is not based on chromium. However, for reasons to me unknown is missing a very important feature (natively at least): tab grouping. This feature is extremely simple to implement and in today life, where in most jobs (I'm a researcher) you have to deal with a tons of tabs opened in your browser, being able to effectively organize them is a must.

My question is: has Firefox the intention to implement (again) this feature? Will this happen soon?

I'm really trying my best to not switch to a competitor browser and I really want to support Firefox and hope that it gains more and more users. But for this to happen it really needs to be on par with time. How come every other popular browser has a very good tab grouping feature and Firefox doesn't?

Please, let me know if there's a chance to see this feature implemented in reasonable times. Sooner or later, you will probably have to do that reagardless.

Wish you the best, A.

Hi,

i have set my home page to blank. Recently i noticed, that when i start firefox and visit a site, my arrow history (i don't know what it's actually called; the linear browsing history you navigate using those arrows) has the blank page as first entry. I don't want that first entry. How can i get rid of it? (And why is it called "chrome://browser/content/blanktab.html"?) When i open a site in a new tab, i don't have that blank page entry in the arrow history. So it seems like it must be possible to get rid of it.

Same problem with private browsing. The first page is always "about:privatebrowsing".

I'm using Firefox version 108.0 on Linux Mint.

It's only a small annoyance, but i really appreciate being less annoyed.

Thanks

for some time I've noticed this loss of frames when watching YT videos and YT notification drop down is activated. MX 19 Linux desktop MX 19 Linux laptop

I haven't seen any posts on this issue via search

Is this a driver, plugin, .. issue ?

HI! I've been trying to install Firefox on my new Acer Chromebook by following this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/run-firefox-chromeos. However, whenever i get to the last step, it says "no remote refs found similar to firefox". I have no idea what i'm doing at this point, any help?

In case user network namespace are disabled on linux, fork return ENOSPC, as the user network namespaces are exhausted (as the limit is set to 0 [1,2]).

It would be great if there would be a work around for such a situation that user network namespaces are disabled. It would be even better if firefox could handle that situation gracefully and run without `CLONE_NEWNET` automatically.

The output is:

``` [Parent 5699, IPC Launch] WARNING: fork() failed: No space left on device: file /builddir/build/BUILD/firefox-112.0.2/ipc/chromium/src/base/process_util_linux.cc:273 [Parent 5699, IPC I/O Parent] WARNING: Failed to launch tab subprocess: file /builddir/build/BUILD/firefox-112.0.2/ipc/glue/GeckoChildProcessHost.cpp:800 ``` Note that " No space left on device" is wrong, it is about the limit in terms of user network namespaces.

Best, David

Malwarebytes & Privacy Badger appear not to be working, though shown as 'enabled' in 'Extensions'. No blocked content is indicated. Adverts appear on lse.co.uk which can cause all four CPU's on Intel i5 to hit hi 90%. This problem appears to have started in this release.

Have disabled Privacy Badger and installed Adblocker Ultimate. This seems to have cleared the problem and Malwarebytes Browser Guard is now reporting results. Can't see how to mark problem as fixed??

A further observation which may be related to this problem. Response time seems very sluggish on FF 112.0.1

I have re-enabled both Privacy Badger & MalwareBytes and disabled Adblocker Ultimate. Both appear to be functioning now.

I have noticed that the WebExtensions process can consume as much and sometimes double the CPU & memory resource as that needed for the Firefox process. Is this to be expected? Do I need these extra security features, or are they built-in to the browser anyway?

Cuando maniobro un poco con Google Maps (acercar o alejar el mapa, sobre todo, pero también simplemente moviéndolo) se me cuelga; no Firefox: todo el sistema, tengo que reinicializar la máquina, porque no me funcionan ni el ratón, ni el teclado. Y eso me ocurre desde hace mucho tiempo -quizá dos o tres años-, no es de ahora.

Mantengo siempre actualizado el sistema operativo (Linux, ahora Mint, pero hasta hace un año fue Ubuntu; si bien Mint está basado en Ubuntu) y Firefox. Ya no sé qué hacer: me resisto sustituir Firefox por Chrome; llevo muchos años, prácticamente desde que existe, usando Firefox y siempre me ha dado un resultado estupendo, pero esto de Google Maps me amarga la existencia. He intentado utilizar Open Street Map, pero ni de lejos tiene la funcionalidad de Google Maps.

¿A alguien más le sucede esto? ¿Alguna solución?

I've been searching for a way to hide the tab bar and reclaim that space. Some sources on the web set to change some settings in about:config and edit userChrome.css, but this did not work. This question links to an add-on to do it, but the link is broken:

I want to print 1 page of a pdf document from the web. I want to print 2 pages per sheet. This works when I print the first sheet on the left side, but I can't print 1 page to the right side. There is no 'right to left' option. Does anyone have a work around? (If I use the 'print using system dialog' option, the orientation of the second page is wrong. ie while the left page is correctly printed as an A5 portrait on the left half of my A4 sheet, the right half prints as an A6 sheet rotated 90 deg. The system is ubuntu 20.04.) The documents I'm concerned with are bank statements which I shall not past!! I attach another random example. Left page printed directly from Firefox, right page using system dialog.

Hi,

I'm trying to configure equipment on my local network. Some of the equipment does NOT support https. Firefox continuously changes the address http://192.168.xxx.xxx to https://192.168.xxx.xxx, and the connection fails!

I have tried the various options in HTTP Only Mode, including entering Exceptions. I have also temporarily changed network.trr.mode from 5 to 1 (and 0), but nothing is working!

What can I do?

Thanking you Pedro

After I log into my account on citi.com, I end up on https://online.citi.com/US/ag/dashboard. Even after the page is finished loading, and with a new blank profile, the CPU usage is very high. I ran it through the profiler for a few seconds and this is what it shows: https://share.firefox.dev/3MpVQi7 I didn't include the following since it's online banking and didn't want to risk exposing anything, but if any of these need to be provided let me know: Include hidden threads Include hidden time range Include screenshots Include resource URLs and paths Include extension information

Can you tell what's causing the high CPU usage and how to stop it?

Thanks
