Firefox: форум сообщества

Hello

As in the subject written, it is newly there again that when klicking on a URL-file (such as *.webloc) on the macOS desktop or somewhere in a folder, Firefox (actual 146.0.1 (aarch64)) is opening that URL and an empty browser-site behind. That one is absolutely not helpful and has always been klicked away…

Is there any adjustment possible or is it a mistake. The version before that did not happen and some years ago it did. In Safari does it work as it should (starting the browser itself opens an empty browser window; startin via a safed *.webloc opens only that URL)

Thank you for any help and all the best

Untill latest update when on a site was link, ex. http://site.site/repository/text.txt i could select the link and from context menu select "open link in new tab/window" or "save link as". Now only "copy link" action is available. Im on Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS Thanks for any response.

I'm simply trying to email someone using the email link on their site.

The link is a mailto link which requires an email application (which I don't have). All I want is to copy the link to the clipboard.

Firefox lets me right click the link and copy the email address, but this doesn't allow me to provide the required Subject specified by the site's author.

I could have sworn Firefox used to have this feature. Netscape and IE certainly always had it back in the day.

First, is there a list of commandline options?

Second, I would like to be able to start Firefox with a specified URL from a batch file -or- a .net program. Then, either close FF -or- switch to a different URL. is this possible?

I've always been able to highlight, copy, and then paste into Word or an email from Firefox, but today highlighting no longer gives me that functionality. I am running the most recent version of Windows 11. Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions for solutions?

Hi! Was just wondering if there was something preventing me from opening these kinds of pop-ups. Recently, I've been browsing old websites and noticed that links that are supposed to be pop-ups don't pop-up at all. Then, I tried to do the same on my website, and it still didn't work. I've pretty much done every solution I could find under the Sun, but none so far have worked whatsoever. Is this a new feature or is Firefox just being weird again?

Please help ;_; it's been stressing me out real bad for the past few hours!

Whenever I search something and there is a youtube video included in the search results, all links direct to that video. In the example image it show me hovering over a website link and in the bottom left hand corner it instead tries to open a youtube link at the bottom of the page.

Hi. When I click on the arrow to go back to previous page, nothing happens. This occurs on any website I am connected to. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Alan

When using Firefox and clicking on a link oftentimes instead of the link opening in Firefox it opens Microsoft Edge. I have Firefox set as my default browser. Other than uninstalling Microsoft Edge is there any other solution to this problem? My OS is Windows 11 Pro.

The mailto option for AOL Mail does not produce the correct URL -- it simply opens AOL email but does not create a new mail with the subject link I wish to send like other mail programs. Can this be sent to support to correct please?

Note that I have tried to correct the URL command but have been blocked at all suggest modification points.

For some reason, I cannot access any links imbedded in my favorite browser sites. I don't have enough knowledge to put into words what I'm asking but I'd like to be able to click on a newsletter or a article on a websitye. The messages is always "cannot access this site (or link). Any suggestions?

My desktop (Windows 10) Firefox just updated to 145.0.1 and the right-click menu is defective. It has a bunch of blank lines, the only options listed are search DuckDuckGo, translate, and use AI. This ruins my browsing experience, since I can no longer open links in new tabs which is my favorite way of looking at newspaper home pages.

I'm having trouble opening urls in a private window from the command line on Windows 11.

Firefox version: 144.0.2

Starting a new private window works fine with "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private-window

But doing: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private-window "https://www.google.com"

just opens the link in the last selected window if the last window selected is non private it just opens the link there instead of a new or existing private window

I have also tried with no success: "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -private "https://www.google.com"

I filled out this form completely to resolve another issue only to come to the section at the lower part of this page. "Troubleshooting Information (optional): We can't automatically get your browser's troubleshooting data, please try these manual steps. "

I clicked the link...silly me...thinking the link would open a modal or popup. it took me to another page, losing everything i typed to ask to get a problem resolved. GGGRRRRRRRR! to put it lightly.

Maybe someone can fix that? I'm likely posting this in the wrong place. But it is posted and I hope the right people see it to not let it happen again.

Oddly, the browser kept the images for the form I was working on, only the typed text was lost.

FIrefox 143 appears to prepend a google link to some links when clicked ... ...

… … and then after a delay load the page with the correct link.

This appears to be something new (or never noticed before) after my MAC OSX upgrade to 26.

Can't tell who's problem it is but it's annoying. Have to try other browsers to know if it's just firefox.

Any insights would be appreciated.
