Firefox: форум сообщества

After upgrading to 149.0.2 (64-bit), when starting FF or opening an new tab, the preferred URL is not loaded. It is configured in Settings/Home/New Windows and Tabs All previuos FF versions were OK with the same URl (https://search.yahoo.com/web/advanced)

On the new tab page I have set for 4 rows of shortcuts. In the fourth row I have 3 open spaces for tiles/shortcuts. There is no way to add the tiles whereas there was previously a tile that would show that said "+add shortcut". Given I have room in the row to add 3 shortcuts, how do I add tiles to allow for added shortcuts?

As of recently, I have problems with Firefox that do not happen in other browsers. But Firefox is my favorite, and I'd like to have this solved so I can keep using it.

In Zendesk, there is an option "Print ticket" which should open Print dialog and we then can print whole email to PDF. This worked for years, but as of recently that dialog simply does not show. I tried change Firefox settings for printing, but problem remains. Attached is a screenshot how it looks in chrome, and how it used to work in firefox.

As from yesterday, April 17, Firefox will not load correctly https://m365.cloud.microsoft page. It loads, but no element reacts when clicked. I cleared cache, cookies, removed extensions, refreshed firefox, but to no avail.

Thanks for the help!

Just found that using Iolo System Mechanic to clean up my desktop is constantly causing the loss of my bookmarks and possibly my passwords. I have tried to specify which file(s) to ignore in System Mechanic to avoid this issue, but it is not allowing me to specify the files in my Appdata folders that I suspect it is clobbering. Has anyone been successful with this? I am getting tired of restoring my bookmark files every time I use the program. My wife's computer is having the same issue, and even worse in that she has also had her entire bookmark backup files wiped clean, which required her to re-enter all of her bookmarks manually. The folks at Iolo want me to pay for support before I can get any help from them.

Hello,

I have just setup a new desktop computer which has the latest versions of Firefox and AVG Free.

Firefox is not working properly, sometimes not completely loading pages, images or is not loading pages at all.

If I disable the AVG Web Shield Setting “Enable QUIC/HTTP3 scanning” then Firefox behaves normally.

The build of AVG Free is 26.3.10886.974 and the version of Firefox is 149.0.2.

Regards,

I face an issue with the browser crashing when in google meeting (meet.google.com). The problem persist in a new profile created with 'firefox.exe -P' and also in the troubleshooting mode. The crash is triggered when I am in the google meeting (with allowed microphone) and I manipulate with windows of the browser - across multiple monitors (switching tabs, moving tabs between windows, closing firefox windows, opening them, "dropping" the tabs onto another applications - chrome, spotify - which opens a new firefox window). Sometime the crash happened once I closed the google meeting tab. Unfortunately it happens "randomly" and I was not able to come with a specific series of steps to reproduce the crash. But it happens always when I am in the meeting and play with the windows for a while.

The crash: Firefox freezes for a few seconds (~3s) and then closes itself - all windows. %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\pending contains a new .dmp file, but it has 0 bytes and no .extra file is created, hence it cannot be submitted via about:crashes. The crash reporter is not opened when firefox crashes. The attached troubleshooting information are from the new clear profile where the crash happens as well.

I am experiencing significant stability issues with Firefox. When I use YouTube, the entire browser frequently hangs (becomes unresponsive) and eventually crashes. This does not happen on all websites, but it is consistent when playing video content on YouTube.

• Symptoms: The browser "stacks" or freezes completely; I cannot click tabs or menus until the browser finally closes/crashes.

• Extensions: I am currently using extensions like SponsorBlock, uBlock origin. I am unsure if this is the cause, but the issue persists during video playback.

• Hardware: I am running this on a laptop with an 16gb 4800mhz RAM, i7 12th Gen processor and an RTX 3070 GPU.

1. Is there a known compatibility issue between current Firefox builds and SponsorBlock or similar video-modifying extensions?

1. Could this be related to hardware acceleration settings with my NVIDIA GPU?

1. What steps should I take to provide crash logs to help identify the root cause?

On 2026-04-15 from about 10:00 CDT on, I have not been able to update Nightly nor Firefox Developer Edition (Aurora). Both of them notify me that there is an update available, and when I click on Help -> About Firefox I get the usual panel that gives me the update ID to click on. Clicking on it tells me it's Downloading Update -- 0 bytes, and it never flashes the expected size of the update, never shows progress, and never completes. It seems to be acting as if the update server is out of commission.

Downloading a file closes the source website. Once clicking on the download icon, the subject file appears and the source website closes. The file can be downloaded, but cannot return to the source website unless logging into the website again. The back arrow in upper left corner is not highlighted and cannot click on it. This is relatively new because it did not occur previously. Use to click on the download icon, the file would appear, download the file, hit back arrow and return to the website. Please help. Very time consuming and frustrating to have to keep logging into a website to get all needed downloads.

A windows update occurred this AM 04/15/26 and it has affected my browsing. Don't know if this update effected my G mail. My U tube profile changed form browsing to history. example: when I click on to my U tube profile it brings up the last view I was browsing. I cannot refresh Firefox like before from the help menu, of which would select the profile I desire.

My browser updated to 149.0.2 on Windows 11 early April 2026. I first noticed the browser asking me to select a profile when trying to open hyperlinks from emails, but since I had not closed the browser since the update, I still had all of my information. When I went to restart, I was forced to make a new profile as no other ones were recognized. This also happened during an update at the end of 2025 and I was able to fix it with advise from support articles., Unfortunately, none of those fixes seem to be applicable anymore. Does anyone have a current fix? I have lost so much saved info!

Firefox browser has stopped opening websites on my Dell laptop. Get "secure connection failed" error message. Other browsers work just fine. I have refreshed, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox from both firefox website (using Brave browser) and from MSN store.

Starting the Windows 11 laptop again. Then Firefox. Result: No sites are starting. All history lost, many tabs: lost. Great work!!! Last update was already shit (many exception rules have to be set manual again. I love such updates! Useless). And now that. I think I will switch now to chrome. Sorry. Such experience is enough. It is my time - I need a reliable browser, not where I have to spend time to get the things like they have been before

I normally have 4 windows open, each with multiple tabs, for 4 work streams.

Whenever Firefox or MS decides to do an update, one window sometimes, 4 rarely, none usually, are recovered after restart. How can I ensure that Firefox remembers all the windows and their tabs before shutting down? Then reinstates them after starting up. After the last MS update, the option "Recently closed windows" was greyed out. But there had been 4 of them.

Firefox's recovery after simply rebooting the computer is more, but not completely, reliable. Win11 on a desktop computer

Thank you

when putting in Yahoo.com in Firefox search window, it will open the link but then the page disappears after 2 seconds. I am on Dell Inspiron 15 laptop with Windows 11.
