How to stop firefox from prompting me with this pop up (see attachment). I already removed the whatsapp app from firefox, it's still not working as it used to be which is to start whatsapp conversation directly in the web. It's annoying because the app is so easy to install but hard to remove. Firefox should do something about this.

If I select "Privacy & Security > History > Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings > Data > Site settings" what SQLite files affected when Firefox closes?

I suspect in the profile folder directly, there's a file called "storage.sqlite", but there seems to be more things affected because the whitelist for my cookies is also wiped-out.

In my experience (115.23.0.esr), when I request to remove site data when Firefox closes, it wipes out my cookie white list, so I want to manage that myself.

I'm experiencing an issue when copying PNG images only in the Firefox browser. Here's the problem: When I copy a PNG image and paste it into Photoshop or any other program, I get an image with a black background.

This didn’t happen before, but it started occurring after a few recent updates.

In other browsers, I get a “normal” PNG image with a transparent background.

Every few days a popup appears that tells me "An extension, Panorama Tab Groups, is hiding some of your tabs. You can still access all of your tabs from <down arrow>." It has two buttons: Disable Extension and Keep Tabs Hidden.

There seems to be no way to turn this off. I *want* the tabs hidden; that's why I have the extension installed. And I really don't want to be pestered with this popup like this. How do I stop it?

Because the economy, inflation, and lower incomes are still a major problem, many users like myself need to continue using old computers that can only run Windows 7. So we need Firefox ESR 115 to continue being supported with updates for at least a couple more years.

I just approved an upgrade to Firefox that mentioned something about a new way of dealing with extensions. The first thing I noticed was my 1Password add-on in the toobar disappeared. I took the steps recommended by 1Password to add it back, and I can get a 1Password icon to appear on the toolbar, but it is non-functional. I confirmed 1Password is still functional with an icon in the toolbars of my other browsers. What gives?

Using iOS on Mac Mini desktop, I get no sound on democracynow.org but on the iPhone the sound works fine. Most other streams/videos have fine sound but not imdb.com on the desktop with iOS but again, fine on the iPhone.

I like the Firefox browser and Firefox was working fine for months but Firefox did ask me to do another update today. I did the update as requested and after the update Firefox will not connect to any websites on my desktop despite an excellent internet connection. I cannot find anyway to contact Firefox directly. For major problems such as a 100 percent failure rate to connect to any website, Firefox should provide direct help to the user as to the current major problem. I appreciate user ideas but Firefox should offer some help for major problems as the likely solutions can change over time. Hopefully if Firefox oversees user questions, someone at Firefox tech will at least respond to my question on this website or better yet contact me directly.

The problem may well be the update itself. The Firefox browser is working on my smartphone but not the desktop internet browser. I have some browser settings that I do not want to lose which a complete Firefox removal and reinstall would likely cause. Any suggestions from fellow Firefox users are appreciated and I look forward to them. Have other Firefox users experienced this major problem?

Thank you.

I was dismayed to discover that the latest versions of Firefox (e.g. 141 on Linux) unify the search and address bars again. There does not seem to be any easy and obvious way to change this.

On my 128 esr Linux Firefox I have an address bar that does not accept search terms and a separate search bar.

How can I get this behaviour in 141?
