New behavior when opening Firefox on Linux Mint

Hey FF Support Team,

I am using Firefox version 157.0.1 (64-bit) (mint-001-1.0) on Linux Mint 22.3 Cinnamon. 4 Monitors are connected. In a previous version, don't know which but it is not long time ago, Firefox opened, when I clicked on the task bar icon, always on the monitor, where I moved the mouse to. Now in the writen version above, it is opening on the monitor, where the last Firefox window was closed.

It used to be so easy to tell Firefox where to open a new window, but that feature is gone now. Or is there maybe a setting somewhere to turn it back on? I didn't find anything in about:config, though.

Please do not confuse the behavior described here with the System Settings feature > Moving and Resizing Windows > Location of newly opened Windows, which works differently and is, unfortunately, very impractical.

I hope you can give me the key tip

Best regards Mario

I guess i cant get help, its just an fyi.

I'm on Linux CachyOS, was setting up a manual back up for both of the profiles I use. When setting up the second backup it, instead of writing to the directory it decided to overwrite the path, essentially deleting, not sending do the trash bin, DELETING my documents directory and creating the directory again, but now only the back up for the second profile was inside. Thankfully i have a backup, though a little out of date by like a few weeks. I'm not sure how much of it was user error for not reading and how much of it was just some weird error.

Hi. This is my first post so please bear with me.

Firstly, I have an android tablet on which I have installed the Proton Pass app and the Proton Pass extension for Firefox. Both are working correctly. Firefox is v152.0.4 and the OS is Android 12.

I have also installed the Proton Pass app to my Moto G55 and it's working correctly. But when I try to add the extension to Firefox on my G55 the Add to Firefox option is greyed out. Firefox is v158.0 and the OS is Android 16..

I have searched extensively for a solution but no luck so far. Any help gratefully appreciated Thanks

Xubuntu 24.04.5 Firefox 158

Firefox used to position a new window on the screen in a somewhat predictable manner prior to 158.

For example, if there was a blank space on the screen between other windows, the browser would locate it and be placed there. A new instance would also appear on the active screen (I have two: left and right with a single window manager spanning both) where the mouse was located. Now the window is just placed in some arbitrary locations and may appear on the non-active screen.

I have a number of scripts that load various sets of windows on the screen (typically a number of xfce4-terminals and the browser) which used to pretty much work, but no longer as the browser windows can show up any place and must then be relocated. When I start a new session I have eight distinct desktops with many versions of Firefox on each. It is tiresome to have to relocate one browser window after another.

Is there any option I can set that would revert to the older screen placement algorithm?


Also, I asked this before and don't remember getting any satisfactory response. Why is the -geometry flag not supported on Firefox any longer? What's the opposition to giving the user control over this? I want some command-line method for accurately setting the size (WxH) and position (X:Y) of the browser window on the screen. Am I missing something here?

Thanks for any pointers.

I have turned on compact mode, so i have to hover to the left side to access it. I usually go to the left side, it appears and i do what i wanna do. But today, when i go to the left side it appears as usual but automatically disappears again without me doing anything. Also if i click on something on the toolbar it does not register but it clicks on whatever website that is underneath it. It doesn't happen all time though, sometimes its working like before. I don't know how to find the exact cause.

Profile/session doesn't ever save/load

I run normal firefox on linux. Fully up-to-date. Every time I quit the app, it reverts to a version of my profile from a month ago, and loads all the tabs I had open then, and then receives all the tabs that I sent to the device in the interim (~1 month). As I speak, it just caught the 60 or 70 tabs in this window.

I tried changing the name of my profile folder to randomstring.defaultOLD and changed one of the backups to randomstring.default. This didn't change the behavior. I'm still stuck in the loop. I saved my tabs with onetab, because firefox isn't remembering my session anymore. I thought it was something to do with updates, like it only loses its mind upon updates, but that's not true. It thinks it's updating firefox EVERY TIME, because the one time it's loading to 1 month ago it was updating, but I'm 100% sure there are no updates to firefox in my linux. It's just hallucinating.

The articles on restoring from backup are outdated. They say to use an html file. There is no html file. It's just folders for profiles, not html files. HELP!
