Hello. I'd wriitten a few days ago about being blocked from firemountaingems.com I got help from Issis B. and was able to browse the site by turning off the VPN temporarily. Today, I am again blocked even with the temporary turn off of the VPN.

Is there a way you can show me easily step by step, how to exclude certain sites from the VPN permanently.

Thank you in adavance.

Error message: the bookmarks and history system will no be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem.

I tried following the directions in "learn more" but to no avail. Please help this senior citizen get his bookmarks back! Thank you.

I have disabled and removed any and all VPN's from my main unit. I have reloaded Firefox and cleaned the registry. Still getting the message and am unable to display images. Any ideas?

Why so many 'I am not a robot" picture checking and redundancy on motorcycles too? It's blocking my Firefox website address defaulting to Google's address bar? Only change I made was activating my AVAST security VPN subscription.

All searches get blocked by reCaptcha, quoted as being caused by 'unusual activity on the network' After going through the "I'm Not A Robot" process the search is o.k., but this happens for every search. The problem does not exist if I switch to Chrome. How do I fix this?

I've used Firefox for 20 years through the various iterations of Windows, and have been using it trouble free on Windows 11 since November 2024. Two days ago, however, When I tried to open the Guardian site (www.theguardian.com) it would open very slowly and not load and of the pictures. This gradually got worse, the site taking for ever to open at all, and always with the little dot in the tab at the top left going from side to side showing it was still loading. I have tried everything I can think of. Opened in troubleshoot mode, changed DNS settings, uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox twice (one time to see if it would work normally if I didn't actually sign in to my account). All to no avail. In fact now things are worse, in that the GOV.Uk website is now giving me similar problems - and a few other sites have become slightly slow and reluctant to open as well. My internet connection seems fine, and all these sites open without any trouble on Microsoft Edge. I am NOT very good at tech, and I am now tearing my heair out as to what I can try next.

Any help wopuld be gratefully received!

With the latest firefox update all my bookmarks do not appear on my windows11 desktop. But the synchronized booksmarks on my win10 note book and on my iphone still exist. So nothing is lost, the bookmarks simply do not show up on the win11 desktop. With this firefox update I also received a desktop message that bookmarks might not appear because of an interference with the internet security program (f-secure) Unfortunately I did not give enough attention to this explaination there and the steps how to solve the problem.

Can somebody send me the link to this explaination or tell me how to fix the bookmark interference with f-secure?

many thanks thomas

Hello, I have been using Firefox for 15 years, you guys are awesome. I have a few issues before with Firefox, in the past but were easily fixed by a refresh or new install, PC reset. I have tried these options and more, and still I cannot see why websites are not connecting, I recently tried Norton Anti track, didn't see anything new deleted after 3-days? (Properly)I am sure anti track is the cause of the problem, it was running fine until deleted extension removed everything. Norton did a remote session taking screen shots of computer and stated Firefox is is just not working. I can access the websites from that browser. I reinstalled Firefox* after install of Norton product, which usually likes to control everything on your computer. I have a HP Pavilion desktop running windows 11/// I just cant seem to get to my accounts seem to be block by something? Account i have had for years. I have done everything on Mozilla help articles, but still not letting me in to the websites??? some are opening email AOL, CVS and a few others, even my Amazon Prime account hesitates while browsing?I had and AOL pop-up stating My GP? settings? could not find it. Can you help any info would be appreciated. Firefox is my default browser and I miss it. Thanks to all at Mozilla, best, Thomas user.

Hi. I'm in Windows 10 Extension using latest version of Firefox 145.0.2.

Every time I try to log into my Gmail account, a Windows Security Pop up says: "Making sure it's you. Please sign in to google.com. This request is coming from Firefox, published by Mozilla Corporation."

I'm already trying to log into gmail using my user name and password! I cancel out of the pop up and then it takes several tries to finally log in to gmail.

Is there any way to disable this pop up request at Firefox's end?

Thank you. JHL
