Reply to zeroknight - 2. I use Bitwarden for my password manager. When I disabled it I was able to access Regions. All my other logins seem to be working OK. Maybe a Bitwarden update will fix the problem. Anyway, I know what the problem is now.

Thanks again.

I use windows 10 Pro as the main synching device to synch Firefox to my iPhone ver. 14 and ninth generation iPad. Neether the iPhone or iPad will synch. Seems like the changing of the guard in management has screwed things up that were working a few days ago.

Hello fellow Firefox users, I sadly cannot use my Firefox (120.0.1, 64 bits, Windows 10) anymore as it is too slow to show a webpage... It's so slow, that I initially thought that I have no internet connexion at all on Firefox.

Can anyone help me figuring why my Firefox profile is so slow ?

Long story short:

- Until 2023-12-05, my Firefox was working normally.

 My parameters were "No HTTPS everywhere" and "No DNS over HTTPS (DoH)".

- On 2023-12-05, I was connected to an entreprise DNS (Mangling DNS).

 I cannot acces some website because of their local policy, so I changed my DNS parameters.
 I choose to use DoH with Cloudflare instead of the given DNS.
 Internet worked perfectly.

- On 2023-12-06 and 2023-12-07, same parameters, Internet worked perfectly on another network. - Since 2023-12-08, Internet is very slow. It need about 1.5 minute to get start.duckduckgo.com loading on any network.

 I thought it will not load at all (timeout ?).
 Others webrowsers (e.g. : Microsoft Edge) are correctly working.
 The "ping google.com" command is working normaly on windows with 2ms delay.
 The DNS on windows "Get-DnsClientServerAddress" are the normal DNS of the router.
 Even with reverting the DoH parameter to off, I do not get back my web browsing speed.

Troubleshooting :

- It's slow with "DoH and Cloudflare" activated.

 It's slow on my home network.
 It's slow on a public network.
 It's slow on another private network.
 https://www.dnsleaktest.com gives me a list of Cloudflare DNS (IPv4) near me, different from the DNS (IPv6) used by Windows 10.
 Meanwhile, Microsoft Edge, ping and wget/curl are working normally (i.e. no delay).
 Noticably, Microsfot Edge use by default according to https://www.dnsleaktest.com the same Cloudflare DNS.

- It's slow with "DoH and Cloudflare" NOT activated.

 It's slow on my home network.
 It's slow on a public network.
 It's slow on another private network.
 https://www.dnsleaktest.com gives me one DNS from my ISP (IPv4), same value as the DNS (IPv4) used by Windows 10.
 Meanwhile, Microsoft Edge, ping and wget/curl are working normally (i.e. no delay).
 Noticably, Microsfot Edge use by default according to https://www.dnsleaktest.com the Cloudflare DNS.

- In about:crashes there is not relevent crash (only old crash).

- I have not changed any about:config parameters in the 2023-12-05 to today (2023-12-12) period.

- I have run mozregression GUI with no problem.

 The program oppened succesfully start.duckduckgo.com .
 This website was choosen as it is an allowed website on every DNS.

- Firefox 120.0.1 is saying that it is up-to-date.

 And as of today, it is.

- I do have some extensions (12 activated) on my Firefox, so I try without extension.

 It worked but I do not understand why!
 * New profile. Using "firefox.exe -profile" I created another clean profile to see.
                It worked.
                According to https://www.dnsleaktest.com, my new empty profile uses both Cloudflare DNS (IPv4) and the router DNS from the ISP.
                Adding one-by-one most of extensions (6 now) to this new profile do not break yet my Firefox speed.
 * Safe Mode. Using "firefox.exe -safe-mode" I have started my corrupt profile without extension, JIT, etc...
              It worked.
              According to https://www.dnsleaktest.com, it uses only the router DNS (IPv4).

- I can send some result from about:support if needed, but it kills privacy...

Conclusion :

I do not understand why my main Firefox profile is not working correctly. I do not see strange things when troubleshooting. Nothing makes sense.

May someone help me figuring out?

Firefox has crashed repeatedly when I've switched tabs to my gmail in the past ~15 minutes. It happens in "troubleshooting mode" as well. I'm running firefox on a linux computer, and my ubuntu installation and firefox are both up to date.

Here's my crash id: bp-b079d597-fb83-4a69-ab65-896370231129

Hi,

1. impossible to open bookmarks. nothing happens

2. all the shortcuts on my home page have disappeared while they are still chosen in preferences and it is not possible to add new ones. Again nothing happens when trying.

I am mainly concern about the possible loss of the links of the bookmarks. I already experienced a total loss of the history and I fear to go through something like that again.

Please solve this problem or help me if I can do it myself. I did a restart and a refresh but no change. Thank you

Even though I have selected Firefox as my default browser, when I click on links in emails or other sources, the actions continue to open in Microsoft Edge. This is a recent phenomena, starting within the past couple of months. I have repeatedly checked my settings, but Firefox always shows as my default browser.What can I do to stop this nuisance? It's a pain to have to copy and paste the web address from Edge to Firefox. Is this an MS hack? Please advise.

Greetings,

I just saw on line a notice about mozilla monitor and I tried the free scan. I was alarmed. My quesiton is if you have more than one email associated with you ID information, does mozilla monitor cover those different email addresses?

I do not want my searches to be reflected in the address bar. I believe in prior versions of Firefox there was a checkbox to delete that provision. I'm using Firefox 123.0 64-bit with Windows 10 and have been through the setting and more tools areas but found no way to remove that function. I did try the about:config suggestions but still have no joy.

I wish you would stop carrying articles from sources that do not allow pocket subscribers to read them without an individual subscription to the article source. One notable example is the New York Times. it is not possible to read an article from them because when someone clicks on the article of interest, it is not visible unless that person signs up for a subscription to the NYT. So, for all of your readers who like to peruse interesting and thought provoking articles, but do not wish to sign up for multiple subscriptions, why even carry articles from sources that cannot be read to start with? this is VERY annoying! Thanks.

Yesterday, Amazon disappeared from the Firefox search drop down menu and it had disappeared as an option from the list of possible search tools. Later on in the day, it reappeared. This morning it had disappeared. Amazon is still there, but Firefox seems disinclined to admit that. How can Firefox make Amazon stick?

Hi, I would like to export all my bookmarks once a day. This needs to happen automatically because it will be part of a bigger idea where I will be working with this file etc.

Is there any way to do this? For example: - do it using API directly in the Firefox Sync service? - do it via command line in Windows?

Any other idea?

Firefox is my default browser. Up until a few months ago, if I clicked a link in an Outlook email, it took me to Firefox and opened the site. Now it takes me to Microsoft Edge.

At the same time, another problem arose, albeit minor. When I am using Firefox and attempt to email a link, there is a message, "Navigation failed" and a blank screen appears. This is not a big problem, since when I open Outlook the email is waiting to be sent. But this too smacks of something Microsoft is doing to sabotage the competition.

Just what they title says. If I launch Firefox and immediately click in the URL bar to type in a search, instead of preventing the page URL from appearing, it adds it after my cursor once the page has loaded. For example, if I launch Firefox and immediately start typing "weather in my area" it becomes "weather in my areahttps://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions".

This is a mild frustration, but a persistent one. It must be possible to fix, because other browsers (Chrome) are clever enough to not add any text once the user clicks the URL bar. What can I do to stop this from happening?

Very often, recently, I can't communicate with an organization via their form on the WWW internet. After minutes of frustration, I change to a Chrome or Safari browser on my Mac, and it works just fine.

One of the problems is when filling out a form, Firefox says over and over there is an error. Safari takes that same data just fine, no error.

There are others, but I'll have to wait until Firefox fails again since it's not that easy to reproduce what happened days or weeks ago!

I have an odd situation happening and I'm hoping someone can share some insight or knowledge on how to get it resolved.

The short story is that I have a blog for my crochet business, along with an accompanying Pinterest account.

Back in December my blog was hacked for a few weeks. I got it resolved with my hosting provider and it's been working fine since.

However, at the same time I noticed that my Pinterest views dropped to almost zero, after years of very good traffic numbers from that account. When I went in to test my pins that go to my blog, I found that they lead to a spam website.

Out of curiosity, I decided to test the same pins using a private Firefox window. Those worked perfectly, leading to my blog content. I also tested them using the Safari and Chrome browsers, and those also worked perfectly.

So it seems that the only time my pin links go to the spam site is when I'm using a regular Firefox window. I don't know if that explains the enormous drop in views, but I find it just very strange that I only see it happen with the regular Firefox window.

Any insight or help would be appreciated. I did also message Pinterest to see if they had any thoughts on it. Here is one of my boards that has all pins leading to my blog. [https://www.pinterest.com/poshpattern.../posh-patterns-blog/]

Thanks!

Every time I turn on my computer or try to access G Mail and Google Calendar, I have to sign in. This did not happen in previous versions (I am now using 124.0).

Can anyone explain why this is so? I am missing something?

Will appreciate any guidance to solve this issue.
