Hi,

Can we get an auto-reconnect feature in Mozilla VPN?

It's a requirement for my particular setup as my agent operates independently, but errors out when the VPN is off. Ideally we would be able to select the suitable regions that it tries to connect to after a drop - a first, second, third drop down menu or similar would work.

I love having the VPN Add-on on my Windows 11 laptop and now I see that there's a plug in for my Android Tablet, too.

I see there's options to turn OFF the VPN, but i don't need it on all the time. To save the data limit, I keep the VPN turned off.

There are some sites that I log into that require me to either not be from Australia amd some I need to be VPN linked to specific countries, like the UK or USA.

Will there be a place to be able to list particular websites to turn the VPN ON for, and, where needed, specify a country to connect to?

Недавно сбросил телефон до завода, но перед этим зашел на вк аккаунт с купленным номером и фейк данными к которому привязанно достаточно аккаунтов от почты... А проблема в том, что как оказалось делал я это через приватный браузер! Ну окно случайно закрыл и по итогу потерял все что перенес( Служба поддержки в вк ни чем помочь не может , тк привязан номер не мой (а его я вообще не помню) + данные (ФИО) левые. На почту я также не могу зайти , тк они привязанны к вк айди и подтвердить что вк мой - не могу пхахах

I wanted to try out the new VPN location feature to access BBC Sounds again. So I set it to UK and opened the website. Yesterday, it worked a single time. Then I had some trouble setting up VPN and profiles and stuff (I can't route all traffic through the public VPN because some pages are in my local network or Wireguard VPN). Today I have a separate Firefox profile and tried again, but it repeatedly doesn't work. I cleared cache, cookies and all the rest, but it keeps redirecting me to bbc.com. My public IP address through Mozilla VPN UK is 63.2xx.xxx.xxx which is registered in the USA, so that VPN location trick is probably useless, fake or broken. Any experiences with that?

Just getting started using Mozilla features after many years absence. So much has changed! I have yet to decide what I need help with. All of it! So let me proceed on my own to figure this out and return for support when I feel I need it most, and more importantly, when I feel I feel I have the time and energy to devote to the learning curve required.

I regularly receive email advice (via Thunderbird) from companies to access my account with them.

Two days ago I selected a link to direct me to the secure form. I note that the exact same link has been provided to me in the past and opened. This time however I was confronted with "Invalid Address".

I was advised to copy the link into another browser; I chose "Edge" and the form opened.

I have cleared FireFox's "Recent History" but that still gives no joy.

How do I overcome this?

Is there something in a configuration file that I might edit, or a potentially corrupt Windows Registry entry?

I do not use any Windows Security depending upon Bitdefender (which has never created any issues of this nature).

I had a problem some months ago and my filters were compromised, so I was put on hundreds of mailing lists from commercial sites all over the world. I still get a new one once in a while, but there's one persistent one that doesn't have an 'unsubscribe' option and--despite repeatedly marking it as 'Spam' and trying to block it via a filter STILL keeps getting thru, generally an email or two about their products per day. Is there any way to report these people as a nuisance or block them totally? The problem isn't earth-ending but it is Vexing. Thanks.

Ok, there are a couple things that seem related and are worrying me.

First, every time lately that I have signed in to something new (new online account, FEMA, etc), when the little window pops up to ask if I want to save the log in info, it doesn't have the password I entered, but instead an immense string of characters (I'd say several hundred) AND I just saw this last time as I was erasing the password, that it actually looks like it might be a web address (I just briefly saw http:// before it was erased)

The next thing that has just happened today (Is black Friday now like solar flare ID theft Friday or something?!?!) is that when I tried to sign in to...I think it only happened on Amazon...when I clicked on the email/user box it took me to my saved passwords page. Every time. I couldn't even enter the log in because it would just go to passwords. That's really really worrisome.

And, then, the last thing that I haven't had a problem with so far since getting a new computer is every now and then my computer would all of a sudden just start doing things on it's own. I was logged in to an online store once that had my card saved and my computer just ordered everything in my cart. Once I was browsing on the library and it cancelled all the books I had on hold. I have video where it would just start entering random stuff in fields.

I have changed my keyboard and the keyboard I have now is wired.

Any ideas on what this might be? Or do I really have some serious bad guys out there messing with me?

Hey all. Please help.

Periodically I delete my cookies and site data thus... Preferences/Privacy & Security/Cookies and Site Data/Clear Data. I used to use an add on for this but it stopped working.

Today it says I have "Temporary and cached files 1.3 MB". But it says that after Clear Data. It says it after I quit and restart Firefox. And I still says it after restart the computer. My Manage Data... and Manage Exceptions... boxes are empty. I have tried running Antivirus Zap Pro, which doesn't find anything sinister. How can I get rid of it... whatever it is? Can I access the folder and delete it manually?

I'm on an old Macbook Air, running Monterey. With the latest Firefox 132.0.2

Thanks in advance.

"hi yes we're firefox, a private browser that prides ourselves on being without bloatware. but we're going to add ai integration! yay!" Are you kidding me? What is wrong with you? This new CEO joins and wants to destroy what Firefox *prides itself on* and WHY PEOPLE use it. I am very disappointed. I converted to Mozilla from Google years ago and have loved it ever since. It's such an absolute shame; I will have to find a new company to support. Was the point of Mozilla not to create private, secure programs? Do not integrate AI. We don't want it. We hate it. It's useless and it kills the earth. And I sure as heck won't be comfortable storing my passwords in my account anymore! You will destroy this.

Free youtube downloader wants my age from Firefox to download popular music videos. I am logged in to FireFox and Free YouTube downloader identifies FireFox as my default browser.

This is really an error for Free YouTube Downloader to correct, but many FireFox users must have solved this already. Any advice?

Thank you!

When I last tried to buy with Google stored debit card from my bank the transaction was blocked by the presence of a four-month old phone number. I have updated several weeks ago to my current telephone number and address. Yet the new number is not there, instead the old number is not helping me.
