Fórum podpory Firefox

02/09/2024. For the past 4 or 5 days I've been getting a warning not to proceed any search on Firefox. Here's part of the message: "Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to resultsvlt.com. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details. What can you do about it? The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem. " xfinity is the service provider and I live in Olympia, WA." Please advise.

When using Chrome Dev Tools, I can block a request, and when I open or close Dev Tools, the request is still in the "Network request blocking" tab. It means it keeps a history of networks which I blocked.

With Firefox, as soon as I close my Dev Tools, my blocked requests are gone. Every time I open my Dev Tools in Firefox, I need to search through my notes to remember which requests I need to block, instead of being able to simply select a request from a list of previously blocked requests like in Chrome.

I keep getting this message did not connect:potential security issue. I went to my credit union and they find no problem with their website and I am able access my account on their computer. This just came up Friday

I dont know why but all of a sudden when I turn my imac on I am having things start up and they never did before. So how do I keep Firefox from starting up when I turn imac on? I am getting really tired of having to shut off apps.

I recently performed a system reset and upon re downloading Firefox I can't seem to find any of my 50+ tabs that I had open previously, all of them I need for one reason or another, history is empty, can anyone please help explain how to get them back in simple steps?

Hello, Firefox somehow crashed. Opening did not reinstall the tabs. This has happened couple of times in the past 10+ years and I was able to recall from History to reinstall the Tabs. Now I don't see that function in the Menu. Please help. I know there is a time limit to re-install them.

I just want to express my frustration.

Today during removal of Firefox (due to bug in Windows "winget" upgrader I got two versions of FF - 122.0 and 122.0.1 so wanted to remove one) I accidentally clicked "Refresh Firefox instead" without knowing what's going to happen in a few seconds.

Soon I was presented with a nice and clean Firefox window with no open tabs, no history and no addons.

I quickly went to my profile folder (%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles) only to discover that no full backup was made prior to "refreshing". There were some files preserved - places.sqlite, cookies.sqlite, but no addons, and no sessionstore.jsonlz4. From what I can see, some of the carefully tweaked settings in about:config are also lost.

Fortunately I made my own backup on 10th of October 2023, so I recovered most addons and some of the open tabs. I'm now in the process of restoring other tabs from history. But I like to have them open for weeks or even months, so it's going to take me a lot of time.

The Refresh Firefox thing should be removed because it only destroys data. OR MAKE THE DAMN FULL BACKUP OF THE ENTIRE ***UNTOUCHED*** USER PROFILE ***BEFORE*** REFRESHING IT!!!!!!!!!

You never cease to disappoint, Firefox. Now I'll waste a lot of time to restore what I had before clicking that damn button. And I need to set up a regular profile backup because I cannot trust the software I tried to trust the most... No wonder you're losing users. That is totally unacceptable.

Any clues on how to restore my profile to the state before the "refresh" disaster?

Before, when I started to write an address, firefox did not remember and I have to write it. That was fine. Now, it remembers everything and everything is kept in the history despite I close the private and open it again. Any other person can open the private again and see the last thing you were doing. No real private browsing, no fun

New computer (Windows 11) shows 'Old Firefox Data'. Opened hidden files. Using File Explorer found Profile Folder & renamed it 'old'. Copied and pasted 'Old Firefox Data' as new profile. Firefox would not open. Had to remove etc and Firefox worked again. Thought this maybe the easiest way to get my Bookmarks back.

PS Presume Profile Folder does not contain Thunderbird Addresses?

Hello, In old versions of Firefox picture-in-picture mode was "always on top" by default, now "always on top" mus to be enabled every time I pop-out every video. Is there any solution to make picture-in-picture mode "always on top" by default?

I tried to pay my Wells Fargo VISA bill online as I do every month. This morning it listed all my accounts correctly on the 'Accounts' screen, but when I clicked the options to transfer money, depending on the screen I was on, it gave a message "you do not have two accounts to transfer money from and to" (not the exact wording.)

I tried to use a different path to do the same thing, and on that screen it displayed the 'FROM' accounts correctly but the "TO" account area was blank.

I had to close Firefox, load Edge, and was able to transfer the money from the checking account and pay the VISA bill.

This has never happened before and I have done this transfer and pay operation every month for years. Something has changed in the browser and needs to be fixed.

We have 5 devices and have always been able to log in to any or all of them. Now, we can only log in from our laptop. I have entered the login data manually and with Norton 365. The only device we can get logged in on is the laptop. All of the devices are running the latest version of Firefox. I have cleared the cache re-booted all of them with no change.

I posted a question on the Firefox support page, and a support volunteer responded but his posting was not helpful and so I tried to post a reply. However, I tried several times over a period of many hours, and was not successful because I kept getting a message that said "Oh, no! It looks like an unexpected error occurred. We've already notified the site administrators. Please try again now, or in a few minutes." Some of the times that this occurred were at approximately 3:30 AM, 10:35 AM, 11:01 AM and 11:10 AM (Central Standard Time). I also tried using a different browser and still got the same message.

  What can be done to correct this problem?

How do I add a link to the start page that shows when you open a new tab? I've read support docs and I don't have a "pin icon" on my toolbar... I'm on MacOS (M1) and latest (Feb '24) FireFox...... how can it be so non-intuitive? I can't find an option anywhere...

I'm still using windows professional 7, it works for the most part. Unfortunately often the browser won't load or it will load and runs very slowly, then it shows a box saying close previous firefox. When it is running slowly I often have to hit the browser many times until the box shows up saying close previous firefox. Is this something to do with windows 7 or another completely different issue.

sinds een week staan bij alle ontvangen emails bovenin een scherm met allerlei gegevens die wij niet kennen en waarvan wij niet weten wat het is. Ik denk dat er een fout gemaakt is bij het oploaden van een van de laatste versies, maar ik weet dat natuurlijk niet zeker. ik ben een leek en geen programmeur. als ik een email wil afdrukken krijg ik eerst 3 pagina's met deze informatie. Ik heb het eerste en derde blad gescand en zal die toevoegen. Na de 3e pagina komt pas de email die ik wil gebruiken.

Hoe raak ik die informatie die ik niet wil hebben kwijt?
