Firefox Community Forum

I have been trying to clear out the cache under settings (cookies & site data) (everything is checked under clear data) everything clears out except for 440 now 454 KB of disk space. I cannot get it to clear out. I even uninstalled fire fox and it was clear for a couple of uses and now it is back and instead of 440 it is now 454. ••• Cookies and Site Data Your stored cookies, site data, and cache are currently using 454 KB of disk space. Learn more Based on your history settings, Firefox deletes cookies and site data from your session when you close the browser. ••• How do I zero it out. I find this annoying.

Thank you, Teri

My bookmark file was corrupted and I was eventually able to recover them using an old backup file. Now the issue is after I leave Firefox open long enough, the bookmarks disappear again. The folders are there but they are empty when I click on them. If I restart the browser they reappear. Beyond restarting, is there a fix for this?

I use Mozilla Firefox with Duckduckgo. This is very much my preferred setting...just not the way it's working now. Ann Marie

My primary PC died about a month ago, and the SSD is fried. I had it synced to both my phone and a secondary one, so no problem accessing things. I bought a new one online, and it just arrived. Then, when I tried opening all my tabs on my new PC, I found that they were no longer available, on either that one, or my other devices. This is new, because I had already recovered a few individual tabs to my phone previously, but I hadn't thought to open all 50-100 of them then since I was waiting on a new primary laptop. The device still shows up among the connected services on my account, but it doesn't show the tabs anywhere I could find, and since the SSD doesn't work I can't go into the files and manually port them over. Is there a way to solve this?

I have been a Firefox user pretty much since it was first released, raved about it to anyone who would listen & generally encouraged friends etc. to switch.

However, since the last update, now on 141.0 64 bit on Windows 11, I find myself using my backup browser -Opera - more & more, even though generally I have always considered it a much lesser browser than Firefox.

Two main reasons for this:

1. Firefox is set to open links in a new Tab - when I click on a link the Tab opens, the little circle-y thing goes round & round for 10-30 seconds, & then - absolutely nothing, just a blank Tab. If I close the Tab before it's finished 'loading' & try the link again - the same thing happens. If I wait till it's finished 'loading' &try the link again it will open th enew Tab & load the page successfully. This doesn't happen every time but definitely over 50% of the time.

2. When using YouTube, search pages will start to load the video thumbnails but then stop after a variable number - the thumbnail titles & link are visible & usable but where the thumbnail should be is just a placeholder. This happens practically all the time & requires multiple page reloads to correct it, & even that doesn't work sometimes.

3. I've had to use Opera to post this as Firefox would not let me access my Mozilla account

I have not added any new extensions since that last upgrade.

Neither of these issues arise when I use Opera so it's obviously not a connectivity or bandwith issue.

I'd be grateful if these issues could be corrected as Opera does not have all the functionality that I like in Firefox but it also doesn't drive me crazy with these issues.

Thanks

Why are new tabs opened when a link is clicked? In some websites new tabs are generated each time I click a link. I can end up with 5-10 tabs with the same header (tab).

Specifically Youtube videos, Youtube music songs and nothing else either never load (95% of the time), load only the first 10 seconds and then buffer or load partially after ~20 minutes. No error messages. Only in Firefox.

I tried: Reinstalling Firefox Switching profiles Disabling all extensions Running in safe mode Clearing site's cache and cookies

It's been like this for a couple of months. Been circumventing it by playing videos in a different browser, but would be nice if there was a fix.

since I put my computer on windows 11, I cannot upload photos on my blog operated by wordpress with firefox. But it works perfectly well if I navigate with edge. Can you tell me why? I would prefer to continue to navigate with firefox but it does not work for loading my photos even if I compress them. I never had difficulties with windows 10 ...

Hello,

I have the below problem with Firefox 141.0!

Ad blocking on the website => https://satkurier.pl/ - how to disable it?

A message appears in Polish: Please disable ad blocking and refresh the page.

Thank you for help in advance,

I guess it's just too simple for my needs. Without a field where I'm able to assign a recognizable name to an entry I'm in the position of having to memorize url's, instead of passwords. No gain. Frustrating!!!
