Firefox Community Forum

I had 6 groups in the sidebar showing when I closed Firefox last night. Today when I opened Firefox there was only one group showing how do I get the other groups re-displayed in the sidebar? I am finding no clues when using the last line in searching help

I keep getting this plug for Capital One shopping add-on. I keep rejecting it, but keeps coming back. I do have Capital One card - but not sure how connected those two are.

Let me know if you have good experience with this thing. Thanks.

When I open a new tab, I am shown topics on news, science, culture, etc> the first topics I am shown are sensational trivial garbage. I always enjoy seeing informative and educational content, but Firefox prioritizes gossip, Hollywood personalities and advertisements disguised as news.. You also prioritize hearsay, negativity, and biased news articles. Are your editors doing this deliberately, or are they simply focused on immature minds and biases? How do I change this, or should I eliminate all content from the new tab page? Thank you.

I set up firefox using my customised user.js, and I have been able to configure everything just as I want except for "Search Shortcuts".

Are there Firefox "preferences" (in the about:config "preferences" database) for the 10 or so "alternative search engine" entries (shown in about:preferences#search)? If not, is there any programmatic way that I can edit these "alternative search engine" entries so that I don't have to manually disable and/or remove them every time I install Firefox on a new machine?

TIA.

My computer shut down. I turned it back on, and the browser was completely updated. Nothing! I'm panicking. There's not a single backup anywhere. there is no folder on the desktop «Old Firefox Data» I don't know what to do I tried to restore bookmarks, but the list only showed other browsers.

Hi, I notice today that Firefox takes a really long time (~30s) to start. The main Firefox frame opens, totally empty, no tabs, nothing... and ~30s after, it starts.

I also notice that it is linked whith the VPN. When the VPN is active : long time, when the VPN is paused, normal start.

I have two computers, same reaction ! The first computer is used every day, so I have the problem on this one since the last update (I suppose).

The second computer has not been used for a week. I started the second computer today , I checked the VPN is active, I notice the first use of Firefox (which was still v148...) was as fast as usual, then Firefox automatically updets to 149.. and restart, and then, same behavior : long time as start.

I tried to go back to version 148, without any better results.

Can you help me please?

Two computer are in W11 up to date, and the VPN is NorthVPN up to date

Lost Mozilla as my default browser after accidentally opening my Facebook page using Edge. The only site that is corrupted is Facebook. All others work properly. I still want Mozilla. Looks like I've created a newer Mozilla account even though I used my password to open my account using my email address and password. My profile name has changed. Wondering if problem occurs because account is shared with my husband and our account is under his name/email. Any suggestions appreciated. We do subscribe to Norton. Thanks.

All the application windows I had opened on my Mac, closed due to a security related update. Now Firefox isn't showing any of my tab groups from before and also there's a weird behavior when you click on the Firefox icon, it opens a new window that is small, but when you do file > new window it also opens a window but full sized. I tried creating a new tab group and the second approach of doing file > new window is showing the tab group in the tab group menu, but the window created by doubling clicking the icon doesn't show it.

I rely heavily on tab groups to organize my browser sessions for different tasks and projects. I’ve experienced an issue where, after saving+closing tab groups, they disappear from the “Recent Tab Groups” section after some time. This means (EVERYTHING IS LOST) I have to recreate my organized tabs from scratch each time, which is a "significant workflow disruption" (to say lightly). I understand tab groups are designed to persist across sessions and the hinting fox menu says they should be available for reopening in “Recent Tab Groups” at anytime, but I’m finding this isn’t consistently working (on several devices I use). I’m hoping to understand if there’s a limitation or known issue with how tab groups are stored, and whether there’s a more reliable way to preserve these groupings long term. It’s possible others are running into this behavior too, and I’d appreciate insight into whether this is a known issue or if I’m missing something in how tab groups are managed. Perhaps a future patch could address this persistence problem for long term reliability?

i found this article somewhat related, but not really... https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1510334

Vor ein paar Tagen habe ich Esset home auf meinen Computer und mein Tablett installiert. Immer wenn ich das Internet (FireFox) öffne kommt die Warnmeldung "Sicheres Banking & Surfen ist erst nach einem Neustart des Computers voll funktionsfähig." Den Neustart habe ich bereits mehrmals veranlasst. Die Warnmeldung kommt aber immer wieder. Was soll ich machen? Bin ich beim OnlineBanking und Surfen nicht sicher?

Duckduckgo searching

The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

i have 4 accounts on firefox and i cannot remember which account i have been used through years now i cannot sync my old data however i have tried the 4 emails and accounts i used and non of them is working

how can you help me

Hello Mozilla, Firefox using Duck Duck Go. I am finding that connection to particular addresses within the USA are being returned as unavailable. Trying them over Google Chrome informs me that they are blocked by Google SafeSearch which I am unable to disconnect; Google suggest it's been locked in by the ISP. Is this the same situation with Firefox from the UK? Kind regards. Tim

Why do I today get the message "We have received an unusually large amount of requests from your IP so you have been rate limited" when I try and access https://www.trustpilot.com. I have not had it before today and do not get it when I use a different browser (Edge).
