Firefox Community Forum

Firefox keeps crashing my computer while playing graphics-intensive games, yet with Firefox off they function perfectly. This seems to be still an issue since 2015. It'll be a shame to switch browsers since i been using this since it was called Netscape 2

Firefox has just introduced wallpapers for browser home page. I cannot get it to work. It's either cropped too small or pixilated, is there a setting I need to adjust, or a particular image format? So that it looks ok.

I have a WINDOWS computer and I use Windows 11.

My Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar has several FOLDERS.

Each Folder has "drop-down" components.

Example: FINANCIAL Folder includes: Pension

                                                                Social Security
                                                                Military Retirement pay
                                                                15 or so "others"

                 BANKS Folder includes:  Bank #1 ( name witheld)
                                                           Bank #2 ( "         "         )
                                                           couple more

                 MEDICAL Folder includes :   Medicare
                                                                My Chart
                                                                couple more

Everything looked great. Worked great too.

Then, next time Computer turned on, the FINANCIAL Folder had "Pension"

                                                                                                           "Pension" ( same one again )
                                                                                                           "Pension" ( same one again )
                                                                                                           "Pension" ( same one again )
                                                                                                           "Social Security"
                                                                                                           "Social Security" ( same one again )
                                                                                                           "Social Security" ( 3 more times)
                                                                                                            ALL THE REST - GONE !!

Several Folders now 2-4 more times showing on the Bookmarks Toolbar Additionally, MANY Folders are now "Missing" !!!

A day or so later, the Bookmarks Toolbar was CORRECT !

A day or so later, the Bookmarks Toolbar was ALL WRONG as described above.

What is going on ??

Is there a way to FIX this? Do I need to go to GOOGLE CHROME / MICROSOFT EDGE ??

Similarly I have tried to LOG-ON to my Marriott Hotel website and things did not work correctly. I called Marriott Reservations and described the problem. Marriott asked IF I was using Firefox? I replied "YES". They said to use Google Chrome instead.

I used CHROME and everything worked GREAT !!!

Is this the answer? Firefox is not being properly supported? I should switch Browsers ??

I have used Firefox for MANY years. These problems are VERY recent.

I have always thought that "hackers" targeted Microsoft so Firefox had a "lower profile" and was therefore "SAFER".

I am losing confidence in Firefox.

Are these problems that other Firefox users are having also?

I liked Firefox's recent REVIEWS of "Ratings" -- but that was terminated recently.

Something "smells BAD" about Firefox.

What gives?

If your recommendation is to "abandon Firefox", which Browser do you recommend?

You help is much appreciated.

Why on earth would you remove the ability to select move multiple tabs anywhere in an open window browser???? Until recently, I could select the first and last tab, hold shift and move them anywhere I chose. Now that feature doesn't work at all. It duplicates one tab or I'm given a choice to move to the front or last of all open tabs! Please give me the feature back!!1

I play a video game and it has a /wiki <thing> chat command that is supposed to open my browser tab to a search result of <thing> on that games wiki website. Firefox has stopped doing this. I can not find, or figure out, what settings to change to allow this to work.

I have been trying changing cookie settings and Firefox will have a pop about it already running, but not responding. I click cancel because Firefox seems to be working fine other wise.

Does anyone have any idea what I can do?

Hello, all. My first post here. My problem is that: When I'm done using Firefox and close the app, several copies remain and need to be closed separately. It's a minor annoyance, but I'd like to fix it. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Firefox just stopped showing the videos in youtube, I can hear the sound but no image, tested with 3 vids , all play normal on chrome sound and picture BUT NOT on firefox, I have cleared cache, updated firefox, rebooted, used CCleaner , cleared history, rebooted PC but to no avail. Are there any settings in Firefox that is preventing screening of utube vids. And how were they changed.? Regards and thanxs Janina

First of all, if you really want to help people, then offer phone or at least chat support -- not bots!

Second, I just uninstalled Firefox for the second time because of problems with connectivity and installing bookmarks

The first time was a problem with the bookmarks and again I had a problem, not with installing them but installing too many -- each imported bookmark installed seven times!

Also, I was having problems loading pages.

You really think people want to spend days rummaging through FAQs to find an answer? You need to provide some good support if you want to survive.

Hi,

PayPal has a new verification method that involves sliding a bar.

After doing so it says I've been blocked.

I can log in using Edge (but I don't want to have to use Edge for PayPal).

Any help is appreciated.

Hi, Once last week I had Firefox crash, like quite literally the window I had open just closed abruptly. Tried doing the refresh using the setup wizard and it did not help. Then I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling several times. Each time it'll open up like new, and within 10 minutes the window closes randomly and then Firefox doesn't launch anymore on my laptop. No error message, just does not launch whether I try to from taskbar or Home or even run as administrator. Seemingly random I've been using Firefox for months and it just started doing this last week.

Sorry for lack of other info, thanks for any help you're able to give.

I had my browser set to show certain bookmarks on the main browser and different bookmarks when I activated the Secure Banking page. now they seem to be combined?

Hello Firefox Support,

I’m encountering a strange issue with Firefox. While playing YouTube videos at very low quality (144p) just to listen to music, my GPU usage spikes to 100%. This happens even when the video is not fullscreen and there’s minimal visual content.

System Info:

   Firefox Version: 140.0.2 (64-bit)

   Operating System: Windows 11 

   CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 8700F (no integrated GPU)

   GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE

   GPU Driver Version: AMD Adrenalin 25.6.1 

The issue goes away when I disable hardware acceleration in Firefox settings, but I’d prefer to leave it enabled for better performance elsewhere.

Is this a known issue with AMD GPUs or is there something else I can try to reduce GPU usage during playback?

Thank you for your help.

Firefox refuses to open. What happens is, It'll open for like 1 frame and then close. This happened to Chrome last month too, which is actually why I installed Firefox. I have to uninstall it, then reinstall it from the website. If that doesn't work, I try the Microsoft Store. If that doesn't work either, I keep switching between them until it eventually opens. It breaks again when I turn off my computer. Thanks.

Picture verification is Not working in Firefox, works correctly in Chrome. This is the verification I have do at some sites to make sure it is me or that I am human after I have not been on a site for long while.

It keeps repeating the picture even though I select all proper pictures. It happens to all sites I visit.
