I've used Foxfire for a long time, love it! Within last 2 months videos started to not load, or load with no sound. Restart the computer everything works properly. Then after 1 or 2 hours videos would loose sound and slow down. At first I thought might be computer but everything checked out ok. NOW when videos fail to perform in someway, I copy the URL, open Chrome, insert in address bar and videos play as advertised. In fact, I have never had a problem when using Chrome. I've had several Foxfire updates by problem remains. Thinking maybe uninstall Foxfire and re-install?

Hi everyone,

I've noticed slow download speeds when using video downloaders on Firefox, especially for Pinterest videos. My site, PinVideoDownloader, has many users reporting this issue. Other browsers like Chrome and Edge don't seem to have this problem. Any tips to improve download speeds on Firefox?

Thanks!

How come FF translates sites in tiny, irrelevant languages like Bulgarian, but not from major languages like Chinese and Arabic?!?

I wish I could dump Edge, but this FF deficit forces me to keep Edge on my computer...

I have been using Firefox on my HP laptop for about 2 to 3 years. The current version is 130.0 which auto downloaded about a week or 2 ago. Now I am unable to login to my eTrade account unless I remove cache. The URL for the site is https://us.etrade.com/home/welcome-back. When I first click it, a tab pops up which is labeled Investing, Trading and Retirement with a dot on that tab that continues moving left to right to indicate it's trying to bring up the login page. It never times out. I noticed while it's doing that, there is verbiage down on the bottom left corner of the screen that says "Read c.evidon.com" which never goes away. If I go to Firefox settings and delete cache, the login screen will pop up after I restart Firefox. So I can end up logging in, but once I logout of eTrade and try to come back in, the same problem occurs. Never had this issue before but now is somewhat of a pain every time I need to get to my eTrade account. I also have Brave on my laptop and I don't have that issue when using it.

Dear Sir or Madam,

Once again, Firefox is blocking my ability to go into X (Twitter). I'm guessing you guys did an update and changed the settings again. PLEASE FIX. Thank you.

Sincerely, Britt

Starting just yesterday, and I have no clue what caused this to happen in the first place, my entire firefox browser, so tabs, toolbar, everything, is no longer functioning properly with the windows scale display settings I have anymore. For example, I have 2 monitors, one is a 1920x1080 monitor with 100% scaling applied, and the other one (my main monitor) is a 2560x1440 monitor with 125% scaling applied. I have the scaling settings applied like this because the normal resolution for 2k monitors is too small for me to read anything, so scaling it up by 125% makes the browser about identical on both monitors. It used to automatically scale the firefox browser to the monitor whenever I dragged them to the other monitor, but now the firefox just stays at 125% zoom no matter what monitor I swap it to (this is windows scaling zoom, not firefox tab zoom). So on my 2k monitor, it looks fine, but on my 1920x1080 monitor, it still retains the 125% zoom from my other monitor, making it way over zoomed. I've tried changing layout.css.devPixelsPerPx but that just makes the browser scaling static across monitors, so I've since swapped it back to -1.0

Is there any way I can fix this? the difference in scaling between the monitors is way too massive to be able to use firefox comfortably. Attached I have two screenshots showing the difference in scaling.

Hey I've reinstalled my PC i installed Firefox. Login to Firefox Sync. And now it's empty. no tabs, no passwords, everything is gone. I usually do this every time and it work. I am sync my Android phone with all my passwords and bookmarks

I can't get any app from Google to stay open. It's a nightmare. I've restarted several times. Doesn't help. Everyother page is working.

Is this a bug in the latest version?

I get this same message. The page flashes on then crashes and this message appears.

Yesterday, I noticed after I closed and re-opened Firefox, my browsing session was completely gone - all my tabs and windows, my entire browsing history, website sign-in status, all completely gone. I've been troubleshooting since then.

I've noticed that the 'sessionstore-backups' folder in my profile folder is missing. When I open Firefox, this folder is created and Firefox writes some data to it, but Firefox seems to delete the folder as soon as I quit Firefox. Firefox should not be doing this. My Firefox is configured to open previous windows and tabs, and is NOT configured to wipe any browsing data of any kind when it closes.

As a sanity check, I spun up a Windows Sandbox (briefly, it's a clean, isolated Windows environment) and installed Firefox there. I also enabled the option 'Open previous windows and tabs'. Firefox behaves normally - it re-opens the tabs/windows I had open when I quit Firefox. Great, that's what I expect. The trouble starts as soon as I sign in to sync. After signing in to sync, and letting the initial sync process complete, I open a couple of windows and tabs, then quit Firefox. Firefox begins nuking my browsing session again - the 'sessionstore-backups' folder is erased, and next time I start Firefox, all my windows and tabs are missing, and my browsing history is missing.

So, at this point, I'm assuming something in my synced data has become corrupt. I haven't installed any new extensions lately. I haven't changed any of Firefox's settings that would cause this to happen. The only thing I have done differently lately was enable Firefox Sync in LibreWolf and sign in to sync there. It seems like this session-nuking trouble started after I signed in to sync in LibreWolf. I assumed, since LibreWolf is a fork of Firefox, and because there were no warnings or indications the feature was incomplete/unstable/experimental/etc., that it would just work, that it wouldn't cause any issues. But it seems like it has caused issues. I checked LibreWolf's issues tracker for anything related to 'sync', but I didn't see anything noteworthy.

I've been using Firefox and Sync for numerous years without issue. This session-nuking thing started yesterday.

I use Firefox in a few places, and based on what I saw happen in my Windows Sandbox, this session-nuking issue is going to happen in every Firefox I'm signed in to as soon as it has a chance to sync. Obviously, I do not want this to happen.

What can I do to determine what the issue is? What can I do to check if something in my synced data has become corrupted? What can I do to reverse it? I'm not opposed to completely wiping/resetting my synced data, but I'd rather not if I don't have to. The only thing I would lose sleep over is my bookmarks, but I know I can export them. Are there any debug logs I can enable/look at? Anything I should look for in Event Viewer?

Thanks.

Hello,

This morning, for the very first time in 12 years, I opened my hotmail/outlook email tab and got a completely blank white screen, and nothing more. I've restarted my laptop twice, just to see if it was a Windows glitch. Nope. I disabled ad blockers with the little shield in front of the URL--still no change.

I love Firefox and prefer to use nothing else. However, I tried to open my email with Edge and it works fine. It also works fine on my older computer that did NOT get the Firefox update, so something is amiss here. Firefox updated recently on this machine and I'm wondering if something went wrong in the update. I'm not very tech savvy, but can anyone help me?

Thank you, Marsha

I was using Firefox for last 5-8 years and all data was saved. Few days back i was started using Linux Debian 12. i tried to login for sync but , after logging all data was erased. I tried from windows also , no data.
