Hello,

As the title implies, Firefox has been super annoying to use these past few days after moving a tab. I shift tabs around a lot to keep them organized, yet for the first time ever, shifting a tab has caused a permanent glitch on Firefox.

The preexisting workarounds are to try moving a tab to "unfreeze" the address bar and toolbar, or to move the window to another monitor and letting the issue fix itself, but both options have not done anything.

Additionally, as shown in the image attached, the "moved" tab winds up being a floating tab that is unclickable and floats "above" the other tabs. That tab can be accessed only through the CMND + tab option, which is also another inconvenience.

Really hoping the community has a solve because I transferred from Google Chrome due to Ublock becoming obsolete on that browser, and I would prefer not having to find another browser. Thank you!

I read the FAQ about this feature. I read this about whether the stories are personalized to me:

... When personalization does occur, recommendations rely on a process of story sorting and filtering that happens locally in your personal copy of Firefox.

But there is no place that tells me how to turn this off if I don't want the stories personalized to me, and I do not want them personalized. The algorithms make assumptions about what I want to read and learn. But I want to be free to encounter and learn things that I might not otherwise come across.

How can I avoid being pigeonholed and limited in this way?

I recently changed my preferences to allow web sites to choose their own fonts, but now that I’ve changed it back, Firefox refuses to use that font or any other that I choose. I’ve tried clearing the cache and cookies, logging out and then logging in again, quitting and restarting, etc., but it still doesn’t work.

What can be done about this problem that should never happen? I’m running Firefox 140.5 ESR on macOS 15.7.1, and my Privacy setting are set to Standard.

Any solutions out there?

How do I get the site to load when I KNOW the website is secure. This happens too, too often! I really don't want to have to use a different browser.

Please... FIX THIS!!!

I've deselected "Clear history when Firefox closes" 3 times already, and it keeps coming back. I don't want my browsing, and especially search and form history to be deleted, I use it every day. How do I stop this option from coming back? Or do I have to abandon my decades-long relationship with Firefox and find another, less annoying browser?

As a senior why is my FireFox changing I dont know how to get it back to what it use to look like all my book marks are not here on my desktop

I am not a tec person I just want the same as it was!

Please help I have bills to pay

Hi, there.

After performing the most recent Firefox update, I was greeted with the "create a new profile prompt", rather than having it open my old one. When going to "about:profiles", ALL FILES in the Root Directory of my old, default profile have the same date as the update, or after. Not a single file is older than that and all my history and bookmarks are gone. The option "Restore Previous Session" was not shown after the update.

PLEASE HELP!!

Thank you.

PS: This happened on a Macbook Pro. All other profiles are the same as they were before the update, having kept all history and bookmarks.

I just updated my browser less than a week ago. Today I got another notification for yet another update. This logs me out of everything.

WHY so many and so frequent are firefox browser updates. I am about to stop using this brower if it continues. It's very disruptive!

Thank you for your attention to this.

Reporting an ongoing issue where the Saved Credit Cards section is missing from Firefox’s settings. Autofill for credit cards still works in the browser, but I cannot view, edit, or delete any stored cards because the entire UI section is gone. The Payments / Saved Credit Cards section does NOT appear under Settings → Privacy & Security → Forms and Autofill. Autofill still fills credit card data, so Firefox clearly has stored cards. I just can’t manage them.

Older threads are now closed. Here is what I already checked

I confirmed the following in about:config: extensions.formautofill.creditCards.enabled → true extensions.formautofill.creditCards.available → true Set extensions.formautofill.creditCards.supported → "on"

Restarted Firefox

Hello!

I use a VPN when I access the web and I recently updated my OS (Mac OS Tahoe). I updated Firefox and now DNS over HTTPS (DoH) is enabled in Firefox. When I have my VPN enabled, I cannot access the web, there is some problem with DNS resolution. I have changed my Firefox DoH settings to Standard (I have also used Strict) and have typically been unable to resolve web URLs correctly. There have been a few times that I have been able to use 'Standard' DoH strictness / settings and also use the VPN successfully at the same time, but typically when I have the VPN enabled Firefox cannot access whichever 'mozilla.cloudflare' address it is attempting to use for DNS resolution.

The VPN vendor suggested always using the VPN's DNS resolver. I have done this and I still have the same problem. What should I do to ensure that I have secure DNS and can successfully use a VPN?

Thank you.
