Since I upgraded from Kaspersky Internet Security to Kaspersky Plus, my Protected Browser version of Firefox has lost track of my current Protected bookmarks and stored passwords - but the bookmarks and passwords in the standard (i.e. not Protected Browser) Firefox remain the current set. Unfortunately this is a different set, so I no longer have access to the Protected passwords etc. Although Firefox has just updated to 124.0.1 the About display in Protected Browser insists "Firefox is being updated by another instance". Kaspersky have studied the GetSystemInfo report and cannot find anything amiss, so is Firefox causing the problem? e.g. where in Firefox did Kaspersky manage to find a three-years-out-of-date set of bookmarks and passwords?

About a week ago I started getting these update error messages stating "Update available - Firefox couldn't update automatically. Download the new version". I've also tried clicking "learn more" on the error message but it's a dead link. Going into the settings for updates I am set to auto update, but when I manually check for updates it says "Failed to check for updates".

The help article on this issue simply tells you to download and manually reinstall Firefox, but I'm having to do this nearly every day. I work in IT myself so I know a "bandaid" workaround when I see one. Is there a solution to this issue?

Hello. I have a problem on an old laptop. The laptop cannot play videos with a resolution greater than 720 pixels. A situation often arises when you open a website and cannot watch a video there made by customers about a product. There is no option to select resolution on many sites, and browsers by default try to play videos at the maximum resolution, ignoring the capabilities of the laptop. The essence of the question is, is it possible to limit the video resolution for all sites in a browser or system?

My browser keeps crashing for literally no reason. It's happened like 20 times in the last 10 minutes. I can't use it for more than 5 minutes without either my tab crashing or the entire browser crashing. Here is my latest crash report: https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/d2ea16e0-98a5-41d1-ad16-cf2fd0240324

The "Crash reason" is "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_EXEC". I have tried changing out my RAM and updating my drivers. I have ran all the system check programs ("sfc /scannow", "chkdsk" and the Windows Memory Diagnostic) and they all report no problems. Please help me as soon as possible as I just can not continue using the browser like this.

When FF loaded for first time after update had message about being able to fill in PDF documents. Even said give it a try on a option block. Then it displayed a form with blanks to enter name etc. However I wasn't able to enter name or data in the fields they sent me for trying it out. I could do other things with PDF FF displayed, draw, add text box, but not enter data on the form they sent to try it out. Wish I had saved the PDF they sent to show the new feature.

Basically, any time I load an embedded video file, it will play fine until about the last second.

Not sure if it's something to do with being on Linux.

Every time I attempt to do something login related (signing in, signing out, signing up) with any website that uses Cloudflare for DDoS protection I get stuck in a verification loop. It prompts me to check the checkbox saying 'I'm not a robot' and it displays the loading circles, but it prompts me to check it again. This cycle repeats seemingly forever. Wth is up Cloudflare?????

This happens to many websites that I use daily/on a frequent basis (Canva, ChatGPT/OpenAI, Perplexity). Strangely enough, when I tried it on another browser (Google Chrome) I did not have the verification loop. This is a REAL pain as

  1. The laptop I use is shared between multiple members of my family
  2. I do stuff that needs privacy

Doing it on chrome will reveal all the s*** I do to my family. And no, it's not like I'm watching p**n on my pc. I use these utilities for business work and I'm concerned it may leak out to my kids.

One reason I suspect it's happening is likely due to my increased cursor speed (I set it to full), but then why isn't it happening on Chrome?

Here are the extensions I have installed:

  • AdBlock Plus
  • User-Agent Switcher
  • Disable Javascript
  • Privacy Pass

Firefox doesn't seem to handle date entries properly. For example, when I set a date on a website it automatically changes to something other than what I set it to. Sometimes it's off by a day, sometimes it's off by a dozen days. Sometimes when the site displays a calendar navigator (showing the year and a monthly calendar where you can cycle through the year and month to select a specific day on the calendar) there's no calendar to select from. There might be a year and month selector that I can cycle through but there's no calendar to make a selection. If there is a calendar and I select a date, a different date is displayed in the entry box. This also happens when I manually enter a date. I could type 3/8/2024 and when I hit tab or click off the box it will change to 3/6/2024 or something like that. It's not always the same number of days off. I could then enter 3/10/2024 to try to trick it, but it might display 3/9/2024. The issue seems to extend behind the scenes. For example if I'm paying a bill online the site will automatically show today's date as the day the payment should be made, and it will display correctly, but when I submit my payment an error indicates that the payment date occurs in the past. I have to change the date to a day or two in the future in order for the site to process the payment. I recently noticed in my Geico Timeline, where I can see a history of events, as I scroll, the dates will flicker to a day prior and sometimes they will stay on the day prior until I scroll again and it changes back. Only the day number changes, the time and year remain the same, and it's always to one day prior.

I've run Malware Bytes, Spybot S&D, and Windows virus scan. I've updated Firefox (set to automatic) and disabled plugins. I don't have the problem on other browsers.

Back in November 2023 I had the misfortune of a software engineer not doing his job correctly and he reinstalled the OS on my laptop instead of repairing some software that wasn't functioning correctly. Mercifully, I have had Microsoft support working on recovering my data, which has proved a tremendous task. 4 months and counting.


We have now finally managed to recover my passwords for my browsers, but they are encrypted. Microsoft Support have therefore asked if Mozilla do a decryption tool as they cannot open the file without it being decrypted first. If I was using Microsoft Edge, they would have been able to assist as that is a Microsoft product, but as Firefox is a third party application, they've asked for assistance. By the way, these are NOT scammers or hackers 'helping' me, but Microsoft support and I get everything emailed about our support etc.

Thanks in advance.

We should not need some special extension to do this. It should be an option off the Settings tab
