Firefox Community Forum

I can't access Bookmarks anymore, I have many saved sites and I can't find them anymore? What can I do? My configuration has completely changed and I don't know where to start? I can't even translate with Google, it keeps stopping

Up until today I have never had trouble accessing My [edited from community support forum] @deamer.org address for the Deamer.org website But to day I am completely block our by Fire fox for even getting to Deamer.org and I get this message Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue

Firefox detected an issue and did not continue to 408916.svc.e1m.net. The website is either misconfigured or your computer clock is set to the wrong time.

It’s likely the website’s certificate is expired, which prevents Firefox from connecting securely.

What can you do about it?

408916.svc.e1m.net has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem.

Hello, When I went to launch Firefox after starting up my PC this morning, I was greeted with: "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible".

I went right to the Mozilla forums and found the help page [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-run-firefox-when-profile-missing...] . In this article it detailed how I should go into my AppData, then Mozilla, then Firefox, and look to see where my profile.ini file is. My profile.ini file was there, alongside the installs.ini and a few other folders. I attempted also to launch the profile manager using run and the "firefox.exe -P" command, but I got the same profile error as when I tried launching the app. The help page then recommended deleting the profile.ini file and then launching Firefox to hopefully remake the default profiles.ini file and enable me to launch Firefox, so I attempted that. When I tried relaunching Firefox, the profiles.ini file did not re-appear in my Firefox folder.

I then tried deleting the Firefox folder itself, and relaunching Firefox. This resulted in it being remade, but with just 2 folders left: Crash Reports and Pending Pings. Obviously that's not ideal, so I right clicked the Firefox folder and used the Windows "Previous versions" feature to restore the Firefox folder to a backup of how it was this morning. I then re-tried launching and I still got the same missing profiles error message. I also briefly attempted manually making a new profiles.ini file with notepad, and pointing it towards my Profile withing my Profiles folder, but that still resulted in the same missing profiles error.

This is basically where I am at now. I have confirmed that I do in fact see my actual profile in my "C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles" folder, and as far as I can tell my profiles.ini file correctly points towards it. I did another reset of my Firefox folder to a backup of where I was at this morning before attempting anything. I can confirm my Windows account (Admin, and only account on the computer) has full read and write access to all Folders and files within the Mozilla folder, although I will mention some of the files in the Firefox folder were marked with the "Read-Only" attribute (not sure if that matters, but I tried unchecking those and still no luck)

As far as I can tell I have thoroughly exhausted all the easily accessible tips on the internet for solving this, so I am wondering what to try next?

TLDR: Error: Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible" Already Attempted (And failed): -deleting and prompting a remake of the profiles.ini folder -using firefox.exe -P to launch Profile manager -deleting Firefox folder to prompt a remake of that -multiple uninstalls and reinstalls of Firefox -manually remaking profiles.ini file after it didn't come back after deletion

Will link images of (1) profiles.ini file. (2) Profiles folder.

Hi! So I have Windows 10, but don't know if that's what's causing these issues. Certain websites, that is, Instagram, Bluesky, Youtube, Yahoo, Facebook, and Norwegian news site NRK, as far as I've seen, are not loading properly. Insta and NRK are in simple mode, no matter how many times I refresh Yahoo initially says "failed to load", then resolves itself upon refreshing, but it's really annoying to have to refresh for every message and going back to the main inbox Youtube videos are stuck on the spinny wheel of death, and along with Reddit, one other symptom is that the profile pictures won't load. Reddit posts also won't load beyond the first few, and "continue thread" doesn't do anything Facebook won't load at all, still nothing as I refreshed just now. Bluesky, I'm not sure is Firefox's fault, or what, but I get the "Oops network error", at least on one user, it turns out, but not another, nor on Bluesky main page (I swear, it sometimes feels like at least Meta has something against Vivienne Medrano, because I was also having issues with Insta not showing posts in full screen mode before this became an issue, and it was only majority Hellaverse accounts that had these issues. The Bluesky account that won't load is also a Hellaverse account. Either way, that's not here nor there regarding this issue)

What on Earth is going on?! Is it that I have too many tabs? I do have around 1000 tabs, which I guess could be an issue, but it hasn't been until today, two or so hours ago. I was even fine last night! Is 1000 the limit, or something? I do have some ad removers, which btw, some other video watching sites suddenly won't load the videos unless I turn the adblocks off, not cool

Please respond quickly, I am losing my mind here /halfjoking -Helene

Good day! Initially, I installed Firefox version (x64 ru) 147.0.3. After updating via the "Help - About Firefox - Update" menu, I received version 147.0.4. However, there are two entries about installed Firefox in the Windows section "Installed applications": 1. Mozilla Firefox (x64 ru) 147.0.3 and 2. Mozilla Firefox (x64 ru) 147.0.4. Although one instance of the program is installed. How do I remove an extra entry? Thank you.

PS: I have Windows 11 Pro 25H2 (26200.7840, 1000.26100.291.0) Russian CPU AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor RAM 32,0 ГБ System x64 Video NVidia GeForce 1650

... just that. Actually I wanted to print a selection, but if the selection is longer than one page, only one page will print. So I thought if I could save the selection to a file, and then print that file, I'd solve my problem.

Greetings. Am running Firefox 147.0.4 (aarch64) on a MacBookPro running Mac OS Tahoe 26.3. When I first launch Firefox, it sits and does nothing for 30 to 45 seconds, I have it set to open a National Weather Service forecast page at startup, but even if I try to type in a different URL, Firefox won't allow me to do anything --or even quit the application -- until that first web page finally loads. Have tried clearing all history, including cookies and site data, but that does not help. The hangup was even longer until I worked with Apple tech support to turn off some universal add-ins like Content Barrier (Intego) or anything that acted like a VPN. Apple told me the hang is apparently caused by a Firefox add-in or extension. But I can't figure out how to find any or how to turn it off.

Hi Firefox support,

I’m experiencing a persistent issue with Google Fonts (.woff2) on Windows 10. Only on some but not all pages whoch are using Google Font woff2: Fonts display correctly after starting Firefox, but as soon as I reload the pages with for the first time, they appear corrupted and remain broken. Private Browsing mode renders the fonts correctly, and Chrome does not have this problem.

Below is a detailed list of everything I’ve tried with ChatGPT so far to troubleshoot the issue.

(OS: latest Windows 10)

Browser: Firefox (freshly installed, no sync)

Behavior:

Example site: https://www.linguee.de/

Steps already attempted:

Disabled all extensions

Tested in Firefox Safe Mode / Troubleshoot Mode

Created a new Firefox profile

Fresh Firefox installation without signing in

Deleted all relevant caches:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\cache2

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\storage

%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\startupCache

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\

Verified / adjusted Firefox config in about:config:

browser.display.use_document_fonts = 1

gfx.webrender.all = false

WebRender running in WebRender (Software) mode

privacy.resistFingerprinting = false

browser.cache.disk.enable = false

network.http.rcwn.enabled = false

accessibility.force_disabled = 1

Disabled hardware acceleration for testing

Tested DirectWrite / Direct3D settings

Recalibrated ClearType

Ran sfc /scannow to repair system fonts

Temporarily disabled antivirus / web protection

Tested behavior in private mode versus normal mode

Observed that hard reload (Ctrl + F5) does not fix fonts

Noted that only .woff2 (Google Fonts) are affected; system fonts render normally

Summary:

Issue is not caused by extensions, profile, cache, or a fresh install

Private Browsing works → problem is related to persistent normal-mode caching or rendering

Only occurs in normal windows, consistently reproducible after first reload

Problem seems specific to .woff2 font handling and Firefox’s rendering pipeline on Windows 10

I can't access the Chewy web site to buy pet food. I'm guessing it's due to an add blocker feature in Firefox. I do believe there is a way to turn that function off for certain URLs. How do I do that?
