Firefox Community Forum

How to recreate issue: 1. Copy password from an entry on about:logins on Firefox desktop app (Windows 11) 2. Open Windows 11 clipboard history (Win. Key + V) 3. Password is not listed in clipboard history 4. Password CAN be pasted within Firefox browser (including separate window) and separate applications 5. Copying another piece of information overwrites the item like normal a typical clipboard tool is supposed to work; you just have to copy it again if you need it again instead of opening Clipboard History.

What it affects: - Copying and pasting multiple passwords to a document, other password manager, or etc. is simply more cumbersome. - When managing multiple logins for the moment, it's easy to get confused (Is the password I just pasted for this login, or the last one?)

Obviously this isn't a big deal, and I am more so wondering if it's a bug or if it's meant to be restricted in such a way to increase security or something.

after the new version of firefox update my home page which i have always had Newsmax.com does not load says problem loading page i have tried several times and it will not load. it works in Google chrome so why not in Firefox

When Firefox was updated recently, my bookmarks toolbar had changed quite a bit. I need to know how to restore my Other Bookmarks list to be arranged in alphabetical order

Hi, I'm having this problem on 2 PCs and I'm not sure what in the world is going on. It's not only this browser but I'm trying to get Firefox sorted.

When on sites like Walmart or Costco I'll be scrolling down, click on something, hit 'back'...and then it won't return me to where I left off.

I'm really at wits end. I don't know if I have viruses on both causing aberrant behavior.

If the internet were in it's infancy last century, this would be understandable...or again maybe I have two compromised machines. I'm on the Malwarebytes forum doing all kinds of things to no avail. Defender and Malwarebytes don't find anything.

Thanks if anyone can provide some help. I'm starting to consider a dastardly ipad at this point...

Firefox lost all saved passwords and tabs. There are no other profiles on my system. It is like I just loaded a new version for the first time. Hopefully something is saved somewhere. I thought these were all saved to my profile but not anymore.

Mac Mini Pro M4, MacOs 26.6.1, Firefox 153.0.4 When I click on a "mailto" link I get a pop up that says select an app for mailto. In this popup, Firefox shows as the suggested app. I click on it and I get a message that says This Can Be Changed in Firefox Settings. When i select Firefox in this popup nothing happens. When I look at the mailto setting in Firefox it clearly says Firefox. Help. Thanks, Pete D.

this issue has arisen suddenly over the last month. so i try to load bandcamp and for a few moments i'm able to go from page to page. after a certain short amount of time has passed between me opening the site and using it, just seconds, upon me clicking a link, pages initially appear to load [the refresh button switches to the X icon] before they quickly halt and keep me stuck on the same page. attempting to open a link in a new tab in this state gives a blank page - not showing as about:blank in the url but the intended destination. sometimes when i try to confirm a change on something i have uploaded to the site or try to log in, bandcamp gives an error reading "There was network error. Please try again."

so i originally thought it had something to do with using a VPN; initially i thought it was alleviated when i turned it off but i was wrong, problem soon reappeared. i've actually been using zen browser for a while, so maybe it was localised to that? i switch back to regular firefox and it was there too. troubleshooting mode didn't yield any difference either, so there's no conflict with extensions... clearing all bandcamp site data hasn't worked either, now because of this issue i just can't log back in lol. i ended up testing on a non-firefox browser, microsoft edge, and found that this issue isn't present there. so i'm kind of stumped on how to figure this out by myself now. keep in mind this is the only website that is affected by this issue

After clearing my cache, I got logged out of all of my accounts, and I can no longer sign into Google. When I enter my username it gives me a message that says “Couldn’t sign you in: this browser may not be secure. Try using a different browser.” I was able to log in using Chrome so it’s definitely not a device issue. I already tried clearing my cookies and cache again, and disabling all of my browser extensions, but I’m still getting the same message. Any help is appreciated!

Editing to add, I'm using Windows 11 and Firefox version 153.0

I saw a very confident by a 'support volunteer' that the interface contains controls to delete traces.

Show me in the in interface where these files can be deleted:

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0NB2KS6j.Profile 1\cache2\entries

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0NB2KS6j.Profile 1\safebrowsing

Some very bold claims that I don't see backed up by anything having to do with reality.

Hello Mozilla Support,

I once had a Firefox Sync account under the email [redacted] @outlook.com that I no longer can get into because of the loss of the MFA device and the recovery codes. I now use a different Firefox account under [redacted] @outlook.com. However, I did have a yearly subscription to Mozilla VPN tied to the old account that I need canceled ASAP. Are you all able to go in and cancel it for me?

Thank you, Collyn Mosquito

It seems I can no longer set a link to open in same tab. There is a Government webskite that won't let me open a link in a new tab and I can no longer find a way to stop a link being opened in a new tab

Check https://piunikaweb.com/2026/08/14/firefox-x-images-videos-not-loading/ for details, but basically xTwitter/Melon messed again with their latest update.

Any word from those in the know yet? Having to use different browsers to see multi-pic posts is really annoying.

Immediately after I downloaded the latest update 153.0.1 for Firefox on the Mac, I noticed an issue with the Clear Recent History request. Whenever I select Clear Recent History (under History in the top bar menu), the popup box that opens always shows it is "calculating" the data, even if I only visited one website and closed it (or left it open). If the Clear button is active, I will click it and the box closes, but I never know if the history was cleared.

However, many times, the Clear button is grayed out while the "calculating" is in progress, and it freezes up the popup box. I cannot close it or click on any other part of the screen. It appears to freeze (crash) Firefox. My only option then is to quit Firefox and reopen it. When I do, the popup box is gone. But I still have no confirmation that the history has been deleted. But after visiting one or more websites that I want cleared of history (news sites, etc) the issue reappears again as soon as I select Clear Recent History.

I have a whitelist of many sites that I allow to store cookies and site data. But for all other sites, I routinely clear my history when I am done viewing them. This issue has never happened before, so I'm wondering if it is a bug in the latest 153.0.1 update. Before I downloaded the latest Firefox update, I checked to make sure it was compatible with my current version of Ventura 13.7.8 on a MBP 2022. And the clear history issue never appeared when I was on Firefox 152.0.6.

Attached is a screenshot of what the Clear Recent History popup looks like when "calculating"...

Recently I had to install a new windows, and I signed in to my Firefox account and found all the data from the previous windows including the open tabs, I could find them from "Tabs from other devices".

But now can't find them any more, although that device name is still there in my account page, under " connected services", please advise.

Hi, I need help retrieving my Saved passwords, Bookmarks and History. I have recently changed my mobile phone and Laptop. I've logged in on both items. I can't find my password, its clean. I can only see the visited sites that were on my new mobile, but nothing from my old laptop even after login and Sync
