Hey there! System: Windows 10 x64, Firefox Nightly.

Problem: Out of the blue, when I start Firefox Nightly (I think 2-3 days ago), it just crashed with no extra info. I see the "window of the update process", it goes to the middle or to the end, immediately closes and doesn't bring up the Crash reporter. However! When I tried to run a Nightly Installer that I downloaded through Chrome, it quietly runs and then just opens up my browser no problem, profile and all. I checked and it seems to be the exact same .exe file (according to the Task Manager).

So in short: it breaks if I run it straight from my usual shortcut, or with .exe. But if I run the installer myself, the browser opens up fine.

However, the installer didn't bring any new updates that would fix the problem, I have this for 2-3 days now, I don't remember. I start working, I see I didn't fix it and run the installer again.

Any ideas on the fix? I would love to not lose my profile, settings and, if possible, tabs. I'll try disabling all the extensions after I post this, I don't think they contribute, though (seeing how the external Firefox Nightly Installer opens up my browser just fine).

Thanks in advance!

This feature has suddenly appeared and I absolutely detest it! I don't need it, don't like it, don't want it! I have searched everywhere on how to disable it. PLEASE tell me there is an option to do that.

I use Firefox on Ubuntu Linux, and it works fine.

For unrelated reasons I have created a new Linux Mint 22 boot partition, and I would like to use the same Firefox profile on both Linux OS-s, without having to move or copy the existing profile I use on Ubuntu. (The profile is placed on a third independent data partition!) I cannot find any information on how to do it. All information I find involves moving the profile, but then Firefox on Ubuntu would not be able to continue to use it.

I look forward to hear from you. Thank you. :-)

Since several days I have problems in using my mail-account at web.de The website starts and I can log in. But then my mails don't open up like they should. I called web.de and they said I shoud use another browser. And really when I use Microsoft Edge it is much better. I would like to use Firefox on my desktop further on. Could you give me a hint?

Anytime I click a link in Firefox...whether it is in a search result OR in my email OR on a website...two duplicated tabs open every time. I noticed this was an issue a few years ago but it appears to have returned after the latest Firefox update last week. Has anyone else had this issue? Thank you, Brian

I have been using the Bank of America website for many years. I have not made any changes to the settings! With the recent update of Firefox Bill Payment on the websited stopped working and I get:

Why can't I access Bill Pay?

Since this used to work until the last update, I think that the bug is with Firefox. Also, it works on Edge

Since the update last week I've had trouble loading pictures or even connecting to some websites. I cleared the cache but still have problems, especially with Facebook, but many others also.

Hi,

I set Firefox as default browser on the OS, and I'm running two instances of Firefox on OSX, one is on a sockv5 tunnel for work and one is not proxied, for private browsing.

When clicking on links on other applications, say office, I don't get to decide which instance the link opens on. The instance links open on is randomly set after booting my computer and each time I boot it seems getting randomly set.

Is there a way to configure the default instance that links should be opened on?

So is there any updated answer for the current version of Firefox? Else I will have to downgrade and disable updates for the future. This new version is making it impossible to drag the browser around when it's below a certain width, because it covers the tabs area 100% now. I really need the feature to drag my browser around without maximizing it every time.

Having spent a frustrating weelend being unable to log into Coventry Building Society's online banking app, I 'phoned the this morning to be told they consider Firefox insecure and no longer support its use. The app accepts my username & password, tells me they are going to 'phone me with an access code and then displays "Page not found". Anyone know of any other bank or similar who would believe Firefox to be insecure?

Since 128.0 was installed outlook.office.com/mail has stopped working. (Windows 11)

My mail account has numerous shared groups. However these now fail to load with a messgae "Cannot load folders for "xxxxxxxxx" Decoding failed.

Additionally, while I can see new mails in the list (under focused and Other), the previews are all blank.

I do not get this error in Edge or Chrome in Windows.

Running 132B3 the speaker icon besides the favicon to indicate playback in the tab is missing ever since updating to 132 first (see attached image). On 131 it was a speaker icon which you could use to mute/unmute tabs which showed up when audio or video was playing.

Compact density, title bar and menu bar is enabled along with Simple white by Moomin-theme and an added userChrome.css which can be seen here: https://pastebin.com/cLt2bSnR Along with a few changed preferences in about:config but those probably won't matter in this case?

Guess it's missing additional stuff in userChrome.css to get it working as before again? Or were the icons pulled from Firefox itself so the problem is accessing/referencing to them in the first place, hence why it's an empty circle now?

On Reddit a hover override from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1338919 was suggested but adding that didn't change the icons' behaviour unfortunately. Hovering over with the mouse cursor manually just fills out the circle with black.

Any help in the matter is appreciated, best regards!

How do I get the + sign back on my tabs? After latest update I can only close tabs instead of opening new tab, and I am talking about after opening several tabs. When I have seven tab open, I have to do ctrl+t to open new tab instead of just clicking on the + sign that use to be at end of tabs. Yes, I do use custom settings. This happened before but I was able to fix by going to tabs under about:config, but it seems the setting is no longer there.
