Hello! I really liked the vertical tab panel management before, if I wanted it to disappear I've pressed ctrl + alt + z and if I wanted it to show only icons of the websites - I could press ctrl + alt + x twice and had the mini version of it. For some reason, now it's gone, when I press ctrl + alt + x twice the panel is gone completely. Could you help out here? Essentially, I want to be able to make it look like that (screenshot attached), only without the AI Assistant.

"Save Image As" button does not work and Cannot reset Download directory in Settings

Using the Firefox 151.0 Mozilla Firefox for Fedora. Updated as of 23 May 2026, I use just a generic FireFox. I don't customize it, I just use it as it comes from the Fedora distribution.

I cannot save images (right click menu "Save Image As"). Nothing happens when that is selected. This worked a couple weeks ago.

Downloads are supposed to go to ~/Downloads. Checking the setting for this, Go to the three-line menu > Settings > General > Files and Applications, under Downloads, the "Save files to" value is set to Downloads, but the Browse button does not work to reset it. Nothing happens when I poke on the button. I can select the text in the box, but I can't change it.

I found the help page for "What to do if you can't download or save files https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-download-or-save-files and went thru every one of the steps there. None of them make any difference.

Strangely enough, there isn't even a "Downloads button" in the top toolbar. If I right click on the top toolbar and select "Customize Toolbar" it shows a downloads icon as already being in the toolbar, but when I click Done, it goes away.

I have Firefox set to "ask me every time" what to do with doc and docx files. When I click on one, I get the popup shown in the image. As it shows, for some reason, okular (a pdf viewer) is shown as the pre-selected "open with" option. The dropdown menu also includes LibreOffice Writer, and says (correctly) that this is the default program.

I cannot find any setting on my system where Okular has been associated with doc files. So I think this is a Firefox problem.

How do I remove Okular from this dropdown, or at least make LibreOffice Writer the default pre-selected option?

At some point I decided to use default tab wallpapers by Mozilla. With an update of home menu 151.0 , there is a new logo in the center "Firefox". You can see it on (screenshot 1). It covers any background picture, in my case a tail of the fox. I can't figure out how to hide this logo. I have one icon on my taskbar already; having it in the layout is just a redundancy. Obviously i know that i use Firefox there is no need to remind me that

A little extra note: The layout reflow of the logo works bad when the window is resized. It's not centralized.(screenshot 2).

The only band-aid that i see is in Settings >> New tabs >> Blank Page. It turns of wallpapers and whole layout of homepage which is not my target (screenshot 3).

I use Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS , snap Firefox 151.0.1

I have MozillaFirefox-140.4.0-150200.152.207.1 on OpenSuse Leap 15.6. In my "Settings" under General and Startup I have always had the option "Open previous windows and tabs" checked.

This just started happening recently. After the first time it happened, I restored everything by searching through "History" and recreating the tabs and windows. Everything seemed OK for a few days then it happened again.

When I try to use multiple desktops to arrange the opened windows, the window of Firefox is present in all of them, even the last one, which is usually totally empty (and when we drag a new window in it, a new empty desktop is created).

You can find attached screenshots of my three desktops, where Firefox appears (I blurred all info that could be sensitive, I hope I did not miss any !).

Is there a setting to unset this ?

NB: this is a duplicate of a post I made on askUbuntu, but it seems that this issue is more Firefox related than Ubuntu... And I did not manage to fix it with the answer provided there, so I'm trying my luck here !

NB2: oops, i just noticed that I inserted this question in the wrong topic (android), it seems that I cannot change that... I anyone see how to do it let me know !

I have used the new and old profile system, and I use Firefox Nightly. On one of my profiles I am unable to delete profiles created with the new profile system.

When I use Manage profiles and click the delete icon I get about:deleteprofile but clicking the Delete button nothing happens. The display doesn't change, no message appears in the browser console, and the profile doesn't get deleted.

This is running Firefox Nightly 153.0a1. When I use Firefox 151 on the same system (different profile) the delete works fine. When I use the same version of Firefox Nightly on a different system about:deleteprofile works fine.

Both computers are running Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS. The new profiles don't show up in about:profiles. I now have several profiles I can't delete following the instructions from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-management#w_delete-a-profile . Most of them I created, closed the window, and immediately tried to delete.

Following the instructions from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1572980 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2000125#c4 I looked at the toolkit.profiles.storeID preference. The preference is the same in the child profiles as in the original profile.

I tried starting the original profile in Troubleshoot Mode. That had no effect on the behavior.

Illustration of a fox looking at an orange warning sign. Be careful. Something doesn’t look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with hrms.devrising.in. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails. Advanced What makes the site look dangerous?

The site is set up to allow only secure connections, but there’s a problem with the site’s certificate. It’s possible that a bad actor is trying to impersonate the site. Sites use certificates issued by a certificate authority to prove they’re really who they say they are. Firefox doesn’t trust this site because its certificate isn’t valid for hrms.devrising.in. The certificate is only valid for: isp.afd2.jiohs.net, signup.jiohs.net, frontend.afd2.jiohs.net, www.frontend.afd2.jiohs.net, acc.afd2.jiohs.net, blk.jiohs.net.

Sites are now crashing because Firefox has "run out of disk space"

My most full drive is only 72% full and there are multiple other drives I could switch to with terabytes of spare storage. I also have plenty of indexes free, these are only 2% used.

But how? The solution page only offers advice for clearing cookies and data. I don't want to do that.

I have tried increasing dom.storage.default_cache and dom.storage.(I can't remember the exact syntax, but it was the site specific default cache), and I then tried killing and restarting chrome, but the issue persists and it means I can't run WhatsApp in my browser anymore, currently the only Linux WhatsApp solution.

It also affects multiple sites which struggle to load the css correctly, or crash altogether (the firefox help page and deepl.com)
