For my work, i have to download a lot of files. Some of them I then have to subsequently save and upload later on. Previously, I was able to download all the files to one folder, and then, if I would have actual need of them, I could just do CTRL + S, give them a name and save them to a different folder. When pressing CTRL + S it would always remember which folder I had saved it in last, but now it automatically keeps going back to the 'saves files to' folder.

This will end up costing me at least an hour a day more because now every time I have to manually switch folders I want to rename and save a file. PLEASE let this go back to the way it was.

I can type in the address bar, but the search box is just showing a magnifying glass and can't be clicked on. None of the tools at the right hand side of the address bar are present, so no star for bookmarks etc... If I type an address in the address bar and hit return/enter, nothing happens at all.

My bookmarks bar is completely blank. (I can still access bookmarks via the hamburger menu though)

Everything was fine yesterday, any ideas please?

Not sure if anyone else has realized this but Akamai / Edgesuite is using its algorithms to force people to stop using fire fox The reason that I see this is that I run a server with almost 100 web sites on it and Firefox has dropped from being quite significant a couple of years back. This is from one site of the almost 100 but is quite typical.

Google Chrome No 1,568 62.9 % 1,867 56.6 % Safari No 589 23.6 % 816 24.7 % Firefox No 191 7.6 % 427 12.9 %

There are a number of requests opened about this but the only solution seems to be to switch to chrome. A massive number of major store sites are now using akamai / edgesuite and almost no-one using firefox can visit their stores now because of an error produced and there does not appear a simple solution for a person to even reach them. Some of the stores are Lowes, Tractor Supply, CVS, and others.

Recently I cannot use Paypal to process any online payment on Firefox without the browser crashing.

OS: Windows 11 25H2 Reproduction steps: a vendor would have a Paypal button. I would click on it and Firefox would open a pop-up window briefly before crashing.

The pop-up window is normal behaviour for how Paypal processing has worked on Firefox in the past. I have tried turning off potential content blockers: 3rd-party userscripts loading through ViolentMonkey, content blockers via AdNaseaum, and Enhanced Tracking Protection to no effect.

Hi. I have noticed over the last few weeks, so maybe related to the 155.

If I am on a website with links the browser doesn't respond to many links, in fact no links most of the time.

This only happens usually after the first link has worked. There is no data in the status bar for the link.

If I close the link I have opened, always in a new tab, then other links will then work.

It is as it the details of the URL path are not being recognised, almost like something is saying : Hey you are already looking at this site don't be greedy and expect me to open multiple page with the same domain.

I did see a similar query a while ago but can't find it.

So not a critical problem.

Oh yes. When this happens I also cannot right-click to open in a new tab as an alternative.

Thanks

Hope everyone is having at least a half decent day. :)

I open a window on chatgpt.com. I clic on "connexion" to connect me. on the new page, I clic in the field used to connect with a mail address. there is the dashlane icon in it. normally, a subwindow opens, showing the differents identifiants I can use, I clic on the one I choose, but now, this subwindow appears AND disapears immediately, it is not possible to clic on it, it is so fast it is not possible to read in it. this is very new, a few days only. I gave the latests versions of dashlane (6.2637) and firefox (155.0.1). the last version od dashlane was installed the 3 od september, and it has well worked after. Nota : I have also a smaller problem with webmail (of free), the identifiant field is well done, but not the password field.

I signed into my Firefox on a new computer, but for some reason my widgets are gone. I have checked my settings, and the box "Allow Firefox to improve features, performance, and stability between updates" is checked off. My old computer still has the widgets, so it's not like I turned it off. Any ideas?
