Favicons seem to be a problem for Firefox, at least on Linux Operating Systems. On multiple distros favicons simply don't show, while they may on Windows. Not trying to dig, but shouldn't this be a pretty basic feature that's expected for a browser no matter what OS is used? Even searching at the forums here for favicons reveals 222 potential threads - one would think that the sheer volume of reports issued for them not functioning correctly would prompt a unified remediation effort. Don't get me wrong, I love Firefox - have used it for decades now across a multitude of OS's - and favicons always used to display properly. Googling this issue will reveal several recommendations of 3rd party addons and tweaks. Can we make favicons just work (again?)

I've created a discussion on Github, additionally at least Dark Reader seems affected as well (only uBlock Origin, Dark Reader & Singlefile are installed -- all Mozilla-verified addons).

At the time I can't uninstall the said non-functional addons.

How do I disable third-party cookies in Firefox? I'm looking to enhance my privacy and prevent tracking by third-party websites. Can someone guide me through the steps to block third-party cookies in Firefox on my desktop? Any advice on managing cookie settings effectively would be appreciated. For this site: Uses in Urdu

Hy, after the last update the emails I marked them with tags are no more in colors (title, sender etc...). I have no addons in my Thunderbird. I have tried suggested solutions I have read (restard in safe mode, clear cache, disable addons etc...).

Thank you for your help!!

Been following the steps on this page -- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new -- but I don't get the toolbar selection.

I don't get the right menu list shown there. See the attachment which shows what I get when I right click on "Unified toolbar."

Am I using a different version 128.2.0esr?

With my previous FF installation, it would remember both the width and the last selection in the sidebar after closing and re-opening FF.

I just formatted and reinstalled windows and now FF simply would not remember the last sidebar condition.

I'm using Windows 10 22H2 and FF 130 64-bit.

In the Thunderbird calendar, I'm trying to create a repeating event that occurs on the fourth Wednesday from Sep 25, 2024 through Jan 22, 2025.

But each time I try to set it up, using Jan 22 as the end date, Thunderbird changes the end date to Jan 21 and so the last event does not get created. I've tried several times and this keeps happening.

What's going on?

Ed - Thanks for that thread. Since I posted my question originally (and can't find where just now) I did try one add-on called STOP AUTO RELOAD by kgersen and I'm trying that. I couldn't understand how to add the particular address I wanted to use it on, but it's helping on FB without having entered FB's addy. Most of the time it stops the refresh. If I leave it too long tho, when I come back it does refresh, but at least it isn't refreshing while I'm trying to read it. The annoying blue label "refresh" still comes on my page, but I ignore it.

Until recently, when I went to a site that I had saved login/pass, the fields would just autopopulate and i hit Login and it worked great. But recently instead of doing that a little "saved logins" popup comes up on the bottom of the screen and i have to click just right on it to get it to populate the fields. the popup will come up if you click on the password field, but then it only populates the password. so it's very persnickity and unintuitive and above all *slow*.

Is there a way to get it back to the much more convenient behavior? i literally switched from chrome to firefox because chrome started doing the same thing. i'm not ever going to have, for example, more than one login to my thermostat, and i don't want to have to struggle.

I run Thunderbird on a PC, and, to free up space on Drive C:, I have moved the contents of the folder Thunderbird in Appdata to Drive D:. I then changed my Server Settings, in Thunderbird, from C: to D:, and note that any new mail is indeed now appearing there along with those already transferred. This move could save me a valuable 6 gig of space, and more in the future, however, I am unable to remove that original Thunderbird folder entirely, notably I am unable to remove the contents of the Profiles folder, as it is still linked to the application. Notably with cookies.sqlite, cookies.sqlite-shm, store.json, mozlz4, aborted-session-ping and many others, which I note some have continued to be updated. I have been unable to find any other settings in Thunderbird referring to Drive C:, other than those in Server Settings.

I could presume that if I installed another version of Thunderbird on Drive D: and maybe moved those existing contents of the Thunderbird folder on C: onto Drive D:, and made those numerous settings changes to the App it could work. But I ask is there an easier way to complete this move? How can I complete this transition of Thunderbird from Drive C: to Drive D:?

I receive a daily email from the Toronto Star with brief summaries of current news stories. The summaries include a link that opens the complete article in Firefox (or other browsers).

When I open the full article in Firefox, the article stops at an advertisement (which does not display). The ad includes the wording "Story continues below", but it does not; instead it goes to the end of the article.

When I open the same article in Chrome, the article opens properly.

I am attaching screen shots of the two browsers. I tried manually collecting the Data as well, but it extends to 80 p. I can save it in Word, then convert to a PDF file in Adobe Acrobat, but I cannot convert the file to a .JPEG and attach it. I am happy to send a copy of the Word file; just ask

Hello, Firefox lagged out and next thing I know - the scroll wheel doesn't scroll the page and instead goes back/forward a page. When I tried to look for a solution I discovered that other keys don't act as usual too, for example 'f' opens the 'file' tab on top, 'e' opens edit etc., but none of them type. Tried looking in the settings, but didn't find anything that could help. Thanks in advance!

I cannot seem to find what it is called, but only web design related stuff to scrolling.

I'm looking to change the behavior of scrolling bar, that lets me click a point and the page stops at that point, whereas right now, it keeps scrolling to the end/top of the page (based on the direction relative to the starting point). I find the behavior pretty annoying and something that used to be done by the buttons on either end point.

Is this a relic of the past or can i opt-in to it through the config

When I'm using Firefox Multi-Account Containers with the option "Limit to designated sites" enabled, I encounter an annoying issue when navigating between different subdomains of the same website.

For example, if you navigate from "https://www.google.com" to "https://accounts.google.com," you will exit the "Google" container until that subdomain is manually added to the container.

I thought it would be nice if I could somehow create a container for "https://*.google.com/" (where * acts as a wildcard, as explained in the note below).

• Is it possible to do this? If so, how, and what is the safest way? (See note below)
• If not, is there any viable solution to this problem?

Note: The RegEx (or wildcard) * should only allow alphanumeric variations to prevent security vulnerabilities. For instance, "https://www.PhishingSite.com/WeStealYourAccount.google.com" could bypass the container if * is not restricted properly. In this case, * could mistakenly refer to "www.PhishingSite.com/WeStealYourAccount"

Thank you for your help

Hello,

I've been looking for a way to disable the column resizing when resizing the window. I would much prefer the Message Pane to resize instead of the Message List.

Current situation:

- Set to Vertical Layout: Message List is on the left of the Message Pane.
- Resize TB's window: the last column of the Message List grows to compensate the extra space and all columns shrink if window size is reduced beyond a certain threshold.

Preferred situation:

- Resizing the TB's window changes the Message Pane size and does not affect the Message List columns.

I am constantly constantly adjusting column sizes to compensate when I connect to an external screen or when maximizing TB. I can't find a preference to change this behavior. Fixing the Message List columns sizes and adjusting the Message Pane size would be much better and more natural. If I compare to browsers, toolbars and sidebars are always fixed size while the webpage adjusts to the new window size, especially when changing screens. The same should be possible in TB.

Starting with version 126.0.0, firefox for MacOS stopped creating a defaults/pref folder during installation. If you create it yourself and add the autoconfig.js there, and add firefox.cfg to the root, firefox reads them perfectly and applies the settings. However, if you create folders before the first launch of the browser after installation, the file integrity check fails (see screenshot).

I couldn't find any information about why the folders stopped being created. Maybe someone knows?

The newest article regarding the configuration seems to be this one:
