Firefox Community Forum

Downloaded Fire Fox on this new Windows 11 Laptop. Cannot get it to completely clear history, either from tool bar, also have done from Settings, Security to delete all history and cookies when closing. Then from History highlighted and deleted all from there. What is going on? Great that the old data from PC with all add-ons and bookmarks were transferred. I do not know how I did that.

Since April 5th I have lost spell check in the message pane of the emails I type on outlook.live.com It still works in the subject line, but not the message area.

Windows 10 pro 22H2 updated to end of March, when spell check was still working well. Firefox 137.1 English Canada Language selected (has worked well for years)

I go to outlook.live.com to read and answer my @hotmail.com emails.

When right clicking on a misspelled word in the message area I get only these options, Firefox does not give me the usual options.

I am currently having other problems on that site, clearing outlook.live.com cookies does not clear the problems.

Version, 142.0.1 (64-bit). I have both refreshed and uninstalled/reinstalled, the latter three times with full deletion of every folder and file related to Firefox that I can locate, on the computer, in both of the active profiles of the computer (i.e. my non-admin laptop user, and the laptop's Admin account). While I do change some of the Settings when I reinstall, I haven't touched the first part of the Privacy & Security settings; it's left at Standard Enhanced Tracking Protection. In those same settings, neither have I checked the box under Cookies & Site Settings that would make the browser delete cookies every time it's closed.

I don't use the Firefox password manager, so that is unchecked. Also, I uncheck the autofill options (address, etc.).

I think I've narrowed down the problem to one of two things. I use the Bitwarden browser extension. Also, after I reinstall Firefox, I import the back-up .json file of my bookmarks, which was last saved a month ago -- long before I had this issue. Would either of these actions be interfering with Firefox saving cookies?

The only other thing to add: the laptop computer had a system board failure about a month ago, and the board was replaced by the manufacturer. (The .json bookmarks backup I'm importing was made before the computer was sent for repair.)

Also I've carefully followed the steps in the support articles related to refreshing/uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, so no point referring me to those. :-)

Hi, I would like to know how I can increase the number of Google search results shown per page to 100 in Firefox. Is there any setting or extension that can help with this?"

Hi,

I have 3 devices with the same Firefox account : a phone, a work pc and a personal pc. I don't have bookmarks sync on any of my devices. From my phone I can access (read only) my bookmarks from both my pc. It seems I can't do the same from a pc to another. Am I missing something or is the feature not implemented?

Thanks

Apparently I set up a Passkey when I log into my credit card account. I just want to delete that and rely only on the standard Username and Password method I've never had a problem with. I thought that could be done through the credit card account but they tell me thats something controlled by the browser. So....how do I just delete this Passkey from Firefox ?

A screen shot is attached showing the Passkey button.

So basically, video on Youtube plays fine, as long as its focused. When I focus to another window on my other monitor the video drop FPS to like 15 FPS range, which is turbo annoying. Any idea how to fix this crap?

Facebook audio is delayed in videos. Video is muted, then when unmuted the video does not start right away. Then the sound is seconds off. Tried lots of setting changes with no success.

Tried MS Edge and had no issues. This is the second computer that I have had this issue and I had to start using another browser as I could not resolve the issue. But I prefer Firefox. I have a new Apple Mac Mini and my old Mac Mini does not have this issue.

Thanks!

I switched from chrome to firefox, chrome has a function for extensions to work in the "background", but here I can't find this function, without it I can't switch songs with binds when something else is open

"I'm experiencing an issue where Firefox shows a 'Trouble finding site' error every time I visit a new website. However, when I refresh the page, the site loads correctly. This issue persists across multiple websites and requires a refresh every time I navigate to a new page. Has anyone else encountered this problem? I'd appreciate any help in resolving this issue."

below example shows: visited site -> error -> refreshed -> now works

Здравствуйте, при скачивании плагина с интернета, скачивание происходит, полоска загрузки заполняется на 100%, но сам файл не скачивается, как будто зависает на этапе проверки. Ждал очень долго, так и не скачался

I want to hide the "Search with Google" option from the right-hand menu in Firefox. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me if there's a way to do this. I previously came across an article on how to hide Firefox using userchrome.css, but I can't find it anywhere. I don't use "Search with Google," so I want to hide it.

Can you help?

Thank you

Bonjour, Souhaitant consulter une version antérieure d'un site web, je me rends sur Wayback Machine et depuis, j'ai des alertes sécurité de logiciels malveillants présents dans le système Firefox (navigateur). Pouvez-vous m'aider je vous prie et vérifier ? Merci :) Réjane.

I always use Full Screen mode on MacOS (^⌘F). However, when I press the escape key, it always leaves Full Screen mode. This is annoying when browsing: whenever there is a popup which you should be able to leave with pressing 'Esc', the browser goes out of Full Screen. Why does 'Esc' lead to leaving Full Screen, when there is a dedicated key command to do this (^⌘F)? At least there should be a option to change this behaviour.
