I was set up, in myuserchrome.css, to hide my pinned tabs on the tab bar, allowing them to still be available in the "List all tabs" menu, see first image

.tabbrowser-tab[pinned="true"] { display: none !important;}

All of a sudden, it reverted back

That first image, with the hidden tabs, is actually from Librewolf, with has the identical setting.

'bold text' YOUR STUPID BOX TO UPDATE FIREFOX WON'T GO AWAY AND BLOCKS MY PAGE ON UPPER RIGHT HAND CORNER...HOW DO YOU TURN OFF NOTIFICATIONS "HITTING DISMISS ONLY MAKES IT KEEP COMING BACK WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO WORK"???

You know how you can type a URL and then Ctr+Enter and FF autopopulates the .com? Well years ago "Shift+Enter" autopopulated ".net" and "Ctrl+Shift+Enter" autopopulated ".org".

I really liked that feature. I know a lot of people don't, or don't see its point; that's not important.

About three years ago, I added UserChrome.js and enable-UserChrome.js , which acomplished the two autopuopulating tasks quite nicely.

Until about four weeks ago. I don't know if an FF update stopped reading those two .js files, or if there's a conflict somewhere else, or what. I don't know where to begin - other than posting here for help.

Thanks in advance!

• UserChrome.js is in the subdirectory: C:\Users\[ME]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\gaydtewj.default-release-1
• enable-UserChrome.js is in C:\Program Files\Internet Shenanigans\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref (firefox.exe is in C:\Program Files\Internet Shenanigans\Mozilla Firefox )

Since yesterday (Sep 26 2023), Twitch.tv has been having multiple issues related to basic functionality of the website, and this has happened before but I did not report it because I was able to fix it. I can not purchase or use bits despite Twitch having a stored payment method on file that I have confirmed has sufficient funds, I can not subscribe or gift subscriptions despite Twitch having that same sufficiently funded payment method on file, I can not redeem or earn channel points, I can not send or receive Twitch Whispers (a form of DM), I can not follow or unfollow channels, and I am convinced that if I was to log out, I would not be able to log back in. I can chat in stream chat, and I can watch streams, that's all I can do. But I enjoy using the other features that are currently blocked, I am over 18, and I am the only person that uses this computer, so there should be no parental controls problems either. Yesterday, I restarted my browser, which did NOT alert me that it had updated, and all of this functionality was broken. Roughly 6 months ago I was having the exact same issues, but I was able to fix it by disabling many of the anti-tracking protections on my browser (had to disable them universally except for blocking cryptominers, not just with the shield icon). However, now, even with those settings unchanged, roughly 75% of the features of the website Twitch.tv are nonfunctional. I have included a cropped screenshot of me attempting to redeem something using channel points, the purple box is the button, and the spinner icon stays there for over a minute with nothing happening, which is not how that is supposed to work.

I enjoy watching streams and interacting with people on Twitch.tv, and I wish to continue doing so in the way I am accustomed to. However, it would appear that Firefox has other plans. If this continues, I will be forced to switch to a less secure browser for specifically that site, which is an idea I do not look forward to.

Every time Firefox updates, a Firefox shortcut is added to my desktop. In delete it because I already have a shortcut for it in the taskbar. How can I stop this from happening? I have tried turning off automatic updates and manually updating the browser and it still creates a shortcut. It's been happening for over a year and I am close to uninstalling Firefox completely and switching browsers.

I have screenshots of the error I receive when logged into the website. The support staff from LawofSelfDefense.com says everything on their side says I should be receiving audio and video. I have checked DuckDuckGo privacy settings and they indicate that their product is not blocking anything from the website.

I used MS Edge this morning to stream a live episode and it works! I do not want to access these streams using any MS products/software. Something in Firefox is preventing me from Live video and Chat activity on the site. What can I send you to help me fix this problem?

System:

Windows 10 pro 22h2 19045.3516

Intel i5-10200h with UHD 620

Driver 31.0.101.2125

Firefox ESR 115.3.0

When watching streams in firefox, I noticed that overall iGPU load is very high, up to 70%, a lot higher than watching 1080p movie with dedicated player.

I found that the firefox actually only shares 10~20 iGPU load, the rest are from DWM, which load is up to 40% sometimes.

Also found if I switch from the tab with streaming page to another normal webpage, DWM immediately drops its usage to about 2%, firefox still uses some load as it's still decoding. DWM usage rises if I switch back.

I tried force firefox to use nvidia dGPU, firefox does use nvidia card to decode, but the DWM problem said above still apply.

See attatched image as prove.

After a crash and new Firefox update today (September 28, 2023), Firefox is now opening a new window along with every new tab. If I close the newly opened window, the tab on the browser 'main' firefox window also closes. The 'open links instead of new windows' is ticked. I have tried refreshing Firefox and also uninstalling and reinstalling. Running on Windows 10. Please help! Thanks, Robin

I have been using the Walgreens web site to manage my many prescriptions without problems. Now, most of the Walgreens web site still works but the two menu options that need to display my personal prescription details fail with the display "Sorry, an unexpected error occurred. Please try again later." I initially thought that a Walgreens update might be in progress so just waited. Walgreens support gave me the same answer that there was probably web site maintenance in progress. After 4 days of the same problem and answer, I ported enough information to login in to Walgreens with the Microsoft Edge browser and access to my prescription information worked without a problem. I believe this problem with Firefox started around the time I updated to 117.0.1 but I might not have this perfectly correct. I was just notified to update to 118.0 and did so. Firefox access still fails and Edge access still works. Thanks for any help you can provide. Windows 10

On my work laptop, I disabled "Recommended by Pocket" to avoid distractions.

On my personal laptop, that setting is already enabled. But I never see any stories recommended by pocket when I open a new tab. What can I do about this?

I am unable to type in numbers in the Vanguard Portfolio Tester boxes. This is a recent issue because previously I had no problem with that function. I can do it using Google Chrome but not using Firefox. Is this a Vanguard issue or Firefox issue?

My Firefox has got inconsistently large font size in some UI, namely on the homepage (text elements with style "font: caption") and texts in the Update Firefox notice box (which I don't know how to reproduce within a resonable time and effort). It just happened after a ordinary restart of Firefox: no updates etc. I tried updating Firefox after that but to no avail. How can I fix it?

Hi,

I need Proxy settings to use some of the company's applications. Until yesterday, I was able to set them and change them at will. Today, the browser disabled this ability, so I can't use some applications. The fields are grayed out and I can't change them (screen attached). What could be the problem and how to change it as soon as possible? I am not familiar with technical issues, so please give me very simple answers that I will understand and take as little time as possible.

So for the last little while, Facebook has been making a complete nuisance of itself on firefox. This isn't a browser problem, because the other tabs I have open work perfectly fine, but FB takes forever to load, and any button I press to interact with it, (like the reload button,) also lags, (but, again, works fine on other tabs,). It doesn't even register links as being clickable for a good minute after loading. The page also seems to reset every time I switch from another tab to it, showing a blank page with a loading symbol. I have tried deleting the entire history, and restarting the browser, and deactivating the adblocker, (the only extension active) and nothing seems to help. Does anybody know why it's doing this, (other than because the company follows the 'if it isn't broke, break it' theory, which we all already knew,) and how to fix it?

When searching queries, this error will come up; however, when searching full length URLs it works and sends me directly to the website. I've looked through the Q/As and they all recommend clearing cache/cookies and messing with the history settings to resolve the problem. However, after doing all that and messing with other settings I cannot seem to understand why this started to happen.

When in private browsing mode it works fine and I can ask whatever and I receive all the possible websites to click on. It's just on normal browsing that I receive the error message. Am I going to need to just uninstall Firefox and reinstall to fix this? Or maybe there's something else I can try out. Thanks!

Error in Question: The page isn’t redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

Can I get an explanation for what this does

Is it supposed to do something different than the windows taskbar mouse thumbnail

I saw no difference when enabled.

I'm having a lot of frustration trying to edit the shortcuts in the New Tab page in any kind of smooth and easy manner. While I recognize that having sync turned on means that Firefox destroyed my pinned shortcuts on this PC when I logged into Firefox on the new PC I am setting up, it's incredibly inconvenient, and the lack of options in regards to editing makes replacing all of it really, really awful. I have no ability to see the history of my shortcuts, nor can I save configured shortcuts and restore them should an improper sync destroy my previous settings. If I want an empty tile, I have to go through and repeatedly dismiss everything from my history to stop more of my visited websites from replacing said tile. Is there something obvious I'm missing here? If not, is there any kind of way that more customization options for New Tab shortcuts might be suggested?
