When on the home screen and with setting "3 rows" for shortcuts, the third row has two missing slots and I cannot add extra ones to fill in the gap. I don't want to make it "4 rows" as it will show an "add shortcuts" button which I feel is unnecessary if I plan to leave the 4th row empty. It is also happening on LibreWolf

The question has been edited after doing further testing on the issue.

During the last week or so I have encountered the issue that one or more of my Firefox profiles keep resetting after every update.

I noticed there's couple of threads with similar issues already but the generic profile restore instructions are not helping at all since it seems that Firefox is actually wiping some files. I'm not currently sure what causes the files to be wiped, but it's either related to rebooting the PC or starting / closing Firefox. The file deletion also doesn't always hit the same profile either.

I'm running Firefox 150.0.1 for Arch on CachyOS.

I did a clean reinstall of Firefox. After the install I created 2 new accounts in addition to the one that's pre-created on install. All of the profiles work as expected at this point.

The profiles seem to have files in three places

• $HOME/.cache/mozilla/firefox
• $HOME/.config/mozilla/firefox
• /run/user/1000/psd/

The issue seems to be that after a reboot the files under /run/user/1000/psd/ are missing. Both of the other locations seemingly are unchanged but under $HOME/.config/mozilla/firefox the linked files claim no target in /run/user/1000/psd/ is found.

When looking at the missing files, it seems that in total 6 folders have been wiped at the time of testing. All of the wiped directories were ending as ".Profile 1" or ".default-release". Directories ending with ".Profile 2" or ".default" were still there. At this point I'm not sure what is causing this but it seems to explain why the profile is inaccessible.

Manually restoring the files under /psd/ seems to fix the missing profiles completely.

While submitting online forms for opting out of data brokers getting the following error: Invalid Turnstile captcha response. Using Windows 10 and latest Firefox, tried putting Firefox in Troubleshooting Mode which runs without extensions and searched for online solutions, but no help.

I have been trying to get Firefox to clean up everything when I close it down,

It is so hard as if purposely a 1000 development team have worked on making it impossible.

When I close it down, it must be completely sanitised, no previous site visits, login names, passwords, suggestions - nothing.

And I should be able to achieve that with one button press, not have to go through a thousand individual settings.

I have now spent an hour checking and unchecking buttons, it is crazy. For example I go to the passwords, I have to delete each and every one individually. Maybe there is another screen somewhere, but when I want to interact with "Passwords" I naturally go to "Passwords".

And still, when I go to gmail, it autofills the gmail account! Where did that come from? I have spent an hour trying to make sure it deletes everything when it closes down.

And it should leave no trace on the PC. no temp files, nothing.

I Believe that the last update to firefox changed a lot of things in my PC. Passwords are not working. I am having to change them every other day because it says the one I used is in correct. Amazon has lost my info about orders. My contact number says it is in use with another account. email is not working like it has. My calendar has lost all my appointments that were on it. this is just a few that I have noticed.

This is my website I work on daily - I can normally open it in this browser BUT because Im on my laptop it is flagged as a security risk - and its not - https://passive-income-system.co.uk/

Since the latest update, when I click on a link to an image containing a JPG (JPEG) file, now Firefox opens a new tab but it's empty, and it automatically downloads the JPG file, saving it in Downloads. To see the image, I have to go to Downloads and choose to open the file. I hate this. How does software get dumber like this? Someone messed up. It's not just some sites, it's all the time, so Firefox changed.

Is there a quick fix for this in Settings? I've been looking to no avail.

On Linux Mint 22 on my desktop, the buttons in the RH top corner are tiny. I have measured the minimise line and it is under 2mm long.

I have tried various searches to see if these controls could be made larger, but most questions suggest changing the theme. I don't want to do that, and I'm sceptical that it would make any difference anyway.

Has anyone got any suggestions how they could be made bigger?

I'm using the MATE desktop.

Thank you

How can I log on to my Bank? Firefox download has invalidated username and password and says it will not store such data. The latter is OK but how can I proceed with bank?

Running Firefox 150.0.1 64 bit on win 10 Have down loaded Box, Thunderbird pro and dropbox but still flags non verification Have disabled antivirus etc and set xpinstall signatures to false but no change.

Firefox no longer allows me to delay updates. Twice in 2 weeks, all of my cookies were blown away during the Firefox installations of 150.0.0 and 150.0.1. I have 8 Google Email Accounts - all forgotten and no longer accessible. The same is true for Yahoo finance; banks; and the myriad of other sites I use daily. I checked this morning, and all sites visited before 150.0.1 was installed (against my will), have zero cookies. Only sites visited after the installation of 150.0.1 have cookies. This is a tiny subset of cookies I rely on for daily use.

This makes Firefox useless. I can't spend hours trying to recover from untested software every two weeks. Until this is fixed, I have to switch to Chrome or Edge.

I'm running Windows 11 Pro..

Every time go to Firefox home page (clear browser settings), I get "Account Disconnected" message.

I have another PC with the same Firefox browser homepage and do not have the problem.

Help or suggestions appreciated. TU for reading.

When I try to access the Newsmax website, I get a black screen with the message which says,

   The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.

I am somehow getting the new letter rendering on Windows 10, most letters are very pale, 't' is bold , tabs pale , looks horrible. I didn't change anything. So, annoying, difficult to read. Please help.

Since latest update when trying to view pages with artwork on them I get a message that the page is slowing down Firefox and asks me if I want to stop the page to speed up the browser. I do not want to stop the page so I click the X, but Firefox refuses to load the pages at all anyway! I can no longer view many sites due to this issue. Please get rid of this awful code! Thanks.

Please give nore details on how chatbots in the sidebar work. Work with free versions? Same limits as chatbot plans. For example. Explain in human-understandable tech language how this works.

I am sometimes able to open E-Bay, and open individual members of a folder containing over 100 members searches. When opening all the members of this folder, either most of the members will open the E-Bay page with the rest giving the msg below, or all the members of the folder will open, but when pressing the link this msg occurs: Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?" on this server.
