My previous question: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1254024
With the latest update, the following css tweak to disable the creation of new tab when middle clicking the empty tab bar area no longer works.
This along with the shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+P to open a new private window are features no other browsers have.

Firefox auto update locked up my Win 7 computer while updating from 70.1 to 71.0 and I had to hard restart. When back into Windows, Firefox was broken. I had to reinstall Firefox to get it running and all bookmarks and saved logins were totally lost. I tried restoring them from backups but no success. I was able to move bookmarks over from another computer, but I am having no success finding the key3.db and logins.jsons files on the computer with working bookmarks and saved passwords. The computer I am trying to move the saved logins from is Windows 10, or as I call it, bloated utter crap. I need help moving those files over to the computer that had the Firefox problem, which is Windows 7. The computer that I am posting this from is the Windows 10 one that I haven't had the problem with.

I need to share some information between 2 tabs of the same browser pointing at the same site. I'm using the BroadcastChannel.onmessage event handler as detailed here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/BroadcastChannel/onmessage
In the sender tab javascript code I defined:
var bc = new BroadcastChannel('my_bc_channel');
bc.postMessage(i); //where i is simply the line number i want to share
And in the receiving tab:
var bc = new BroadcastChannel('my_bc_channel');
//then use this to receive the incoming messages:
bc.onmessage = function (ev) {
last_line = ev.data
}
My code works fine in Chrome, but it does not do anything in Firefox (latest version 70 freshly installed under windows). The compatibility chart in the link I gave above says it should be working from Firefox version 38.
The thing is, I'm not sure how to debug this. I don't have any error messages in the console. I don't know if it's the sender code that does not send anything. But clearly the receiving code is not triggered so I guess the .onmessage event is not detected. Where can I see in the javascript console if the message is sent ?

Any time I open Firefox and then immediately try to navigate to any webpage, nothing happens for a few seconds. I'd guess 6+ seconds? The loading icon on the tab will move, but there is no network activity indicated at the bottom of the window nor in the Network Monitor (ctrl+shift+e) until after a few seconds. Once this delay period has passed, all pages load as normal. It does this every time, without fail, even in safe mode. I am using the 64-bit version but also had a 32-bit version still installed, so I decided to launch that version instead, since it still uses my profile and so everything should otherwise be the same. This version did not have the delay. I was able to load a webpage immediately. I have deleted this 32-bit version, thinking it may be interfering somehow (perhaps because using the same profile? idk), but it changed nothing. I can't imagine how the 64-bit version would perform worse than the 32-bit, so I don't just assume switch over. I'd like to continue with the 64-bit version, as I have sufficient RAM to make use of it. I've tried a good handful of solutions, but nothing. Any ideas? I've included troubleshooting info, in case that's useful at all.

This is in some way only a quality of life feature (request?). Is there a quicker way for searching through your browsing history than going to the actual browsing history window and searching through it using the search bar? I'm looking for something similar to when you enter "%" in the search bar to search through your opened tabs or "?" to "go into google mode" (or whatever search engine you have set up).

In my preferences I have "Restore previous session" checkbox checked and "Warn you when quitting the browser" unchecked. However I get a warning when I quit the browser with multiple tabs open, and my old tabs don't reopen when reopening Firefox.

Hi, i am a Firefox lover. I have been using Firefox for about 3 years. But have one things that i really hate in Firefox, that is bookmark bar in Firefox not disappear automatic when you are not in Newtab. My screen is quiet small (13 inch) so it's quiet anoy when the bookmark bar take a small space of the interface. I just wonder that why Firefox don't make it like Chrome?
I tried a way, which is using custom userChrome.css but it's animation is not smooth.
I really love Firefox and i hope that you will make it become more convenient for users.
Thank you.

There are several posts on this site regarding uninstalling Firefox. I am running current Firefox on current W10 64bit 1903 desktop PC using Ethernet with Spectrum as my ISP. I am having a couple of problems in Firefox that are not happening in current Chrome. 1. Page-not-found 2-8 times a day that resolve every time by simply clicking the "retry" (or something close to that) button. I reset my router to "factory" and installed most current router firmware but that did not help. Netgear Support has been unable to help. 2. In current LastPass addon, I have to re-login to LastPass every time I start Firefox - did not used to do that (a year ago), and in Chrome or Edge that does not happen. I have re-installed the LastPass add-on. I have upgraded Firefox many times and have cleared history/cache many times. So now I want to COMPLETELY remove Firefox, reboot, and then install Firefox from scratch. Can someone please point me to the web page that tells me how to properly remove all of Firefox so that I can re-download/install it from the beginning? I do not care about retaining my Firefox settings or other from my current Firefox install.

I don't normally save and restore sessions, but do have firefox set to restore the previous session in the event of a crash.
Recently, following a power cut, such a session restore occurred, correctly restoring all the pages I had open at the time (not many), and the scroll position within the page.
Since this happened, any page I open on one particular site (https://www.theguardian.com) now always scrolls to the end of the page, and I have to manually scroll back up to the top. Once loaded, you can scroll the page normally, but F5 refresh will reload the page and scroll to the end again. This effect is persistent across restarts, and I've not found a way to get rid of it.
I've tried simulating another crash with that site open, scrolled to the top, and I've tried enabling saving the session on exit and restoring on startup - none of this has changed anything. In both cases it restored the session and scrolled to the end.
Any suggestions as to where this effect might be coming from?
