This is a new install of debian 13 trixie. I have a subscription to mozillavpn. It was working on a previous install of debian. I use synaptic to install flatpak. I use flatpak to install warehouse. I use warehouse to install mozillavpn. Once installed I highlight the package mozilla vpn in warehouse then click open. A mozillavpn icon appears in the taskbar. Also a window that is shaped like a cell phone open up. This window has a button to "sign up", also it has a link to "already a subscriber?". I click the "already a subscriber" link. It changes to a page that says "waiting for sign in and subscription confirmation..." with a rotating circle and a button to cancel. It also opens a separate browser to a start page. I wait awhile but nothing happens. I change the browser page to my mozilla account page at "https://accounts.firefox.com/settings" Nothing happens. There's a button on the account page to "connect a device" but I don't know what to do with it. Under the heading "Everything you are using and signed into." it has 2 entries: "Firefox 153, Linux" and "Mozilla Support". Both entries have a "sign out" button. Back at the mozilla vpn cell phone shaped window the spinner just spins and nothing else. So I'm stuck. I click cancel and it goes back to the "sign up' / "already a subscriber?" page. From the icon in the taskbar I click quit and both the window and the icon go away. Everything seems to working but I am not registering as a subscriber. I've tried this several times over the course of 2 days. It's always the same.

Hi! I´m using Jdownloader2. After an update of Firefox the captcha-extension of JDownloader didn´t work anymore. I reinstalled Firefox, but adding the extension is still prevented. Following quote appears: "Firefox hat die Website daran gehindert, Sie zu fragen, ob Software installiert werden soll" It should be in yellow (but it isn´t), like following site describes: https://support.mozilla.org/de/kb/Add-ons-koennen-nicht-installiert-werden#w_firefox-hat-die-website-daran-gehindert-sie-zu-fragen-ob-software-installiert-werden-soll Furthermore there should be a button to authorize the installation. Instead there is only the button "OK". I followed the help-site mentioned above to the letter, to no avail. By the way, I´m using Nightly now, but JDownloader2 automatically wants access to Firefox. Would you please tell me, how to add the mentioned extension. Without it I couldn´t download most files! Please answer to following email: [redacted email from community support forum]

Hi,

In the latest firefox update 154, no start pages are displayed that were distributed with a registry key via group policy. It only works again if you change this setting manually in the Firefox settings.

In Version 153 it´s fine.

When the new update arrived yesterday, I started getting multiple popups from McAfee & Mozilla. Three stay on the screen at once, and when I X one, another appears instantly. This appears to be a scam trojan, but 3 different excellent anti-virus programs have not found anything. This never happened until the latest update. What do you know about this? I don't want to uninstall & start over, but what other suggestion do you have? p.s Usually when I right click on one of them, it takes me to a McAfee ad. I just clicked on one that gave me the option to turn off notifications. That seemed to stop it, at least for now. Am I the only one with this problem? [redacted email from community support forum]

Firefox created a folder "Old Firefox data" on my desktop which is impossible to delete. I am getting an error "Access denied" even when trying to delete it as administrator. How can I delete this folder?

We are evaluating Mozilla Firefox/Firefox ESR as a temporary workaround for an enterprise application that currently depends on XSLT. Our application is expected to be upgraded by the end of February 2027, after which the XSLT dependency will no longer be required. We understand that Mozilla is investigating the deprecation/removal of XSLT from Firefox, but we have not found a confirmed removal date.

Could you please confirm: Is there a planned Firefox or Firefox ESR release in which XSLT will be disabled or removed? Can you confirm whether XSLT is expected to remain supported through February 2027? If removal is planned, which Firefox/ESR version is expected to remove it? Does Firefox ESR provide any additional guarantee or extended support for XSLT? Is there an official Mozilla roadmap or documentation that we can reference for our enterprise planning?

This information is important because we have approximately 5,000 users who may be affected, and we need to determine whether Firefox can safely be used as a temporary workaround until our application upgrade.

Are there any •SERIOUS• “Thunderbird” savvy computer geeks in 155.0that could help me merge “old” user profile directories from *crashed* computer to a new computer without messing up either one?🙏

i used to do this stuff (with my eyes closed) but I no longer remember if I had breakfast today and they are my wife’s files! 🤬

I have new notebook computer plus the •entire• old computer data on a USB stick.

The current version of Firefox is very frustrating to use. It often will not let me enter a password but will send me to the saved passwords. I do not want to put all my passwords on the computer. I have 2 U tube accounts, and the new Firefox will not let me enter the account info directly, but sends me to Google. I have had to resort to using Microsoft Edge out of sheer frustration with Firefox. Previous versions of Firefox did not have these problems
