Firefox Community Forum

Hi!

My default search engine has always been Firefox for years. Since the last Firefox update, when I select + and get to a New Tab, the search engine changes to Google.

I am on Windows 10. I want the New Tab to stay with Firefox. Any tips?

Thank you for your help! TS

Hello,

I dislike the Group Tabs feature. So many times I've accidentally created a Group Tab and then had to figure out how to un-group them.

I've tried to change the value of the "browser.tabs.groups.enabled" preference to false, but it doesn't stick; after restarting, the value is always back to "true".

What’s up with this?

Thanks, Andre’a

OS: Windows 10 (64 bit) Thunderbird 128.10.1esr (32bit)

I have used Thunderbird without issue for a few years. Today, my inboxes are partially full and emails have mysteriously disappeared. I opened it in safe mode and all the emails are there. I followed help suggestions to disable extensions and addons. The emails have not returned to my inboxes but still appear in safe mode.

I am not a techie and find this very challenging.

Please please could someone help me? I would be so grateful. Thank you in advance. email: jj.7@gmx.us Best wishes JJ

When I do a google search, say for a electric saw, I get list (obviously), If I click on the item a window opens on the right hand side of the screen in enlarged picture.... this has never happened before, to stop this I have tried altering the 'search suggestions' and doing a re-start all to no avail.

Is this a Google antic or is it a setting? Can anyone advise please?

Thank's Dave

i'm trying to use policies.json to whitelist pages user can visit. When I apply changes, after browser restart I see it reacts (I use correct file), I use the template of: { "policies": { "WebsiteFilter": { "Block": ["<all_urls>"], "Exceptions": [ ....

here is see on adding an exception item - it is allowed, on removing it is not. I have a system running on http://localhost:8090. I tried multiple patterns and none of them allowed me entering my page: "*://localhost:*/*", "*://127.0.0.1:*/*", "http://127.0.0.1:8090", "http://localhost:8090", "*://www.localhost:*", "*://www.localhost:*/*", "http://localhost:8090", "http://localhost:8090/*", "https://localhost:8090/", "https://localhost:8090/*", "localhost:8090", "127.0.0.1:8090",

when changing: "Block": ["<all_urls>"], to "_Block": ["<all_urls>"],

I can open my page. I checked in console if there are any requests to other domains/ports - no. It makes single GET request to http://localhost:8090. What am I doing wrong?

I am on Canada. I am using a Lenovo Laptop with WIN 10 (22H2) and Firefox 138.04 64bit. When connected to a local streaming service I am refused service because I show as being out of the country. When I load Microsoft Edge and connect I am suddenly back in Canada. The steaming service does not have an answer. Any clues as to why this occurs?

Hello, Until recently, I was able to double tap the browser bar and have the window expand to fill the screen just short of "full screen" mode so I could still see the menu/task bar. I remember I did need to adjust settings for this somewhere but can no longer figure it out now that it is not functioning to this spec any more.

I did check about:config to see if "apz.allow_double_tap_zooming" was set to TRUE and it is, by following this suggestion below:

This is not an error, but it may be useful for some users of the Mac version of Firefox to know.

I have several tabs pinned to the left side of the tab bar (just the icons). Some of them I intend to use as "model" tabs to be duplicated for a session and the duplicate then deleted (such as bank logins).

I have found that, if I left-click to select a pinned tab and THEN right click and select Duplicate Tab, the duplicate appears immediately to the right of the pinned tabs, and to the left of any open non-pinned tabs. But if I right-click the pinned tab WITHOUT first left-clicking it, it goes to the right of the LAST non-pinned tab on the right.

This does not cause any errors, but it may be useful for some people to know; they can control where they want the duplicate tab to appear when they create it!

Have been unable to login to Spectrum using Firefox for some time now. Checked with Spectrum techs & they say the problem is with Firefox. Also having trouble with other streaming sites using my ID's & passwords. They all seem to work using Chrome. Can you please help get back to logging in with Firefox?
