Why do I continue to receive a message from Firefox after creating a New Profile?

Firefox This profile was last used with a newer version of this application. Please create a new profile. OK

A new profile PERSONAL #2 was created following the Steps to Create a New Firefox Profile.

What did I do wrong? how to correct, so that I stop receiving the error message?

I asked AI: "I'm being prevented from using options which cause pop ups but I don't think I've deliberately changed any settings. I want to use "analyze the board" on the Gameknot website but I'm being prevented from using it. How can I get it back?" I followed the instructions: "Mozilla Firefox: Click the three lines (top right) > Settings > Privacy & Security > Permissions. Go to the "Pop-up windows" section and click Exceptions, then add https://gameknot.com" but I haven't re-acquired use of the pop up I ant to continue working. I want it back and its extremely irritating as the work around is very long and boring.

My javascript cannot detect the difference beween closing a new preferences tab and a new non domain tab. I believe this is for security reasons. This leads to one of my custom messages popping up when closing a non domain tab, which is not standard behavour on other websites on FireFox. If the user does or does not follow the popup instructions everything works fine. My question is: does this disqualify my website from being posted to the internet for FireFox browsing, or is it tolerable to users and to Mozilla? I have intentionally left out of this post technical information about my javascript. Believe me, I have tried countless ways to code my way out of this situation but due to Firefox's strong security measures, it is impossible. I should mention that perhaps if my script was an addon I would have accesss to the TAbs API which might offer a solution. The purpose of the script is to update the website to changes to the default Browser Zoom Level as found in the prefererence settings. Does anyone know if this purpose is compatible with FireFox Addon developement?Thanks so much for directing me to informed assistance. I hope the post is not "TMI"!!

Hello,

Last week sometime (perhaps earlier) all my saved USCIS links stopped being able to load in Firefox. See uploaded images - the same link below will give me the "access denied" page - however if I first navigate to uscis.gov, the links work. I have tried deleting my history and cookies, but the problem persists.

Thank you,
