every time firefox does these automatic updates in the background, it resets certain security settings that cause me anger and frustration.

example: is that I access all my secure sites via Lastpass... and the latest update has killed that ability and I need now to go down into the bowels of the firefox settings to figure out how to get Last pass functionality working again...it is a huge time waster and frustrating when I need to use this immediately.

any advice for me before I give up firefox and revert to using a Chrome browser again?

All of a sudden today when I click onm add theme to Thunderbird I don't get the usual dialog. I am told the the site wants to install a theme and I am only presented with 'Learn more' and 'Cancel.'

Any ideas why? James

I have not been on my computer in 6 months. Everything seems to have change. (1) how do I sign in easily. (2) who is running this site? What important information do I need to use this site again? It looks entirely different now. How is the best way to become comfortable with this site again. Thank you for any help you can provide.

I want to downgrade to a previous version without having to create a new profile. I don't want the Firefox logo on the default new tab page, and I tried to change it in the about:config list but that didn't work even after a complete computer restart. It worked in the previous version. I do not want to create a new profile. My current one is just fine. How can I do that? Thank you!

Hi. I am trying to update my firefox. i have been getting a pop-up saying that I need to do this. However, I forgot my password so I now I sign in using my Apple account. When I get a small sign-in box to fill in it shows my user name as Gale Miller (my name) and not my email address. Then it rejects my new password. Please advise. Thank you, Gale

I'm used to manually update firefox browser on my windows 10 pc, everything was fine before, but I found a strange situation about two weeks ago, the situation has occurred twice so far --

For the previous version, I manually download update in settings, firefox browser can be restarted but not updated after clicking restart firefox button, and an error notificaion firefox being updated by another instance appeared instead of 'check for updates button, then the update process started when I exit firefox browser and reopened it.

For the latest version, the strange situation occurred again when I tried to manually update firefox browser, the only difference is that I don't see the error notification from last time.

Why does the situation happen? Do it cause any risk? How can I fix it?

Firefox will not open in my Windows 11 desktop; is Microsoft playing games with non-Microsoft applications or is there a problem with my browser? fresh install does not help! last week I had to reset Windows 11 because nothing would open in my desktop...... reloading all my application is not near the top of my wish list having already done it twice! all the Microsoft stuff opens fine; even my copy of Office 2003?

Hello,

This new version of firefox. I am experiencing icons grey out whenever I opened a new tab. Is anyone experiencing this below?

[Highlighted Icons in new Tab https://i.postimg.cc/RFzrm98Q/Screenshot-2025-03-05-012153.png]

using 64 bit Linux here.

I download an update, but it doesn't do anything. It constantly tells me I need to download an update. Currently using 133.0.3

I managed to get an update through Linux, but now I'm having trouble with Linux. I suspect I need to remove Firefox and reload it. I tried to do that one time but it didn't fix the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

I already have "Automatically install updates" and "When Firefox is not running" enabled.

But after each Firefox update I still get the "Do you want to allow this app to make changes..." prompt and "Firefox is installing your updates and will start in a few moments" window. These are inconvenient as they require user input and take up time.

I don't get these on all other browsers I use (including Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox, Opera, Vivaldi, Brave), which all update in the background seamlessly.

Is there a way to prevent these in Firefox and just have Firefox update seamlessly in the background like other browsers?
