Hello!

I've installed a couple of dark mode extensions since I can't use Dark Reader and NordPass at the same time due to a bug. I wanted to disable / uninstall them, but I can't find them anywhere when I go to about:addons and they're not showing up in the mini-menu on the toolbar.

Is there a way for me to still find them so that I can remove them?

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

I seem to have accidentally set up tab-groups, on desktop. Probably I fat-fingered a shortcut to group some tabs. This is a function I'll never intentionally use — since I'd rather not cut off my fat fingers, is there a way to permanently shut off tab-groups?

Thank you kindly.

After the last Firefox update, every time I touch my tablet screen the onscreen keyboard pops up. I figured out how to turn the onscreen keyboard off completely, but I don't want that. I want the onscreen keyboard to still pop up when I put the cursor in a search box.

Frequently (Roughly every other time at this point, it was less frequent when the problem first started) when I turn on my computer and open firefox, I end up looking at the attached image (How I have come to loathe it) and find that all of my settings have been reset to the defaults (usually, sometimes its only most of them), and all of my tabs have been closed. Most concerningly it is happening on two different devices. After I fix all my settings I have to close and reopen firefox twice (its almost always twice, if the second time doesnt do it then its about a dozen) and just clicking the X doesnt do anything at all, I have to close it with the task manager. This has been happening for a little over a month.

Facts that might matter: I am using two different windows laptop computers from different manufacturers, by default I do not log into firefox. My previously tabs are saved so I am usually able to restore them but there appears to be a limit because I often lose several. my history is still intact and websites that I am logged into usually remain logged in. my extensions are still there but logged out. I use Nord VPN I have my settings set to always ask me before applying a firefox update.

Things I have tried and still experienced this issue: Logging into different firefox accounts making sure I am logged out of firefox accounts turning off my VPN changing my VPN location browsing with the default settings restarted my computer without changing anything else (Things were still borked). waiting for the next firefox update reverting to a previous update.

While working in Chrome I get desktop notifications from web-based chat applications in my Firefox browser. I would click on the notifications and would be instantly redirected to the Firefox webpage with the new chat. Now when I click on it the Firefox icon in the taskbar just blinks and I have to click on it to open the Firefox window. This just started about 2 weeks ago; I suspect that a Windows update from then may be the culprit. I'm running the latest version of Windows 11 on a HP ProBook 445 G8 Notebook PC.

I am not using any extension, my data clears automatically every 24 hours. I have issues using websites and am told I need to clear my cache or check my extensions. It's neither of these. What is wrong?

My bookmarks previously would be displayed on the left of the screen when I start Firefox. For some reason someone thought it would be an improvement to force me to use another click to show my bookmarks. Forcing the user to make more clicks is NEVER a good design choice. There seems to be no setting for getting my bookmarks displayed by default. Now there is just a setting whether or not to show a "sidebar" with a button I must click to show the bookmarks. Bring back my bookmarks please, or add a setting to allow me to get them back.

Thanks.

In /Library/Preferences/org.mozilla.firefox.plist:

``` <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>EnterprisePoliciesEnabled</key> <true /> <key>ExtensionSettings</key> <dict> <key>cloudmetering@snowsoftware.com</key> <dict> <key>install_url</key> <string>https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SnowSoftware/agent-firefox-extension/refs/heads/main/cloudmetering-v1.2.3.xpi</string> <key>installation_mode</key> <string>force_installed</string> </dict> </dict> </dict> </plist>```

In about:policies: {"cloudmetering@snowsoftware.com":{"installation_mode":"blocked","install_url":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SnowSoftware/agent-firefox-extension/refs/heads/main/cloudmetering-v1.2.3.xpi"}}

The plist file did read "blocked" at one point, but it no longer does. Why isn't firefox picking up the new value from the plist file? Restarting/refresing FF has not helped so far.

I have noticed Firefox is ignoring the max_pages and transient max_pages settings, both set to 999999 and still deleting browsing history after 2-3 months here.

What can be done? Is there a way to get the developers to fix this so it stops deleting, ideally by adding a boolean setting?
