If I highlight text on any page in Firefox 136.0, and then ask Gemini to "Explain this", Gemini opens in the Sidebar (I have selected the RHS of the screen for the sidebar), but my selected text is not entered into Gemini, and nothing happens. If I try this again while the sidebar is open, I get the message "Something went wrong, try reloading this page" Reloading the page doesn't help.

For many years now I've had Firefox clear

• browsing & download history
• temporary cached files and pages
• saved form info

but not

• cookies and site date
• site settings

This worked flawlessly until Firefox updated to version 136, at which point all cookies were deleted and I was signed out of every account on every website.

Looking at the settings page, the option to delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed is now enabled. I don't remember what this setting used to look like, but I did not change it recently.

Unchecking the box seems to work, but I shouldn't suddenly have to do this, and the "damage" is done.

Why did the update to version 136 sign me out of every website, and how do I protect myself against this happening again?

Recently clicked to update to the next version of Firefox. Then I get the message "Restart to Update Firefox." I restart Firefox but the message is still there when I click Help > About Firefox. It would appear that the update did not happen for some reason. Do I need to re-install Firefox to get around this problem?

FINALLY got my zorin os to update, and now also have the newest version of firefox uploaded and working. My singlefile addon works properly, I have upgraded to the newest versions of my video downloaders, and I have cleared my history, but my 2 video downloaders still don't recognize any videos on youtube. Any suggestions or alternative downloaders?

According to Firefox Help, "After you have defined and set your Primary Password, you will be prompted to enter it once for each Firefox session, when Firefox needs access to your stored passwords." But since updating to version 136.0 I get asked for my Primary Password even to see my home page. Why is this?

About a week ago, I started having these problems with FF 136.0 (64-bit) on Windows 10:

• Gmail (mail.google.com) became completely inaccessible
• Google Maps (maps.google.com) opens normally, but app icons stopped displaying correctly (as in attached screenshot)

Comments:

• Gmail and Google Maps are accessible normally on Chrome and Edge
• YouTube (which is another Google product) works fine on my FF
• Tried refreshing FF then tried clearing all cookies, caches, and browsing history, but made no improvement of any kind.

Any advice?

I have been using Linkman for over 15 years and have a very large collection of bookmarks. Is there anyway to enable it? I'd hate abandon Firebox as I do need this extension please help.

Thanks

I have Firefox 136.0.2 (up to date) on Win 11. I want to remove specific autofill items, NOT all autofill items. Web info says use Settings > Privacy & Security > Forms & Autofill BUT there is nothing for Forms and Autofill in my Firefox 136.0.2

Can anyone please help me find how to edit autofill in this version?

Hello,

I have a PDF that opens and displays correctly in Adobe as well as the Edge Browser.

However, when I attempt to open it in Firefox in Windows 11 it doesn't show the letter "i" - - - I swear I'm not making it up. I had a friend try to open it in her Firefox (Windows 10) the letter "i" is also missing.

I wish I could attach the actual PDF so others can test but I will add a screenshot to this message.

Regards,

Paul

Firefox suddenly and inexplicably started asking for my primary password twice when I start the browser. I am not in sync enabled mode. When I cancel the primary password request twice Firefox behaves normally. It does this even after I disable extensions and it does it when I start Firefox in troubleshooting safe mode. My other computer is not doing this.

I'm using Firefox v136.0 on a Windows 11 host.

Each time I open Firefox the software prompts me two times (via a dialog) to enter the primary password. (I previously enabled and defined a primary password.) I'm also prompted twice to enter the primary password when I open the Firefox's SETTINGS page. This happens in "regular" and SAFE mode. I do not have any extensions installed nor themes installed/enabled. The only plugins that are installed are "OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc." and "Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc."

When I delete the primary password, the browser does not prompt me to enter the primary password on startup or when opening the SETTINGS page.

FWIW, I've tried the following sequence, but the problem persists:

1. Uninstall Firefox
2. Delete as many temporary files as I can in $HOME\AppData\Local\Tmp\
3. Delete $HOME\AppData\Local\Mozilla\
4. Delete $HOME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\
5. Reboot
6. Reinstall Firefox
7. Open Firefox and add a primary password
8. Close and reopen Firefox

When I reopen Firefox, it prompts me twice to enter my primary password. When I open Firefox's SETTINGS, I am prompted twice to enter the primary password.

Any suggestions as to how I can convince Firefox to not prompt me twice for the primary password when opening the browser would be appreciated.

I used to have an occasional sound problem with FF, usually felt when YT clips could not be heard any more. I mean to remember that it could be fixed (until next time) by restarting the file explorer somewhere in Task Manager - not a convincing solution but one I could live with.

Today, there's a new situation. Again, trigger was the missing YT sound in FF - not in fx Edge, and that the Task Manager trick didn't work (or maybe I restarted the file manager in the wrong tab?). Looking for a solution, I happened to see that the YT mute function in the FF tabs seems to be gone. However, other sounds are affected likewise. Also, I can't see them in Edge either. After various restarts (or maybe something else I did, instigated by the various instructions I found?), the sound is back.

However, while continuing to pursue possible solutions, I also happened to find that my browser is being 'administered by my organisation' - what ever that means (see two annexes). Who did that? I would say, this is not something I did, I would prefer to see it gone. But how? Will the other browsers (which I keep as a spare, and that I'm hardly familiar with) be likewise affected?

This is an equation with too many unknowns for my limited knowledge, are such effects known? Would there be an approved way-out for it?

PS I have checked https://support.mozilla.org/bm/questions/1412934 especially the message posted by lazizakhmedov1014, and do not see this to apply to me - short of a reinstall - FYI

In my Win 10 PC, Firefox has been set to update automatically as it is recommended.

136.0.2 (64-bit) is the most recent one that updated automatically.

Now all my extensions have been wiped out, my workspace changed.

That is such a breach of integrity, and a lack of respect for the user, and his carefully set up work environment, when an Auto-Update just molests my work environment. And then I have to take out hours from my busy routines, to devote to restoring everything to how it was.

There is no rollback feature for Updates, esp when Updates do the havoc they do.

There is no proper Session Management, and a standard protocol for saving, aggregating sessions across different installs, rollbacks, etc, and having the most updated, and complete one, where the onus is on the user not losing data.

Now I have to go hunt around for the past profiles, and name the present one as old, and hope that Firefox functions with integrity, and completeness to restore my whole work environment from the last profile. I'll of course be losing whatever work I happened to do in the new profile now. One never knows how complete these profiles are to reconstruct things exactly the way they were.

Strange. I always believe that stability, and integrity, and a dedication towards that on behalf of the user would be the primary goal. Now it's all about chasing something else, some bells and whistles, and faster performances, and throwing stability, and data integrity under the bus.

Trying to browse ebay using Firefox. The pages have become really slow when loading.When scrolling down the page is blank then slowly populates as I scroll down the page. I've just tried microsoft edge and there is no problem.

Since the settings haven't given that option for years, the best way to have a local file as the new tab page was using autoconfig.cfg + autoconfig.js, as described in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1251199 But since the most recent update (v136.0), this stopped working.

The New Tab Override add-on has its own issues with using local files (can only load a .html file, no local CSS/JS, can't give a blank address bar for me to search in), so it doesn't solve the issue either.

This is very important to me, and others have been asking for this feature back for years. It feels awful to have the working solution stop working, in the browser that's supposed to be open and customizable.

I regularly fill out surveys and one way I have to verify is by dragging and dropping a number into a box. I have noticed that since I updated Firefox, when I click on the number to drag and drop, it greys it out and it won't move into the box. I was hoping someone could help with this.

I have asked this question once before, but was hoping I could get some help by asking again. The text on my screen will completely bug out, and I have no idea how to stop it. I will attach several images from this screen alone showcasing the issue. It occurs everywhere, including captions. Only Firefox has this issue on my computer. I have tried refreshing Firefox once, and it did not solve the problem.
