Firefox 社群討論區

Due to muscle menu or not needing to think about it. Split should either be near the bottom of the context menu or you should be able to toggle it in settings. The amount of times I have gone to click a link to open in a new window only to split the view is driving me crazy.

I opened Firefox today to find that nothing would show up, at first I tried clicking on the icon on the taskbar, but it just made the icon bounce with the window briefly popping into view. That's when I realized that Firefox was completely offscreen and unusable.

For context, last night, I had 3 windows open, two were regular sessions, the last one was a private session I had open on a temporary second monitor that I unplugged afterward. My dad lended it to me, so I'd rather not ask him again unless I absolutely have to. I closed them in order making sure to close the default window last thinking that Firefox would open there next time I launch it, but comes tomorrow and when I launch Firefox it opens off-screen and I can't interact with the window at all.

There also seems to be no way to bring it back directly to my screen on this garbage OS everyone calls "windows 11" according to their help forum: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/4139775/app-runs-off-screen-in-windows-11?page=2#answers

So, I'm commenting here via brave browser, first to report a bug because I don't think Firefox should remember the last position of a private window of all things, but also because I don't know where else to go to ask that question since windows 11 itself cannot seem to have an option to solve this problem either. I know the position is stored in the profile folder, so what should I edit in there to get Firefox back where it should be? No, I will not delete/reset it it has a ton of search engines and settings that Firefox won't sync.

Something called "safe space" just showed up in my firefox browser... I didn't want it, didn't ask for it!! PLEASE tell me HOW to get rid of it.... PLEASE!!!

One of the websites I need for school requires pop-ups. I can't click on the button to permit pop-up windows for just that site because it only flashes for less than a second and it is grayed out. I tried to go to preferences to disable the pop-up blocker, but the checkbox to disable it is grayed out. I created a new profile, but the button to disable the pop-up blocker is grayed out on that too. I now have to use chrome for this website because I can allow pop-ups on that browser.

My question is why is this setting grayed out? And how can I re-enable pop-ups or at least edit the exception list because that is grayed out right now too. Any other tips for troubleshooting similar issues in the future would also be appreciated.

OS/Firefox packer: Artix Linux Firefox ver.: 142.0 (64-bit) Tested on brand new profile

On Firefox 128.14.0esr (build 20250811113756), Linux/X11, the setting browser.tabs.hoverPreview.enabled does change back to "true" every few days, or perhaps browser restarts.

How can I turn off tab previews reliably?

How do I change the email account inserted by Firefox when I click on an email link?

I have previously changed the main email address (added secondary address, swapped secondary for primary, deleted secondary) but when I click an email link in a web page to write an email to the web page business, the old deleted email account is used instead of the new one. This old address is not listed at all as far as I have seen in my Mozilla Account.

Thanks to the help received here and in the Reddit group I've been able to transfer almost all of my old colour and layout tweaks to a new intallation of Firefox (v133) on a new PC (running Windows 10). There's one thing that I haven't succeeded with though: I'd like to change the colour of the text in a tab when that tab becomes the active one.

This is the coding I'm using to change the tab's background colour when it's selected:

1. TabsToolbar .tab-background[selected]{

background: white !important; }

This works perfectly. But when I tried adding the line

color: black !important;

It had no effect. I'd be grateful for any thoughts. Many thanks.

Hi. Now that the 'Open Link in Split View' has annoyingly replaced the spot previously held by 'Open Link in New Window' i keep clicking on it accidentally (muscle memory).

I don't want to have to retrain my muscle memory, but despite creating css file generated by Claude that should in theory remove the option, and putting it the Profile Folder, it will not go away.

How do i remove it?

Used to work, and does work in the regular version of the desktop app, but no longer works in the beta for desktop 135.0b9, says: "Could not load the image"

Hi It isn't really a question, but it get to know and learn how to use Firefox efficiently before I converted from Safari to Firefox. I knew much more in Safari than in Firefox. Once I know more about Firefox, Firefox will be a default browser in my desktop,mac. Thanks Ted

I am looking to be able to INDEPENDENTLY close Firefox (Standard) windows separate from those running in a Private session.

ATM, it does not seem possible to close just one type of Firefox session without the other.

I see this possibly as a simple about:config switch which would allow one to close ALL Standard or Private windows with the respective system tray icon's "Close (All) Windows" OR the Menu's Exit selection. No other behaviors need change.

USE CASE: I frequently use both types of windows and will sometimes close Firefox Standard and unintentionally loose tabs I have not saved in Private.

Firefox is the default browser and pinned to the taskbar. When clicked, Firefox automatically opens places an additional icon in the taskbar. Once Firefox opens, in the second icon, any new links open in tabs, which is my preference.

The first image is the pinned icon in the taskbar. When hovering it only displays Firefox. The second image is the additional icon, when hovering over this icon the active page thumbnail is displayed.

Prior versions of Firefox did not have this behavior on my Windows 11 desktop PC. I've tried various settings in about:config but cannot resolve this issue. Is there some reason two icons are now required in the taskbar when running Firefox?

For a while now firefox has been unable to enter fullscreen when pressing F11. Instead all it does is move the "Scroll forwards", "Open a new tab", and "List all tabs" button over slightly (The buttons on the top right, next to the minimize and close buttons).

I don't know what's going on with firefox.

Firefox Version 142.0.1 (64-bit)

I read online that Firefox is planning on implementing AI features. Given the track record of AI in other browsers leaking private information, bogging down connectivity, and generally being a nuisance towards users, I was wondering if there will be opt out features in future updates? Or know of forum threads that will update with tutorials on how to turn off AI features?

If not, does anyone on this forum have recommendations for no-ai browsers?

hi, spellchecking works fine when using Firefox in Linux, but not in Windows 11. For instance, I can enter comments and replies to magazine articles while using Linux and they're spellchecked as I go by highlighting misspelled words etc, but if I'm in Windows 11 and on the same comments section, although my Firefox settings are the same the spellcheck doesn't happen. Can anyone please tell me what's up with that?

New installation of Debian 13, Firefox setup with sync on successful. However, I wanted to add hone button and a few other mods to the toolbar but when I started customize the toolbar from menu pic the customization page would not work, it appeared and seemed OK but when I dragged and dropped anything it would not work. I could pickup items but they would not place in toolbar and just snapped back to the pallet. I tried several different ways to enter the customization area but it was always non-functional.
