I have an website which I prior to this error message have visited many times on Firefox and had no problems. Recently though around two days ago I noticed that I couldn't get in and was met with the following message "Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead". I can't bypass it apparently and I really need to be able to access this site as it's a University site.
I can access the site on other browsers such as Chrome and Edge but I use Firefox as my default browser and I'd like to keep it that way. I'd appreciate any help I can get.

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?

I have several saved cards in 152.0.1 (64-bit). When on a payment site the drop-down list shows up as expected, so the extensions.formautofill.creditCards.supportedCountries is correct and working (GB). Also address filling still works, as does saved passwords,
However if I try to "Manage payment methods" the resulting list in "about:preferences#managePayments" is blank. (see image)
I have tried toggling on and off "save & autofill" and restarting, but nothing helps.
Adding a new card works, and the new card appears in the drop-down list on a payment form, but still nothing appears to edit or remove in the settings. How an I edit this list?
PS: I have disabled ALL extensions.

I just opened Firefox on my Win 11 pc, and find all my tabs have gone. The setting to reopen last session is active, as before. I think FF updated itself earlier today. I also had occasion to look at it briefly on my synchronised android phone. I would like to: - get my tabs back - find a way to stop this haappening (it's not the first time).
Any advice much appreciated, thanks. Richard

I went to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-backup] and under "Create a Firefox backup file" at step 3 it says, "Scroll down to Backup, and click Manage backup" but when I went there no such "Manage backup" option exists as you can see in the attached screen capture. So what gives? How can I "Create a Firefox backup file"? I am using Firefox v147.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11 Please instruct. Thanks RJB

Firefox 152.0.3 on Windows 10. SVG icons such as Google Maps interstate shields flash briefly then turn into squiggly lines. Same issue occurs when uploading images to websites and viewing Amazon book previews. Works fine in Chrome. Already tried: disabling hardware acceleration, toggling gfx.webrender.all, gfx.webrender.software.d3d11, gfx.webrender.allow-partial-present-buffer-age in about:config, clearing startup cache, removing Tampermonkey extension, disabling Killer Network Manager (CNMNSST.exe). I uploaded an image of how interstate icons show up in google maps.

I have a Firefox icon on my Windows11 desktop, Start, and one on the taskbar. If I click one either the Firefox icon on the desktop or Start I will get another icon on the task bar and I can do this over and over on my personal desktop getting many Firefox icons.
I just purchased a new Dell Windows11 desktop and have installed Firefox. I set it up just like my personal desktop and have icons on the desktop, Start, and taskbar but every time I click the Firefox desktop or Start icon I don't get a separate icon in the taskbar but they pile up behind the original Firefox on the taskbar. If the cursor hovers over the Firefox icon then I can see the multiple Firefox homepages that I generated.
I have searched for an answer to this problem but have been unsuccessful. I would really appreciate some thoughts on this issue. Firefox has been my one and only browser for many years and I love it 99% of the time, just not this one time. :-) Thank you in advance. Chuck Hall

Since recently 1~2 version, my Firefox keeps consume large amount of memory and release it repeatedly
Even I restart Firefox and do nothing, it will start doing this again
I use about:processes and about:memory to capture this seems the main process's "tab.query" causing this, please check
PS: sometime it will consume till system max (64GB) and cause my OS out of memory. PS2: that wave-like memory usage is cause by Firefox

Hey guys,
Can you please tell me how to get my extensions to appear on the toolbar? As you can see from the image (titled "forFirefox03"), only one is shown.
The images (titled "forFirefox01" and "forFirefox02") show all the extensions that I would like to have on the toolbar.
I've included the "About Firefox" (titled "forFirefox04") to show you which browser version I have.
I don't know if I need to show you the title names, but I'm used to Microsoft Answers, where I can put the images between the text, and here, I can't, so I'm assuming I have to show you them as names and images.

I am reopening the question from 2020 as the solution described no longer seems to apply. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1284577
I am running Windows 11. Firefox 144.0 (64-bit)
When entering search terms into the search bar in the centre of the page, the information typed appears in the address bar, even after following the fix described in 1284577.
Treating the address bar as the search bar appears to be the default. While the user can additionally deselect the search engine in the address bar, that is an unnecessary and undesired additional step for every search (the primary reason I am using Firefox)
Is there a way to permanently set the default for what I enter into the search bar to remain in the search bar and not to be managed by the address bar? Thanks, Rich
I am on v143 and the Help says that, from v140, there should be an Unload Tab option on the right-click menu: there isn't! I've re-loaded the program twice BTW.

While using Facebook, I changed some Meta setting to block ads, then unblocked it. After this, Firefox does not show any Facebook info. Switching to Edge, everything shows as normal. Can't see any setting on the Firefox settings page that controls this.

As of today, I am unable to scroll with my mouse in google sheets. The scroll bar on the right disappears and I'm taken to the bottom of the spreadsheet and can't scroll back up. I have to use CTRL+Home and then the arrow keys to go down the rows. This appears to be only on Firefox. I tried a different browser and it worked fine.

Firefox crashes whenever it would need access to my camera or microphone. So far it has only happened whn trying to access a Roll20 game with camera and microphone connectivity, and when trying to access a video appointment for Universal Credit. It never happened on Windows 10, but since updating to Windows 11 it happens every time without fail, and the crash is immediate.

(AI written summary of troubleshooting steps taken before making this support thread)
Firefox version: - 152.0.1 Release - 153.0 Nightly
OS: - Windows 11 build 26200
GPU: - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER
Codec package: - Microsoft HEVC Video Extensions installed from Microsoft Store
Problem
Firefox does not expose HEVC playback support, causing Twitch to disable 1440p streams encoded with HEVC.
The same machine can play the same HEVC Twitch streams in Chrome immediately after installing HEVC Video Extensions.
Expected result
Firefox should report HEVC playback support and allow playback of HEVC streams, as Chrome does on the same system.
Actual result
Firefox reports HEVC as unsupported.
about:support:
codecSupportInfo: H264 SWDEC HWDEC VP9 SWDEC HWDEC VP8 SWDEC HWDEC AV1 SWDEC HWDEC HEVC NONE
Troubleshooting already performed
- Installed Microsoft HEVC Video Extensions - Rebooted Windows - Updated NVIDIA drivers - Verified hardware acceleration is enabled - Tested with a brand new Firefox profile - Tested with Firefox Nightly - Confirmed Chrome can play the same HEVC streams
Additional observations
Chrome: - Twitch 1440p becomes available immediately after installing HEVC Video Extensions - Twitch Stats for Nerds reports:
hev1.1.6.L150.90.0.0.0.0.0
Firefox: - Twitch reports that the browser does not support the required resolution - 1440p remains greyed out - about:support continues to report HEVC NONE
Reproducible tests
Firefox console:
MediaSource.isTypeSupported('video/mp4; codecs="hev1.1.6.L150.90"')
Result: false
MediaSource.isTypeSupported('video/mp4; codecs="hvc1.1.6.L150.90"')
Result: false
navigator.mediaCapabilities.decodingInfo({
type: "media-source",
video: {
contentType: 'video/mp4; codecs="hev1.1.6.L150.90"',
width: 2560,
height: 1440,
bitrate: 8000000,
framerate: 60
}
})
Result: {
supported: false, smooth: false, powerEfficient: false
}
For comparison:
MediaSource.isTypeSupported('video/mp4; codecs="av01.0.08M.08"')
Result: true
navigator.mediaCapabilities.decodingInfo({
type: "file",
video: {
contentType: 'video/mp4; codecs="av01.0.08M.08"',
width: 2560,
height: 1440,
bitrate: 8000000,
framerate: 60
}
})
Result: {
supported: true, smooth: true, powerEfficient: true
}
Additional note
Setting:
dom.media.webcodecs.h265.enabled = true
causes HTML5 codec test (https://html5test.co/) to report H.265 support, but does not change:
- about:support - MediaSource.isTypeSupported() - MediaCapabilities.decodingInfo() - Twitch HEVC playback availability
Question
Is this a known issue with HEVC Media Source Extensions support on Windows 11 build 26200, or is there another requirement for Firefox to expose HEVC playback capability through MediaSource and MediaCapabilities when the Windows HEVC codec is installed and functioning in Chromium-based browsers?

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?
