Opening PDFs automatically with Firefox and, without any changes I might make, saving them with the download function in Firefox, actually ruins the functionality and data entry function of that file. Specifically this happens with PDF files downloaded from the (not all that amusing) PDFs from the FINCEN, (US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network). I do not see why and how Firefox thinks it is allowed to change files that are simply downloaded and saved on Firefox.

In other words, it seems that Firefox strips away certain "permissions" and/or "functions" (like built-in lookup, menu or choice boxes). This means that the file so downloaded via Firefox can no longer be used to properly fill in data, or to look up and choose data items within the file. (I see many times that ANYTHING having to do with "permissions" tends to be an intractable and unsolvable problem for software makers & experts, so, if you do not know right away how to solve the problem, it will probably take you several years to figure this out.)

The PDF in question is created by a government agency. If you have ever dealt with a government agency, then you know that they act sort of like Adobe or Microsoft: "They don't respond, or they do respond & say they do not understand, and if they understand, they are either unwilling or unable to fix the problem."

If there is a switch or option within Firefox, which lets me tell Firefox "Save this file exactly like it is received, nothing added or removed!", that would be nice. I just have not found such an option yet, and it would be nice if it might get provided someday.

I will share my browser data, but I am sort of convinced that a detailed question like mine will not be addressed within that shared data.

When I open a new browser window it does not open and fill the screen but opens to the right. How do I change the placement and size of a new brower window?

Thanks

Hello,

After an update, every time I open firefox my history appears in a sidebar. I find it very annoying to the point I will stop using firefox if I can't get rid of this. Could anybody kindly let me know what to do to stop this behaviour?

Thank you in advance

With the change in the Privacy policy and TOU for Mozilla, it's been mentioned in several official responses that certain functionality will not be possible going forward without those changes.

If I never use suggestions, hints, or any mozilla services with firefox. Just what functionality becomes a problem that you need to change the "We will never sell your data" and the other equally disturbing "you grant mozilla a irrevocable non-exclusive royalty free right..."?

How about some clear transparency instead of the opaque non-specific statements you've been making?

Loyal users of firefox for the last 20+ years deserve better than this.

Oh, and why can't I remove the search shortcuts for bookmarks, tabs and history, I'd like to map those keys to something else.

Hi 🦊,

I love the new integration with AI chatbots in the Firefox sidebar—such an awesome feature! 🙌

However, I’ve run into an inconvenience: the logins happen in the default browser context, which causes conflicts between different accounts. For example, I use my personal Google account for OpenAI and my company Google account for Gemini, and I don’t want them to share the same context.

It would be amazing if I could assign a container to each chatbot, just like I can when opening a new tab. Even grouping all AI chatbot logins into a dedicated container or context—separate from the generic one—would go a long way toward solving this.

Thanks for the great work and for considering this!

I am using Firefox as my primary browser on my windows 11 computer and two android devices. Weatherunderground.com works in Firefox android. It also works in Chrome and Edge. I am running Firefox version 37.0.1 (64-bit) on my computer (Windows 11, version 24H2). The latter was installed in January. The issue with weatherunderground arrived about a week ago. When I say it doesn't work in Firefox, I mean that it only starts to load - displays some of the day's weather and then any attempt to refresh or click anywhere freezes that website.

New update to Firefox as part of a Windows update on 4/10/25 described a new firefox layout. I went to explore this new capability and firefox had a banner across the top saying my PC was managed by an enterprise. I built this PC from scratch.... How do I turn this setting off?

My Windows computer did an update last night and this morning all of my bookmarks on the side tool bar are gone on Firefox. Can i get those back? How? Thank you.
