If I click "Display the progress of ongoing downloads" I can see what is currently downloading, but then when I click "Show All Downloads", nothing shows on the next screen. I've rebooted and restarted Firefox several times, on one or two occasions items DO come up on that next screen, but usually nothing is showing.

A couple days ago, some weird issues have started:

• All my bookmarks are gone
• Any of the buttons in the UI that open a smaller UI do not work (such as the 3 bar menu)
• Similarly, right clicking to open a menu (such as "Save Image") also does not work
• Any dropdown menus in websites seem to also not work. For example, in this very support page, I could not select an option in the "Which topic best describes your question?".

I can't restart and troubleshoot Firefox since I can't access the 3 bar menu.

(not the first time) Mozilla closed all my open tabs... Well, maybe she was sick of the number of them... However, from the magazine, "recently closed tabs" are not restored, even though there is such a function.... And also - I use exclusively portable versions of the fox... When I click on the link, somewhere, in Telegram or on... dating site (joke), they open them, not my beautiful chanterelle, but some faceless dog, that is, firefox, absolutely clean, without themes, without extensions, without bookmarks... Why is it happening?

Firefox repeatedly crashes on my, multiple times a day. I'dc really like to NOT have to change my default browser to Chrome.

What happens is that Firefox freezes, and I get a white bar at the top telling me so. I get a popup box asking if I want to close Firefox or wait for it to respond. Waiting doesn't work, so I always have to close Firefox. When I reopen it, fortunately all m,y open tabs are retained, but it crashes again within minutes or seconds as soon as I click on anything.

There only thing that seems to work is a reboot of my PC. But the respite is short before Firefox crashes again.

I've disabled most plugins, but that hasn't helped. Is there a way to create an event log within Firefox that I can share with someone at Mozilla to help e debug the issue? It's got to be something local rather than Firefox itself; I can't imagine this is happening to most users.

Firefox keeps crashing. I tried refresh and am afraid to totally uninstall for fear of losing my tabs and data. Why is this crashing all of a sudden. Also will not play Youtube videos. I have cleared cache and history.

Firefox 145.0, (64 bit), ASUS laptop, Windows 11, <object>PDF. Embedded PDFs do not display in-page. Issue seems to only exist on this particular device. On same ISP pages display properly on other (HP) laptop and Tablet. I've disabled a few extensions and it displays properly.

My question: Which extension(s) will cause the issue?

After the most recent update, the Home Page does not show the minimize, maximize, and close buttons, when I first open the Firefox Browser. I can click task bar / show desktop and then maximize the Firefox Browser. Once I do that, the forementioned Home Page buttons appear. It seems that a fix is needed for this glitch.

A week ago I got a BSOD that ruined settings of most of my extensions and most likely some of Firefox's settings too (at least it erased my custom findbar.matchdiacritics value, but probably not just that). After that I moved Firefox's folder and re-installed it. I also created a new profile. The 2 profiles are synced. Because of that, the new profile got (almost) all the extensions from the old one automatically. Then, I decided to do a clean install of those extensions (the reason why is a story for another ticket). So, while both profiles were opened, I removed one extension in the new profile, waited for a bit and checked the old one to see if it got removed from there too. At first it wasn't, so I thought they are not synced (anymore). Yeah, sure, but once I removed all extensions from the new one, the old one woke up and removed all extensions from there too. Great! Awesome! Loved it wholeheartedly! It really had to wait until I removed them all, didn't it? Anyway, I had a backup of my old profile, so I restored my extensions and their settings on both profiles eventually. So now I have clean installs of Firefox and extensions. Back to the issue. I can't load Steam pages (at least store.steampowered and steamcommunity) normally anymore. They load forever, and if the blue dot eventually stops moving (after an insane amount of time), it's either a plain white screen, or badly loaded page with most images missing.

• Edge loads them just fine
• Steam client loads them just fine.
• If I turn on VPN plugin (I use Browsec), then it works. It's like that in both old and new profile. That's why I mentioned that funny little story before.
• Tried Troubleshoot Mode, didn't help.
• Tried to selectively disable some extensions, same.
• Obviously tried to remove cookies, Ctrl + F5 and whatnot. Btw, if I clean everything and try to load it, then it's (most likely?) a white page, but if I turn the VPN on and load it first, and then turn it off and reload it, then it will look a bit better, but still will load forever with some media missing. (Which kinda make sense since something was already cached.)
• Tried to change proxy settings from “Use system proxy settings” to “No proxy” and “Auto-detect proxy settings for this network”, nah-ah.
• Tried to disable DNS in Firefox's settings, no siree.
• The console throws different warning and errors every time (that are probably even unrelated). Or none at all.
• Probably tried something I already forgot about.

Also, it seems the culprit is actually Akamai (it's where the Steam stores its media) or whatever is preventing reaching it. Because it often shows something like “Waiting for community.akamai.steamstatic.com...” in the status bar for a long time. It seems like the problem is within Firefox's settings, and it also looks like settings aren't synced across profiles (or at least some aren't, I definitely had to configure them on the new profile manually). Anyway, I am out of ideas and my butthurt thrust is about to deliver me to Uranus. Thanks for your attention!
