For the past few days every time I closeFirefox a page appears about myTemp.email. I have never requested this and certainly don't want it. This only happens with Firefox and not with other browsers that I use. Is this malware embedded somewhere in Firefox code and how can it be removed? I am using FF 102.11.0esr (64-bit) on Ubuntu. Derek

Is it possible to restore previously deleted pages in FF history? There are instructions for FF in Windows but I am using Ubuntu 16.04 esm and the FF version is 102.10.0esr.

The pages were deleted  several days ago and the computer has been shut down and rebooted many times since then.

If it is possible doesn't that defeat the object of deleting history pages?

Hope someone has an idea! Derek

I see some strange behavior of Firefox history sometimes. The situation is as follows. I open a lot of tabs (I have to have hundreds of open tabs sometimes). Then at some moment I delete all history for all time. In old times, if I switch to whatever tab after clearing all history, the left arrow in my Firefox window was greyed out. If I right-clicked on that left arrow, I saw nothing, and if I pressed Alt + left arrow on my keyboard, nothing would happen. All those things were logical, because I had my history cleared. However, in the recent years this behavior has changed. In most tabs I still see the old behavior. Sometimes, however, I switch to some tab and I see that the left arrow is not greyed out; if I right-click on it, I see a list of several pages I visited earlier. In a similar way, if I press Alt + left arrow on my keyboard, I can go through pages in that list. I.e., the history for that particular tab (or several tabs, out of many) seems to persist when I clear all of my history. Any comments much appreciated. I get a vague impression that maybe those tabs were "sleeping" somehow when I cleared my history, and now they "wake up" with their part of the whole history still remaining in place.

Every time I try to go to a .onion site I get a message saying "you are trying to reach an onion/hidden service. To access (site) via web you will have to use the tor browser" but I am on tor browser.

How can I fix Firefox so that I can log into my account with CareCredit, mysynchrony.com or carecredit.com? I keep getting an error message. I can log in fine using Safari but I prefer Firefox. Thanks.

Dear Firefox, I recently just created a password on March 1-2023...Changed it on 3/5/23. browser history showed more than 20 entries in my email and switch ??? Switching stuff...!!! what I know is this! Facts my identity stolen, iPhone with same phone number recently found through Google...a vechile attached to my digital key pass biometics, apps within apps that are and have been controlling my device through Samsung, Google, Verizon and Microsoft. All my browser settings changed again!! I took a screen recording...just took screen shot of that to send. they are tapped into nearby devices all these settings I can not change. as I woke up to air command and settings in my phone device changed again!!! I really don't know how to stop this! I showed A state Trooper 5 pages of traveling addresses and a list of contacts just recently and all Heck has broke loose again...whomever has that vechile attached to my digital key is fairly local! I took a Screenshot of that...hit browse showed different...someone used this earlier and it was not me!!! This is not funny and whomever thinks it's funny to gang stalk and purposely cyber bully one person all because I saw these crimes and started seeking help and reporting them to the officials! this is a crime! and it has to stop!

How do I hack Firefox Mobile to set the "Desktop Site" switch to automatically always be on? I would then turn it off manually for those few sites that I want to view the mobile version of?

I've been 99% successful at switching over from Chrome to Firefox, however a major hiccup is that Gmail stops loading on Firefox, though it works on all other browsers just fine.

If I manage to actually open Gmail, I will be able to browse for about 20 seconds before getting an error message that says Gmail is having a problem and to 'refresh to retry' - clicking refresh will make the page crash and show only a white screen. From then onwards, even trying to open Gmail in another tab will not actually redirect you from the current page you are on. It will just update the address bar to say "https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox", however the browser doesn't actually load anything, and the 'refresh' icon shows that nothing is even in the works buffering.

Searching forums shows many people having this issue, and the only effective fix is to clear your cache and refresh the page. Unfortunately, while this technically works in the short-term, it is only a matter of time (sometimes under 5 minutes) before it crashes again.

As you can imagine, this it really limits productivity - it's hard to get on a roll when you have to keep stopping every couple of minutes to re-attach the wheels.

Forums show that this issue has been happening to users for years, and unfortunately nobody has been able to offer a long term solution, leading me to have to use a seperate browser just to access my emails. One user suggested switching away to a completely different email server such as Protonmail and ditching Gmail entirely but 1. that is comically inconvenient advice, 2. not viable as an organisation I volunteer with uses gmail, and 3. doesn't help fix the actual issue in the first place, which many users besides myself are facing.

Is anybody able to offer a reliable fix for this? Is there a browser extention that is causing the issue, or one that can fix it?

All help would be greatly appreciated as I find this issue to be a huge source of frustration from a browser that I am otherwise quite happy with.

I understand that the following is necessary as described in the FAQ. I lost my two-step authentication device, can’t find my backup authentication codes and don’t have a logged-in device. Can I request to delete my Firefox Account?

Is it possible to remove the backup account related to such a locked-out account to allow that account to be associated with the new account created?

Note that the Authy locked account has been abandoned on Firefox for a long time. Not certain if there is a limit time-frame of no account access after which the account may be declared abandoned and may therefore have the backup account unlocked for a new account association to the backup account.

how do i stop firefox opening my pdf files. i have set adobe as my default yet it still keeps using firefox. I have also changed the settings in adobe, without success. I will stop using firefox if this cannot be fixed. it drive me nuts

For the last week or two I have had an issue with Firefox closing my email (yahoo business mail) tab automatically, every time I download a file from an email.

After opening emial I click to download the file, i have the settings set to ask where I want it saved, and then either while I'm selecting the destination and labeling it, or right after the tab automatically closes. It happens both ways which suggests to me it's occurring after a specified amount of time, not based on completion of an action. And it's happening every time.

MacBook Pro Firefox 102.0.1

Any idea how to stop this?

I am unable to print an email in Firefox ESR 102.6.0 since the last update. Worked on previous version. When I click on the printer symbol a screen opens and a wheel just keeps going around and around and says 'Preparing Preview' with no resolution. Tnx

Hello, I recently updated my Firefox, & ever since then when I would try to access windows explorer -mostly by opening the download folder- through Firefox I would get an error saying that the action wasn't supported or something, so i just went there manually. Recently, it won't even show that error when trying to access downloads (it simply does nothing), & I have been having problems with windows explorer not opening when double clicking on the icon every so often; requiring a reset to fix it.

I was wondering if these are somehow related, & whether Firefox or something else was the problem. I've ran all the system scans that Windows recommended, but found no problems. Can you verify if this is a Firefox problem or other issue?

Also, I blocked my username for security purposes, hope that's not a problem

Bonjour, Je travaille dans un musée. Nous utilisons Firefox sur des pc accessibles pour le public. Comment accéder à "aboutNetErrorCodes.js" pour l'éditer. Je souhaite remplacer le message par défaut de Firefox et rediriger vers une une page en local. Merci pour votre aide. Yves
