I was using DuckDuckGo and it failed a connection, now trying to switch to Firefox as my browser. I still get confused about browsers and search engines, but I want to be able to connect to a website that did not function with DuckDuckGo, all of a sudden and for no reason I could figure out. I have Microsoft 365 Windows 11 (I think) on 1 laptop and Windows 10 on another laptop; I am trying to use the newer laptop with Windows 11 but not totally switched over.

My firefox automatically updated on January 14th. Since the update, it opens with the tool bar above/off the screen, the left side off the screen, and it doesn't allow me to scroll. If I go the the firefox icon at the bottom of the screen and click close window, I can sometimes get it to re-open normally and then leave it open for the balance of the day. I am running windows 11. My wife and I are have the same issue right after the update. Is there a fix on the way or a setting I can change to fix this.

Not as important but I want to get away from all things google. Right now my firefox is tied to a gmail account. To be void of google, do I need to completely take firefox off my computer and re-install with a new email account or can I transfer the account to a new email?

Appreciate your time Thanks so much for your help.

When I am on Facebook and I am viewing photos and I attempt to enlarge them for better viewing all i get is a black screen. I was not having this problem before. If I change browsers to Google Chrome or MSN I do not have this issue. I prefer to use Firefox as my default browser, I have not changed any settings that would affect this so I am not sure why this is happening only on Firefox!. Please assist. Thanks in advance.

H!

For a long time now, at least a year, I cannot change the sort priority for search results on Amazon. Whenever I try to change to any other sort method other than Featured, the page just reloads and switches right back to Featured results. It happens on all my computers. I know this is a Firefox issue because this doesn't happen when I search Amazon with Chrome or on the Amazon app.

Anyone got an idea what's going on here?

Support I am having problems accessing my accounts on certain web sites, I can access them with other browsers, just not Mozilla Firefox. The two main sites are: https://www.bigfishgames.com https://www.spectrum.net How do I solve this problem? Firefox has been my default Browser for two decades now, but if this problem continues it will not remain as the default. Michael

When I open Robert Reich's substack article of the day, I'm finding that whenever the comments, the word "Trump" is replaced by "Mr. Bully". One can see the original by opening repost. If it is one of my own comments I can open Edit and see the original. I asked Substack support about it and they say it isn't them and to check with my browser. OK, Firefox, is this a new "feature" of Firefox or someone hacking Firefox. Would you please look into this for me.

I have downloaded the mozilla extension " screen recorder". After giving all permissions , the logo of this extension is not showing on my screen .SO, I am not able to use this extension facility. Please solve it. And also I have been blocked for accessing this extension owner' s website. THANK YOU. OM PRAKASH GUPTA

See attached screenshot. It just randomly happens from time to time, and I can't figure out what's causing it. I've used both Chrome and Firefox with the same results. Help!

Hi, I'm having some issues with Firefox. I'm opening a website (which I usually visit) even slower than with Tor at the same time. I'd love to know why and how to fix it.
