Greetings everyone,

I know this might be a strange question, but I'm completely serious as I've been feeling soooo much anxiety around it.

I need to download a couple hundred individual files.

My basic question is this: How can I verify that the files I download are 100% completed?

Is there any way for me to be 100% certain that the files I've downloaded have been successfully downloaded?

I'd really appreciate any advice.

I'm so far unable to transfer Firefox bookmarks and history from an older computer to a new one. I've tried to follow instructions on the support pages, but Firefox Library folder does not work as described in the articles. Can anybody help me? Tom

Hello.

When I use Firefox to open a .pdf file that is long and "heavy" (it's a 600 page book scan with OCR), searching with Ctrl+F gets sloppy. Searching clearly skips some of the appearances of the phrase. I compared the results with other .pdf readers as well as Chrome. The latter one, for example, brings 190 search results while Firefox makes it 172. With more specific search, it's 3 to 2 or sometimes 1 to none.

I believe the reason is that file doesn't load entirely upon opening - rather, it loads pages as I'm scrolling. Even though Firefox has some useful features as a .pdf reader that Chrome lacks, like two pages view, this flaw alone kind of kills it for some uses.

Is there any fix for this? Like maybe forcing Firefox to load an entire document at once?

Cheers, Rafał

Two weeks ago I reloaded Windows 10 because of a suspected malware infection. This required me to reload my apps. After reloading Firefox the custom icons have disappeared from some, but not all of the toolbar menu items. Why? Rather, a little globe appears, which I'm guessing is a default icon. -- Why did some of the icons disappear while others did not? -- How do I remove the "little globes" as they're just taking up space and have no meaning -- Where do the custom items come from?

For years, the dark theme I used would apply to all pages, including about:newtab and about:home. About a month ago, this stopped happening, and regardless of choosing a theme that turns the background of the about:home page dark, it reverts to a white background the next time the browser is started.

I also use an add-on called Dark Reader, which gives me some control over the background of most websites. This extension is where the information that the about:home page is "protected by browser". I have not tried disabling Dark Reader, yet.

On the Firefox Options page, under the Home tab, under New Windows and Tabs, the options for "New tabs" include only two (2) choices: Firefox Home (default), or Blank Page. The dark background works (i.e., sticks, holds, stays) on the blank page, but does not work for the Firefox Home (default), which is what I have chosen and prefer. I choose only Top Sites on the Firefox Home Content settings, which are displayed below the "New tabs" settings described above.

Any help in restoring the dark (or consistent theme color) to the Firefox Home or about:home page will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Would appreciate any insights so that I can continue to use Firefox - thanks!

As of today, no change to Firefox, it tries to open what appears a speed dial item in a new window. This is being done without any input from me. If I hover over task bar and close new window a new different one tries to open.

When I create a new folder in Firefox, it disappears. Where are they. When there were few, they would show up at the bottom of the bookmarks. Now, there is nothing there.

ALSO - How can I decide where a new folder goes?

Thank you

I have had this message from Bitdefender numerous times: "firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an unmatching security certificate to push.services.mozilla.com. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since the used certificate was issued for a different web address than the targeted one." What does this mean & what should I do about it?

Hi, I am visiting a site from my favorites and suddenly I am greeted with a red page urging me that this site has dangerous content and I should leave it? Why is that? There is an option to ignore the risk but I want this red screen disabled and not to see it again. How can I disable it and possibly even delete it from my computer?

In the settings I have unchecked this: Deceptive Content and Dangerous Software Protection Block dangerous and deceptive content

but still get the error. How can I disable this stupid page!

Hi! Good Evening!

I've received a mail from one of my client through wetransfer.com. Currently Mozilla is not allowing to visit and download files from wetransfer.com

Please Help.

Way too many crashes, odd window mashes, affects all open applications at times. Basically, Firefox is unusable after recent updates. On my laptop it also deleted all passwords - performed the guidance and it didn't work. After probably a decade or more I'm finalling going to leave Firefox to all of you - unless they can fix it by Friday 29th May.

password security is not there in this browser at all ,non technical one can also get vulnerable details of the user easily,when someone has set save password . supposed the gmail accc password is saved and then the user sign out of it, and try to log in again then passwprd is visible again, there should have been password attribute and password should not be visible unless the user enter system password or fingerprint auth, it is very serious issue i think
