I have updated the Firefox to 133.0 (Build #2016056951), hg-24fce2fbde95+GV: 133.0-20241118181856n AS: 133.0. When I open new tab, and open any website, the default is set to "Desktop Mode", how do I reset it to normal default mode?

Firefox consumes almost 2Gb of RAM with only one tab open. I find this surprising, and it's a major performance issue for me.

Do you have an explanation or solutions to reduce this memory overconsumption?

For a while now i click on a username box and the drop down menu is full of links relating to the site e.g when i use reddit, the username drop down menu is full of links i have copied in the past and usernames from other sites.

I often receive a 403 error when using Firefox Every time, before this happens, I get the unsafe website warning and then the 403 error when I continue anyway

I am using the latest version at the time of writing These errors only occur on my desktop PC I have tried to replicate this issue on both my phone (Android) and another laptop(Windows 11) but all the websites work normally on there.

I have tried the following, none of which have any effect:

• Clearing cookies
• using Troubleshoot mode
• Restarting
• Changing Useragent
• Using "Forget about this site"

The following do fix the issue

• Using a VPN
• Using Google Chrome
• Running Firefox in another profile

Going through the privacy and security tab and reseting all the settings sometimes works but only temporarily

The following are a few websites where the issue occurs

1. https://kdice.com/
2. https://latinitium.com/

4. https://opensource.org/

I am planning to buy a new computer to replace my current one. The new computer will have Windows 11 and the current one Windows 10. I notice the current Thunderbird files are located in C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird. I backup these files every day. When I install Thunderbird on the new computer, do I copy my backed up files to C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird BEFORE starting the Thunderbird application on my new computer for the first time? Will Thunderbird be able to locate all of my email accounts as well the current local files? Is there anything that I need to do and/or change? Thanks for your help.

I believe there is a memory leak (or memory growth) bug in Firefox 133.0 on Windows 10. It's site-specific. I am trying to login to my account at https://www.ssa.gov/, and it never actually gets to the login prompt. Using the Windows task manager, I can see the RAM usage keeps increasing, until it nears the 12 GB installed RAM capacity, at which time I kill the firefox process. I'd say this is a bug in ssa.gov, except the problem does not occur with the google chrome browser.

To provide further detail, I go to site https://www.ssa.gov/, and click on the "sign in" button. That takes me to the page where you choose the login method (id.me or login.gov) and I choose "id.me". It takes me to the "you are leaving Social Security's website " message, which is still on the ssa.gov website. At that point, firefox memory usage starts to increase, as shown in task manager. The browser never advances to the next page, but main memory usage keeps going up. This goes on for about 30 seconds before I have to kill the firefox process.

On some websites, namely GMX, the UK Guardian newspaper, Etsy and PatientAccess (there may be others), I cannot sign in using my login details. If I switch to Edge, using the same details, with the same laptop, my login works immediately. This also happens with a second laptop. I have tried clearing cache and cookies, but to no avail. Is there any setting I can change to allow me to sign in or do you have to fix your browser.

The version of Firefox is 133.0. Since installation, I have not changed any Firefox settings.

Cannot Log on to Costco.com site after update to Firefox 133.0 in Win 10 pro on 2 computers. Both are up-to-date with latest software.

Entering valid account and password cause the Costco logon page to freeze for a minute then returns to log on screen with no messages about failure

Same behavior on two computers. Log on to Costco via Microsoft Edge works perfectly (on 2 computers before any trouble shooting ). Logon with Firefox 133.0 works with every other site that I regularly use - Samsclub, Amazon, Yahoo mail, my own mail servers, NYtimes, WashingtonPost, Google, Walmart, and others

Trouble Shooting Steps taken with no change in the problem logon to Costco + Cleaned cache / cookies + Disabled virus protections + Disabled firewall + Stopped all security services + Rebooted + In settings | Privacy & Security: Added Costco.com as Exception for Enhanced Tracking protection + In settings | Privacy & Security: Added Costco.com as Exception - Cookies and Site Date

the following files couldn be attached outlook web Microsoft Outlook in firefox. Its files more 1 MByte. clearing the cache did not solve the problem. Outlook web in Microsoft Edge no problem with attach files Firefox version 133.0 (64-біт)

Google Drive says i am offline when i am not. Can move around the site, and it works fine on chrome, but not on firefox. Can also acces sheets just fine, and acces some files through there

tried contacting google, but since it was a firefox specific problem they could not help

Cannot open Analyst links on eTrade website. Looking at a particular stock and clicking on the Analysts link opens another window showing individual analysts and articles relating to their opinions of this stock. I cannot click on either the analyst's name nor the articles associated with their name. eTrade customer service says Firefox is not working well on their site. I tried Microsoft Edge and everything was fine. Is there some feature I should enable on Firefox or is this a shortcoming in Firefox?

My son's email messages are being blocked. As far as I know he is the only one. Also, when I try to open a site from the email function, it just keeps searching... This appeared about two weeks ago. I searched for "Blocked Email" and only one has been blocked; a conspicuous spam.

When I try to open my LastPass vault: https://lastpass.com/vault/ The "LastPass •••|" logo is displayed, but nothing further happens.

This page is being loaded correctly by Safari and by Google Chrome.

You guys ever going to get around to improving how to interact with bookmarks? When I have downtime during the day and I'd like to move my bookmarks around I can't! This has been an issue for a long time and I know others have asked. This is the one huge reason why I feel forced to use other browsers on my phone when not at home! Please get on this so I can just say on one browser for phone and home.

I just reinstalled FF because I was getting an XPCOM error message, and now, when I try to sign into my ATT.COM site, I get an error message that I can't get past; https://oidc.idp.clogin.att.com/mga/sps/oauth/oauth20/authorize?response_type=id_token&client_id=m14186&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.att.com%2Fmsapi%2Flogin%2Funauth%2Fservice%2Fv1%2Fhaloc%2Foidc%2Fredirect&state=from%3Dnx&scope=openid&response_mode=form_post&nonce=PUKPnPRT

Prior to reloading FF, I did not have this problem.

When I try and use canvas (https://canvas.oregonstate.edu/) the website is unusable. I tried clearing my history, and cache, but that didn't help much. This started after my Firefox updated

Today I Receive Mozilla Firefox 133(64Bit) Update. After Successful Update. My Open Tabs Are Not Loading. Also, Firefox Become Very Slow When I Surf Youtube Videos. Video Stuck But I Can Hear Audio. Taking Time To Load Videos. Its A Portable Version.

So the desktop setting keeps being enabled when I'm searching something it's enabled and I can unable it but what I'm in an site it cannot be disabled in any kind of sight that I tried

I can't see the download button on my Firefox settings. Where is the download button on Firefox? How can I download a picture or anything else into my phone using the Firefox browser?

Thanks
