As stated above, in win10 Firefox constantly freezes up. Sometimes closing and opening resolve for a while, other times not. Tried all the fixes, none worked. The freezing was more sporadic prior to the latest win10 update, much worse since. I have a win7 machine that never has problems. Both use Norton, both have same settings for browser and Norton security. Only difference is win10 vs win7. Hardware-wise the win10 machine has more resources, double the ram and an ssd, win7 machine less ram and hdd. The win10 machine should be better not worse.
What's the fix?

Morning,
I've recently switched back to Firefox (for Mac) after being away from Ff for a long time, and have been tinkering with my settings and whatnot to try and get things the way I would like them. I suspect, like most things, that I'm just missing something. ;-)
Basically, I don't want Ff to remember any autofill//form information, and I've got that working, but I would like it to be able to respect when a website allows you to click a radio button for "Remember <Me//This//Etc>". It does not seem to be doing that at the moment.
Does Ff have a setting that will let websites that you specifically click "Remember Me" be remembered, or is it an all or nothing?
Thanks!
why does Firefox access the floppy drive when opening and closing?

Multiple websites will not load properly in Firefox unless I am in private browsing. Some examples are netflix.com, xfinity.com, pinterest.com, and many others. Elements of the page will not load, or will not be functional. If I load the same pages in private browsing, it works fine.
Also, these same pages will work if I load them within a few minutes of launching the browser. An already open tab will usually continue to work, but if I open a new tab or reload after the initial few minutes, they stop working.

FF 66.0.3 (64-bit)
Cookie AutoDelete - I have checked "Localstorage Cleanup (Firefox 58+)?". But many sites remain - Cookies are deleted but storage persists. Or perhaps the Cookies listed are still there, even though it shows 0, because Data column still shows an amount.
In the developer's thread on GitHub, it is speculated that this is a FF issue:
"@pezz @planket2
I'm not sure how firefox displays the storage size completely, but based on my interpretation from the following screenshot, it's a firefox thing (or a bug on their end) and not a bug with this webextension itself."
https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete/issues/512
NOTE - JUST DISCOVERED - It's even worse - FF definitely is not clearing Cookies and Data -
I've just done the following 3 times with the same result each time:
FF: Cookies and Site Data / Manage Data / Remove All - Everything disappears. I close it, then reopen manage data - they are all back, including ones for which I am not on their site currently (no tabs open) - such as
www.theguardian.com 0 48.0 kb 17 hours ago www.facebook.com 0 48.0 KB 2 days ago secure.agoda.com 0 96.0 KB yesterday
NOTE - Facebook.com from 2 days ago reappears, although no tab open on facebook.com, I"m using Cookie AutoDelete, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin.
???
What to do?
Repeatedly occuring opening new tab and it does not start to load the page only after long time.
Started while back now too annoying already
Firefox starts without extensions when triggered from third-party application (Windows 10 64-bit). How come?

Hi,
First off, I must say that this behavior happens with both the installed and portable versions of the latest stable 32-bit Firefox: when I click on a link in, say, Thunderbird, and Firefox is not running yet, it opens a new window with no addons, as though from a new, clean profile, instead of resuming where I left off when I last closed it, as I set it to do.
I can't for the life of me understands why that happens. It seems as though I have two different versions of Firefox (I'm certain that's not the case...), one that I start manually when I need to browse the Web, and another one that would be triggered by third-party apps, the two not sharing the same profile, of which I'm sure I have created only one.
I thought it could have to do with the fact that Portable Firefox comes in a 32-bit/64-bit package, with the third-party app starting the launcher instead of the 32-bit executable, but I've now deleted the 64-bit folder in Portable Firefox altogether, so that can't be it.
Where does that strange behavior come from?!

I have Firefox ESR 52.7 installed. The whole purpose for having an extended release version of Firefox is to make sure extensions which no longer work with newer versions of Firefox will continue to work.
Yeah, so I've read that extensions that do not have up-to-date certificates will be disabled. But for goodness sake, this should not impact ESR versions!! And I want those extensions back. Will this be fixed?? I cannot live without my AdBlocker!
Not a happy camper.

When adding a bookmark, I often have to find the right folder to categorise the link, which often requires a lot of looking around the folder structure. This is made much harder by the limited size of the bookmarks box as it is. Is there a way to change it, or make in variable?

Hi, Following the advice of a Mod, I updated to Firefox 66.0.5. Now in my e-mail, e-mails from Nintendo don't show images at all (see screenshot). Going through all possible official and unofficial guides, nothing helped, as most guides say click on the lock and "disable protection for now" button, but this new Firefox version doesn't have such options. Today I also noticed on the streaming platform Twitch, where small "treasure chest" images should pop up from time to time through an extension, the image was completely black (should be of a treasure chest). This bug is not present on any other updated browsers, a viewer on Chrome confirmed he sees them normally. Articles read that didn't help: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-tell-if-my-connection-is-secure https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mixed-content-blocking-firefox In Privacy and Settings I toggled everything on and off and issue still persists. I will try to figure out if this is E-Mail provider issue or not, I will try to post a screenshot about Twitch and the black image in the next days as well. Thank you.

Hello,
For some time now, Firefox has not opened pdf files (with adobe reader) in the browser. Then, the pdf files open separately via the adobe application. The "built-in PDF viewer" (from firefox) works correctly but I can no longer find the option "send as attached file". Is there an alternative with the Integrated pdf viewer? Thank you very much.

Hello Mozillians!
I recently downloaded and ran the Firefox installer, to fix the Add-on problem.
Since then, Windows 10 start menu shows a ghost or phantom "Firefox Desktop app" when I open it and start to type "f i r e . . ."
Before, A single "f" would bring up the live application, and I'd be on my way. Now even the full "firefox" fails to find the actual application.
It still shows as a "new" app, and I can access it that way, but I'd like to fix this. (I expect "new" will soon fade, and then it'll be gone.)
(Also, a sub problem: image upload in this form says "Uploading ..." but the spinning wheel hasn't stopped.)
Thanks!

I have developed an Intranet application that uses Windows Authentication. It works correctly in IE, Edge and Chrome. It does the windows authentication properly in Firefox. The only problem is that the login box is displayed, the application loads properly in the background and if you hit Cancel from the login box it goes away until you restart Firefox and there it is again! I have tried all the answers about adding my sites to the trusted uris in the about:config app. To make things even more weird, on my development machine, the login box does not show up, which is the desired behavior. As far as I know, I have duplicated all the appropriate settings to a client machine, but the login box still appears. What am I missing?

Hi,
I don't want that firefox check for new versions every time I start it. I set to false any update.enabled within about:config, but firefox preferences "Vérifier l’existence de mises à jour, mais vous laisser décider de leur installation" is always set. This is also a security problem, and furthermore the dialog box saying that a new version is available is often displayed (grrrr) which is very disturbating, as now because the focus is set to this dialog box when I was writting to you...
I hope there is a solution to this big problem

I'm running Firefox 66.0.5 on Windows 10 Home, Version 1809. I've been seeing the following event log issues for months and have finally found the issues occur when Firefox accesses sites with "Render Mode: Quirks mode" such as https://money.cnn.com/data/markets/.
The following error occurs twice in the system log and the source is Microsoft-Windows-DistributedCOM. The PID shows it is a Host Process for Windows Services running under the Network Service user:
The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {2593F8B9-4EAF-457C-B68A-50F6B8EA6B54}
and APPID

to the user xxxxx\xx SID (S-1-5-21-xxxxxx
-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxx) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC) running in the application container Unavailable SID (Unavailable). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.
At the same time, the following is generated in "Microsoft-Windows-AppXDeploymentServer/Operational"
First: Starting validation and setting the Trust Label on package Microsoft.VP9VideoExtensions_1.0.20952.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe with flags 0x3.
Second: Package Microsoft.VP9VideoExtensions_1.0.20952.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe has Trust Label already. Flags: 0x3
Third: Finished validation and setting the Trust Label on package Microsoft.VP9VideoExtensions_1.0.20952.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe with flags 0x3.
If I use IE, instead of Firefox, I still get event log entries but they are different:
First: DllHost (5100,D,35) Internet_NOEDP_LEGACY_IDB: Error -1919 validating header page on flush map file "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Indexed DB\Internet.jfm".

Since this issue with Firefox is creating about 50 to 100 system errors per day, I've tried to resolve it in multiple ways. Making changes in Component Services will not have any affect. Also, under Internet Options, select Advance. Under Multimedia, uncheck "Enable alernative codecs in HTML5 media elements* - This also has no affect.
I understand what Quirks mode is, so I know I cannot change how developers create their web pages. Does anybody have any suggestions on what I can to do mitigate the errors in the System event log?
