Almost every time I open Firefox it asks to update. I always say yes. After the update, it can't open any sites. Sometimes I get a message saying Firefox is already open. When I check the Task Manager, there are usually several instances of Firefox open. After ending all open Firefox's, I still can't open sites, it just runs until it times out. If I run a registry cleaner, and delete any bad registry entries, then Firefox will load sites. I feel like my Firefox may be corrupted and entering bad registry code. Is there a 'fix' I can run to correct these errors, or should I delete my Firefox and download a new copy. This problem started a few updates ago. I have the most current copy of Firefox, Version 133.0.3 (64-bit). I am running it on:

Device name LAPTOP-C2UVEEFH Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8250U CPU @ 1.60GHz 1.80 GHz Installed RAM 12.0 GB (11.9 GB usable) Device ID A5C7A4A4-F05C-488D-83A2-151AC8C536DC Product ID 00325-80064-27654-AAOEM System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Pen and touch Touch support with 10 touch points

Thank you for any suggestions you can give me, Jerre Johnson jerrej1950@verizon.net

I am running Windows 11, with Firefox 97.0 ("Up To Date"), but the installer for the new 115 ESR does not work.

The installer (Firefox Setup 115.18.0.esr.exe) seems to think that my system is running Windows 7 and does not proceed.

After I did the 128.5.2esr update, none of my email accounts can get email with SSL/TLS on. It won't even try the server with SSL/TLS on. If I turn it off, then it can get mail. When I try to change to STARTTLS it will just hang showing checking server capabilities. Some accounts are imap and some POP3

Running Windows 10, version 22H2 updated 12/10/2024 OS Builds 19044.5247 and 19045.5247

Gmail works fine. I've tried the just about all of the things I have found online, but no luck.

Any suggestions? In the past I rolled back to a working version and that fixed it, but it hasn't worked this time. Would removing all of the certificates fix it? Didn't want to take that chance until I threw it out out here!

Thank you!

After a new update two days ago, Mozilla will not load. I get the error message: "ERROR: platform Version 133.0.3 is not compatible with miniVersion>=133.0 maxVersion<=133.0 Maybe try to install Firefox". When I klick the Mozilla icon nothing loads. I can't load any icon for a website. Prior to the update everything worked. I need Firefox working.

I received a msg from Mozilla that my Firefox was out of date and to download current version. I downloaded the current version but it does not update. I went to the menue and firefox help and it said automatic downloads disabled by system adminiestrator, I'm running linux mint. How do I get the download to update?

In older versions, there was an option to refuse updates, disable checking and any reminders.

In new versions, you kind of accidentally removed this option. And now a reminder "update update" and a green indicator regularly pop up in the right corner.

I previously deleted all Mozilla servers through the config file, disabled checking for updates. But it still restored the settings and now offers updates again - which irritates me terribly.

I supported Mozilla for many years and considered this browser to be something conservative, it has always been aloof from cumbersome and spyware browsers like Chrome. But your latest actions are disappointing.

The decision to update or not has always been and will be on the shoulders of the user.

I don't care about security policies, patches or bug fixes\Super new features.

With your actions, you only generate unnecessary negativity and lose the most loyal and old users. Today is the day when this browser will no longer be on my devices, you have achieved your goal - congratulations, you have won.

I just uploaded TB to my new computer. Now it seems to be downloading emails from years ago from Gmail. Help! I just wanted new email that I could choose to save on my computer. I did select Pop 3. I don't really know what I'm doing. Jean Green

I am about to set up a new Windows 11 laptop. The old one is a Win10 one, running Thunderbird 128.4.3 32-bit. Note I haven't upgraded to 5.2esr yet. My Thunderbird profile as recorded by Mozbackup is about 16GB - most of this is archived in Local Folders. I have 15 email accounts (using four different domains, none of them are gmail or hotmail etc) and a newsgroup.

I've looked at various answers (and problems!) around these factors and cannot see the wood for the trees. Can anybody tell me - or direct me to - a clear description of how to go about this? Some questions are:

1. Can I install 64-bit on the new laptop and copy over the old 32-bit profile? If not, is there any problem in continuing to use a 32 bit Thunderbird? I am getting a lot of hanging/not responding in the current TB. Note I haven't upgraded to 5.2esr yet.

2. How do I ensure that all the archived mail is transferred without problems? I haven't compacted anything lately, since I noticed that sometimes a message stub is retained where the message body seems to have disappeared, and that compacting risks deleting even the message stub, which can be useful.

3. I've been using MozBackup for ages now but it is really ancient - is there a more up-to-date backup that would be reliable?

Thanks in advance! I'm planning on do the new installations at the weekend but anything I can do to prepare would be useful to know!

Firefox auto updated when I opened it today. Then when it opened, all that was on the screen was the menu (file edit view history bookmarks tools help), the "search or enter address" box, and in the upper right hand corner the words "private browsing" with the purple circle and eye eyeglasses icon. That's all. I have tried looking at my profile. It seems to still be there. This seems to be a problem with the Firefox software itself. I have re-downloaded the software three times, the last time I uninstalled Firefox from my laptop and totally reinstalled. Every time I get the same results. This almost blank screen. Let me be clear. There is no purple background, there is no Firefox icon, there are no tabs, there is no customized menu bar, there is no search box in the middle of the screen. I'm working on a Windows 10 laptop 64 bit. Please don't tell me to upgrade the Windows 11, the laptop won't take Windows 11. I get the same window whether I open the regular fire fox or the private browsing Firefox.

Hi there, Im on a windows 10(ish) and yesterday got this problem after the auto update to firefox 133.0.3 - Update is not working. error window says platform version 133.0.3 is not compatible with minVersion >= 133.0... how can I fix this?

I've seen that there was a similar issue back in October with a previous version. Tried to follow instructions and reinstaled firefox from mozilla. But the problem is still there. Restarted after reinstalling and still getting the same error message. ((( Please help )))
