How to completely disable Google translator pop-up

Hi there!

I have the issue that when I enter a website that is in English, I sometimes get a little Google translator pop-up at the top which asks me to translate the page. As I am fully fluent in English, I would like to disable this but the option "Disable for English" does not seem to do anything, as this keeps happening. I can disable it for an individual website but I would like to disable it completely.

I'm also confused because within Firefox I have only selected US English as a preferred language. My laptop itself is set to German.

I don't have any translator add-ons installed and can't figure out where this pop-up even comes from, let alone how to fully disable it.

If anyone could help, I'd be very grateful!

Anne

I no longer see a box that contains a variety of search engine choices. I have been using DuckDuckGo and am very dissatisfied with it now. I'd love to know which one(s) people recommend (not google, bing etc, please!) and what the steps are now to changing DDG as my default to this new one? Many thanks (I'm a senior and quite computer literate unless the reply contains tech language I might not understand...)

I was checking to make sure I was using the correct version of Firefox browser. I ended up on a page that stated "It looks like you haven’t started Firefox in a while. Do you want to clean it up for a fresh, like-new experience? And by the way, welcome back!" It went on to ask if I would like to Refresh Firefox, just like it was brand new.

In the Menu option on any Firefox page I can get on it states: "Account Disconnected". I have been using Firefox just about every day for 3 years. What is going on. I didn't dare click on the "Refresh Firefox" tab because I have no idea what will happen. Will I lose everything, bookmarks, settings, etc.?

Please help

Did the file Upload?

My sidebar used to always come up showing "history." Now the default seems to be "bookmarks." I know I can toggle down to "history," but I often forget to do that and click on a bookmark, thinking I was going to my most recent use of that bookmark. Is there a way to set the sidebar just to "history" again?

When opening my Firefox browser the LastPass icon in the upper right corner remains black with 3 white dots, not functioning. On other browsers the LastPass icon turns red, functioning. How can I get the LastPass to function? I have been forced to use Edge as my primary browser where I prefer to use Firefox. Please help.

I've downloaded a couple of add-ons this week that did not do what they claim to do, so I wanted to leave reviews so other users won't waste their time. Except when i got to do so, i am surprised to see that therte is no clear way to write a review for an add-on. I am logged into the add-ons page, i can view the previous reviews for the add-on, but nowhere does it inticate how I can leave a review. Google led me to the Mozilla add-ons wiki which states "You can complete most of the review using the reviewer tools at addons.mozilla.org" except there is no indication to where one can locate these "reviewer tools." Seems a bit funny to me that Mozilla would choose to hide the functionality and make it so difficult to use.

Any help is appreciated.

In settings, the application for opening pdf files defaults to Open in Firefox. I change it to save file. Close re-open. Firefox opens all pdf files in Firefox browser. I try reboot. Firefox opens all pdf files in Firefox browser.

I update and reboot. Same thing. Always opens in Firefox browser.

I change it to open with default application, close and reopen and verify settings say to use default application. (When I open a pdf in Nemo or Catfish, it defaults to XReader.) Firefox still opens pdf files in Firefox. I close and reboot. Same thing.

This version 102.0.1 (64bit) appears to have opening pdf files hard coded into the browser.

Good day,

I have appointments that utilize Microsoft Teams for the sessions. On my desktop PC (Windows 10) and my wife's laptop (also Windows 10) the links open up the Teams app, and things work well. However on my new laptop (Windows 11, not my choice) the links open up inside of the browser and ALSO don't acknowledge the existence of the webcam, despite my telling the browser to work with it. Teams is installed on the computer.

Could someone please help me to either (or both) get teams to open in the application or get firefox to acknowledge that my webcam exists (other programs do work with it).

Thanks, Joe

I removed the login for id.logi.com and www.logitech.com but the webpage login prompt for id.logi.com that opens their Logitech Options application in Windows doesn't present me with the prompt to enter my login info but still opens the app without logging me in confirmed by the app that I'm not logged in.

When I click to login to the www.logitech.com site I'm also not presented with the username/password prompt butt I am automatically logged in.

After being logged in via the website, now the Logitech Options app shows me logged in while the webpage that launches the app wouldn't log me in but still opened the app.

Clearing site data and cookies for id.logi.com and www.logitech.com didn't fix the problem. How can I not login on one page and be able to login on another page both without a login prompt?

Is there an option to restore not just the previous session, but the session before that?

It seems it wipes everything on each close, I figure that might be a security feature, but it would be really helpful if there was a plugin/add-on or better yet an option to keep session up to X amount. Since firefox is my default broswer sometimes I will open a link thru an app and close it, forgetting that it will delete my previous session. Then it is impossible to open up those tabs again as I keep them open for a while.

Please let me know if there is an easy solution to this.

Sincerely, Dylan I
