I-Firefox Community Forum

Dear Team, I was asked to start an upload in Firefox. I tried that. I get the message 'Couldn't load XPCOM' What do I have to do to restart Firefox? It's urgently needed for account verification! Could this possibly be due to a lack of capacity? I currently have 371 MB of 111 KB available. I ask you to help me quickly - thank you very much.

Hello:

When I signed into my computer this morning, a pop-up asked me if I wanted Firefox to update. I let it do that, and then a pop-up came up letting choose among some photos and art for a desktop background. It even let me upload a photo of mine. I chose one of yours, now I can't change to any other photo I have on my computer. Please help.

Thank you,

Cynthia M.

You have invited me to download a new version of Firefox.

So What do I do with my existing Firefox?

If I don't like it, can I go back?

Please let me know.

If I have to restart my computers when I am in the middle of working because Firefox won't work unless I do, I will find another browser. And yes, I have it set to only update when the computer is not being used, but obviously that does work. Maybe give me the option to set a time to restart?! Like the middle of the night as opposed to the middle of a working day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really???????????

My C hard drive is almost full. How can I get Firefox to run from the D drive? I tried copying the files there but it would not run. Do I need to edit something in the Registry? I'm using (for as long as I can) Win 10 on a Dell desktop. Latest version of Firefox is installed.

Thanks for any assistance.

Today, when I went onto Vanguard, at the top of page it said my browser is not supported. However, Firefox says it is "up to date." It had already been changed to 115.24.0esr, as my macbook uses 10.13.6 High Sierra. Firefox says I am good and supported until August 1, 2025, but I am still getting the non-support message on the Vanguard site. Who is right?

Just updated to 139.0.1 and got a surprise. My New Tab Favorites Icons now have Push Pins in their upper left corners, leaving less space for the icons, so of course my icons are now smaller than before. Why do the people maintaining the system at Mozilla keep messing with the New Tabs? Last time, they thought they needed to include a large image of the Firefox icon, again shrinking the remaining screen real estate for my icons. That got fixed. Now they decided each favorite icon needs a rather large push pin to indicate that it belongs there. Somebody thought this would be a good idea? Why can't they just leave it alone?

I'm posting two screenshot images of my New Tab screen. You will know which is before and which is after.

So today I allowed an upgrade of FireFox to version 115.24.0.esr (64bit).

Now both extensions fail... uBlock Origin AND Proton Pass These were last updated May 27th and May 19th.

uBlock Origin manages to "pop up" a blank sub window.

Proton Pass starts an infinite loop displaying, then erasing itself and re-displaying:

Welcome to Proton Pass An error occurred while resuming your session Retry (button) Sign Out

Is there a way to go back to a previous version of FireFox?

So I just noticed after downloading the new update to Firefox, version 139.0.1 that something new came up in my task manager called Crashhelper. Never seen this before. Closed it down and it seemed to have no issues shutting down at least. I haven't had Firefox crash in recent months, so I'm assuming that this cropping up might be a glitch of some kind? I looked this up to see if anyone else had this issue, and it seems someone on Reddit did encounter this, on Linux, and another on Windows also seems to have run into it. How do we stop this from coming up whenever we start up the browser?

Your new update deleted all of my favorite bookmarks. Many of which were for business and special research. How do I recover them? They are beyond price. Their loss is a complete catastrophe!

After I restarted my Windows 11 last night at 6:38 EST, Firefox updated to 139. I lost all my open tabs and history, and I've lost a day of work dealing with this. Help!
