After I first got the message I uninstalled Ffox and reinstalled it. Same message. So I can't get to any ffox menu, or buttons because I only have the one page with the message.
One suggestion was to uninstall and delete "firefox program file" but I can't find any file with that name on the C drive Mozilla Firefox folders
What can I do?

When I shifted over to firefox, I set the home screen to display bookmarks, and my bookmarks weren't showing (only one, not sure why this was the chosen one).
I deleted them all, and then added them sequentially, and they all appeared and all seemed to work.
Now they've all dropped off again.
I don't have 'restore previous setting' selected (as a prior answer suggests would work, described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1253979). I sync my settings on my phone/surface pro/iMac.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

When I try to view any of the many videos that I have from Amazon, including the many that used to work fine, now cause a WidevineCDM crash error. I have rebooted, disabled all add-ons and rebooted again, tried private view session, and even removing the WideVineCdm folder and placing it on the desktop as someone in the community suggested to another person. I have reloaded Adobe FlashPlayer to ensure it was not a problem. Of course, when I called Amazon they were totally CLUELESS. Further Troubleshooting has narrowed it down to FireFox specific issue as the videos all work fine in Chrome, I.E. and Edge. Only in FireFox do they fail. I really do like FireFox and would like to keep using it--any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
How do I fix Firefox crashes whenever opening it after windows 10 update?
When trying to run Firefox, I get an error message. Image included. Reinstalling for 64-bit does not work.
Why do twitter links disappear after a few seconds from websites I am viewing?

OK so since I wasn't able to find a solution here and wanted to share the solution I found since so many folks seem to be having this issue despite so many of them being 'resolved' and 'archived' with non satisfactory solution, let me share what I found. This applies for those who have already tried these steps:
- If you can access the site that gives you this error in Firefox but no issues in another browser; - If you've cleared the cache and you still get the error; - If you've deleted all cookies and still get the error; - If you've tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode to temporarily disable your addons and still get the error,
Try this: - in the address bar type "about:serviceworkers"; a whole list of these hidden code/cookie snippets should appear in the page. I was shocked by the shear amount of them and their privacy implications >:-( - click "unregister" to remove them one by one - restart your browser.
After restarting, the problem disappeared. In my case, a corrupted 'serviceworker' was preventing me from accessing gmail.
Upon further reading, one learns that it's some kind of cache and that it helps accessing websites. Also, that it gets rebuilt as required. Finally, that this 'feature' can be disabled by turning the about:config value dom.serviceWorkers.enabled to false.
Hope this helps someone, and sorry if the formatting looks awful, I have no idea why my bulleted list doesn't show as it does in the editor.

Firefox is up to date. Windows 10 is up to date. Netflix video plays in all other browsers, IE 111, MS Edge, Chrome. It stopped playing in FF same time it stopped for the rest of the world about a year ago. I am tired of switching to another browser every time I go to Netflix. I have read other answers and they are all snippily saying that there is nothing wrong with FF but with settings in Windows 10. This doesn't fly because since Netflix video plays in ALL OTHER BROWSERS, this is a problem with FF not Windows 10. If FF would be so kind as to STOP being the bully in town ande conform to the same settings all other browsers use for playing Netflix video, this would be greatly appreciated. Meantime, instead of changing my Windows 10 settings to make FF happy over ALL OTHER BROWSERS, I will instead simply stop using , and convert solely to Chrome., If, in future, any of you scratch your heads and wonder why everyone fell away from FF remember these events. Goodbye.

I did a refresh of Firefox on my laptop (Windows) and all my logins disappeared. I tried moving key4.db and logins.json files as mentioned on the board from other folders on my laptop but the saved logins list resets to empty. That is no longer an option.
I am using sync with an android device which still has all the logins saved. Sync, however doesn't update my laptop to sync the devices. I really want these passwords back and could use some advice on hot to do that. I'm not sure why sync doesn't sync the two devices and yes I have synced both devices.

I've always love the fact that I could move all the tool bars and addy bar to the bottom of the window. First this it was a menu item, no it's broken. Then an addon, now it's broken. Then it was the .css file, now it's broken with 66. How do I go about moving everything back to the bottom of the window? Why can't Mozilla relize that a lot of their users love the customizing of where the tools and how the layout is done and stop breaking it??? Why can't we have the old drag and drop customizing back?

Menus on Firefox itself are displaying in my native language, when I've set them to English.
I've uninstalled all language packs that aren't English, even removed other languages in Windows settings to make sure Firefox displays menus in the language I want, but none of it worked. Already checked about:config and removed any traces of other languages. The settings page itself and other Mozilla webpages are all displaying in the correct language, but the application itself is not.
It started doing this after the most recent update, was working fine before. Only explanation is Firefox is using my location to set a language and completely ignoring my language settings. Should I just wait for it to be fixed?
