I want links that I open (in Firefox, from Firefox, like opening any normal link) to open in the same tab (unless otherwise specific, like a normal browser should work), and all links from other applications to open in a new tab.

Whenever I click a link, it overrides my current tab, even if I'm working on something important. Apps do not always make it obvious what might be a URL. Windows for instance LOVES to open up "support" links in your browser. Firefox also does this itself with its update function, it opens up its update notification by overwriting your previous tab.

This is a really, really basic feature that should really be a default setting, but it doesn't seem to exist in settings at all.

Hi there, I login to outlook and gmail every time I open firefox. I have chosen outlook as the default for clicking a link that opens email. And in my gmail tab it keeps asking me if I want to open it instead. Well no I don't but all I can click is "not now" and then it keeps pestering me every time I open firefox. Is there an option like "not ever, please go away"? How can I stop the question. Thanks for you time on this one.

OS: Windows 11 PRO and Windows 11 Home (both 64-bit) Firefox Version: 135.0

Recently set up a computer to use latest version of Firefox. Thought I could just copy and paste the files in the profile folder to the new computer. Found out that didn't work so deleted all the files in the profile folder on the new computer. Copied to a USB stick the Profiles folder on the old computer (according to instructions here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles). Pasted the folder to the Profiles folder on the new computer.

Attempted to start the Profile Manage without starting Firefox on the new computer in order to create a new profile and point it to the files just copied. This is where the problem occurs!

Regardless of what I type in the "Run" dialog box, Profile Manager will NOT open! After hitting Enter, it opens Firefox! I've tried typing all of the following in the "Run" space:

firefox.exe -P
firefox.exe -p
firefox.exe -ProfileManager

What am I doing wrong? Any help would certainly be appreciated1

Thanks.

Firefox is not allowing me to save bookmarks into my toolbar folders. Is there a limit as to how many can be saved into a toolbar folder? This has been going on for over a month now. I use a VPN. Is the VPN causing an issue?

Do you know of a mod that won't allow Youtube to have a resolution higher than 720p, including when embedded? I almost-always have Youtube at 480p when watching through their site. I noticed that when watching a video on another site and that it's embedding Youtube, that the resolution is higher > 480p and in those cases it's not rare to be > 720p.

I'd like a mod or setting so that when it's active that Youtube can't have a resolution higher than 720p, including when embedded. Any idea if there's something alike?

Thank you kindly for your help

1)Why did my "thumbnails" to linked stories on my firefox homepage stop loading yesterday? Still not getting them.

2) I received a message a while ago that I need to update firefox or ti will stop working properly. My questions are: - when do I have to update by? - when Microsoft sends me a required update (almost every 3 months or so) they have to restart my laptop ... that wipes out my bookmarks. Will that happen with a the firefox update? That's why I've been reluctant to update.

I do backup and re-enter my bookmarks from a USB drive and reload them after a restart ... but then I also have to reenter passwords for several regular sites and it's a pain in the ass.

Thank you in advance

When you rebranded the Firefox accounts to Mozilla accounts (or maybe during the close of relay??) I accidentally created a second account. How can I merge my accounts or just the account data?

I am auditing my accounts and my MFA codes so that is why I am now finally dealing with this.

Is there any process I can go through to take browsing history and bookmarks from one of my accounts and merge them into another one?

I could even create a new Firefox profile so that it's possible to export this data to import into the other profile, then sync.

If I manually import data, does it overwrite the old data or will they merge together?

Let me know what information you need from me.

Thank you

Hello,

Moving from an older Ubuntu 18.04 machine where Firefox is limited to version 113 to a newer machine running Mint 22 where the current version is 134.

I know how to transfer the profiles but I could not find any information on compatibility.

Would I need to install other versions before 134 to handle any changes?

Thank you
