HI,

Half the time when I go to a website like Google Flights or something to do with Google it just automatically brings me to my employer's website like to sign in and use the Google tools there. I don't even work for them anymore and I don't know how to get rid of it automatically wanting me to go there. It won't even let me use Google Flights because it says it not supported by my employer. Thanks.

I frequently have the problem of accidentally detaching tabs when I am trying to drag them left and right to reorder them. The interface seems more sensitive than I would like. The unwanted detaching of tabs happens to me many times a day and is jarring and causes me to lose a lot of time trying to put the tabs back. I would like the interface to be less sensitive, i.e. to make me drag it much farther up or down in order to detach the tab. If the feature to fine-tune the sensitivity of the tab-break-off is not implemented, I want the ability to turn it off, so that I can reorder tabs by dragging them left and right without having to worry about them detaching.

I searched and found an 8-year-old request from another user for the same thing, and it had been closed, and linking the user to third-party extensions adding this functionality. However, the extensions were not monitored by Mozilla for security.

This was a non-solution to me. I want this solution either to be built-into the browser, or to be offered in an extension that is monitored for security by the official team.

I opened my Firefox this morning just to be greated with a pop-up that said something like "do you want to refresh Firefox" I clicked no but i guess it didn't care because it refreshed it anyways. Post-refresh my Firefox was blank with none of the settings and custom css it had before. I then tried to fix it by pasting all of the contents from my 'Old Firefox Data' file into where they would be in this new one. Long story short, I tried to open Firefox and all that comes up is "Profile Missing, Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It is missing or inaccessable". I just want everything I had before how do I put it in? I've attached screenshots of the error, Old Firefox Data, and Profiles. I'd be very thankful if anyone can help because i just really want all of my data back

Firefox will not open this website (it is my personal photography website.) I'm using Windows 7 64 bit. Seemingly, every other website, but this one will open using Firefox. I have always been able, to use Microsoft's browser, to open this website, except, now, they no longer support W7/64. Thanks, for any help, David Johnson

On fresh Firefox install that I setup using [https://mozilla.github.io/policy-temp.../#preferences|preferences] Which is option to disable those default ads?

Namely: twitter, youtube, facebook, Wikipedia and reddit.

I know I can do it manually with 5 x 2 clicks but that's 10 click every time I install browser.

I want to figure out how to log into to my bank without triggering 2FA every single time.

At the moment, if I log in and tick the "stay logged in" box, complete the 2FA, tick the "remember this device" box, I still have to log in two hours later, and go through the whole rigamarole again.

I assume this is some cookie setting of my own doing, but I don't know what I did.

I have Firefox using the "Standard' setting to balance protection and performance at <about:preferences#privacy>

Here's what I've tried:

  • I added the URL to "exceptions for enhanced tracking protection"
  • I added a specific exception to "cookies and site data" to specify that the site can "Always" allow cookies.

Just now, I removed all of my existing cookies for the site, in case I set some cookie previously that is telling it to never track anything. But if that doesn't work, is there anything I can do to ensure that the bank will actually remember that I did successfully complete 2FA in this browser already today?
