Hello. I have two questions about settings. 1. I want to hide the "Take Screenshot" option from the Firefox right-click menu. 2. I want to hide the "Original Profile" option from the options that appear when you click the Firefox hamburger menu.

I'm asking about these two points. 1. I'm trying to hide the "Take Screenshot" option, but I couldn't find a solution even after searching. about:config ↓ extensions.screenshots.disabled ↓ From true to false ↓ Even restarting Firefox didn't hide the "Take Screenshot" option. 2. Regarding hiding the "Original Profile," I can't find any information about this option, so is it impossible to hide it? I'm asking about these two points.

Hello,

I am having an issue where my google account half logs out after every session. My gmail remains logged in, but google search does not. Google drive (and this is the main issue), is stuck so that it can see the files of my account, but insists I'm not signed in.

When I attempt to login and retry nothing happens and it remains in the loop. Before today I have been able to open documents only accessible when signed in on google drive by going to the direct link. This is now intermittantly thinking I am not signed in but mostly working.

Things I have tried:

  • Troubleshoot mode does not fix this problem.
  • My firefox is up to date.
  • I have seen this with no extensions or ad blockers.
  • I have seen this both with and without cookies from google allowed.
  • Screenshots attached from when I talked through this with google support. They said it was a problem on your end and can't do anything.
  • This can be solved by logging out of all accounts and back in. But this is not an acceptable solution.

I set the about:config settings when I got the new computer early last year. It's been working fine. Suddenly, searches are popping up again to the urlbar.

browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar is still set to false. Keyword.enabled is still set to false.

I see a couple of site references to browser.fixup.alternate.enabled, but it doesn't exist.

How do I get FF back to proper search in the search bar?

After a re-start, my Firefox browser on a Dell laptop lost all history and has since also not been collecting websites visited. When opening a new tab, the shortcuts and recently visited websites are also gone and no longer being collected. My CCleaner recently updated itself to a new version but I unchecked the delete history for Firefox (which treacherously is clicked by default - I fell into that trap before). Happy to blame the new CCleaner but that would not explain why history is not being collected now - to me the fault seems to lie with Firefox instead. Another possibility that went through my mind: Is Microsoft sabotaging users of Windows 11 to force them to buy new? PS: Under "Privacy", "History", the setting is "Firefox will remember history", as it always has been and should be. But it has forgotten all previous history and it is no longer collecting any new history either!

I've been searching for three days now for a solution that will work to restore my profile from a crashed windows-7 machine to my new windows-11. Nothing listed in any forum or help desk works as described. I used to be able to just rename the folder to the exact file name on the new PC, but windows 11 won't let me do anything. It always needs admin permissions and even after I activated the admin account and assigned a password, I still cannot copy to the folder or rename the folder. Every attempt to do this on W-11 fails. It shouldn't be that hard and I'm tired of wasting days playing with this. I have important bookmarks, passwords etc. I want restored, and I need help. Nobody wants to pick up a phone anymore to assist!

I have never used "sync" because I have multiple PCs and each used for different applications and yes some go back to W-7, the operating system that actually worked well. Each PC has Firefox and a distinct bookmark file.

I went to "about:profiles" and created a new profile thinking I could copy to the new folder, but when i switched profiles I couldn't get back to the original default! HELP!

Hi All,

I was using the following CSS to hide the navigation images and show only text labels on the context menu for the Back, Forward, Reload and Bookmark Page menu options...

/* Content Area Context Menu - Navigation Vertical Text */
#context-navigation,
#context-navigation > menuitem{
  flex-direction: column !important;
}
/* hide images */
#context-back image, #context-forward image,
#context-reload image, #context-stop image,
#context-bookmarkpage image{
   display: none !important;
}
/* show text labels */
#context-back:after, #context-forward:after,
#context-reload:after, #context-stop:after,
#context-bookmarkpage:after{
   content: attr(aria-label) !important;
   margin-inline-start: -19px !important; /* this pushes navigation text items to left, aligned with other menu items below */
}


It worked up until a couple of versions ago, but something has changed, and my CSS is now broken, and those navigation icons are back.

My context menu now looks like the attached image below.

Any help with showing only text labels on this menu is appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello, Randomly but frequently enough to be annoying, Firefox freezes my entire laptop. I have windows 11. It freezes so badly that I have to hold down the on/off button until it goes off. I looked it up outside of Firefox help and, per suggestions, turned off the hardware accelerator. That seemed to work for a little while but now it's happening again with greater frequency. There doesn't seem to be any exact situation that causes it which makes it very hard to diagnose. But it's enough that I'm thinking of looking for another browser so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

THIS IS NOT A WINDOWS ERROR; THIS IS A FIREFOX APPLICATION ERROR. MAYBE SOME OF YOUR FIREFOX DEVELOPER CODERS SHOULD ASSIST THE 32-BIT AND 64-BIT DEVELOPERS. OR, DUMP THE VERSION 4X CODE AND BUILD ON THE MORE STABLE 39X CODE. ALSO, DON'T BLAME WINDOWS FOR FIREFOX APPLICATION ERRORS. AND...NEVER SUGGEST A WINDOWS REINSTALL FOR FIREFOX ERRORS!!!

Hello,

The fonts are not rendering properly on few websites, example(apnetv.xyz), everything was working fine with stable release of v146.

The beta versions were having the same issue, i assumed it was related to Beta releases, so I switched back to stable one. However now firefox has released stable v147, the issue persists. Kindly fix it.
