Speech output for Albanian on the website "loecsen.com" > language course "Albanian". Words cannot be heard under Windows 11. What can I do? I downloaded the Albanian language pack, but the voice isn't there. Is this a Firefox or Windows problem?

Greetings from Switzerland

i created a second profile yesterday. after starting the pc today, firefox opened and was empty/clean looking into the about:profile it said that i have two profiles but both were empty/clean looking into appdate structure > profiles i found 5 profile folders i tried deleting the profiles.ini, it created a new one but with the same new profiles i restarted the pc and had again 2 new empty profiles i tried creating a new profile with an existing file path and now i have 8 profile folders restarting again didnt create new profiles then i tried the "clean firefox" function but all i have after the restart are the 3 empty profiles again

how can i open the old profiles, of which the folders still seem to be there?

i want to try vertical tabs to be able to see the tabs i have easier, and to be able to delete the ones i dont need anymore. but vertical tabs for some reason are unreadable. as in, the text does not show up unless you click on the tab.

is this a glitch? is there a way to fix this in settings or change the background or text color? (i think im running windows 10, if that factors into things. id love to not upgrade to 11 if i do not have to.)

I don't have, and think I never had, an authenticator app. So how is the replacement MacBook requiring 2-step authentication that requires an authentication app before I can sync to my Win 10 websites? I am new to the MacBook, and it would help to know if it has an authenticator app, and how to get it to work with Firefox.

For some reason all of my bookmarks are gone. I have tried all the suggested fixes and it's still not working. Don't know where they went but I would sure like to have them back. Plus, now when I try to bookmark a page its not accepting it. :(

About a half dozen favorites were shown on the tool bar but have now been reduced to two with a double arrow following which produces a dropdown menu which is filled with the rest of my bookmarks/favorites. Clicking on any of them produces a side menu. The Home-icon which used to be in the upper left corner now site in the middle of the bar, I don't know what has caused this change but I'd like it to go back the way it was. My default search engine is Yahoo.

As per the title...

If I access "mail.yahoo.com" (specifically the site in the screenshot) at all in a Firefox session, that session is no longer able to play videos, i.e. Youtube, Tiktok, or any other streaming videos.

The videos "break" in that the player loads, but the content does not load, and the player is stuck endlessly with the loading circle animation.

Video previews also don't play when mousing over the thumbnails.

This is solved only by restarting Firefox, i.e. in a totally new session. It cannot be circumvented by opening a Private Browsing session, or new window, or closing the Yahoo Mail tab.

This bug is reproducible in a new profile: i.e. I went to about:profiles, loaded a new profile and opened browser in that new profile, went to mail.yahoo.com in one tab, opened youtube.com in another tab, and none of the videos (or ads) played in that youtube tab.

This bug is reproducible in troubleshoot mode.

This bug does not occur in a different browser, e.g. Brave.

This bug only seems to have happened recently, possibly with one of the recent updates. Edit: I rolled back to 143.0.4 and it still occurs.

I pressed "Share Data" for the troubleshooting information but it's not appearing in the question... not sure if I should paste that wall of text...

I have been having a problem for weeks with Firefox where it keeps resetting my default search engine to Yahoo. I tried a lot of things, including looking through all my extensions for anything untoward and most recently refreshing Firefox. The problem remains active. I would really like to not have to keep resetting my search engine every day.

Post-refresh, I find that Firefox is opening new tabs from links on pages I visit. That one is a REAL pain to deal with. It seems to kick in more on commercial pages than other pages. How do I stop that one? I already appear to be clear of bad extensions and I already refreshed Firefox1
