I-Firefox Community Forum

Hello. How do I do if I want Firefox to open a new window every time I click on the icon? I tried to insert the command "-new-window URL", which used to work before but it doesn´t anymore. Is there anybody out there who knows something about this?

Hi Mozilla Firefox team,

I saw that you added the option to select wallpapers for the New tab page, I really like that and I've been waiting for this feature for so long, but there are only a plethora of pre-selected wallpapers that you can choose from. Why not add the option for the user to upload and use there own image as a wallpaper? Or even option for the users to upload their wallpapers similar to how the "Themes" work.

Thanks for taking me into consideration!

How come i dont see my recent history in each new tab i open ???

I mean all the site i just visited already listed and showed on each new tab you open, this is so obvious i still dont understand how come it is not an automatic setting.

Can someone tell me how i can set this on firefox please.

I have run across threads with similar questions in both mozilla support and reddit, but as they are old and archived I cannot add additional info or request clarification, so here is (yet another) new one- I understand you can go into manage data in settings to delete what you want, however in mine it only shows a handful of most recent (opened today or currently open) since my settings clears history and deletes cookies upon exiting ff.

Cookies and Site Data section shows only 40.7mb of data is stored and in Manage Data only shows 8 sites... Clear Data area, with only these two boxes selected (attached) and 'everything' (time) still only around 50mb. My storage/default folder has 1005 folders and the data is over 1.5gb; I would like to manually delete all of this and as others have tried to ask, am wondering if this is ok to manually select them and delete in windows, or using windows %appdata%(?) and if so, will the sync feature (if I just clicked 'sync now') still retain all my bookmarks when I relaunch ff? Not concerned about any browsing/form history or passwords, only bookmarks.

Hello, I would like to create shortcuts that I can type into the address bar and go to a specific website/url. In chrome I used a function that looked something like the image I uploaded. I don't know if Firefox has this function, I couldn't find it

Is there somebody to answer my questions please? For the first site, it is impossible to have the PDF document when clicking the button. For the second, when I click to the "buy tickets" button, it doesn't work. What's wrong with the Firefox navigator????????????? Thank you.

Les sites suivants ne fonctionnent plus sur mon navigateur Firefox. Est-ce normal? Merci.

Will not store any history or let me add a bookmarks or use my bookmarks. The bookmarks globe is still there but nothing works after restart of my computer. I have tried a few more restarts and still nothing is working, have tried the fix posted for another user but still nothing.

Hi there!

Is there a way to define the view in which pdf files are opened by default?

When I open a pdf file it opens in "Automatic Zoom." Is it possible to set pdf's to open in "page width" or a different zoom setting?

Kind regards

How to change home page and new tab to desired URL or any extension of Firefox desktop in 2025?

I am unable to find any way to change how my new tab should look when I click + sign or new tab is opened up on browser opening or re-opening unlike Chrome.

I hate the change of position of typing from the search bar on the current new tab to the URL bar (unseen or unheard in Chrome) that Firefox implemented without considering users who would detest it.

Using Firefox 131.0.3 (64-bit)

I downloaded Firefox and went to identify my default browser, my Dell has a drop-down menu to ID the default search engine however Firefox is not there. How can I add Firefox to that drop-down?

Recently installed updated Firefox (131.0.3). Lost ability to print simplified version. If I go to troubleshoot mode the option shows up, but I have no add ins, extensions, or anything. The only change to browser function I've done is homepage and clear history after Firefox closes. Something is goofy here. I deleted and reinstalled Firefox with no change to condition.

I need to enable Javascript. This problem began with the latest update 152.02. Last Pass needs it. So does ID me. I have tried about:config and javascript.enabled (true). Apparently it is not so. The computer is an HP Pro 3500 series MP Windows 10. I hope someone can help. Thanks.

In the previous version of Firefox I could install a multiple language keyboard layouts in the upper right row. I had to reset everything with a new HDD and Ubuntu 24, which comes with Firefox for Linux as well. Now I can't find how to install those shortcuts that I had before. I need to use Slovenian, Italian, Spanish, German and US keyboards (UK is standard with UK English as primary choice). Thank you for your help.

I need to search for more than one search term in about:config. How can I do this?

Is there some kind of syntax I can use like the pipe symbol to do something like oneword|anotherword or do I have to know literally the exact thing I'm looking for before looking?

thanks in advance

Suddenly Firefox is downloading my downloads to google drive. Why? I want them in my download directory, but changing the options in Settings/General/Download makes no difference. It is set to ask where a file should go, but does not. It is set to ask whether to open or save a file and it does not!

How can I get google drive out of this and save them to my desktop again?
