I-Firefox Community Forum

Hi,

I take a look to forums and docs but didn't find answer to it : just found informations about the use of firefox -P

Is there a way to change the defaults profile path.

For example, in the profiles.ini :

Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/be7er9lz.default Default=1

this is a relative path referring to %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\[PathVariableValue]

Is there a way to change a config file or config to customise the path for all users a windows computer ?

For example :

setting this variable to \\nameofserver\Firefox\

will made all relatives profiles looking for : \\nameofserver\Firefox\[PathVariableValue]

without this option, I should be obliged to edit all users profiles.ini to change path to absolute

Thanks for your help

(Title): VPN is not working on my laptop

(Description):

Hello, I installed a VPN on my laptop, but it is not working. I cannot connect to any servers. I have tried restarting my laptop and reinstalling the VPN, but the problem still exists. How can I fix this issue?

Thank you.

My account was probably hacked. I noticed this from an email I received from Mozilla. My account was logged in from Africa, which i noticed from the timezone because the email gives literally no detail. I logged into my account to kick them out but i found out i couldnt because the button didnt work. All the other kick buttons worked except the hackers. Mozilla has done nothing other than to email me.

When working hints on Ancestry.com, under certain conditions a second scrollbar is generated to the immediate left of the right hand scrollbar. This second scrollbar is used to move downward in the hint compare area on the right hand side of the open page. When running under Firefox on Windows 11 systems "this second scrollbar is not there"! Everything works fine using any other browsers (EDGE, Chrome, Brave), but not Firefox! Works fine on Windows 10 systems. I have tried this on 3 different Windows 11 computers with the same failed results.

I have have just come across this information and have no idea what add on it is referring to. I'm not one that uses much in the way off add ons. Here I am, 79 next month. I have only my desktop PC. I don't own/use a mobile phone, ipad or any other devices. I use my PC for emails and using the net for research, general information, buying products, ecards etc. I play a couple of games, Lovatts puzzles (3 games), jigzone, word wipe from Washington Post. If I have taken on/used an add on it was with limited knowledge and it certainly was not my intention to cause any problem. Does the block also mean that I am not protected from viruses or malware etc? Please let me know the outcome of your decision. Thanking you in advance. Kind regards, Rhonda Macrae. rhondamacrae46@gmail.com

hej, you write oh dear, no print is possible :-((( but you write to me, that I have win10... but it is a new machine with win 11...and firefox does not work, i cant se my mails?!?!!?

I'm expressing a strong dislike for the very shortened list of paper sizes in Firefox in the Print function.

One big reason I use Firefox over Chrome and MS Edge is the long list of paper sizes. Now the list is a small fraction of what was there. And how many people know what sizes are the likes of A4, B3, JIS-B4. It takes extra time to figure out what works best.

The old list with Letter Plus, Letter Extra, Legal Plus, etc. was MUCH MORE useful. If I were to eliminate anything, it would be the meaningless A5, B5, etc.

At least give us an option of the old or too short new list of paper sizes.

I use Xero accounting software and used to be able to view pdf within the software up until the recent update. Now it just sits with a spinning wheel. I've found that if I change the setting within Firefox to open the pdf within Firefox the issue is fixed in Xero. But then all pdf's open in Firefox instead of the usual Adobe. This breaks other workflows within my organisation as I need to email the pdf straight away when I download it, so my Windows was set with Adobe as the default for opening pdf's but now Firefox has taken that over. There does not appear to be any way to email the pdf from Firefox other than to save it and then find the file and email it from there which is very time consuming. I don't know what has changed in Firefox, but please can you fix it. I see I'm not the only person with this issue.

On Debian 12 running XFCE the shutter function in the top right orner is missing. This is a option like close, minimize, maximize that allows Linux GUI to only see the title bar, so it is out of the way of other screen applications. It is represented by the caret.

why i see this

Hi, I just installed the latest update (I think it's 136.0.2). I guess I skipped some/several versions. Suddenly my main menu isn't workin anymore (clicking it with the mouse, that is) There is some overlay which I can't find out, how to remove. Even the Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons don't have any function. Luckily I can still access the menu via keyboard shortcuts. How can I remove that overlay bar ... or did I catch some malware ?

I keep getting a pop-up for"sign documents online" in my Firefox browser. Several others have reported the same. It overlays the browser content so I can't use Firefox at all. My only option seems to be to uninstall Firefox and use a different browser. Is there a fix?

Apple cleaned but not Facebook and gmail because someone let me entering "viruses". Please help me to clean them. Please contact me. I don't have your coordinates. Thank you.

Over the past couple weeks of updates, the about:processes page is now missing several elements, such as the memory usage, CPU usage, and the close (X) button for each process/tab. See attached screenshot. Normally each row would show the memory, cpu, and if it's a closeable tab, the X button would be on the far right upon hover.

Browser: Firefox Developer Edition 135.0b3 64-bit, build 20250110123854 OS: Windows 10 22H2 64-bit (Windows_NT 10.0 19045)

Let me know what other info you need to squash this bug. Thank you!

When I open a PDF in Firefox, a box covers the right half the page demonstrating the highlighter tool. It never leaves. It blocks half the page and prevents me from reading and/or printing. Please help. It's making my work impossible.
