I-Firefox Community Forum

Unlike before, many sites that I visit regularly, I am now having to log in every time I visit, including support.mozilla.org.

Did I unknowingly change something, some setting? or perhaps it's due to an addon?

I believe I had all this synced in Firefox Settings before I made the upgrade. Like all you fellow former users of Windows 10, I had to upgrade to Windows 11; and did so two days ago. Now, I found that I do not have under History any of the former sites I not only visited but also had tabs open. What can I do, if anything, to recover them? Under the Add-ons Manager, if this helps, I already had the app Tab Session Manager, but don't know how to use it. Thanks to all in advance who may have made this same upgrade. Many out there are still on Windows 10.

Since v.145, comments have been blocked on some forums for me. https://thetyee.ca is one I use regularly, and the comments are blocked. (This is a Coral Comment site.) The spinning wheel just spins (see image 2 below) and sometimes resolves as "blocked" (see image 1 below).

On rare occasions if I delete all cookies, restart the PC and the browser in a private window only, I can sometimes get comments to come up with a "login page" that successfully lets me login, and keeps the link open for a few pages for that session only, but when I open a new session, comments are blocked again. They just don't appear. when I am successful, it looks like image 3 below.

I never adjust settings, and only occasionally delete cookies, so I've looked into other help articles in the forum that have pointed out enhanced tracker protection might be a problem: I have whitelisted all the sites I use for ETP but only one or two now sometimes work properly (using disqus) while the others do not. Tyee support is unable to help - they say very few have made any complaints.

There are other sites that limit my access or functionality now because they say "You have an ad blocker installed". I don't have an adblocker installed. I've never installed an adblocker. But that's secondary. Perhaps if we get this issue solved (due to a setting?), that second issue will go away too. Or maybe not.

I see it's simply not possible to get rid of ETP. Do I have to get rid of Firefox?

At the moment all websites accessed through Firefox are all crashing after a few minutes and often a lot less. It is happenig constantly. It started before I updated Firefox today, but has continued after the update. Anyone know what's happening? I'm still on Windows 10 - will that be an issue?

Certain PDFs only allow page view when opened in Firefox. When opened with other PDF viewing software or browsers (Microsoft Edge, Adobe Acrobat, Google Chrome), these PDFs allow continuous scrolling. I don't have this issue for most PDFs.

I've tried fixing the problem by editing the PDF settings in Adobe Acrobat but to no avail. When combining a PDF that works fine with a PDF that doesn't allow continuous scrolling in Firefox, it seems to take on the settings of not allowing continuous scrolling.

Examples (these link to documents from a Florida public document database): Example 1 (made with Power PDF Create) Example 2 (made with Adobe PDF Library): https://depedms.dep.state.fl.us:443/Oculus/servlet/shell?command=getEntity&[guid=5.506115.1]&[profile=Cleanup_Remediation]

I'm crazy when I DO it. How do I fix?

I like the idea of horizontal tabs, but the line between the topics and the website is TOO DARN SMALL!

How do I go into to make it larger?

I know it's simple, but HOW?

And by the way . . . HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Thanks!

Version 145.0.1.

It's a helpful feature I'm sure for some users to be able to drag a tag onto another tag and have it auto-create a group for you.

However I have been dragging tabs to reorganize their order in the window my whole life. Now, they are all of a sudden creating tab groups.

Example (one of many) I order my amaz*n shopping tabs by item price to compare.

I would like to turn this "drag to create tab group" OFF (back to the old behavior).

Please don't get confused: there's a new feature detailed in the blog: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/tab-groups-updates/ which is dragging onto a GROUP. I am NOT asking about that. I'm asking about dragging one tab on top of another which are NOT YET IN A GROUP and having firefox CREATE a NEW group.

In about:config searching for "drag" the only things I can see are

browser.tabs.dragDrop.createGroup.delayMS 240 browser.tabs.dragDrop.expandGroup.delayMS 350 browser.tabs.dragDrop.moveOverThresholdPercent 80 browser.tabs.dragDrop.pinInteractionCue.delayMS 500 browser.tabs.dragDrop.selectTab.delayMS 350

But I can't make any sense of those.

Здравствуйте, из-за отсутствия места на диске ВЕСЬ МОЙ БРАУЗЕР ОТКАТИЛСЯ. У меня остались папки с профилями. Но когда я их загружаю, браузер говорит, что профиль не доступен. Что мне делать? На скриншоте папки из профиля. Мне хотя бы пароли восстановить...

Trying to figure out how to wide the "line" in between the sidebar, with tabs IN it, and major website. Can anyone have a tip?

I had to do that one, and I cannot remember.

Thanks!

My desktop icon has disappeared. It is still on the taskbar and in Start Menu (Windows10), also listed in programs on control panel. However I can not find it in Program files and have not been able to reinstall the desktop icon. Can you help me? Leslie Booth ([edited email from public support forum])

Good morning, the "Payment Methods" section has disappeared. In its place, I see a link called "Manage passkey in system settings," which takes me to the Windows 11 Passkey section, which I've NEVER enabled!

If I create a new profile, the "Payment Methods" section appears as normal, but when I link it to my Microsoft account for profile sync, the "Payment Methods" section disappears and "Manage passkey in system settings" reappears.

How can I fix this? Thanks

My Bookmarks are missing. I see backups under the profile/bookmarkbackups folder but when I manage bookmarks, they are not in the restore dropdown. I have followed the steps to delete the places.sqlite but when I reopen firefox, I do not see the bookmarks have been restored. I thought it might have been related to Norton Utilities so I renewed a subscription but no luck. I also have a json file with my bookmarks but I cannot choose it from Manage Bookmarks, either

After installing the latest version of Firefox for Windows, if I have 3 firefox pages open (I have pages ungrouped on the task bar), when a download is in progress, it shows a progress bar on each of the pages as opposed to just on 1 page. Was this change made on purpose or by mistake?

Error code 403

Error ID IjcpdgAAAAAAAAAAMfV4Nb~F

My IP is 49.245.120.53

I was trying to reach this page (a government service page), https://eservices.ica.gov.sg/ipapples/index.xhtml ,

I got this response: "Although the request was valid, the page/resource you are trying to reach is absolutely forbidden for some reason."

then I got this: "The web server thinks that the HTTP data stream sent by the web browser was correct, but access to the resource identified by the URL is forbidden for some reason. This is highly likely due to the reason that your recent action or browser behavior has been flagged as suspicious, either you have failed all authentication tests, including CAPTCHA, or performed an action on a protected application deemed illegal or malicious by the Web Application Firewall (WAF). Access to the requested page/resource is therefore blocked. If the source IP is on the blacklist, you will keep seeing this page until being removed from the blacklist. "

then it advised: "Clear your browser’s cache and try again. If you believe this to be erroneous, please contact the site owner citing the Event ID indicated above and provide a description of what you were doing before you were denied access."

Now, acting upon that advice, I've cleared my Firefox browser cache, but problem remains.

So, may I request that Mozilla remove (or a kind person help me to remove) my IP from blacklist? Thank you.

Saved a new password for a site in the manager, but the update on the site failed. Now I can't login there (need to change the email address linked on the site, and can't without the old password that I forgot)... and the support on the site is bad.

All of my bookmarks have been erased. It says the file is being used by another application. I have looked at the help section but the options they give does work.

I have Windows 11 version 25H2, and Firefox 145.0.2 I'm having problems connecting to some sites, e.g. Amazon.fr The problem is the same on other sites, i.e. it takes a long, long time to connect to a site or within a site. I have tried various solutions such as: running Avast Clean Up, restarting my computer, clearing the history in Firefox before trying to connect but nothing seems to help. What's gone wrong and what's the solution?
