How do I delete all this damn crap? Must have been added with FF 140. The entries in about:preferences#search cannot be edited or removed.

After every update, Firefox starts to a blank screen and will not start loading the webpage url put in for over twenty minutes to a half hour. During this time other browsers on my Win 10 PC load immediately so it is not a network issue. It is Firefox. When I see that an update is pending I hesitate to do the update because I know I will lose the use of Firefox until it is ready to respond. It just hangs with "loading X.com" showing at the bottom left of the blank screen. I have been using Firefox for a long time and in the past year or longer it has become very unreliable. There are also instances where without an update it will do this and the only way I can get it to work is to clear the cache and the history through settings. What is going on with Firefox!

When I download Firefox initially I am able to set the home page the way I want with the shortcuts I use. After a few weeks the shortcuts disappear and the only way to get them back is to delete Firefox and reinstall. I am also not able to save bookmarks anymore. This has the same resolution methods.
This has happened 3 times already.

I have a folder with many bookmarks in it, and when I want to open multiple links in the folder but not ALL of them, I have to keep opening the bookmarks folder after middle clicking each link 1 at a time. I can't open the entire folder - there are 100+ and say I want to open 10.
Is there a way to keep the bookmark folder open while I open each link in new tabs?
Thanks!

Ok so I usually choose these option to remember history and from time to time delete Browsing & download history and Temporary cached files and pages.
Note: I have "Open previous window and tabs" ticked in general settings which also has a restore previous session option in the history menu. This brings back previous session with tabs etc as is when I close FF. https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2025-06-28-08-45-51-cf2daf.png
I thought I could automate this on exit but don't think its working right. So I change the option to "use custom settings for history" and tick all three options:
Remember browsing and download history Remember search and form history Clear history when Firefox closes For "Clear history when Firefox closes" I ticked Browsing & download history and Temporary cached files and pages. https://assets-prod.sumo.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/media/uploads/images/2025-06-28-08-45-43-b10213.png
The issue is the restore session option is missing and FF opens with all previous tabs gone. I am frankly not even sure what else is missing such as cookies, site data etc. Is this meant to work like so?

starting just now, firefox will not take me to ANY website. All other browsing services are working. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and clearing cache and cookies.
If I cant get this fixed for my job I will go back to chrome and never download or retry this again. I will also never recommend firefox to anyone like I have in the past.

Firefox stopped working on my computer. Every time I try to open it I get an error message that says "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I tried to uninstall and reinstall with no success. Our IT dept tried as well and nothing we have tried has resolved the issue. Thank you for your help.

Firefox recently started "eating" my tabs: closing them without my permission. There are several tabs I want to keep open at all times, because I refer to them from time to time throughout the day, but Firefox closes them from time to time. I googled the issue and the AI directed me to two settings: browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory and browser.tabs.min_inactive_duration_before_unload. It suggested setting the first one to "false" and increasing the duration of the second, or setting it to "false." However, the setting will only accept numeric values.
Since I am not having low memory issues, I want Firefox to leave my tabs alone. Is there any way to actually do this? If not, it would be really nice if Firefox developers reversed this intrusive change.
Thank you, Terry

HI,
I updated recently the Firefox installation on my Mac to 139.0.1. I noticed that I can no longer print from certain websites using Firefox. One example is from Alaskair, where I tried to print a ticket and it was just sitting there trying. I had no problem printing the same with Safari.
Is this a known problem? Any suggestion (other than just give up on Firefox and use Safari) for what to do about this?
Every time I update Firefox, new bugs cause annoying problems. That's why I usually not updating for a long time.
Thanks.

I have a WINDOWS computer and I use Windows 11.
My Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar has several FOLDERS.
Each Folder has "drop-down" components.
Example: FINANCIAL Folder includes: Pension
Social Security
Military Retirement pay
15 or so "others"
BANKS Folder includes: Bank #1 ( name witheld)
Bank #2 ( " " )
couple more
MEDICAL Folder includes : Medicare
My Chart
couple more
Everything looked great. Worked great too.
Then, next time Computer turned on, the FINANCIAL Folder had "Pension"
"Pension" ( same one again )
"Pension" ( same one again )
"Pension" ( same one again )
"Social Security"
"Social Security" ( same one again )
"Social Security" ( 3 more times)
ALL THE REST - GONE !!
Several Folders now 2-4 more times showing on the Bookmarks Toolbar Additionally, MANY Folders are now "Missing" !!!
A day or so later, the Bookmarks Toolbar was CORRECT !
A day or so later, the Bookmarks Toolbar was ALL WRONG as described above.
What is going on ??
Is there a way to FIX this? Do I need to go to GOOGLE CHROME / MICROSOFT EDGE ??
Similarly I have tried to LOG-ON to my Marriott Hotel website and things did not work correctly. I called Marriott Reservations and described the problem. Marriott asked IF I was using Firefox? I replied "YES". They said to use Google Chrome instead.
I used CHROME and everything worked GREAT !!!
Is this the answer? Firefox is not being properly supported? I should switch Browsers ??
I have used Firefox for MANY years. These problems are VERY recent.
I have always thought that "hackers" targeted Microsoft so Firefox had a "lower profile" and was therefore "SAFER".
I am losing confidence in Firefox.
Are these problems that other Firefox users are having also?
I liked Firefox's recent REVIEWS of "Ratings" -- but that was terminated recently.
Something "smells BAD" about Firefox.
What gives?
If your recommendation is to "abandon Firefox", which Browser do you recommend?
You help is much appreciated.

I have recently changed my browser to firefox and I have noticed that sometimes, when I have multiples tabs opened, it happens that, when i click in a tab, it instantly opens a new window with that same tab. I know that is a way of doing that on puorpose, but it happens to me against my will A LOT OF TIMES, which has been annoiyng me a lot. I asked AI and it thinks it may be a malware but it doesn't seem so. I have looked up on settings and there's nothing about it. What should i do? Has someone been through something similar?

Whatever update that happened recently destroyed everything I used Firefox for, everything. How can I get it all back? It seems there is no going back?
How did Mozilla left this get by? If I have to rebuild everything it will take years.
I may as well use a more worthy browser. I am so angry. I've lost links to so many family items like the burial site of my birth father. So, many things gone. I'm stunned and crushed over this.
I trusted Mozilla. Now i can't trust Mozilla.
