Hello.

English is not my native language, so I watch all TV series and cartoons in English with subtitles in my native language. Everything was fine until, at some point, one of the most accessible players that provided subtitles stopped displaying them. I thought that the player had broken or that some technical work was being done. But after a week, nothing had changed.

Then I downloaded Chrome, and the subtitles display perfectly in it.

It is in Firefox, specifically this player, that subtitles are not displayed. Other players display subtitles, but they are either unstable or constantly crash. Therefore, they are inconvenient to use and spoil my user experience.

In general, if you have any tips, I would be grateful.

Recently I have been issues with switching between windows of Firefox. No matter how many times I try to Alt-Tab or click on another window it momentarily goes to that window before switching back immediately. The only work around I found is to click a window of some other software and then click the window I want to work on in Firefox. Doing this is not making it switch back to the older window of Firefox again. Please help me in fixing this issue. It's making it nearly impossible to work on Firefox due to this.

if the browser ever crashes it likes to forget all my login cache forcing me to login over and over again. it also forgets my last session even though i have load my last session of tabs on startup. this POS keep loading no tabs from the last session.

I reinstall my pc and wanted to resync firefox, but wrote password wrong few times and went with suggestion to reset it through the mail, but my histroy and bookmarks not there? Is there possiblity to recover if I know my old password???

Yesterday, Firefox upgraded to version 145.0 on my laptop. Since then I have been unable to access the internet using WiFi. Everything worked fine with the former version of Firefox 144.? My desk top uses an Ethernet connection to the internet, and the latest version of Firefox is working fine.

Hi,

I'm looking to clear my history (as one does) but upon clearing my history as shown in the picture, I still get search recommendations in the search bar.

Do I need to tick more boxes ? I would still like to keep my stored credentials and forms and to ultimately keep search history results (just clear the ones i have right now), is there anyway of doing this ?

I have a <textarea> in a form that upon each read from firefox it keeps adding extra line feeds.

<TEXTAREA

  wrap="hard" 
  name="PJ3NTE" 
  id="PJ3NTE" 
  rows="4" 
  cols="65"
>hello how are you doing ? i am fine this is going to go n and one and on again</TEXTAREA>

becomes: >hello how are you doing ? i am fine this is going to go n and

one and on again</TEXTAREA>

then: >hello how are you doing ? i am fine this is going to go n and

one and on again</TEXTAREA>

Chrome works line. It doesn't keep adding new line feeds. I just noticed this this other week. I'm on windows 145.0

Hi

I need to block some sites through the OS Hosts file, Other browsers ( Edge, Chrome, .. ) are honoring the HOSTS file rules but Firefox bypassing them !! , I disabled the DNSOverHTTPS and all other available suggestion and options but still not honoring the hosts file !

as you can see in the attached file, the Firefox DNS Section is now blank ! but still doesn't follow the OS host file

I even made a custom policy file but still doesn't work, these are the things I disabled but still not working :

{

 "policies": {
   "DNSOverHTTPS": {
     "Enabled": false,
     "Locked": true
   },
   "Preferences": {
     "network.trr.mode": {
       "Value": 5,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.dns.native_https_query": {
       "Value": false,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.trr.uri": {
       "Value": "",
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.trr.bootstrapAddress": {
       "Value": "",
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.trr.exclude-etc-hosts": {
       "Value": true,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.dnsCacheEntries": {
       "Value": 0,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "network.dns.disableIPv6": {
       "Value": true,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "browser.fixup.dns_first_for_single_words": {
       "Value": true,
       "Status": "locked"
     },
     "keyword.enabled": {
       "Value": false,
       "Status": "locked"
     }
   }
 }

On google search bar- where is the microphone, or dictation icon. How do I add it. I have windows 11 and using Mozilla firefox as my default web browser. I have search the settings and cannot find it. Please send instructions to add it to the bar. If I were to use chrome/google they have it and I know Firefox did have it. Thank you

Old Bookmarks had utube music selections for okctrlrs@sbcglobal.net. After Best buy merged Owner and P. R. Patterson, Owner bookmarks w/music selections was gone. They said Firefox might have them somewhere. It would be VERY helpful if you do have them.

I use Firefox on a Dell Windows 11 laptop. This morning, when I opened my Outlook email, I discovered that in-message links no longer opened in Firefox (my default browser). I've checked everything I and other people can think of on the Outlook end--I'm waiting for further suggestions there--but I'm wondering if some Firefox setting could be causing the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I could start looking?

I downloaded the new firefox, when i loaded it up it asked me to create a new profile and there was a folder on my desktop called old firefox data. My current issue is that i cant figure out how to load my old data and restore all of the profiles I had and my profiles folder is a mess.

So what I am trying to do is determine how to sort out my profile folder and tell which profile is which without loading them all into firefox. And then I am trying to figure out how i can use the profile manager to manage a few different profiles and when i use that build in manager where are those profile folders supposed to end up.

Can someone help me with potentially very detailed instructions because this situation is insanely frustrating and all I want to do is maintain three different profiles and I feel like that shouldn't be that difficult.

You forced a download of of the new FireFox and it wiped out everything - favorite, history, etc.. even though I have signed into my profile. I don't even have the option to import from my previous version. WTH?!

As per the title.

I have a videoeto illustrate this issue

Firefox just auto installed the latest version 145.0. After about 15-20 minutes of usage, Firefox stops responding and hangs. I ran the Task Manager (Windows 11) and found Firefox was consuming 96% of the available memory. I have to kill the task to regain control. I'm left with switching to a new browser and will probably never go back.

This morning when I started up Firefox it had a pop-up about the new profiles feature, asking to create a new profile. Just out of curiosity I clicked the create profile button to see what the interface would look like. Since I didn't actually want to create the profile I hit the delete button, but nothing happened. So I closed the window. I then tried delete the new profile (then called "Profile 1") by hitting the trash can from the choose profiles screen. Still nothing happens. At this point my original profile window is still open, but I close everything to restart Firefox in hopes that it will allow me to delete this profile I never wanted to begin with.

The Choose profile window comes up, I select original profile and nothing happens. I can open the new "Profile 1", which I have since labelled "Bad Profile".

D:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles doesn't appear to have my original profile anywhere.

I'm deeply concerned this beta feature I never asked for has deleted my original profile when it should have deleted the new profile.

Lately , when clicking on the link in the Winloot Live emails in order to enter , quite often the link causes Firefox to freeze. Task Manager shows that the memory usage more than doubled. Only way out is to use task manager to end Firefox. Possibly an issue at the site itself. Anyone else seeing this?
