I-Firefox Community Forum

I have Firefox installed on three Windows Desktop Computers. On one, I just cannot delete Bookmarks, no matter what suggestions I try. Verify Integrity of the database produced no results. I do not, for a variety of reasons, sync bookmarks (or anything else) between the three installations. Experienced user that has spent far too long on what should be a simple issue.

We are getting this Random Error while Scrolling. Before Version 141 it was working fine. Even after getting connected and getting response that update to 141.0.2 but same issue still exist.

Good morning,

Firefox is not loading webpages correctly this morning. From Gmail not displaying or opening individual emails, Amazon not opening, to Youtube and several other sites not loading or displaying correctly. I had no issues at 9 PM PDT yesterday.

No changes to the computer, and everything is up to date.

I have successfully opened the above mentioned sites and others on MS Edge this morning.

Thanks!

Unsure if this is correct category... Years ago when Firefox was in it's infancy - Firefox settings used to allow much more power/control over cookies & how you deleted them. You could actually display & select individually ones you wanted to delete. Now Firefox has it's own Interface 'utility' and only allows you to delete 'groups' of cookies based on their App name. I was looking for the location / name of the dataset which is used to store cookies - so I could delete them more finely. Or is this in some sort of special format which is ONLY accessible thru Settings. I see MANY Cookie add-ons, mostly dealing with auto-responding to cookie prompts. Actually as of this writing - I am trying one of these.

firefox used to have good history now it's only 7 days? i need to see more than 7 days, all of it being available is ideal. what prompted this - although i've been irked by it before - is needing to know how i got to a website, what was the search and/or tab spelunking that got me there? it's really important to know this. relying solely on google search (if that'll yield part of the trail) seems contrary to firefox ethos.

I want to permanently remove Quora and Reddit from my search results, so I asked AI and on number 4. it says "Add Search Engine" but in my firefox settings their is no such setting. Any suggestions would be helpful. Here is the AI response:

To permanently remove Quora and Reddit from your Firefox search results, you can create a custom search engine that excludes these sites. This involves adding a new search engine with a modified search query that includes site exclusions, and then making it your default search engine. Here's how to do it:

 1.  Open Firefox settings: Click the menu button (three horizontal lines) in the top right corner and select "Settings".
 2.  Go to Search: In the left sidebar, click on "Search".
 3.  Find Search Shortcuts: Scroll down to the "Search Shortcuts" section.
 4.  Add a new search engine: Click the "Add Search Engine" button.
 5. Fill in the details:
       Name: Give it a name like "Google Clean" or similar.
       Keyword: Choose a keyword, for example, "gc".
       URL: This is the most important part. Use the following modified URL, replacing YOUR_SEARCH_QUERY with %s: 

https://www.google.com/search?q=%s -site:quora.com -site:reddit.com This tells Firefox to search Google, but exclude results from Quora and Reddit.

   Make it default: Click the three dots next to your newly created search engine and select "Make Default". 

Now, when you type a search query into the Firefox address bar, it will automatically exclude Quora and Reddit from the search results.

Previously, when printing a website, you could select the text on the page and then click print and then there was an option (Print SELECTION) that would allow you to print only the highlighted text.

I cannot find that option on the modern firefox print window/dialogue?

I keep getting notifications, supposedly from Mozilla and/or Microsoft on lower right of my screen, telling me the system is infected. How do i determine if these messages are valid, or a scam ? Turned computer off and back on--messages keep popping up.

I am a magazine editor right on deadline and as my Firefox inisted it must be updated I endeavoured to do so and now it will nor allow me to open up and forward any pdfs.Please help.

For the past few weeks, my PC reliably crashed after a few chess games on chess.com with Firefox. GPU and Memory benchmarks are running through without issues, it did crash when starting a Steam game once before, but I wasn't able to find out why. At this point, I'm really curious to learn about what could possibly cause this, but don't really know where to look for it. Really wondering what special thing is happening after a game there that doesn't happen with other websites/browsers. Would really appreciate your help!

Running Wayland on Archlinux 6.15.7 with AM5 CPU and DDR5 memory. Sometimes wondering if it's a graphics issue since my display is connected via the iGPU, but I also have an NVIDIA graphics card installed that I use for games sometimes.

I would like to add another shortcut to the Firefox home page, but although there is enough room to add one in the second row, no spaces with an edit tool are visible or available. I am using a MacBookPro with an M3Pro chip.

Has worked well for years, but with updates you broke it.
