I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Whenever I open a new tab using the + sign the background color is black. I have tried everything I can think of and what I found on the web. Nothing works I hate the black background. I want white with text in black.

I have been using the theme Dark from Mozilla for years and years, but suddenly, like in the last 3 days or so, it appears that it is forcing every single freaking website to use dark mode, and I don't want it to do that.

I tried the "Colors" option in the "Fonts and Colors" section, but didn't that isn't at all what I want. Thing is, if I change to a "Light Theme", it forces the sites that I want to be in dark mode to be in light mode.

Can anyone help me?

I am highly distractable by screen movements of any kind, and prefer that nothing on my screen moves unless I ask it to--no autoplay or running ribbons of text or even slideshows with pictures slipping past each other unless I specifically click to make something move. But none of the adjustments I've found in about:config have stopped the snowflakes that drift down across the screen on

during December. I'd like to stop them in my viewing but not be the killjoy that demands they be taken down for everyone, because lots of people actually like them.

Any suggestions on what setting to tweak for this?

FF beta channel, up to date

I have been using the -no-deelevate command line option to launch my main browser profile with a shortcut to Firefox.exe without any problem since it became necessary. However, I am unable to start my other profile to allow dragging. Is there a way to do it, please?

Hi,

I want Firefox to save files without asking. I need it for E2E test automation, recentyl something has to change in update because even in GUI I don't see an option to remember my choice. In case of E2E framework I had a setting which was working but now stopped to work:

desiredCapabilities: {

               browserName: 'firefox',
               alwaysMatch: {
                   'moz:firefoxOptions': {
                       prefs : {
                           "browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk": "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet",
                           "browser.download.folderList": 2,
                           "browser.download.dir": downloadsFirefoxPath,
                           "browser.download.lastDir": downloadsFirefoxPath
                       },
                       args: []
                   }
               }
           },

How to do it today?

I use a Firefox account on two different machines- one is a Mac and the other is a Windows machine. I have some programs installed on the Windows machine that installed an extension for Firefox. Those programs are not Mac compatible but because of the same account, those extensions were copied to the Firefox installation on Mac. I was wondering if there is a way to isolate the extensions to just the windows installation? Thanks!

Have latest version of Firefox Browser on my macbook. Used to be when I "Bookmark Current Tab" I could select where that bookmark was saved but not just goes into toolbox. How can I change that so once again I can save to bookmark folder I want?

Hi. I made my own custom theme a few weeks ago, and I liked it. It has a dark toolbar, but the automatic new tab was still light. I liked it this way. I updated the browser today, and now it's essentially in dark mode and I can't find how to change it back. I really hate white text on a black background, and as I did not choose that as part of my custom theme, I would really appreciate being given the choice to change it back.

So I've got Proton UI forced on me today in 92.0 update and accordingly had to spend my entire evening trying to repair all of the damage. So far I've managed to fix menu spacing and the way tabs look all while not breaking previous walls of text in userChrome.css meant to fix even older UI problems. Still one thing I failed to find any solutions to is the bookmark drop-down menus color issue. Those menus used to be gray, but now they are all bright white, which to me is super annoying. Any tips on how to fully recolor those?

I set up firefox to use the search bar, and the first time I used firefox I typed into the search bar and it worked that way; however, each time thereafter when I typed into the search bar the text appeared in the address bar. I have tried resetting the selection without success. Any suggestions?

msn.com will no longer allow any of my browser extensions to block display of the home page search box and other items on that same horizontal level in Firefox. The tools to select elements to block only select the entire page. In IceDragon, I can still block individual elements. I complained to msn about that.

How do you remove The Firefox Title bar from my desktop? It prevents me from clicking the "Accept or Decline" buttons for example on software installs for example. on your support page I tried the "firefox menu> + customize & disable the title bar through the button in the bottom left corner of the window". There is no "customize" option.

I have recently updated directly from v89 to v92.0.2. Since then, I do not have the task manager option in the dropdown menu > More tools. Screenshot attached shows what I mean. This issue does not exist on a new profile if I were to make one, but I am trying my best to avoid transferring everything to a new profile if I have to.

If the only solution is to indeed use a new profile, I would like to know if there's a way to transfer addons and their settings through file copying and pasting.

Thank you for the help!

Using Firefox 65.0 (64 bit) PC Browser

When I close a window (by mistake) I no longer get the previous warning; "I am closing multiple tabs, do I wish to do this?" (or similar). I have twice closed multiple open tabs by mistake in this way.

I thought it was a restart that was responsible when I lost a lot of open tabs in (&) one window, until it happened again but this time I know what happened I closed the window, but the usual warning ws not received.  Please, please, reinstate this.

It might help also to have the close tab 'x' further away from the close window 'X'.

Can these be done?

Hi, I have an issue when i goto google.com and try search it always put text in address bar and never in the actual search field. I have tried to change it but can not figure out how. It is very annoying as I have a whole screen for text but it wants to only use the address bar..... Im at the point where I am considering changing browsers due to I can not get use to it and really dislike it.

When I try to check the box to open previous windows and tabs on startup it won't let me. Why not?

There is a known issue for some i3 users that when we click the right-mouse button, the context menu will pop up in a position where the first item in the menu is already highlighted, so when the right mouse button is released, it automatically "selects" that item. So if we want to copy a link, for example, we have to be careful to move the mouse before releasing the button or that link will immediately be opened in a new tab.

What some of us have done in the past is to create a userChrome.css file setting a top (and/or left) margin for that menu, which fixes the issue.

In the latest version(s?) of Firefox, this no longer works (but other userChrome.css rules I have set up continue to work), so I'm assuming that the ID of the context menus has been changed. What is the ID now?
