I-Firefox Community Forum

if I had 30 bookmarks, there was no problem to sort all by name, if I´ve had 40 bookmarks I must sort it 3 times but then it works. But now I have more than 50 bookmarks and I testet it every update but it dosen´t work, why ?

I am constantly getting hit with all sorts of REPEATED prompts to "Try" features..ex - "Try Horizontal Tabs" or "Create a Profile". I am getting frustrated with the inability to stop these annoying and useless prompts. I need a browser that let's me work the way I want and need to work, I don't need a browser that thinks it knows better than I, what I need. Using about:settings is not intuitive and leads to breaking more things than it fixes. I try to stop the prompts to try horizontal tabs and it breaks my easy access to the ChatGPT cog.

Put all these feature recommendations on a single page displayed to the user with a "Do Not Show Again" checkbox. Or limit the prompts to 3 times max or once a month. Something far more reasonable than every time I open the browser. People, this is not difficult - Stop being over-baring and persistent with these undesirable recommendations. ALL USERS ARE NOT THE SAME.

If I do not "Try" when prompted, especially the 2nd, 3rd time etc. it is highly likely that I am not interested and want to be left alone. I am ready to ditch Firefox and move to Chrome or Opra. Let me reword that - I am being run off by Firefox's nag tactics. I assure you another day or two of this and - & "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" -ms will be next. I am not going to use about: and search through endless config options every time I need to get my work done. Make it easy to stop or stop it entirely but stop trying to control my browser usage. I don't have to use Firefox you know. After 48 hours passes if these prompts don't go away, FireFox will be automatically removed. In other words, give me a reason to manually stop this scheduled task.....or don't.

$action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe" -Argument "/S" $trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Once -At (Get-Date).AddHours(48) Register-ScheduledTask -Action $action -Trigger $trigger -TaskName "UninstallFirefox" -Description "Uninstalls Firefox in 48 hours"

I’ve encountered a problem with Firefox that it fills up the RAM memory to the brim (12Gb) and especially when you’re on Facebook, it doesn’t empty the RAM memory but the data remains, you have to close Firefox and lose your web page, it just fills up, Why, should it be like this, very annoying!!!? :flushed_face: //A-B/Sweden

after my laptop crashed (again did so over 100 times) but this time all history is gone, could not restore last session/s - can't log into my accounts (any) - can't set it to an earlier date (e.g. yesterday) to eliminate whatever the problem is (am not an IT expert, so I don't know how - just know that it is possible) - I have tried for 4 hours - no avail - I really need the status of 4-5 hours ago so I don't lose so much

I have my browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo in about:config set to 60 – it's been like this and working fine for several months.

It's set to this high number because I use an assistive technology which creates a fresh pop-up every time I deploy it, and Firefox treats it as a browser window closure when I close the pop-up. Consequently, I can easily rattle through well over 25 window closures in a day.

It's not necessarily that each window contains dozens of tabs and copious data, but nevertheless Firefox still treats it as a window 'within the meaning of the act'!

I just went to reopen one closed window from a couple days ago which did contain many tabs (partly why I closed it in the first place), only to find that the 'recently-closed windows' context menu is now only showing 20 windows (18 of which are the aforementioned pop-up assistive technology windows)

The really vital window that I want to reopen is not showing.

I've double checked in about: config and the browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo is still set to 60 windows; nothing has been altered or reset.

I updated Firefox to 147.0.4 yesterday evening, but the problem existed before I updated Firefox, and is still in evidence since updating.

Two questions:

1) Why is the Recently Closed Windows context menu not showing the full number of windows it has been successfully doing with no problem now for months? I used to have to scroll down to access the full extent of the 60, but they were always there.

2) Why has it arbitrarily changed to 25 windows?

3) [I lied – Our chief weapons etc...] Is there a way that – given about:config still implies that the most recent 60 windows are retrievable – that I can access beyond the 25 windows limit that are currently showing as reopenable?

Thanks very much

(And yes, I already have things like OneTab and Tab Session Manager add-ons, but disabled those just before closing the important window, because I was trying to locate which add-on was draining the CPU. I assumed my 'recently-closed windows' buffer of 60 would suffice while I disabled the add-ons.)

I have Firefox installed and pinned to the taskbar. When I click it, it immediately goes to a download Firefox page instead of opening. I then open another tab to get into g mail or anything else. I can then close the download tab and continue. This is most annoying. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling which works but then lost all bookmarks and the answer there was to go to old Firefox and restore, which I did and that worked , however, the download page came with as well and this time in a different more colorful version that is quite long.

Scroll bar issue on some websites When accessing certain websites, the scroll bar disappears (for me, it's on the right side of the screen), and it's no longer possible to view the page content, even using the keyboard's scroll keys.

DETAILS Only affects certain websites Firefox is up to date No blocking extensions are installed Access is possible with another browser Thank you for your feedback, Sincerely, F. Vernoux

barre de défilement pour certains sites Lors de l'accès à certains sites la barre de défilement disparaît (pour moi à droite sur l'écran) et il n'est plus possible de consulter le contenu de la page même avec l'utilisation des touches de défilement du clavier; PRECISIONS Concerne seulement certains sites Firefox version à jour Pas d'extensions bloquantes Accès possible avec un autre navigateur Merci de votre retour, Cordialement, F. Vernoux

Images appear fine, but lately I cannot see embedded videos on websites when I'm browsing. This is a recent change (past couple of weeks).

I can view the same videos using another browser, so I think this is a firefox setting possibly.

Up until a few days ago I was able to preview yahoo mail attachments (e.g. PDFs) before downloading them. I don't know what may have changed, but I don't recall doing anything on my end. Any suggestions or advice on what settings I should consider changing greatly appreciated. M

I have around 20 tabs in my firefox browser about tarding they all keep refreshing at the background when i am using firefox,its causing my Laptop battery drainage

Both the menu and the taskbar are not available since the latest update a few days ago. I've searched all options in Firefox settings with no luck in finding a solution. Help would be appreciated as this is extremely annoying and working around it wastes a whole lot of time.

While transferring data from the old profile manager system to the new one, I accidentally created one more profile than I needed. I have tried to delete the extra profile on multiple occasions, it won't go away. I have attempted to delete it through the profile management ui, and I went into the files and delete the associated data. On both occasions, the profile remained in the UI. I am unable to edit anything about the profile either. Is there anything I can do to resolve this annoyance?

This appears to be a new "feature" that is absolutely insanely stupid.

There are websites that use a phone number as a user ID and now, instead of that number being remembered by Firefox as a user ID, Firefox now inserts a list of EVERY possible phone number you've ever typed, for you to chose from. The irony in my case being that the phone number in question that was being used as a user ID, is NOT in the list.....

Anyone know how to turn it off? Thanks - Brett
