I just moved to a new PC which also took me from Windows 10 to W11. When I try to enter saved credit card information in an online payment form, I can see the credit cards (they are not greyed out) but when I select one, the form does not fill in.

Multiple websites including Wall Street Journal, Etrade, Ultimate Guitar Tabs and several news sites are freezing up or failing to load properly. Latest updates on Firefox and Windows 11. I've used Firefox for years but now its becoming increasingly annoying to the point of uselessness and no one seem interested in helping. Microsoft Edge seems to work just fine. Its not as slick as Firefox but at least it works.

Hi,

Running into a strange problem with FireFox on Windows that I cannot replicate on IOS and Android devices.

I created a custom font and it seems that at 100% zoom my characters are getting chopped on the bottom. At 90% and 120% its renders correctly.

I have attached a sample screenshot with the font at 120% and the font at 100% resized so they are equal in total pixel volume to illustrate the difference.

Already looked at the following:

• Turning off ClearType in Windows.
• Various settings using the font-smoothing css property:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../font-smooth

Neither of these seem to have any effect. Because my font is meant to have an old school video game style and feel the way that it renders, trying to smooth it over has a negative effect.

I realize the fix may not be something that can be changed in FireFox itself, but if anyone who has experience with this type of issue can offer any advice or guidance it would be greatly appreciated.

You can play around with the zoom levels with my font here: https://www.stevesgames.com/about

Hello! I've created a custom theme in firefox color, and I'm getting an error trying to upload it to the add-on developer hub. I downloaded the .xpi file and tried uploading it, but it only says Your add-on failed validation with 1 error. Received an empty response from the server; status: 403 I'm wondering how I can fix this, or how I can at least find my design that I saved within firefox color. I clicked on save, but when I tried making a new design in firefox color, it removed the old one. Now I'm having trouble finding my creations! If anyone can help I would appreciate it greatly :) Thank you. And as you can tell I am new to firefox color.

This is in the address bar when I open a new window; chrome://branding/locale/browserconfig.properties This is the message I get and have to open a new tab: File not found

Firefox can’t find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/browser/omni.ja!/chrome/en-US/locale/branding/browserconfig.properties.

   Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
   Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

Why do I keep getting this instead of a fresh new window? It is annoying to have to open a new tab after a new window.

Previously access was denied 2 log in 2 xfinity on Firefox browser. Reply 2 post gave me a different log in . It worked. After I got email from u "Your Firefox account was used to sign in Chrome on Windows 10 Boardman, OR, United States (estimated) IP address: 52.32.111.255 Wednesday, Dec 14, 2022 2:52:14 PM (PST)". This isn't me, but I logged in at the same time. Did Firefox mistake my log in? When I attempted 2 change my password, it wanted 2change the password 4the spammer. I couldn't change MY password. I didn't use Chrome, I don't have Windows 10. I have Windows 11 and I am not near Boardman OR.

My internet provider is Xfinity. Attempts to log into Xfinity brings up Access Denied. You don't have access on this server. Reference # 18.9df4d517.1670977649.113aaffc.

Why did you all of a sudden completely eliminate tabs? I don't want to have to click a drop-down menu to view my tabs, or now have to right click on a tab in menu to delete one. I just want to see tabs, as they normally should be, all lined up in a row when I look up at my screen. WHY did you change this?!!

For the past 2 days, Firefox is ridiculously slow in opening; 45 minutes yesterday, 25 minutes today. What is going on? How do I fix this? If it continues for another day or two, I'm switching to Chrome, because I can't put-off the start of my workday for much longer; it's unacceptable.

The entire Firefox UI freezes frequently after updating to 107. The freezes occur while navigating to a page or shortly after (e.g. clicking a link or entering a search term into the search bar). The freezes last for about 2 to 10 seconds. During the freeze the entire UI is unresponsive and does not respond to any mouse or keyboard input. However, animations like the page loading spinner where the favicon is on the tab continue to move.

I found a charge of $28.50 on my credit card from Saint Gervais Sur Mar with something to do with DownloadHelper. I do not remember that charge and believed it was free. How can I cancel any subscription and get money back?

I tweaked my Firefox configs to get better font rendering because I hate how "skinny" they are by default on windows. The options changed are:

• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.rendering_mode to 5
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.force_gdi_classic_for_families to ""
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.enhanced_contrast to 100
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.cleartype_level to 100
• gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.pixel_structure to 1
• gfx.webrender.quality.force-subpixel-aa-where-possible to true

After the update, the fonts are default again, and no matter how much I change the configs, it doesn't change anything.

Dear all,

Pretty much the same as mentioned here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1299343

The video in that link explains it.

The menu bar keeps appearing/disappearing at a high frequency, randomly - and a key press will stop the glitch for a few seconds - or when firefox is not in focus. Tried cleaning, removing, without pluggins, setting the ui.key.menuAccessKeyFocuses etc etc. Now running the Beta, still same problem. For a while I suspected iCue and Corsair Strafe keyboard - or USB settings, ports, but nothing obvious. Also weird only Firefox suffers from it in that case.

The weird thing is it can go ok for 4-5 hours but then the next day it's back again - once in this state it's unusable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Best,

Alex

All of a sudden, Yahoo email is not signing on Firefox on Windows 11. It is working on other browsers on the same computer, and even on Firefox on the Mac computer that is running the Windows 11. I tried all possible solutions but to no avail.

1) Cleared all cached data and cookies 2) Refreshed FF 3) Completely uninstalled FF and deleted the profile folder and reinstalled a fresh copy 4) Disabled all add-ons and extensions. 5) Private window

I am stuck at " Uh-oh... We can’t sign you in right now. Please try again in a while" every time I try to sign in. I get (https://login.yahoo.com/account/challenge/fail) instead of (https://login.yahoo.com/account/challenge/password).

Any suggestions?

Thank you

I just upgraded to FF 108 and every time I open Google search page and search for anything, FF freezes. I tried to restart in troubleshooting mode and the very same thing happens. The problem doesn't exist on any other page, just Google search. Same thing happens when searching from the search bar. I tried searching with "duckduckgo" and there is no issue.

When I logged into my Firefox account on a computer given to me by my employer, I acquired all the login info from all the other Firefox profiles on the computer, including bank details and a porn account. What's up with that?

I deleted all those old profiles and purged the extraneous passwords from my password list but did my passwords go online and mix with all those other people's passwords? And could someone repairing my computer open up their Firefox account and capture all of my passwords in the same manner?

Curious to know...

I installed Firefox onto this new computer, and it was working fine. After a (possibly unrelated) Microsoft Windows update, Firefox stopped working correctly. Now all windows (except "Settings") are completely blank. I can't sign into my Firefox account, because the sign-in window is also blank. I don't know if this helps, but I've noticed that when I click on the "Firefox View" button in the upper-left corner of the screen, I see a box that says, "Switch seamlessly between devices" and includes a progress bar that indicates it's "11 % complete", which it has continued to say for three days. I've refreshed, uninstalled, and reinstalled Firefox several times and get exactly the same result (including the "11% complete" notice in Firefox View). Please help -- I've used Firefox for years and would very much like to continue to use it on my new computer, but right now, I'm stuck with Microsoft Edge (which is working fine ... but I love Firefox)!

With the update from 107.1 to 108.0 my default search engine was reset from DuckDuckGo to Google. This happened several times before, about once a year. Extremely annoying. I'm using the only browser not based on chromium for a reason.

Is this due to some agreement between Google and Mozilla?

I really wish I could pay directly for a browser. I'm using it 8-10 hrs each day.
