MY BANKING IS HANDLED THROUGH A CERTAIN CREDIT UNION. THE CREDIT UNION HAS SECURITY FEATURE THAT YOU ARE COMPROMISING BY RECORDING A SPECIFIC PAGE AS A BOOKMARK "post login script page's should never be eligible for automatic bookmarking to a home page." This should never be done as that page becomes a shortcut to my bank account! THIS CREATES A SECURITY ISSUE for me as I could be locked out of my bank account. Some sensitivity and a bit of common sense is called for here!

Additionally; I have an Amazon Account and want my bookmark FOR AMAZON to remain at The Sign-in page. However, you opt to delete my bookmark for an advertising bookmark that does not take me to an Amazon Login. This creates an inconvenience and a problem.

One more item: I do not use any on-line tax preparer. NEVER! I do not use Turbo-Tax, H&R Block, or any other tax preparation service. MY BOOKMARKS GET DELETED SO YOU CAN PLACE AN ADVERT ON MY HOME PAGE THAT IS NOT JUST UNWELCOME BUT A SERIOUS INCONVENIENCE.

Attempting to log-in on Twitch with Firefox Browser - Developer version 122.0b9 (64-bit) is currently not possible, repeated messages are prompted by the Twitch website about "unsupported browser" and to contact browser support to resolve this issue.

Clearing cache, disabling extensions did not work. Using regular Firefox works without issues, only noticed this being an issue after most recent update for Firefox Dev browser.

Side effect as well since update is that any Cloudflare captcha is impossible and all website that use Cloudflare to "authenticate" that I'm human just outright fail or continue indefinitely.

I just had to reinstall Firefox because It keeps trying to take over Firefox. I had to delete Cert9.db., I found in my Profile.

How would I solve this problem permanently without having to go back and troubleshoot over and over again?

I have noticed that I am unable to access the comments section on the various web sites I visit. I am sure it's a settings issue, however I have not been able to find the setting section. Any suggestions??

I have to either tab through the various fields, which is a pain, or try to move the mouse and somehow select a field, which takes me numerious tries. I'm on Windows 11. This does not happen with any other application or browser that I use. I try to use specific browsers for different types of work. I work as a Test Analyist and I reguarlly need to view websites on various pc's and os's. I've never seen this occur at work. Unfortunately for me, this is occuring on my home PC. I've tried everything I can think of, uninstalling and reinstalling, rebooting, and checking the settings for anything that would explain why this is happening. I have not found anything yet. If this keeps up, I'll have to switch to another browser.

I had set Google to be my default search engine. But that seems to have been replaced by yahoo! [I have tried to put a screen shot here but Firefox won't let me] I searched for Google in the search box which put the following in the url.

https://uk.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=google&hspart=iba&hsimp=yhs-syn_weatherprince&param2=9dUI1n2R0BLDxNuWfiP4aSFOTltNdSPoIx38%252BUf%252FiXrvPdoGmStdlfwLFZYDv ...

In Settings>Search, there is no Yahoo. Presumably it has hacked my computer. How can I get rid of it? I am running Windows Defender (3 1/2 hours to go) and I have Reset Firefox. Win11, 64 bit, latest Firefox

Firefox has stopped saving history and I am unable to save any bookmarks. This seems to have happened recently for no reason I can understand. I haven't made any changes. I use a VPN but was doing so before this happened. I have checked all the settings and also deleted the places.sqlite file. When I click <bookmark current tab> nothing happens and history shows as empty.

I recently upgraded my hardware and wiped my old drive, and I assumed I would be able to login through google directly and just recover my bookmarks that way. However, I can ONLY get in through a password (that I KNOW, but maybe its a character off, its driving me crazy) to recover my bookmarks despite being able to login to mozilla using my main email; which I have access to. I havent reset my password yet, so my bookmarks are probably still uploaded there. Very frustrating I was never notified that they changed it so that if you reset your password you lose your bookmarks, otherwise I would've written down this password. I've been collecting these bookmarks for years before this. is there a way to recover it through my gmail login?

Thanks for any help, Eric

All of a sudden when I open a link from an email it opens on Edge instead of Firefox, even though Firefox is my default browser. Can you please tell me where I can change the automatic setting? Thank you, Maria

Last months problem with Firefox, one process goes to 11-20% cpu usage+-, firefox does not load sites, freezes, after some time works again. Tried every solution and nothing. I have to wait or restart Firefox. I have similar problem on Android and notebook from work. You are unable to fix your browser but you complain that that MS, Google and Apple block independent browsers. Maybe the way to fix is reinstall Windows. GO TO HELL!!!

Firefox has been white-screen blocking my access to some common websites including CNN, Amazon and possibly others. No error messages, just a blank white screen. This is a sudden change and has never been a problem in the past. Chrome and Firefox on my other computers are not affected. I have cleared caches and deleted all tabs with no change in symptom. I've also checked CPU and memory resources and both appear normal. No sites are being blocked by settings either, though I would expect Firefox to give me a "This site is blocked" message of some kind if that were the case. How do I fix this?

Hello, As of today, my computer stopped loading the windows and tabs which I had accumulated with information I was interested in learning more about. I had 15 windows and sometimes up to 20 tabs saved per window. I had been saving and the computer had been loading these for years prior to today. Did something change in Firefox that these have disappeared from my desktop?

Sometimes Firefox suddenly closes without warning and loses all my open tabs. When it re-opens, I have to log in again to the tabs. My Firefox is up to date and so is my Windows 10 Home. I have a strong Wi-Fi connection.

i recently download firefox for a new computer when i went to search controls i noted that there was no choice for the address bar before i used the bar that had a search engines engine listed in the address bar but no i dont see it did something change at firefox i would still like a choice on watch search bar to use Im paul jensen beadoz@yahoo.co.uk

I'm having problems with Firefox using 75% of processor capacity. In "top" I see many instances of "Isolated Web Co".

At the moment of this screen shot the processor is not overwhelmed, however, it will sometime jump up to 75% and the system will seem to freeze.

What is the "Isolated Web Co"? I'm thinking a virus.

Thank you.

Firefox version 122.0 Mac: Sonoma 14.1.1 apple silicon

The problem emerged about a little over a year ago (around September 2022). It started with an installation of firefox on another machine running BigSur, and I guess the problem got ported when I restored a time machine backup on this current machine. I attempted to troubleshoot the issue by following mozilla support and reddit threads but to no avail. I, at the time, settled on monthly time machine backups, but now finally decided to address it properly.

Troubleshooting steps that I have followed:

• going into the about:config page and changing the places.history.expiration.max_pages and places.history.expiration.transient_current_max_pages to 2147483647 then to 999999 after reading about how a value too high might be ignored (both values didn't seem to change anything)
• going into the about:config page and changing the places.history.expiration.transient_optimal_database_size to 85534800
• removing the add-on/extension manager as seeing that it might remove history for some reason (from a [thread] by IceTemple)
• In the privacy and security tab, history is set to Firefox will use custom settings for history

Things I suspect might be the problem:

• I originally used the Chinese version of firefox (downloaded from the .cn website) and reinstalled the international version (from .com) after getting annoyed by the built-in ads. For convenience sake, I ported the profile folder over which might have carry the problem over. That being said, I don't think this problem existed when I just started using firefox but appeared awhile later.
• result of an update, don't know which though
• certain extensions (I haven't went through them individually since I installed a lot)

My questions:

1. How to stop Firefox from doing this ever again?
2. Alternatives of storing history if nothing works
3. Why did my troubleshooting steps not work? Is there something wrong with my version of firefox that prevented the about:config changes from working?
4. If I have to resort to backing up the places.sqlite history file, how do I restore/reintegrate them with current history file?

English isn't my first language so I apologize for any confusion that may arise due to how I articulate. Any help is much appreciated
