Thanks Cor-el for replying with advice on how to use about:config to ensure the screencapture was toggled correctly. It wasn't and I corrected that. Now I have the icon in the toolbar and on the right click menu but when I attempt to use them all I get is a popup menu with a large black X in it and nothing can be done with it. Also, on the toolbar items that are added to it all appear in the overflow and there is no way of getting them to appear on the screen by reducing the size of the search bar. I've been using firefox ever since it first appeared and I've never had problems like this before.

Hi, I'm sorry this is long-winded, I just want to explain it with full context as best as I can.
I just replaced my laptop after many months, and in that time have been using Firefox on my phone. I was excited to use the desktop browser again and sync everything. After I got signed in, customized my header layout, got my addons, all my settings, etc., I moved on to something else and closed Firefox. The next time I opened it, I noticed my profile picture in the toolbar wasn't changing from the default. When I clicked it, it said sign in and had a sync button, and a 3rd empty option. If I tried to sign in it would automatically take me to my account settings, as if nothing was wrong, and if I tried to sync it would ask me to sign in but load forever upon clicking confirm. But so many dropdown options and dialog boxes were blank, it was sort of broken. I refreshed Firefox and it let me login again but after I went through it all, it happened again. I uninstalled the few addons I had, still happened. Tried messing with some delete-upon-close options I saw someone suggest in another help thread, didn't work. After trying over and over and getting very overwhelmed and disappointed, I finally noticed that it only happens once I set my theme to one with a gif as the header image. If it's a still image it keeps me logged in as usual. But if it is animated I end up with this error again.
So, I guess my question is, can anyone please tell me why this happens? Is it something I can fix? I can live without an animated theme but I was excited for it, I even made 2 myself but also tried existing ones and this happened with each one. Is there something I should do to make it work? If no one has any answers maybe this will at least help someone else trying to search for it.
Thank you so much!

Firefox just updated to 94.0.1 (64-bit). When I restarted the browser, I found it had deleted my home pages. Fortunately, I have them in Edge and was able to set them up again. Also, Firefox reset my options, for example, when I open a PDF link, I have it open my PDF reader. Now, Firefox wants to download it.
Can you guys stop screwing with the settings every time you update the browser? It's no wonder why Firefox is losing users.

Here go again... I have repeatedly asked how to disable Firefox updates as each and every update introduces errors which require many hours to resolve. The only valid answer I received indicated that only business users are allowed to prevent updates so help would not be provide. Despite me being an adult and a business I still have to waste many hours nursing another sick update. So, now once again, after update 94.01 has been forced upon me and now running noticeably slower, I have had to readjust everything back to how I want to use as the update overrides everything (which I have been told should not happen but does every time) I notice the new tab no longer allows opening into Google. I am using 'New Tab Homepage' and 'New Tab Override' plugins. Does anyone know how to fix this update issue, or is this another error introduced by yet another dodgy update that we have to hope will be resolved at some indeterminate time? A simple way around this would not be to update, but that requires assistance that is denied.

Howdy!, I'm running Firefox 94.0.1 64bit on a Windows 7 PC, and there isn't anything going wrong, but I would like to be able to sort the list of files being downloaded at the top of the list from files that have completed downloaded automatically, and I can't seem to find any help topics about this already.
For example if I am downloading 20 files, I understand that only the last 5 files I started to download will appear and will show in the list unless I click on the "show all downloads" button at the bottom... that's ok, and is as expected, that's not my problem...
BUT... And here's my problem, if lets say the first file of those twenty files is a huge 10 GB file and is going to take 50+ minutes to download, but the 2nd thru 20th files are just some dinky 2 meg JPG files and they download practically instantly... whenever I open my "ongoing download list", it will STILL only show the last 5 files downloaded, even though they are completed and yet that first file which ISN'T finished doesn't show at all until I click the "show all" button to even see it, and even then I may still have to scroll down the list of finished files in order to actually see it's progress...
Is there a command I can put into my profile / or is there a preexisting add-on/extension (or whatever) that i can download/install that will constantly sort the output of the downloads list so that the ACTUAL active downloads are the top of the list showing up as those first five lines on the short list, and if I have more than five the rest are hidden until I click the show all button (preferably sorted in the order of most percentage completed to least percentage completed), and then, as a file completes its download, it gets moved to the top of the completed/history section... IE after all the files are completely downloaded, the list will be sorted by the file COMPLETION time NOT the time I STARTED to download it. I seem to recall that a prior version of Firefox acted this way, but I don't remember if I had to modify something to get it to do that, or if it was a standard/stock feature that I somehow turned off in this build and forgot how i did it... or, if I'm actually misremembering it that way at all and it's just wishful thinking on my part!!!
Anyway, thanks in advance for any info you can help figure out for me...

Hi there,
The speed dial add-on has been blocked but I didn't know it was going to be blocked and therefore need a back up of all my links as it held the shortcuts to a number of businesses.
I'm happy to transfer this to another add on but need the links.
Please help.

I often misspell "the" as "hte", and other similar typos where (usually the first) two letters are opposite hands of the keyboard and my right hand it slightly faster than my left. Awhile ago, I accidentally hit ADD TO DICTIONARY instead of the THE to correct it. I have also just did it again with a similar typo.
Everything I can find online says there should be a persdict.dat file in my Profile folder, but it is nowhere to be found. I have searched my entire C: drive (including hidden files) for persdict and nothing was found. Has it been moved? OR is there some other way to delete that? Maybe even just a "Delete ALL" added words to go back to the default, since I have never purposely added any words to the dictionary? Since it IS a word I misspell a lot, I really need it to flag it again so I notice it.
To be clear, I am not talking about any add on dictionary or extension. Just whatever Firefox uses by default for filling in forms.

Hey there,
I'm running a Windows 10 PC. When my PC crashes (hardreset, bluescreen, etc.) Firefox disables all installed addons.
How to tell Firefox not to disable my addons?
The Win crashes happen from time to time. Not often but it's annoying to enable all addons everytime it happens.

Hi,
Back in the old days of classic extensions, they had access to FF's GUI elements, provided such privileges were asked in a manifest file.
For example, there were extensions that added tab's title to the URL bar. And I want to do exactly that nowadays, too.
WebExtensions can not do that but this should work with userChrome.js, right?
If so, maybe someone has already done it and I simply could not find it. Does anybody know?
If not, then how do I access the URL bar object to add text (e.g. page's title) to it or something else?
Thanks in advance.

I'm having a really hard time trying to put proper terms into my request. Please bear with me.
I believe it's a version or two ago that Firefox started imposing an arbitrary limit on how long I could explore in a pulldown bookmarks menu before it disappeared. I believe that earlier this wasn't the case: that once I was searching around among bookmarks they would be available to me to mouse around in for as long as I needed. Now they self-retract after a few seconds.
Is there a hidden pref to remove or greatly increase the time before the automatic withdrawal of bookmark menus while in use occurs?
I hope I'm being clear about this. I'm sure my terminology is less than accurate.
Thanks
