Hello, I'm having similar issue like this person https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1b8e2za/everything_is_missing_after_update/, where my shortcuts and recent activity is just blank. I tried to reinstall firefox, install beta version, remove cookies and cache but nothing helped me. Seems it happened after a update.

Hi. In recent weeks, I have been having daily issues with pictures in messenger not showing when they are sent to me, though I can see the ones I send out.

I have done the usual running in troubleshooting mode etc, but it makes no difference.

I have added a screenshot of the issue below.

I use Firefox beta and the issue does not happen on other browsers such as edge.

I develop wordpress websites on FF Dev Ed on a Mac running macOS12.7.4. This current problem is one I've never seen before.

• In a regular window of FFDE, dropdown items on the menu, don't drop down.
• A youtube video, visible in the source and in the editor, doesn't display on the page.
• A gallery of logos doesn't appear on the page, though it does in the editor and the editor's preview.

These problems DON'T APPEAR

• in a private window,
• in vanilla Firefox,
• in another user account, using FFDE
• on other websites, using FFDE
• in other browsers,
• on other computers, using FFDE

In all those cases, site works perfectly. Actions:

• refreshed the page (dozens of times),
• cleared the site cache, the browser cache (Managed the data AND cleared the data)
• turned off all extensions,
• put the browser in troubleshooting mode,

all with no change. Although I don't think anyone else will see the problem, the site is https://homeopathyschool.org What am I missing?

Does somebody know how to disable firefox to start in the last used workspace? I use Firefox under Linux in a Window Manager and defined a rule that should put firefox in a specific workspace but in this case firefox remembers its last used workspace and does not 'obey' the set rule...

I know it takes just two mouse clicks to open the About dialog, but I'd like to bookmark it so when I check my daily bookmarks by right-clicking a folder and clicking "Open All Bookmarks", it would be displayed. This would be a convenient, albeit forceful, way to keep Firefox up-to-date. The About dialog isn't modal, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Up to 126.0b9, files with encoded URLs in their filenames downloaded normally. As of 127 onward, however, it gets changed to _3A instead of %3A, etc. Is there a setting somewhere in config to revert this?

Example:

Supposed to be: test [sound=https%3A%2F%2Ffiles.catbox.moe%2Fe547nk.mp3].png Downloads as: test [sound=https_3A_2F_2Ffiles.catbox.moe_2Fe547nk.mp3].png

YouTube is not opening for you to understand see I have shared two images this text is coming again and again what is the reason and why is this happening please solve this problem very fast thanks'

Hi, Just received your "Webpages, simplified" notice and it triggered two improvements you can easily make so Firefox is more accessible to users with disabilities.

• Make buttons more descriptive "Learn More About Reader View" makes all the difference to someone using a screen reader. Imagine skimming a page where all the links just say "Learn More." This is pervasive across Firefox and easy to fix! (See screenshot of your page, attached.)

• Add link to accessibility features or Mozilla's accessibility statement at the bottom of every page. I should not have to do a search to find out about accessibility. See example screenshot from Univ. of California, attached.

I am using Firefox for Windows (and Android and IOS) on multiple machines. Copy to clipboard works fine on all platforms except on Microsoft Surface 5 laptop running Firefox 128 (and now 129). I have tried re-installing, re-installing from MS store, refreshing, starting in troubleshooting mode, refreshing, deleting all user profile data and create a new profile etc. with no joy.

I can select text from the address bar, or the search bar, or from within a website; the option is there to copy (I tested CTRL-C, as well as right click and choose copy), but nothing is actually getting copied to the clipboard.

Any help would be appreciated.

On Firefox for Windows the touch and pen logic is a mess. When I hover over something with the pen or scroll using touch, Firefox seems to make both elements hover and triggers even JavaScript related code at very high rate. These 2 elements are where the real mouse/cursor is on the screen and where the currently touching or hovering over element is. For example rest your mouse on the YouTube HTML5 player, then use a pen to hover over the browsers close button or even just something else on the web page like the like button. This will ramp up the CPU and make both the player and the like button your are hovering flicker between ::hover and ::normal. This will also call lot's of instances of these related events in the website's JavaScript. Another semi-related issue is when using the F12 developer tools in "Device Simulation" mode, It's impossible to for some reason because Firefox fakes real touch injections into the OS (and they show up as if I touched the screen by the OS) which cancels the precision touchpad input movement until I lift my finger from the touchpad. This is specifically a "Windows Precision Touchpad" issue, and There is no known fix to this apart from not using a such a touchpad... On old 10+ year old laptops with PS/2 or proprietary Touchpads that report themselves as a normal Mouse this issue won't occour but Firefox will still input system-wide touch input. As a developer myself this seems very silly because you own the source code and could solve this way more elegantly than asking the OS to input Touch events... Let me know if you need anything else, and point me out where the source for the input (specifically for touch and pen) live so I can take a look at it and make some improvements. Thanks

On that piece of crap Windows 11 I keep getting the "Can't get your tabs back". I get it EVERY TIME I open firefox. I have uninstalled (several times), deleted directories and tried the "Refresh Firefox" and nothing works. I do not have this issue on any of my Linux computers. I only have a few programs left that I need Windows for so I guess I need to look at dual booting this computer.

Is that ANY way to do a clean install of firefox? I keep getting the you have installed firefox before message when I try to reinstall. I really really really don't want to have to do a clean install of windows to try to fix this.
