Firefox updated on my macbook pro running Sequoia 15.5 but failed to restore my previously open windows. The option to restore previous session was missing. How can I get my previously open windows back, bearing in mind I'm not not a computer nerd? Thank you, Edouard.

I wanted to use the Firefox browser VPN to check what the price of a certain Patreon subscription is in another country, but when the VPN is on, the website still correctly identifies my current location and shows me the price in my current country's currency. Is this a limitation of the VPN, or did I not set it up correctly?

Does Firefox VPN not work with DNS over HTTPS set to Max Protection, and when using a custom provider?

With the VPN on and DNS over HTTPS set to Max Protection set to custom provider, no pages will load and I get an error screen/can't connect to proxy screen.

Greetings and Good evening Due to restoration of windows Mozila was uninstalled on 03/06/2026 It had all history and data since 2021 Please help me to restore this. Please tell me how this can be done? Thank you Regards Himanshu Kotecha Account id [edited] gmail.com

Hello all

 Firstly I have been using Firefox for about 2 decades and it has always worked perfectly - you can take a bow.
Now for my problem
I have been using Firefox for internet banking for many years without any problems - the usual login, password ans secret questions. Just after Xmas my bank updated it's website and suddenly nothing works. I was told that it now only works on Chrome and NOTHING else - not Firefox, Edge or anything else. I am able to log-in but can't see my account balances or perform any other functions - it just jams up to the point that I even have trouble closing Firefox.
I use Firefox exclusively because I don't trust Chrome or Google - they are just a massive data collection/sharing operation. I have Chrome Mask installed but it just doesn't make any difference.

 Is there anything that I can do or add-on to over-ride this problem?

I am running Mint Linux 22.2 with Firefox 151.0.1

Since a recent update, the shortcuts on my home page have moved up higher on the home page.

Previously, they were more in the middle of the page.

Is there any way to move them back down to the middle of the page? It just looks off to me. :)

I just installed Firefox on my PC haven't had it on this computer since reinstalling windows - I imported my bookmarks and passwords from Edge, thinking it would be a seamless transition, since I used Firefox in the past without much trouble.

Two weeks on, about 95% of every page I open gives an error similar to the one below, and I have to shift+refresh several times to get it to reload before it goes away, (some sites still don't open).

I wonder how common this issue is, and how people fixed it?

Be careful. Something doesn't look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with connect.mozilla.org. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails.

Advanced What makes the site look dangerous? The site is set up to allow only secure connections, but there's a problem with the site's certificate. It's possible that a bad actor is trying to impersonate the site. Sites use certificates issued by a certificate authority to prove they're really who they say they are. Firefox doesn't trust this site because its certificate isn't valid for connect.mozilla.org. The certificate is only valid for: *. eero.com. What can you do about it? Probably nothing, since it's likely there's a problem with the site itself. Sites use certificates issued by a certificate authority to prove they're really who they say they are. But if you're on a corporate network, your support team may have more info. If you're using antivirus software, try searching for potential conflicts or known issues.

After Windows 11 Home's Microsoft password manager supports passkey, I have troubles with passkeys in Microsoft password manager, not Windows Hello.

1. Firefox failed to login into sites with passkeys in Microsoft password manager tied with sites.
2. After Firefox added a passkey into Microsoft password manager (at that time, no error occurs and display succeed messages), Firefox an Microsoft Edge (Chromium based) fails to login by the passkey. And this trouble continues after Edge replaces the passkey tied with the site.

So, I can't use passkeys in Microsoft password manager.

Have you heard something like this troubles?

OS: Windows 11 Home 25H2 (Japanese locale) Firefox 151.0.3 (x86_64 with Japanese locale. On second trouble, I used the latest version at the old time) Edge: 149.0.4022.52 (Official build with Japanese locale)

So, I tried to delete that post, but it blocked the category of Science completely, so I had to unblock it.

But my point is, Why if I do not want to see this post about Seniors getting bathroom upgrades and I try to delete it does it make an entire category go away? I am sorry, but this is just goofy (trying to be polite here).

This is simply Not about Science whatsoever, that Seniors are getting bathroom upgrades if they live in these zip codes! Also this Same thing has been posted Multiple times in other Categories! Again, this post typically has Zero to do with the Category that it was posted in! I mean Zero Relevance or, more accurately, actually Less than Zero.

So, in the past, I was able to get rid of a post, but now, if I try, it blocks whatever category that the Ad was posted in! What?

Is this now the price of having Firefox? That I have to have postings that I can not either block or delete? Really?

Please explain and tell me why I can not target an individual ad from being posted. Thanks for your time. John D

I tend to have a lot of tabs open at a time and even with the Customize Sidebar > Hide tabs and sidebar checkbox ticked, it is still distracting at times. Could you please help me find a setting/way so that I can hide it and make it re-appear when I hover on it only. Kinda like how we have on windows taskbar? Much appreciated.

The plugging is NOT updating and it's blocking me from watching anything on streaming. I've tried triggering the update by turning it on and off, by tugging on and off the "DRM" option in settings, by turning off the updates and then looking for updates... I went to about:config and made sure that all options were "true". What I get is an "error in downloading the update" that I can't fix.

Can someone help?

A client of ours has recently raised an issue with with us stating where right-click, Paste does not work when adding text to a new LinkedIn post

After investigating, we have been able to reproduce the same behavior on our devices.

However, from our testing, we can right click to past on comments, messages and searches just fine

Troubleshooting already attempted:

Cleared Firefox cache Performed Firefox refresh Tested across multiple devices

We have confirmed this occurs on:

Clients device My work desktop My work laptop My personal desktop My Personal Macbook

This issue appears to have started after updating to Firefox version 151.0.0. I know this as i have tested this on my work laptop, appeared to work fine then stopped working after manually updating from 150.0.3 to 151.0.0.

Please let us know if there are any known issues, additional troubleshooting steps, or if further diagnostic information would help I have attached screenshots of the issue.

I have also tested this in the Google Chrome web browser and appears to be working correctly as also seen in the screenshots.

The original post is one of the top search engine results, and provides a bandaid solution, without addressing the proper root cause, so I want to help whoever stumbles over this.

Original problem:

Dale 1/9/21, 8:26 AM

Firefox Developer Edition 85.0b4, macOS 10.15

If I Google for a PDF and click a link, I get the Firefox download dialog. If I select "Open with Firefox [Developer Edition]", the following things happen:

   The PDF is downloaded to ~/Downloads
   The PDF is opened in a new tab, with that new tab's location bar holding a file:///... URL to the downloaded PDF 

What I would instead like to happen is:

   The PDF is downloaded to some temporary directory where I won't have to worry about deleting it manually
   In whatever tab the PDF is displayed in, the location bar contains the URL where the PDF was (temporarily!) downloaded from 

How can I achieve this?

Not having the URL where a PDF was opened from is very annoying when, for example, I open a bunch of PDF search results to read and review, and I later want to share links to some of those PDFs. Best I can do to find their URLs to give to others is then to try and remember which tab corresponds to which search result, or do mine the downloads tab.

Contrast this with Chrome: I click a Google result for a PDF and the PDF just opens in the current tab with the URL to the PDF in the location bar. No dialogs, no PDF files hanging around in my home directory, and I can just copy the URL to the PDF the same way I'd copy the URL to any web page.

Thank you!

Sigh. It appears the problem was one or both of the following preferences:

   pdfjs.enabledCache.state: false
   pdfjs.migrationVersion: 2 

I deleted both, and now clicking on a PDF just opens in the sane, normal way in Firefox that I desire.

Naturally I have no idea how those got set.
