On desktop, I can create and edit the URL and name of a Top Site. On mobile, I can only pin sites that Firefox generates. The problem is, Firefox often generates Top Sites that are individual articles or entry pages (espn.com/nba/lebron-said-booya), whereas I’d much rather get index pages (espn.com), or in some cases an inner page (espn.com/nba).

These two FB features work perfectly on Safari.
Is this a Firefox problem, or a FB problem?

This happened overnight. Yesterday I had a multi-row toolbar in Firefox 66, and today there is nothing to be seen.
The bookmark toolbar had become set to not be displayed (not by me!) and when I selected the option to display it the space between the bottom of the address bar and the top of the contents window increases by 2mm, but nothing else happens. The toolbar is visible as an option from the bookmarks menu and contains all the expected bookmarks, but try as I might I cannot get back my now much-lamented multi-row display below the address bar where it should be.

After the latest update, the desktop icon said that the shortcut went to nowhere. Looking in the program files, firefox.exe did not exist, but firefox.exe.sig did. Clicking on that yielded nothing (win 10 couldn't open it). Tried uninstalling, and the helper.exe did nothing. So I manually deleted everything, then downloaded again, and still there is no firefox.exe, and the .sig version is there. Interestingly, there is a new firefox icon on the desktop, pointing to firefox.exe, but that file just isn't there to access.

Hello. I am a Firefox user with adblocker add-ons (like ublock, adguard... etc). And I am currently experiencing biig latency in using the Firefox at 240hz. Look at this video : ( https://youtu.be/DmoWkOdaTXk )
This video tested in korean web pages for best expereince. Of course, mozilla/google/yahoo... those sites also shown me same symptom.
When i using 120/144hz monitor settings, firefox looks normal. but with 240hz monitor setting have some delay with page loading. and! If i have removed the adblockers, it will work normally. (only in 240hz, 120/144hz have not problem with adblockers)
This symptom is the same in Microsoft Edge like in Firefox, and is not seen only in Chrome. and Adblockers have the same symptoms regardless of the type. For example, ublock, adguard, and adblock all have the same symptoms.
Where can i config / fix the symptom in this way?
without change the monitor refresh rate.

Firefox starts without extensions when triggered from third-party application (Windows 10 64-bit). How come?

Hi,
First off, I must say that this behavior happens with both the installed and portable versions of the latest stable 32-bit Firefox: when I click on a link in, say, Thunderbird, and Firefox is not running yet, it opens a new window with no addons, as though from a new, clean profile, instead of resuming where I left off when I last closed it, as I set it to do.
I can't for the life of me understands why that happens. It seems as though I have two different versions of Firefox (I'm certain that's not the case...), one that I start manually when I need to browse the Web, and another one that would be triggered by third-party apps, the two not sharing the same profile, of which I'm sure I have created only one.
I thought it could have to do with the fact that Portable Firefox comes in a 32-bit/64-bit package, with the third-party app starting the launcher instead of the 32-bit executable, but I've now deleted the 64-bit folder in Portable Firefox altogether, so that can't be it.
Where does that strange behavior come from?!
Repeatedly occuring opening new tab and it does not start to load the page only after long time.
Started while back now too annoying already

Firefox has been working for months perfectly, since yesterday where I meddled with user rights. I reversed everything back to normal, meaning my User has admin rights and I can access and write over everything. However whenever I start my laptop anew and I open Firefox fresh it says "Another instance of Firefox is already running". When I click on "End task" it keeps spamming the same message. When I go to abort it just ends the firefox.exe (as observed through task manager). When I press windows+r buttons and type in firefox.exe -p or similar, I can create a new account (the last one created did not save, default user cannot be picked) and use Firefox normally. I am super confused and cannot find any solution online, I have tried many and this is the compromise I am working with as of now.

Hi, Following the advice of a Mod, I updated to Firefox 66.0.5. Now in my e-mail, e-mails from Nintendo don't show images at all (see screenshot). Going through all possible official and unofficial guides, nothing helped, as most guides say click on the lock and "disable protection for now" button, but this new Firefox version doesn't have such options. Today I also noticed on the streaming platform Twitch, where small "treasure chest" images should pop up from time to time through an extension, the image was completely black (should be of a treasure chest). This bug is not present on any other updated browsers, a viewer on Chrome confirmed he sees them normally. Articles read that didn't help: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-tell-if-my-connection-is-secure https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/mixed-content-blocking-firefox In Privacy and Settings I toggled everything on and off and issue still persists. I will try to figure out if this is E-Mail provider issue or not, I will try to post a screenshot about Twitch and the black image in the next days as well. Thank you.

FF 66.0.3 (64-bit)
Cookie AutoDelete - I have checked "Localstorage Cleanup (Firefox 58+)?". But many sites remain - Cookies are deleted but storage persists. Or perhaps the Cookies listed are still there, even though it shows 0, because Data column still shows an amount.
In the developer's thread on GitHub, it is speculated that this is a FF issue:
"@pezz @planket2
I'm not sure how firefox displays the storage size completely, but based on my interpretation from the following screenshot, it's a firefox thing (or a bug on their end) and not a bug with this webextension itself."
https://github.com/Cookie-AutoDelete/Cookie-AutoDelete/issues/512
NOTE - JUST DISCOVERED - It's even worse - FF definitely is not clearing Cookies and Data -
I've just done the following 3 times with the same result each time:
FF: Cookies and Site Data / Manage Data / Remove All - Everything disappears. I close it, then reopen manage data - they are all back, including ones for which I am not on their site currently (no tabs open) - such as
www.theguardian.com 0 48.0 kb 17 hours ago www.facebook.com 0 48.0 KB 2 days ago secure.agoda.com 0 96.0 KB yesterday
NOTE - Facebook.com from 2 days ago reappears, although no tab open on facebook.com, I"m using Cookie AutoDelete, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin.

As stated above, in win10 Firefox constantly freezes up. Sometimes closing and opening resolve for a while, other times not. Tried all the fixes, none worked. The freezing was more sporadic prior to the latest win10 update, much worse since. I have a win7 machine that never has problems. Both use Norton, both have same settings for browser and Norton security. Only difference is win10 vs win7. Hardware-wise the win10 machine has more resources, double the ram and an ssd, win7 machine less ram and hdd. The win10 machine should be better not worse.

Hi,
At our university, a lot of user are using Firefox to edit Office documents via our on premise Office Online Server. Our Office Online server is always at the latest release/update. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/officeonlineserver/office-online-server-release-schedule (There is no problem with Office online in Office 365)
Recently the users complaining that they cannot add text to an office document. No problem with other browsers. Problem: While you start typing, you see the text on the screen, but when you hit enter or select another position in the document, the new added text disappears. FireFox is now running at version 66.0.5 (64 bit)
Is this a bug in the latest release?
Kind regards,

I have Firefox ESR 52.7 installed. The whole purpose for having an extended release version of Firefox is to make sure extensions which no longer work with newer versions of Firefox will continue to work.
Yeah, so I've read that extensions that do not have up-to-date certificates will be disabled. But for goodness sake, this should not impact ESR versions!! And I want those extensions back. Will this be fixed?? I cannot live without my AdBlocker!
Not a happy camper.

Hi,
I have a laptop with a 4K (3840 x 2160) display and have had issues with text scaling in various programs. I have tried various combinations of Windows display resolution and text size and have now settled on full recommended resolution of 3840 x 2160 and text size scaling of 225%.
In Google Calendar, the up and down buttons used to set Notifications, are abnormally small. I suspect this is related to high DPI scaling. Can this be fixed?
