I-Firefox Community Forum

I have been never been able to get any useful response to any question, (including the one just posed) from the Mozilla community. I did, by serendipity wind up in a discussion with a new (to me), manage in the process though to stumble across what appeared to be a relatively new forum, within the community that offered some hope, in that it terms of reference were specific to addressing the problem.

Hooray. . .I just accessed the the new notice regarding educated guesses. Blatantly false advertising in that none were provided, but it did appear to be connected to the forum trying to address the problem at hand.

It's a daunting challenge, requiring understanding and discussion in depth because the system itself is quintessentially non-linear, dynamic, and it's ultimate configuration. . .which includes the user interface and human operators indeterminate and un-determinable. But a great and hopeful start. I believe I indicated an interest in contributing to the discussion. How do I get to it? I'm logged in now and my email [edited email from public community support forum] is the easiest way to respond, if that it available. Thanks.

Dear Team, I was asked to start an upload in Firefox. I tried that. I get the message 'Couldn't load XPCOM' What do I have to do to restart Firefox? It's urgently needed for account verification! Could this possibly be due to a lack of capacity? I currently have 371 MB of 111 KB available. I ask you to help me quickly - thank you very much.

Hello. Why doesn't Fiery Fox release a portable version of the browser? What if everything was in one folder and didn’t shit throughout the entire system?

We kindly ask you to start releasing a portable version.

Thanks for your understanding.

Best wishes.

So, I don't have an issue, I just want to scream because my firefox crashed and when I started it back up it asked me about booting it in safe mode or something, but I didn't want that and the other option was 'refresh firefox'

Nowhere AT ALL does it warn you that it will WIPE your current installation and RESET everything. I had no ideas and had not saved up the content of my OneTab extension in a while, FUCKING THANK YOU FOR THAT.

That's it. Fuck you.

how do i completely stop updates? or at least until i restart the browser, not the browser making me restart it. i have it set to "Check for updates but let you choose to install them", but its not really a choice if im forced to press the button to continue browsing...

it happens twice a day that firefox prevents me browsing and makes me wait 30 seconds for it to update after clicking the "restart firefox and update" button. very frustrating.

You guys keep hijacking my browser and stopping all my work on a near weekly basis. Shutting down my ability to work on projects and stopping my browser from functioning in the middle of use. I can't even pay bills without you guys interrupting my browser with your bullcrap.

This is unacceptable. I've gone through great lengths trying to stop you from hijacking my browser. I installed a policy generator and followed the instructions to put a policy in. I uninstalled Firefox's background updater tool. I disabled automatic updates in the settings to the best of my ability.

I've gone through everything I can think of trying to stop your forced updates. Its unethical what Mozilla is doing to its users. I even tried to lock policies with admin only authorizations but firefox couldn't read the file anymore when I did that. I did confirm today that the policy file was still working, when Firefox ignored it and shut down my browser till I restarted it. I confirmed that Firefox is blatently ignoring policies.

I just checked and Background Maintnence was installed again when I didn't want it. You're now installing software against my will too? What the hell is going on.

I just downloaded the latest FF having had an old account. Working fine but I continually get a message that I am on windows 10, which is wrong. I am on Windows 11. The message has worn out its welcome. Is there a way to fix this.

re: AI and copilot

Both the above have recently appeared on my old Dell Optiplex Desktop and are causing glitches and other problems (slowing down and sluggich performance). For instance, on my Google Search page, my contact list is being blocked by a panel connected with this new installation, and is losing me access to my Contacts. How can I solve this problem, please.

If possible, I would like this programme removed from my compure

I have installed Thunderbird on a new PC desktop running Windows 11, copied all the server settings from my Mac laptop that are working correctly, yet i keep getting an error message that "Thunderbird failed to find the settings for your email account". My ISP will not provide detect support for your client, a "third party provider". What do I need to do?
