Sequoia 15.5 Firefox 139.0.1

Firefox recently enforced an update. After this update, I can no longer open file browser for attachments if a website offers this option (example: this very form, Browse... button does nothing). I can also not Save to PDF any more. In both instances, a spinning wheel will appear and then nothing will occur.

Hello to everybody, I repeat my question and hope it can besolved persistantly: Opening local .mdb files (MS Access database) does no longer work in Firefox 139, but was ok in previous releases. The only choice is to save the file rather than opening it with the application MS access. Under Firefox settings/applications the file type .mdb does not appear, nor do I have a choice to decide how to open it. I expect to find an entry for .mdb files where to choose "always ask" as was the case earlier. Please help! Regards Volker Zipp

Decades ago, browsers had features to download the current web page along with linked pages and store them locally including updating the downloaded main page's links to reference the linked copies. It was even possible to specify how many link levels to copy along with the main page.

when web page sidebars became popular this became problematic for a while since sidebars often linked to ads or unrelated content (Wikipedia or GitHub for example). Then browsers started providing a means to disable webpage sidebars and display only the main page.

I can't find any of that capability in Firefox. I have searched the settings, extensions, Firefox support pages and found almost nothing related to simply saving web pages.

I fear that some day the website 'UESPWiiki' which provides support for my favorite game which is now (2025) 19 years old will some day go away. UESPWiki has side bars preventing simply downloading everything. Help.

I posted this a while back but the person who responded didn't understand the issue..

For the past year or so every single thing I download from Firefox ESR has a padlock. The padlock doesn't prevent me opening files but it only started recently and no changes to my PC or Firefox settings.

Examples:

• Download a PDF attachment from an email.
• When on ANY website if I click 'print' and save the page as a PDF to my PC.
• Since this week alone: Export bookmarks to HTML now saving to desktop with padlock.

To be clear: This is strictly a Firefox issue... To test I opened https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox in FF, clicked 'print', saved to desktop as PDF and the PDF has a padlock. Opened the same page on Edge did the same thing and the PDF has no padlock. (The person who responded thought it had to do with security settings on the website I was on, this 'test' clearly shows it's a FF issue.)

There are no padlocks on ANY file or folder I create myself. I have to remove every padlock manually by adding 'users' under properties/edit/add,

IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS ISSUE?

Firefox web browser will not download latest firefox browser from firefox website! It comes up with this "Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to download.mozilla.org because this website requires a secure connection."

Please fix the issue since I cant print receipt using our POS and the file is not in the printer que. I think firefox dont send the file directly to printer since other browser does not have any problem with it, I can even print using notepad.

How do I name my windows? How do I save my windows with multiple tabs?

I have been using Chrome for a while and have created many named windows on different subjects with multiple tabs. Chrome repeatedly would become slow and need to be rebooted to update and would then erase all my windows. I could get some of them back by using the history function but often their would be some windows missing. If you search for this subject in help on Chrome to see if there is any help there are other people saying the same thing but there is no reasonable response and comments are disabled.

Hi, can someone please help. I just updated Firefox this morning to version 139. Then went to a bank site to download a CSV file of transactions - something I've been doing for many years. I click the button to 'Export Activity (CSV)' and then a pop-up window comes asking me if I want to open or save the file. Another window opens, headed 'Enter name of file to save to' and shows me the folders and has boxes at the bottom 'File name' and 'Save as type'. Here is where the problem starts. The 'Save as type' box usually has CSV in it, but now it's greyed out. The only option there is 'All files'. So I have to select that, and after I press OK then another window comes up giving the folder path and filename and saying 'File not found, Check the filename and try again'. I also get a Windows Security message saying 'Unauthorised changes blocked, Controlled folder access blocked firefox.exe from making changes'. I should stress again that none of this has ever happened before so I suspect it must be related to the Firefox update. I was able to download from the same site on Microsoft Edge with no problems.
