I-Firefox Community Forum

I sent message below to Bluesky support and have tried all their suggestions (all relating to Firefox), but to no avail.

MacBook Pro OS 10.14.6. Yesterday (9Dec2025) I could open Bluesky & see my profile but could not add a new post. I then did an ‘age verification’ and received confirming emails. When pressing ‘New Post’ button just went to blank page. Under ‘notifications’ at the top, was a message “''''! r.countGraphemes is not a function''''”. I am accessing using ‘Firefox 115.31.0esr (64-bit)’. I have deleted caches, re-started ‘Firefox’ and re-signed into Bluesky, but problem persists.

Could you please advise how I can overcome this problem. Thank you, best regards.

all of my information have been compromised recently when Google was my search engine. Please help me make sure this won't happen again. Thank you!

I have about a dozen computers synced to Firefox. The Bookmarks go nuts when an older seldom used machine powers up. I spend days cleaning out my bookmarks only to have old ones come roaring back. I have began manually backing my bookmarks up to a hard drive. Firefox has failed me. I wish to delete all, or some of the backed up bookmark files.

How do I do that!!! I've spent hours over weeks online trying to stop this madness. Can I wipe out all the files by deleting any of the three "places.sqlite files? Is there a way to selectively kill the very large files that keep coming back and keep the other recent backups?

Does someone sell a pay to play bookmark manager similar to Foxmarks / xmarks?

Thanks for your help Lee

I tried logging into my account on a website. I decided to click on the passkey option to log in. Firefox had ask to access my passkeys and I mistakenly declined. But the pop-up doesn't happen again. It goes straight to "authentication failed" without trying to ask me again to access the passkeys. I don't see any setting for this in the settings page.

How do I change the permission to let Firefox access my passkeys? Or how do I make Firefox and Windows ask for my permission again?u I'd like to not have to reinstall Firefox if I could.

In the previous version of Firefox, my Bookmarks folder was fixed in to the Sidebar so that when Firefox opened the Bookmarks were visible; how do I fix the problem?

I'm simply trying to email someone using the email link on their site.

The link is a mailto link which requires an email application (which I don't have). All I want is to copy the link to the clipboard.

Firefox lets me right click the link and copy the email address, but this doesn't allow me to provide the required Subject specified by the site's author.

I could have sworn Firefox used to have this feature. Netscape and IE certainly always had it back in the day.

Bonjour,

A chaque demarrage de firefox, la taille des fenetres retaurees se reduit. L'environnement est du KDE Plasma X11 sur une Debian 12. La methode est simple: Ouvrir firefox. (Mode restauration de la session precedente active) Quitter firefox. Reouvrir firefox. La fenetre se reduit a la retauration des pages.

Comment remedier a cela? J'ai deja tenter avec un nouveau profil. Le probleme persiste.

Cordialement.

I updated to version 146 today on Windows 10 and had to use administrator credentials. I have Mozilla Maintenance Service previously installed. I tried uninstalling MMS and then re-installed FF using full installer and selecting the custom option to install MMS. I cannot see the option in Settings..General 'Use a background service to install updates' (Screenshot attached) How can I fix this issue which has been present for some time?

after the recent update I could no longer 'like' articles or comments on substack, and I couldn't post comments, either. looks as though there was a fix the next day, because I was again able to 'like' and comment...but then late that night I was suddenly back to square one. exactly the same issue. it's now been a couple of days and I still can't 'like' or comment on substack.

this same thing happened after an update many months ago, and after a week or two I just switched to opera. checked firefox again in september or october and it was working so I stayed. I'd like to keep using firefox but the substack problem is annoying. why did it work for about eight hours and then stop again? it seems as though substack is the poor step-child. hope you can get this fixed! because having to change browsers is also annoying...

thanks!

I recently installed v. 146 for both FireFox and Thunderbird on my laptop which is running Windows 11 Pro (Version 25H2 / Build 26200.7462). Since the upgrade to v. 146 I have been unable to use my older HP printer (Laserjet 2300d) on both products. When I try to print a browser page or e-mail using either the printer icon or the "File/Print" menu selection, the print dialog comes up like normal. However, when I click on the "Print" button, my screen flashes, the dialog box disappears, there is no indication from the printer that a file has been sent and no document is found in the print queue.

My newer HP printer/scanner (Officejet Pro 8130)works fine, as does printing to my older printer from MS Edge. So, the issue is with the Mozilla products. Using "Troubleshooting Information" and clearing the Printer cache has not resolved the issue for either FireFox or Thunderbird. Nothing else like this shows up in the knowledge base.

Do I have to retire my older, but dependable and inexpensive to use, laser printer in order to continue using FireFox/Thunderbird or is there a software solution?

How do I disable the cruft which appears in the URLbar? Specifically, the trackers detected symbol, the certificate verified symbol, the bookmark this page symbol, and the question mark symbols which appear on both the URLbar and the searchbar.

Firefox is no longer working on my new Surface Pro. I tried to open a new session and received the following error: BuildID: 20251205151434 CrashTime: 1765375923 InstallTime: 1765289759 ModuleSignatureInfo: {"Mozilla Corporation":["firefox.exe","mozglue.dll"],"Microsoft Corporation":["msvcp140.dll","VCRUNTIME140.dll"],"Microsoft Windows":["CRYPTBASE.dll","crypt32.dll","fltLib.dll","version.dll","bcrypt.dll","ucrtbase.dll","KERNELBASE.dll","bcryptPrimitives.dll","kernel32.dll","advapi32.dll","rpcrt4.dll","sechost.dll","msvcrt.dll","ntdll.dll"],"SentinelOne Inc.":["InProcessClient64.dll"]} ProductID: {ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384} ProductName: Firefox ReleaseChannel: release StartupTime: 1765375923 SubmittedFrom: Client Throttleable: 1 UptimeTS: 0.0 Vendor: Mozilla Version: 146.0 WindowsErrorReporting: 1 This report also contains technical information about the state of the application when it crashed.

I have uninstalled and re-installed several times and even the downloader throws this error once it finishes. I simply can no longer use the browser. This is a huge inconvenience since I saved so many links for my work. Please help.

When the YouTube shorts tab is open, if I want to open another tab, it immediately starts scrolling. When a shorts show starts, I click the "plus" button and it immediately scrolls down. I hope you get the idea.
