I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Your advise to hold the F5 button and left click the screen refresh is not a fix to the fact that Firefox will not refresh itself most of the time on my Windows 10/64 machine. Chrome and Edge do not have this problem on my machine, and I prefer Firefox so I wish you'd fix the issue instead of offering workarounds.

Thank you,

I got a new computer running windows 11.

I installed Firefox as my default browser. I then noticed the address bar performing search which is annoying as hell and actually and interferes with productivity as I use search. Basically, I have to redo searches after the address bar. It is problematic. The one off search from address bar according to last survey only 26% of users like it. rest want it gone.

As for me, I have tried the solution of Keyword set to false and the browser url oneoff also set to false.

I saw another suggested item of turn off keyword search. However, that item does not have an off button or switch within Windows 11. Just check marks of the suggested keywords that developers installed into the field when downloaded. I unchecked all the items as that was the only change I could do. So, there is no keyword selected. I closed all browser windows and restarted Firefox.

The address bar search still occurs. This make the previous question and answer solution invalid as of August 12, 2022.

I consider this a BUG and a major development of Firefox browser failure. When I search, I am looking for generally wide range of results and alternative search options are better than specific one off search. Best example; What is difference between Clementines and Mandarins? As a one off search you get one set of results. When you use the proper search box of a search engine, you get totally different results that are more useful and less time consuming to know the full range of answers, history, physical traits as well as other items not considered in the address bar search. In the search engine box, you do get the address bar search items. However, they always are 6 to 20 down the list of preferred or most useful. However, the address bar search results do not have all the top 5 items from the search engine search. It is a matter of how the address bar does the search that is at issue. For whatever reason, the results are not as good as direct input. You will have to determine through investigation why that is. However, that is a year's worth of investigation if anyone would do it. In the mean time, this address bar search needs a simple button that does all the changes necessary to make it stop!

Additionally, I find multiple related search options that are given by search engines extremely helpful when looking for related type of searches. This is something that the address bar search can not do and was never designed or allowed to do. Thus, it causes loss of productivity.

As such and because it does cause loss of productivity, it is a BUG and by law, Mozilla must remove items or provide easy solution to stop productivity failure.

The current solution does not work. That means Mozilla must provide an update immediately to make this feature go away for those who find it annoying, useless or interference with productivity!

Under Windows 10, the Windows taskbar showed Firefox open windows. After migrating to Windows 11, the Windows taskbar shows all tabs opened, without grouping them by window.

I read this post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1222298

but the suggested fix isn't shown in about:preferences

Is this a Windows 11 thing, or am I missing a Firefox solution?

I use the Dragon NaturallySpeaking add-on to navigate Firefox (and my entire computer) by voice. Recently the extension stopped working properly, and when I tried to uninstall and re-install the plug-in, it would not work at all.

This is the installation link Nuance provides: https://dnsriacontent.nuance.com/15/setup/ffinstall.html.

When you try to click the "Install" button, nothing happens. This has caused Dragon to stop working with almost the entirety of Firefox. Please advise on if an update is coming.

Hello and good day! In attempting to login to chase.com, it keeps telling me that my Firefox browser needs to be updated every time I login. How can I tell if I have the latest version? Thank you!

website for example like VK - https://vk.com i can't never sign in/log in.. it keeps telling me The page isn’t redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to login.vk.ru.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

i tried to - delete cookies - delete history - add exception (vk.ru/vk.com) to Cookies and Site Data - private Mode - disable HTTPS-Only Mode - reinstall firefox but still like some other website the same problem.... plz help these websites work fine -- by using other Browsers i can login

Not receiving confirmation code email. I have checked the spam folder, am checking emails on three devices and have added the Firefox email to my contacts. Have tried 6 times.

how do i start creating my own custom theme using css? im not looking to just change a color, i want more control of the whole firefox browser. any links for good tutorials? all ive found was tutorials on how to install custom themes but none on how to make them using css. <3

I keep trying to sign in on my new Win 10 laptop. I have been double-checking my email and password each time; I am 100% certain they are correct, as I receive an account authorization email each time I try; when it's obviously incorrect, it does not send this email.

When I enter the code I am given, I am told my password is incorrect. Okay, no problem, I still have my old device where I'm still signed in. I tried to change the password -- old password is incorrect?!

I have had the same password for much longer than what is likely recommended for security reasons. I *know* what it is and yet I'm still being told it's incorrect.

Please help me. I can't work on my projects without my browser set up properly on my new PC. It's absurd that I can't even change it on my old PC.

Unfortunately I had to get a new laptop and it's Windows 11. I want to load Firefox as my browser (I've been using it almost since it's inception) thru the Microsoft store. I do NOT want to activate Edge which is preloaded and want's everything but my bloodtype to set up Edge so that I can go get Firefox. I've pulled up article after article that it can now be directly loaded from the Microsoft store but when I open the store and search for Firefox... it's nowhere to be found. I really don't wanna start up the edge. Anyone know what's going on with this? Or is Microsoft being it's usual sneaky self and forcing me to activate edge and then maybe firefox will show up in the store? Hopefully someone will answer this quickly as I sit here waiting to continue my setup. Thanks!!

I am able open yahoo mail in my firefox browser, but none of the buttons are working. i cannot select a message by clicking the checkbox to the left of the message that is displayed in my inbox. if i select the message by clicking on the message, instead of being able to view it in the pane below my list of inbox messages, it appears in a new window. in that new window, no buttons are working. cannot delete, forward, reply, or use the back button to get back to my inbox. also unable to click on the calendar icon and see my calendar or click on the contacts icon to see my contacts. yahoo mail works fine in both edge and chrome browsers only having this problem in firefox.

I have the latest versions of firefox installed on both my iMac and my MacBook Air. Both computers running the same IOS. Both Firefox versions have exactly the same preference settings. The iMac gets an occasional 502 Bad Gateway notification and will not go to that website. The MacBook Air does not get these issues. Both computers are running the same anti-virus software.

This message started happening 3-4 weeks ago and is baffling as you cannot get to that webpage on the iMac but at the same time I get to it fine on the MacBook Air.

What is causing this issue??

How to troubleshoot time related errors on secure websites

Certificates for secure websites (the address begins with https://) are valid only for a certain period of time. If a website presents a certificate with validity dates that don't match the date on your computer's clock, Firefox can't verify that it is secure and will show you an error page.

Such issues can often be fixed by setting the correct date, time, and time zone on your computer system. If this does not solve the problem, it could be caused by other issues, such as a misconfigured web server or an expired certificate. Table of Contents

List of time-related error codes you may encounter Note: A Your Computer Clock is Wrong error page almost certainly means that your computer's clock is set to the wrong date. Some time-related errors will show a Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead error page, described in this article. For other time-related errors, you'll get a Secure Connection Failed or Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue error page, described here.

I just updated firefox today and everything zoomed out when it reloaded. The size of the fonts in the browser are all bigger.

Also when I go into my gmail or any website it's all zoomed out and I have the cut the size down each time.

What happened and how do I get back to my smaller default settings?

Thanks
