I need to change my email address as my provider is closing down. I have seen the suggestion that I make a secondary with my new address but this will nor work as I have the secondary address with the same provider.

I just added "TextArea" to my extensions & it only can be selected by clicking on the picture puzzle icon at the right edge of the address/search bar for a dropdown box of extensions. I would like to display it and a number of others now only on the dropdown on visible toolbars, but can't move them there. When I select "Customize," it shows some basic icons not being displayed, but only the basics and does not include extensions I've added recently. I used to keep icons in the All-in-One Sidebar on my left margin, the Vertical Toolbar on my right margin & the bottom Status bar in pre-version 57 FF and don't want the extra hassle of having to use the dropdown for commonly used extensions. How do I get these icons moved into an existing visual space on my browser? I have 3 36" HDMI screens & plenty of real estate to play with, but no way to use it in FF for new extensions. Do I have to continue to use alternatives like WaterFox Classic & Pale Moon?

A couple of months ago Outlook.com changed its "look." And instead of highlighting text, right clicking and and having the small MS window come up where you can click "paste," their own window came up and "paste" was not one of the options. So I had to use Ctrl v to paste.

But Outlook just added "paste" to their window. But it's not working in Firefox. But it does work in Chrome. Outlook will never address this, so what can FF do about this?

After update to Firefox 113, the width size of search-engine-textbox on Overflow Menu is no full size anymore.

Before update to Firefox 113 (version 112 or older), the width size is still normal: full size; like search-engine-textbox on Toolbar.

[3]: Firefox 113, customize mode, the width size of search-engine-textbox on Overflow Menu is now full size, link image: 3-Search engine textbox - on overflow menu - customize mode - full width

[4]: Firefox 113, after customize, the width size of search-engine-textbox on Overflow Menu is no full size anymore. The width is so narrow, link image: 4-Search engine textbox - on overflow menu - after customize - narrow width

[5]: Firefox before 113, screenshot of another post (2022-may-04), the width size of search-engine-textbox on Overflow Menu is now still normal: full size.

Please review and restore the width setting, same as version 112 and earlier.

Thanks and best regards!

P.S.: I posted this on " Mozilla Connect > Discussions" at this link: The width size of search-engine-textbox on Overflow Menu is no full size anymore, Firefox 113

I am trying to run firefox unofficially run a windows vista Virtual Machine using the Windows Vista Extended Kernel, but is says the the dll "api-ms-win-core-sysinfo-l1-1-0.dll" is missing. It did this a couple of times and i was able to copy over all other dlls, but after placing this one in Windows,System32,Program Files/Mozilla Firefox and SysWOW64 and re-registering it, it still gives me an error. Could you please provide the location of the required dll since it can't find it.

Block autoplay not working on 112.0.2. I've tried going into about:config and changing settings. Doesn't help. Also under "Settings \ Permissions \ Autoplay" shows default for all websites as "Block Audio and Video" and under Websites "About:Welcome" shows as "Allow audio and video." I've changed the About:Welcome to block audio and video. I've also tried clicking the Remove All Websites button to delete the exception. Neither works. I save changes, exit Firefox, and restart. Same settings as before, and autoplay still starts.

I have Dlink web cams. They are only accessable via a MyDlink app. The app is only compatible with Firefox 51 or 52. How do i get older versions running on my laptop?

For the love of God, can someone explain who thought it was a good idea to remove the option to sort bookmarks menus by name? Please do not suggest users to open the All bookmarks and using the View > Sort option because it's not permanent, such useless option only applies temporarily while that window is open.

What version must I downgrade to in order to recover the bookmarks sort by name? Because of course the option won't be recovered. Kindly explain who, and why did you decide it was very useful for the end user to delete this option.

Hello,

Recently, I discovered an issue with accessing my location. There are no problems indicated in the Event Viewer.

A program accessed information from a location sensor or default location

FriendlyName=Firefox; ImagePath=C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe; PID=9460;

But it didn't.

What could cause the problem?

Kind Regards!

With the latest version 112.0.2 NordPass stopped functioning properly. Will not autofill. This happens on all 3 of my computers 2 are windows 10 and a win 7). Other browsers (Edge. Brave etc) work fine. I have cloned backup of system disks. I booted from a backup drive, which has previous version of the browser. and NordPass works fine. I tried several troubleshooting steps: turned off all other extensions - complete uninstall of NordPass and did an install - lowered security protection - used CCleaner & Privazer to clean system after each step. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Firefox is is my default browser.

Recently I have had safe search forced on me, only on firefox, if I turn it off it is on again as soon as I search, it is not locked, I am in my 50's and I use my home wifi, home pc, as Inalways have. Any ideas please ?

I can hide the Menu bar but the space it occupied is still visible. I can use Full Screen to make it go away but I have an ultrawide monitor and don't want Firefox to take up the whole thing.

IS there another way to make the menu bar space disappear?
