I-Firefox Community Forum

Starting for last few updates (on the last month) each time I hold my mouse click button for a few seconds on any page I am greeted with this popup: (see attached)

Main question: How do i disable this popup?

Second, what is the feature even about? why is it a feature? and what is the point of it?

About: Firefox 146.0.1 (64-bit) - FF for Arch linux

Hi Mozilla Community,

I am running Firefox on Windows 11 and I'm encountering a strange issue regarding the UI updates.

The Issue: My Firefox browser updates automatically to the latest version. However, my Default Profile is visually stuck on the old UI design. It does not reflect the recent interface changes associated with the update.

The Troubleshooting Context:

• I have verified that the browser itself is technically updated (via Help > About Firefox).
• The strange part: I have other Firefox profiles on this same machine. When I launch those profiles, they correctly display the new, updated UI.
• This issue is isolated strictly to my main/default profile.

Has anyone experienced this mismatch where the version number is correct, but the UI fails to refresh on a specific profile? Is there a specific fix for this?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Firefox crashes whenever my computer goes to sleep. I am running windows 11 and have been for years. This problem showed up a few months ago. The crash then screws up other apps and I have to restart my computer to fix it.

When I try to log in to my account with Amazon Prime, Firefox freezes as soon as I hit the Continue button after entering the username and password. I can't open or close tabs or do anything. I don't have this problem with the Amazon account in any other browser.

Any ideas why this happens and how to fix it?

I typically use FF to log into social security accounts. I have not been able to use FF for a couple of months to log in to ONLY THAT SITE. I can on CHROME.

So I've been looking for the saved payment methods in my browser since I got a new card.

I realized that it is gone and that has 2 consequences for me.

1. I Cannot for the life of me remove the currently old saved one.

And

2. I do not want to save the new actual one, since I seem to have no control of my saved cards and will not be able to remove it.

Also I made Firefox stop asking, but it does not get the memo and keeps asking to save my new card.

So the common thing is that the saved cards should be in "about:preferences#privacy" under "Autofill" and there should be a button that says "Saved payment methods".

There is media on this. pictures etc. youtube videos and it is a box that appears when you press it unlike about:logins which is a tab in itself, so accessing it this way seems to be no option.

Doing some digging and found this article https://support.mozilla.org/kn/questions/1443578 It does not work for me being in DK.

Downloaded a older version of firefox 142.0 to be specefik and it does have to feature / Button but, it also does not have any data.

So what gives Mozilla? Why did you remove the button and why is the data locked away?

Included are images of current version (146.0.1) having the button removed and 142 having the button.

Why can't anyone fix this issue? Every day I have to go to about:config, enter "mica" then change from false to true or true to false to get these buttons to show up. It's ridiculous. I am currently using Firefox version 146.1 on Windows 11. Also, please note if I change the windows widget to true these buttons show up and are usable. The next days I have to change the windows widget to false and they show up and are usable so they work whether or not the widget is set to true or false. The problem is having to change the setting DAILY. I should not be having to do this.

When I encounter an embedded video on a website that plays, an icon to toggle picture in picture pops up in the URL bar (see attached image). I don't use picture in picture, and for some websites which have an "endless scrolling" experience with videos, such as reddit or facebook, it is slightly annoying that while I am focusing the middle of the screen, something changes in the top right, making me think a tab has an update and changed title. I have the picture in picture controls turned off in settings (one with the id=pictureInPictureToggleEnabled in general, my Firefox is not English), I thought it would also make said button go away but it does not.

im having issues with my tabs as there are now two sets of tabs one that is empty basically and seems to be treated as the main one and the other that is all my other tabs... but when i try to switch to them it switches my screen so other apps like games or messaging apps no longer are visible yet the still appear to exist

When I play YouTube videos in Firefox, the video stutters and drops frames, even when set to 480p. The audio continues to play normally. This issue does not happen in Chrome on the same laptop.

The problem started about a week ago. I’m using Firefox on Windows 11. Restarting Firefox did not resolve the issue. I’ve attached screenshots for reference.

Thank you to the volunteers for taking the time to help.

In Firefox, I have several windows open, each with many tabs. (And BTW, I love the Firefox tab-organization feature.) I would like to empty the cache and delete all cookies. Will that close the open tabs? Is there a way to delete the cookies, empty the cache and preserve all windows & tabs?

      Thank you!

Problem started with Firefox 146.0.1 Windows 11

1. Open outlook.com in FF browser (https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/). 2. Open any email. 3. No side scrollbar appears so you can't page down within email. Note: the Outlook folder scrollbar does appear and does work. 4. The within-email-item side scroll bar does appear from outlook.com opened in Edge browser. So this is a Firefox bug.

Have tried: a. Windows settings->Accessibility->Visual effects->Always show scrollbars = on b. Turned Adblock on and off for outlook.com c. Firefox settings autoscrolling, smooth scrolling tried all combinations.

Any fixes?

I just wanted create Account recovery key to keep my account more secure. So I did that + updated my password.

Now when I open the browser, it says account disconnected and that I need to create a new profile. I did that, but it started syncing from old chrome account with old extensions, bookmarks etc. Plus bookmarks from my phone.

I try to sign in and create new profile with the original profile settings that I want. But it keeps saying "This profile was previously synced to a different account". And now that I saved the bookmarks and made a third, fourth profile. Those don't work as it wants me to sign in. Only the 2nd profile that Firefox made me create which has the old extensions, bookmarks etc. It is missing a lot. So now I am just stuck in create profile loop. And cant use the one I want because I wanted more security? Do I need to uninstall and install again, would that help? I wish there was someone to talk to help me. I just want to use my original profile that I used earlier today to update the security settings.
