I turned on my PC after a long time, and it seems something about firefox has changed in the way I don't like. The logo to the extreme left of the address bar which shows "This time search with" options on left-click is annoying to the eye. Picture attached below. Is there anyway you can remove/disable that logo with about://config or anything else.

Using latest version of Firefox on linux.

Hello there！ I recently updated Firefox to 137.0.1. But the update doesn't automatically display the status bar when you hover over the bottom of the page. I had to resize Firefox to make it full screen to display the status bar properly. This makes it difficult for me to use Firefox. I'm pretty sure this is due to a version update. This problem occurred after I updated the Firefox browser, during which time my Windows system was not updated. Is there any solution? Or how can I download a previous version of the browser?

Svp, comment changer la couleur de la barre latérale ?

La mienne était toujours blanche, mais vient de changer à mon insu pour du bleu ...

Merci de m'aider.

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.

I have my desktop extended across two displays. If I disable Hardware Acceleration in Firefox, entering fullscreen causes the window to be slightly offset down and right, leaving a thin band on the top and left sides of the screen where the desktop background and taskbar are visible behind the Firefox window.

From testing I have determined that this issue does not occur if I only have one monitor enabled or the monitors are mirroring the same display. I have also determined that the issue only occurs when Hardware Acceleration is disabled.

How do I minimize the web page when I don't see the usual icon at the top of the page. Now, I've attached a screen shot that does not show any icon of other means of minimizing that screen. I'm running Windows 11 and WORD 2021.

The screen appears on Opera and Google Chrome with the icons. Thanks.

There is a black box on the top left corner whenever firefox is maximized. This problem appeared when I got my new computer screen (Asus 27" TUF Gaming VG27AQ1A, 170Hz WQHD). My old computer screen (23.6" VE247H LED, Full HD, 2ms, 10M:1) didn't have this issue.

Any help how to fix this issue?

I am so tired of the stupid banner popping up every time I put something into full screen, that says "press escape to exit full screen".

Is there a way to disable that?

I am on a windows 10 PC.

When i watch netflix,youtube and etc i cant go fully full screen. i see my desktop wallpaper a small bit on the side and top of my monitor. i only had problems with firefox this way. before i usually could just go out and in to full screen and it would fix but now i cant and its really iritating

Yesterday morning i had sidebar bookmarks. Then when I turned my desktop back on in the evening it was gone. I have a few "tabs" on top which I do not like at all. I can't find my bookmarks, other than recent ones. How can I get my bookmarks back on the sidebar? I need some sort of fix please, to get my bookmarks back on the sidebar where they were.

Hi,

When I first open Firefox, everything will be normal. But after opening a menu (e.g. dropdown from the bookmarks bar, or downloads menu next to address bar) for the second or maybe more time, the menu will show up in the wrong location, maybe halfway across or down the screen. I am usually able to bring my mouse over to where it is shown and click the buttons, although sometimes the buttons show a hover animation when my mouse is where they are *supposed* to be and I must reopen the menu to be able to interact with the buttons where they are actually shown. Contracting the window fixes the problem, but it comes right back when I maximize the window. It will also happen with tooltips, such as the name of a tab when I hover over it.

I am using Fedora 42 GNOME Wayland with two monitors, one at 125% scaling and other at 100% scaling; the issue happens on both, but independently of each other. I have tried enabling the Firefox setting for fractional scaling, but nothing was fixed. Any way to make menus show up where they are supposed to?

Hi,

I recently set a custom background image for the Firefox new tab page (and possibly the homepage), but now I’d like to remove or replace it.

I’ve already tried:

   Going to about:config and enabling the following:

       browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabWallpapers.customWallpaper.enabled → true

       browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabWallpapers.ui.enabled → true

   Searching for a gear icon or any UI options on the new tab or homepage – but nothing appears.

I also checked about:preferences#home but there are no visible options to manage background images.

How can I remove or change the custom background image? I’d appreciate instructions, config paths, or a file location where I can delete the image manually.

Thank you! p.s. I'm stuck with a background image that makes my shortcuts unreadable and it's driving me crazy. 😅

On my first PC, I have this specific sidebar icon in my toolbar. When I click it, the sidebar opens with Gemini ready to go. Perfect.

But on my second PC, that specific icon is nowhere to be found. Even when I go to "Customize Toolbar," it’s not in the list of available buttons. The only thing I can use is the generic "Sidebar" button, which is annoying because it doesn't open Gemini directly, it just opens the general sidebar and I have to click again.

I provided an image, where the first icon is what I want, but only second icon is available.

Latest FF update changed the background of my bookmarks toolbar to a dark gray.. And made the text BLACK! Practically unreadable! Previously the toolbar was BLACK (Real 000 black) and the text was white.. As is my desktop.. Much easier on old eyes this way.. Is there a fix for this? I couldn't find one in Settings.. I've been using Firefox since the early days and XP.. I'm too old for more learning curves.. Help! (And thanks for wading through what's turned out to be another epistle.. Young men dream dreams.. Old men tell stories..It's an old guy thing.. )

I need to see my extensions in the browser bar!!!! Why did you remove this feature. Super annoying. If I click where the extensions should be I get taken to (see screenshot) other screenshot are my extensions that I have to go into Firefox/settings/Manage Firefox themes in Extensions & Themes. It does absolutely no good if I cant access my extensions such as Video Downloader

The book mark side bar has become very dark ( BLACK ) since the your latest update and is not really visible. How do i change the writing so that it can been easy read ( WHITE )
