The fucking forced dark mode has return despite the previous fix layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override = 1 in about:config fixing it for years. This and the current replacement fixes don't save. I want a solution for PERMANENT light mode (black text on white background) for ALL menus, pop-ups, dropdown menus and hover over tab info.

And don't tell me to go search for a different theme I've already spent hours doing that and firefox has broken them only making some menus use the appropriate mode. On top of that I can't even pick an option to search for one that uses light mode I just have to go through each one and try it if I want to know which mode it uses that is NOT a solution to anything.

Replacement "fixes" for reference: ui.systemUsesDarkTheme won't even let me set to 0 only has true/false browser.theme.content-theme set to 1 browser.theme.toolbar-theme set to 1 (Why in the absolute hell these were added when a simple addition to preference setting wasn't is beyond me)

Very sorry for the aggressiveness but I am so very VERY tired of having to fight firefox on this preferance for years when their dark mode hurts my eyes.

Can I get an explanation for what this does

Is it supposed to do something different than the windows taskbar mouse thumbnail

I saw no difference when enabled.

This is a feature request - not sure if it goes here.

I would like to arrange the toolbars in Firefox in the following order:

   Menu bar (top, with "File" on the far left and "X" on the far right, i.e. not centered)
   Bookmarks bar
   Search bar
   Tab bar

This can't be done currently. The best I can do is:

   Bookmarks bar
   Search bar
   Menu bar
   Tab bar

My request is that the user be able to arrange the position of the toolbars in any arbitrary order. Thanks!

I have every about:config and settings option set to recommended to prevent autoplay videos. NONE work with yahoo. The vids will drop to the lower right hand corner but even if I click on the close window X they still pop open again. And again. And again. Is there a solution to this arrogant, self-centered behaviour by yahoo?

Dear Firefox

I am writing to you as regards your current upgrade and its interface. The taps bar and tools bar are very wide, thus decreasing area below them. The cannot because customized with the little knowledge I have in development.

I jumped FF V90 to this current upgrade FF 131.03 because anytime I tried to upgrade, I find the Interface not to my liking due to what I have already described above. I have seen similar comments like mine on the browser comments. One user actually asked if FF interface to V 80.02 which I support for it is the best of Interfaces so far in the development of the FF browser.

I hope to hear from you soon before I take a decision to go back to FF V90.0.

P/S: My 2 email addresses:

Also in trying to upload Image of the browser for clarity purpose, I get this:

                                           Error uploading Image
                                           Invalid or no image received.

What is happening here about Uploaded images: Add images (optional), I cannot fathom. There is certainly a block somewhere on the Support page.

Kind regards.

There are 32 shortcuts on my home screen - 4 rows of 8 each. However, I accidentally "dismissed" one shortcut - now there are 31 total. I cannot figure out how to restore a shortcut. Is the solution in about:config (browser.newtabpage.pinned)?

Using 2025-04 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 10 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5055612) Firefox 138.0.1 (64-bit) and says it is up todate. I have looked at the about:config to find the browser.tabs.remote.autostart but it does not exist in the list of processes. I have also unchecked in settings both performance options intermitently to try and correct this problem, but nothing happens: (unchecked) Use recommended performance settings Learn more These settings are tailored to your computer’s hardware and operating system. (Unchecked) Use hardware acceleration when available Nothing pops up to allow choosing a different number as many support articles say. I have AdBlocker running as an add on and turned off the duck duck go privacy essentials and still nothing stops these insane amount of processes clogging up my computer. right now, on this page there is only this tab open and there are 13 processes running. Please send real fix instructions- thank you

after creating a new profile, and copying everything in the root directory to the new profile, including search.json.mozlz4, the default search engine setting does not get transferred over and is still set to google

Since the 133 upgrade, some sites don't show scrollbar anymore (and therefore scrollwheel also doesn't work.) Is this a setting? (very annoying...) Windows10/64bit version.

I'm using a Windows/Linux client called WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). I've installed Debian as my WSL OS and for a long time I had Debian version 10. Firefox worked fine with ver 10 but this morning I upgraded to Debian version 13 (which required me to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox).

Firefox still launches okay but I wanted to change my home page to Google. So I clicked the 3 lines at the top RHS which showed me a popup menu but none of the options was selectable. Eventually I twigged that to change settings I needed to launch Firefox using sudo.

I managed to change the home page okay but I then realised that if I launch Firefox without using sudo, my new home page is ignored. Conversely (if I launch using sudo again) Firefox launches at a tiny size and can't be re-sized (at least, not using my mouse cursor). I've attached a small screenshot.

All I can do is to display it full screen and then I can tell that the home page is indeed now Google. I don't remember having these problems previously so can anyone give me a clue as to what I'm doing wrong??

My browser is not working as it should. Several sites do not work anymore and the browser keeps crashing. I'd like to refresh the browser, but the button is missing. I tried going to troubleshooting mode, but the button is not there either.

Not sure if uninstalling would do the same thing? Just not sure what is the best way to refresh. Thanks for any help!

Hi

OK so I was having some issues with firefox where I had to reinstall it and this did in fact resolve the issues I was having.

Problem I have is this though when I reinstalled it I first backed up my chrome folder which had all my custom CSS to move the tabs to the bottom of the header area and when I then reinstalled FF I then copied the folder back into my profile folder using the More Info under the help menu to make sure I was in fact in the right profile folder.

Problem is the code isn't moving the tabs and I seem to remember some issues with this the last time we had to fix FF that something had changed with the Chrome folders and such.

So what do I need to do to get my tabs back on the bottom again as I hate them up top!

Version: 128.0.3

Thanks!

I have really liked using the "refresh" button with my Firefox browser. The "refresh" button has disappeared from one of my two Dell PC's (I use Windows Eleven, and my Dell PC's have solid state drive). I know there are two other "help" buttons ("troubleshoot mode" and "clear startup cache"). The "refresh" button has really helped me to keep my Firefox browser working properly with my two Dell PC's. Thank you for any comments you might have about this.

Hi,

After the last two updates, the **Pseudo-elements** tab in the Browser Console can no longer be closed once it has been opened, and vice versa.

Please see the video below demonstrating the issue:

Thanks.

What's up with this? Two fake Trust Wallet add-ins were disabled within the last couple of days after one stole my money and I reported it, and another similar one. They had been pinned to my toolbar and they were subsequently taken off from there with the message that they had violated Mozilla's policies. Now I see that again there are two of them. How can this be prevented? The most obvious sign that these are fake is when one goes to create a new wallet the add-in directs the user to import instead, i.e. it wants to steal private information like recovery phrase.

Firefox used to display an AI overview response at the top of the page when you asked a question. That feature has disappeared on my systems. I assume that is because of the new AI controls. Is that function still available? If so, how do I re-enable it on Windows 10? The only video I could find addressed it for Windows 11 but I'm not there yet.

I was using WhatsApp and i am facing problem. This account can no longer be used on WhatsApp. I have not done any such mistake on WhatsApp and my whatsapp is not working. It is very important to me. I follow all your rules and without doing anything here my whatsapp has stopped working. Please fix it quickly
