Firefox Community Forum

HI! I have my phone synced to my destop firefox, and just synced my laptop, microsoft windows 11.

everytime I want to access a synced page, like gmail, or my trading brokers page, it asks me to login again, so its synced, but have to relogin every time I open the firefox browser, or even when I simply close the tab. I never have to log in repeatedly on the desktop.

Also, my favourite extension Tab Stash, is missing features in this firefox browser. I have tested everything to get it to work, including clearing the cache, restarting. normally you can right click a firefox tab like the attached image, and choose "open Tab Stash in a Tab". and other options. but they dont show in this synced version of the browser. Very weird and frustrating. I must get this to work as I manage hundreds of saved tabs and folders through Tab Stash which is only available on Firefox.

I dont know how to contact the extension creator, I cant see any contact link on his gitHub.

I have tried multiple media players and I have the same issue with all of them

Whilst playing a downloaded video - as soon as I open a new window to perform a search - the video stutters and the playback is slurred for a couple up to several seconds

Started on VLC so I tried PotPlayer instead same issue

Thanks in advance

Is there any way to move the download thing to the bottom like it used to be in old Chrome? Just gave up on that PoS after 20+ years, it keeps being updated by windows 10, but I know nothing about Firefox.

    Also, is there a way to set it to auto open zip or rar files when I download them? That would bypass the problem of wanting to move that stupid tiny arrow.

Find that at each update, the Startpage search engine is re-installed WITHOUT my permission. I understand startpage can be defined as a PUP, and I don't trust it. The most aggravating thing is that installing add-ons and extentions without users' permission is unconscionable.

Would like to know if there is any way I can block the reinstallation of this at each update.

Thanks.

Hello.

I am a linux user.

I updated firefox yesterday. I am using several profiles for my convienience, and exactly one (1) lost its ability to create new history, all the saved passwords, and all the plugin data. Along with the message "another application is using firefox file", which sadly give no useful details about anything.

I have done a backup of that profile, and poked a bit at it ; all files seem here and are apparently correct. In particular, login.json is not corrupted, and I could add new passwords, which would appear in that file, but the 100+ passwords that I had before are invisible

I have tried to see if firefox give any useful logs, but found none both on command line and in journalctl. Do you know how/where to find out what firefox don't like in the profile files ?

I would *very much* like to not lose my passwords and login so it's my main area of concern.

Hi,

My laptop had broken and I had to reinstall Windows. All of my files had been lost on the C drive, including Firefox bookmarks. Sadly there weren't any backup json files anywhere else. Is there a way to recover those bookmarks somehow?

Thank you, János

How to I delete three Fire Fox icons found in Apps? Two show up in the taskbar tray and I am constantly being asked if Fire Fox should be my Default.

Also, refreshing Fire Fox changed all my options. For example, when Fire Fox opened, there were two rows of internet choices from "mail" to "dictionary"; now, a plain white screen.

I'm about to give up on Fire Fox and follow the herd with Microsoft forever! It seems every time Microsoft has an "update", two things happen: I have problems with Fire Fox and my phone rings off from folks I've never done business with; any connection?

Thanks in advance for your help. Computers are a necessary evil!

Hi.

Every time Firefox updates it signs me out of all my open tabs. Until Firefox can do updates without signing me out of everything I do not want to update. How can I stop updates for Version 132.0.2 (64-bit)?

Thanks.

Recently Firefox has been randomly crashing the past 3 weeks multiple times, Is anyone else having this odd issue ? I'll be watching a stream or youtube video and bam out of no where the Browser goes black for like 20 or 30 seconds then crashes. I sent in about 3 crash reports and wondering if the Firefox team is aware of this issue.

Firefox doesn't look or act anything like my firefox did before the most recent update. My Roboform extension/add-in is now not installed/active and I can't figure out a way to enable it. It shows up in the list of extensions as disabled, but there is no button or explanation for why it was disabled - even when I use the instructions on your help section.

Two questions: How do I get my Roboform and other extensions enabled?

How do I turn off auto update with Firefox? These kinds of change without notice are unaccesptable.

How do I get rid of these constant firebox pop ups that block tabs that I have open. it is EXTREMELY affecting my ability to use my laptop. I WANT TO KNOW HOW STOP THIS BS

Today when I launched the browser, a sidebar appeared. No matter what I tried, I can't remove it, it really gets in the way, I searched for information all over the Internet, but I still couldn't find any information. How can I remove the sidebar?

All of a sudden, when I'm on eBay, a lot of the hot links, embedded on an eBay "for sale" item don't work. Sometimes, when I (repeatedly) hit "Reload Current Page", they start working, or become "hot", as they should be. I wrote eBay, but no response. I don't know, if it's their problem, or something wrong with Firefox. Thanks, in advance, David

Why is there no price tag icon for Review Checker in the search bar for Amazon and Walmart? (I am signed in to Mozilla, and I tried turning off all my adblockers and Privacy Badger.)

Thank you for your suggestions!

I view movies and tv series on Amazon Prime and others every night . Suddenly I no longer can. On Prime I get a msg. saying I must update ff. It tells me the process and I have done it at least 6 times. When I go to 'about Firefox it tells me that I am already up to date, have version 115.18 esr. I am on a Dell Business computer, Vostro 470. Windows 7, service pak 1. Processor is i5-3450CPU @3.10GHz. RAM 400 GB , 4 processor cores. 64 bit. Prime disk466 GB 395 GB free. I'm a senior lady, not very computer literate. I have a ton of duplicate files but don't know which to remove. If I got help I could free up a lot more space. I watch everything on my computer monitor. I don't understand as the esr was supposed to allow us to continue. Please help as I am pretty homebound and this is about my only entertainment.
