On that piece of crap Windows 11 I keep getting the "Can't get your tabs back". I get it EVERY TIME I open firefox. I have uninstalled (several times), deleted directories and tried the "Refresh Firefox" and nothing works. I do not have this issue on any of my Linux computers. I only have a few programs left that I need Windows for so I guess I need to look at dual booting this computer.

Is that ANY way to do a clean install of firefox? I keep getting the you have installed firefox before message when I try to reinstall. I really really really don't want to have to do a clean install of windows to try to fix this.

On Firefox for Windows the touch and pen logic is a mess. When I hover over something with the pen or scroll using touch, Firefox seems to make both elements hover and triggers even JavaScript related code at very high rate. These 2 elements are where the real mouse/cursor is on the screen and where the currently touching or hovering over element is. For example rest your mouse on the YouTube HTML5 player, then use a pen to hover over the browsers close button or even just something else on the web page like the like button. This will ramp up the CPU and make both the player and the like button your are hovering flicker between ::hover and ::normal. This will also call lot's of instances of these related events in the website's JavaScript. Another semi-related issue is when using the F12 developer tools in "Device Simulation" mode, It's impossible to for some reason because Firefox fakes real touch injections into the OS (and they show up as if I touched the screen by the OS) which cancels the precision touchpad input movement until I lift my finger from the touchpad. This is specifically a "Windows Precision Touchpad" issue, and There is no known fix to this apart from not using a such a touchpad... On old 10+ year old laptops with PS/2 or proprietary Touchpads that report themselves as a normal Mouse this issue won't occour but Firefox will still input system-wide touch input. As a developer myself this seems very silly because you own the source code and could solve this way more elegantly than asking the OS to input Touch events... Let me know if you need anything else, and point me out where the source for the input (specifically for touch and pen) live so I can take a look at it and make some improvements. Thanks

I use the Search Box on the top line of Thunderbird. I have been double-clicking the box to get to a full-page search entry (Duck-Duck-Go).

As of today (6-Aug-24), this no longer works. The only places to search are the address bar, or a very short search bar.

Did this change in the last update? Can it be restored?

Thanks, Lex Rutter Idaho

I am using Firefox for Windows (and Android and IOS) on multiple machines. Copy to clipboard works fine on all platforms except on Microsoft Surface 5 laptop running Firefox 128 (and now 129). I have tried re-installing, re-installing from MS store, refreshing, starting in troubleshooting mode, refreshing, deleting all user profile data and create a new profile etc. with no joy.

I can select text from the address bar, or the search bar, or from within a website; the option is there to copy (I tested CTRL-C, as well as right click and choose copy), but nothing is actually getting copied to the clipboard.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm using version 129 of Firefox for Android on a Galaxy S23+. I've used Microsoft Authenticator before to sign into Firefox Sync and Firefox Account.

Today it won't accept the MS Authenticator code. I also tried one of the backup codes and that didn't work either.

With either option above that I tried, I'm directed to a screen that reads: "Did you use the system camera? You must pair from within a Firefox app." This is the URL: https://accounts.firefox.com/pair/unsupported?showReactApp=true&deviceId=1eb2f6829ea748a4b9975e16e8584e74&flowBeginTime=1722955970609&flowId=ab2a1ddc80b9a6e6b68e2b7f20ce7546f5333f91d6a63712eaa4c4860f21d0c0&context=fx_desktop_v3&entrypoint=preferences&service=sync&uid=581fc07c2eb44d6ba8b28f9398cde1ce&prefillEmail=ezrway%40gmail.com&email=abeeler2489%40gmail.com&hasLinkedAccount=false&hasPassword=true&showSuccessMessage=true

There are no other options on this page. I attached a screenshot.

Thanks in advance! Andrew

There is a certain wiki site I visit which changes it's theme based on the game the wiki is about. I'm trying to change the color of the links on the website because they are the same color as the text so it's impossible to see which are links. I want to change only this websites link/text color.

I have opened about:config and tweaked browser.anchor_color

browser.visited_color.

This doesn't change the website link color im trying to change because the site sets it's own color for links and text.

Assuming it works the same on mobile as on the desktop, these color settings only get applied when a site doesn't define its own colors (i. e. basically never nowadays) - unless you explicitly set Firefox to override the sites' settings (`browser.display.document_color_use` set to "2", which corresponds to selecting "Always" from the dropdown menu in the color settings).
