Firefox Community Forum

Ive been with Firefox since 0.4 20+years and am thinking of binning this browser. The Firefox updates wipe your bookmarks ,your page set up with the 4 rows and your preferred sites they then push in the boxes last visited or recommenced stories i had to reinstall and older version,get bookmarks from a different drive i have to get back to where i was.

  I have turned off updates but am continually bombarded with download latest version,Firefox used to be great ,you got what you want,no adds,no pushing stuff its starting to feel like google chrome.
  So before i bin it,is there any way you can save ALL your setting as you like them and reinstall them with your preferences as was?     If not i will give Duck duck go, a go as my new browser.

Here lately I have to double click almost everything to get it to load and firefox keeps slowing down and stops the page from loading ?? Need help to fix it !

Firefox recently caught a virus when I opened a supposedly reputable website, so I had to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Now, several of the previous features are gone. Most notably, the bookmarks icon (three bars) that used to drop down to show all my saved bookmarks now does nothing. In addition, I am no longer able to edit the names of my bookmarks. When I fill in the blanks in the "edit bookmark" function, the OK button is greyed out and not active.

Not sure why this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1400794 was archived.

Being archived I cannot "check mark" the question to show I too have this problem.

It is a basic problem and a piece of gravel in the shoe of many, I suggest, Firefox users who are developers.

Clearly, there is a need for a UI to navigate inspected content results and the original question author was exactly correct.

This is drip by drip making me want to end my return to Firefox and give up and use Chrome.

Even just an indication such as unarchiving the riginal post and linking to a "Pending to fix" Github issue would be a nice step.

Thank you Mozilla for all you do, and here's hoping this will get looked at.

Does Firefox not have what is needed for some secure sites. If I have to change browser to access my bank I might as well change for everything - but I have always supported the mozilla community

When syncing between two different firefox instances not on the same OS or computer which of them is the syncing from and to?

If I have one instance where I have Firefox on a different computer and another on a completely different computer which of them does Firefox know it's the latest one to sync from?

Hi all 👋 I'm using the Universal Credit website - https://www.universal-credit.service.gov.uk When I receive a message, sometimes there's a radio button to "Reply", which initially opens in the center of the page as normal, but as soon as I place the cursor in the box, it shoves it off to the side and shrinks it. This has been going on for a while, but as I found work for the last 6 months, I haven't been interacting with the site. I had to reply this morning and had the same issue, so I thought to try opening it in Chrome and had no such issue.

Before I go down the Nuclear route with the "Refresh" option, as I have enough on my plate already, does anyone understand this issue and have any idea for a fix for me, please?

Firefox is set to auto-update and reports that it is up-to-date. 128.0 (64-bit) The same for the Windows install Edition Windows 10 Home Version 22H2 Installed on ‎22/‎03/‎2022 OS build 19045.4651 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19060.1000.0

I have installed windows 11 23H2 to my pc and Firefox 128.0 (64-bit) and after re-installation that I made to my pc and installed Firefox, the Ctrl-shift-M does not working. A little research in google, drove me to refresh firefox, but the problem did not solved.

Any ideas of what I have to do to return this operation?

Thanks a lot.

The web browser does not open after restarting and logging into user profile on computer. It crashes and I have to keep refreshing for several minutes. Then I get a pop up to refresh firefox. It happens everytime I log out of computer and log back in. The web browser wont start

Here is the code, please fix
