I've searched and found problems similar to mine yet different, mine is specifically certain symbols appearing as crossed out rectangles; and when copy pasted here, they appear as so [ ᅠᅠ ]

I've already verified that 'gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled' has been set to true, and made sure that 'Allow pages to choose their own fonts' has been checked.

I've also tried disabling and enabling the Extensions I have installed, and they had no effect on the issue.

Booting Firefox in Safe Mode also has this issue, whereas Chrome does not. Therefore, I'm wondering if this is a Firefox issue that can be fixed or not.

When I right click, the contextual menu opens where the mouse is and what is under the mouse is automatically selected and executed, closing immediately the contextual menu and doing something I didn't asked for. How to not get that?

This question is asked too here https://forum.kde.org/posting.php?mode=post&f=304

Since the last update, I can't scroll with up down arrows on laptop. Either is doesn't work at all or brings you to the bottom of the page. This happens on any website.

When I try to use the ctrl+shift+t shortcut to restore previously closed tabs, it only restores what tabs were closed in the active window. If I have multiple Firefox windows and I close a tab in a window, I have to have that window selected to restore the tab, I can't restore it from another window. If I close an entire window by accident with multiple tabs I can't restore them with the shortcut. Chrome lets you restore an entire group of tabs and restore from other windows, not only in the current window. Is there any way to modify the behavior so it acts like chrome?

hi ,

Ive installed a fresh copy of windows 10 on my pc , when installed Firefox , forgot my account password , and didnt now before about the recovery code , so simply I reset the password and logged in to my account , but !!!! I lost all my bookmarks & saved logins . is there any way to get them back again ?

I used a friend's Macbook a few months back and then weeks later he asked me in passing "Why can I see all of your search history?" I really didn't understand his question at the time and wasn't sure what he was referring to. Fast forward to last week and my friend's Mac was stolen. The question he asked in passing now became crystal clear - I had logged onto my Firefox account from his Mac and didn't log out. I have been searching for a way to "Log out of all devices" but have not found a solution. I've read that I can go to that computer I would like to un-sync and log out OR change my Firefox password then change ALL of my other saved passwords. Certainly there must be a simple way to force any device using my account to input the new password next Firefox is accessed.

The timezone on my Gmail and a few other sites automatically changes to Africa/Abidjan time on Firefox. This is not an issue with my device as I've checked the timezone on system preferences and it is correctly set to my local time. Additionally, the timezone appears to be correct on other browsers. I checked Firefox on another device and found the same problem.

What is with Firefox lately. Endless problems with screen sizing, light dark mode. But what is really pi**ing me off is the inability to connect to certain web pages. No I don't have a any spyware or viruses (I have scanned with 3 different programs) and I have no problems with connecting to the pages with Chrome or Edge. I'm getting the error messages

Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to www.amazon.ca because this website requires a secure connection.

Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to www.ebay.ca. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details. Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to www.google.com because this website requires a secure connection.

Did Not Connect: Potential Security Issue Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to www.google.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

And I get the same warning with Amazon, eBay, my email client Shaw Mail, Google Search, and several other pages that require a login. Is there anything I can do to fix this as I'm really starting to rethink my preferred web page browser?

Entering onedrive , I can see all folders, except recycle bin.

Entering recycle bin, I get error 103.

Doing same steps to enter onedrive thru Edge, I get no error.

There must be an incompatibility of onedrive thru firefox.

I also cleaned registry with CCleaner, without any success.

Please inform me of how to proceed.

Kiedy w końcu nowe karty przestaną same się przenosić do nowych okien?

When new tabs opened in new tab they will stop opening by themselves in new window?

I want to add a custom Google search but there is no obvious way to do this. Firefox for Android will just let you enter the search URL and name it. Chrome also allows this.

Firefox will not download anything from any website. Any time I try to access pdf, jpeg or what ever all I get is "download failed". I always need to resort to Edge to get it, ready to be done with Firefox. Any suggestions for someone who is only mildly technical? I have tried opening in Firefox and Adobe, tried saving instead, nothing works

I have autoplay set to no. www.yahoo.com news page starts playing when i go to a story and its annoying. how do i stop these commies from playing videos? thanx

The blank sheet comes up with a tab, but it just sits there. It can take a couple of minutes to actually load the home page. After that it generally works fine, but that initial start is frustrating. Could it have anything to do with McAfee LiveSafe? I know this used to be an issue many years ago with Norton Antivirus.

When I'm on a web page, I'd like to be able to drag or copy the URL, with its associated name, from the address bar into Onenote. When I do that now I only get the URL in Onenote. I can get both the URL and name if first I drag the URL to the bookmark bar and then I drag the bookmark into Onenote.

Does anyone know a way to get it done in one step?
