Hi, is there a way to disable, or even better, remove entirely, the Google translate bar that is shown on some pages? See attachment. The image is from the following page: https://support.plex.tv/articles/share-and-report/

I have tried to modify 'browser.translations' related settings in 'about:config' page, but no luck so far. If I open the same link in Edge, page is shown without the bar.

Using Win 11 + Firefox 129.0.1.

Hey,

So my Question is is there any way to prevent Firefox to change the Profile after Updating. Because i work in IT thats why the Security is a Problem so i cant just leave an older Version on every System. The Problem is the Customer dont want to change it everytime.

I would really appreciate it if someone has an Solution. 😊

Hi,

In the older Firefox version (92), I could instantly open JNPL files by selecting "Open with Default Use JAVA (TM)". However, in the latest Firefox version 127, while the option is still available, it doesn't instantly open JNPL files. Every time I have to click to open the JNPL file.

What does the following error message mean and how can the problem be corrected?

XUL Runner Error platform version '129.01' is not compatible with minVersion>=129.0 maxVersion<=129.0

Thank you.

I have had this CPU for 8 months. I have had issues from day 1 with the stock Fedora install of Firefox where text is missing and some green and/or pink boxes appear where the text boxes should be. This has happened with all versions up to 129.0.

This has only been happening with Firefox. Vscodium, (chrome based) Brave and every other Wayland application including foot and freecad render correctly. it is only firefox and only firefox with this GPU. If I run Firefox under qemu without eGL then the rendering is good. If I run it under qemu and enable the virtioGL driver I get the same issue.

I attach a sample of a screen shot that shows that was captured from the frame buffer. In the bottom left corner, you can see quite a few characters missing.

I have seen other issues that say that it is a hardware problem, but I am not convinced. This happened with mesa-24.2.0. Find the glewinfo attached below: (Glewinfo log is very long, uploaded to Pastebin for better viewing) https://pastebin.com/raw/1NMnAjmc

Hello. I got a new pc and I am trying to sync my Mozilla account right now but I am not getting a the code to my email so I can not login to the account. The mail in question is *@cock.li that I have all my old data on.

2 DAYS AGO I got an XUL error notice in my UP TO DATE Firefox. Tried turning on or off at times hours apart no use.

Getting by with other browsers in the meantime. But today At about 1:40 PM CDLST 15 August 2024

my computer locked up completely. Several dialog boxes stacked up and mouse and keyboard were ineffective it gave a virus name which I did not write down and a purported Microsoft number to call but I ignored it. Turned off my computer turned on and ran scan with Malwarebytes software NO INDICATION OF INCIDENT

The help page advice for XUL does not have the assurance NOTED AT BOTTOM.

IS THE FOLLOWING TRUE FOR ALL REMEDIES INVOLVING UNINSTALLING AND REINSTALLING FIREFOX? INCLUDING XUL ERRORS?

ASSURANCE The solution is to remove the Firefox program and then reinstall Firefox. (This will not remove your passwords, bookmarks or other user data and settings which are stored in a separate profiles folder.)

Lately I have been having low memory warnings, but still have some things I can dump to make room.

I came here to open a subject that I will address later, but the situation I just encountered here may be related in some way.

I clicked "Ask a Question" here, after which and the page opened to this.

I did not upload the two "uploaded" images you see at the bottom to this thread. They were actually used in my previous post, but immediately upon opening this post, they were already there.

I cleared cache and cookies, relaunched, but they still remain.

BTW. wasn't there a "Preview Post" option here before? Not now, at least for me.

EDIT: Now, after I just posted, the "Preview" button is there. But why, if there is no reply to preview? It's still not here in "edit" mode.

Most tabs that I open now crash. This has been a steadily building problem that now has made the system basically unusable. I did try clearing history, cookies, etc., but that did not help. Even working tabs can crash when I go back to view them. It doesn't matter if it is a saved site, or a brand new one typed in.

I started this thread because I believe it may be related to these problems/failures I'm having with exporting /importing Bookmarks, uploading images (on this site and elsewhere), which has also on occasion led to crashing my pc. Images from my previous thread auto-uploaded to this thread. I felt it might be better to separate the conversations until we get motre info.

Thru trial and error, it seems all these symptoms I will describe seem to be linked to my sessionstore.jsonlz4 file.

About six months ago I was having major problems with Firefox, navigation issues, broken toolbar buttons, blank toolbar button spots. I first tried to revert to a good working backup profile, which was fine until I did the file transfers from the problem profile to the backup, after which all the symptoms resurfaced in the backup profile. . I do what I always do by transferring certain files, but only those that make the transition without creating problems/conflicts; sessionstore.jsonlz4; places, cookies, etc.

I eventually chose to build a fresh profile, but the same problems occurred after the file transfer. Thru trial and error, I discovered that sessionstore.jsonlz4 was the root of the problems. I eventually went back and used the sessionstore.jsonlz4 from the backup file, but it was a real ordeal getting my session back up to date.

A couple weeks ago I started having problem here uploading images. I would select the file, but nothing would happen, and I was getting all these strange side effects.

But a few days later, Once again, I swapped out the profiles, these sorts of things started happening is what started happening when I tired to export/import bookmarks

link text

If I move the cursor over the top of the screen, a bit more appears

link text

I'm writing in the backup profile now, because trying to upload from here or from Postimage, generates only these,

link text

or various distortions, i.e., but no ability to go any further in the process

link text

I didn't have any problem transferring the history, cookies, or bookmarks to this backup profile, but how do I go about fixing this without sacrificing the session. Is there a way to import only the session tabs without bringing in the corrupting elements?

BTW, still no "Preview Post" link on this page unless I submit this message first.

I've been using Firefox for years on Windows 10 and earlier, and I just got a new Windows 11 laptop. On the new machine my bookmarks sidebar doesn't persist. I launch Firefox and open it, but when I exit Firefox and launch it again the sidebar is gone. I have to re-open it every time. This is not the behavior I experience on my other machines. Is there a setting in about:config that I need to change?

Hi,

It's been a while since this problem first occurred but I am now very sure that this is about Firefox and not about graphics driver. This happens both when the hardware acceleration is turned on and turned off.

When I open a website that has mainly images or videos, the browser goes blitz (Reddit, Twitch, etc.). Screen splits to multiple views, it starts flickering and continues until I switch to another tab or quit Firefox. For flickering to stop, I need to restart the computer. I can also send a video if you can communicate a proper way of sharing. (Drive link, youtube, etc.)

Is there any way I can ensure Firefox does not break things on my computer?

Thanks
