Firefox Community Forum

Hello, I originally installed Firefox in my work laptop and logged in to sync my stuff. Due to some company policies, I had to uninstall it. Eventually, I was able to overcome some oddities and finally could reinstall Firefox. But when I logged in, sync was neverending (matter of hours, if was just stuck); thus I refreshed it, but no luck whatsoever, still neverending sync. Tried a few refreshes and reinstalls until eventually everything was fine.

Unfortunately, during this process something must have been damaged as I lost most of my extensions and themes. So I decided to reinstall them one by one. For some of them everything went just OK, but some others (e.g. FoxyTabs) cannot be installed anymore, see screenshot. The path is:

1. Click add button
2. confirm I want to add the extension
3. that error is shown (translate from italian: An unexpected error occurred during the installation)

I really don't know what to do. Did my Firefox installation get corrupted or what?

Thanks a lot!

Hi I have lost all my bookmarks. I bought a new device. On downloading Firefox the the bookmarks toolbar was Google's. Now Firefox on my other devices has the the Google bookmarks toolbar. Help please.

Hey guys. Just bought a new pc with a RTX 4070 ti super GPU. FF is my browser, and when i google i see VSR is supported in FF. But watching videos in FF does not activate RTX VSR, it stays inactive in the Nvidea control panel.

When i use Chrome browser it works as it is supposed to, it says active and i can see the video quality is improved. Is the feature just broken in FF at the moment, or is there some settings i can change in FF to make it work today?

(i checked about:config and gfx.webrender.overlay-vp-super-resolution is set to true)

I have the same problem as described here [1]: when I open a markdown file in Firefox it uses itself as handler opening it in a new tab, which in turn opens it in a new tab, ... The solution suggested under [1] is how to make Firefox usable again, stopping it from open this particular markdown file. But it doesn't solve the actual problem: either Firefox is capable of rendering markdown in which case it should do it; or it's not in which case it shouldn't try. Does anyone have a thought on that?

It's a NIGHTMARE trying to read a web page! control C USED to work but they have messed with it and so it's really non functional as it only shows part of the page and HIDES a lot of it so that scrolling does not work! A real disaster now.

Google has it in for you and Duck Duck Go also, it's obvious a big war is going on and they do things to hinder. so wish you had not SOLD OUT THE MAIL. It is not better. I'd give a lot to go back to just how it used to be! No way am I doing any more updates! And I still get messages from others who say they agree with me.

They keep "updating" the internet but it is to take back the privacy we used to have. So many things don't work nice or right or even safe anymore!

I'm having a problem where certain websites does not show up as shortcuts on the startpage. Like for example reddit.com or twitter.com does not appear even though I visit those pages often and more than any other page. It doesn't make sense that a random website shows up immediately as I visit it once, but not the websites I visit often. So I have to type in manually in the search bar to get there instead of just clicking the shortcut on the startpage.

I COULD pin the websites on the startpage, but the pictures only show up as the automated pictures such as "R" or "T" for Reddit and Twitter respectively. I'm also having problems using my own pictures for the shortcuts and I'd rather fix the problem instead of having to pin websites as shortcuts. It also looks a bit ugly in my opinion.

This started happening after I switched Microsoft accounts on my PC and started using Firefox on another user account. By the time I switched, I was logged into the same account on two different users on my PC, and I synchronized several times. That other logged in user is now removed from my Firefox account and I also completely deleted the other user on my PC to free up space. I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and deleted all the files on my PC, but it still doesn't work. I have checked in about:profiles and it says there is a "default-release" and "default" profile.

Settings > Home > New Windows and Tabs > Homepage and new windows

This setting got reset on me last night. Using 127.0.2.

So, I set it to custom, add in a URL, close the settings, re-open the settings and see it is set.

I close my non-pinned tabs and then close the browser.

Upon opening the browser, I am greeted with an empty tab and the Setting has reverted to "Blank Page".

When I try to open an eMSN link in my Medicare account. It says that" Website will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it" I tried right clicking on the eMSN link to open it in a new window but that results on the same message. Thanks for your help.

Unable to connect

An error occurred during a connection to www.counterpunch.org.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the web.

So, what should the network connections be (I haven't a clue)! As far as I know the configuration has been automatic up to now; for all other sites it works just fine! Yours is esoteric and has lost me.

As you can see from the image, my fonts while using Google have gone completely haywire. The only thing i can possibly associate this with is the fact that I've been installing fonts onto my Mac for use within a new graphics design suite that I purchased. While i have been performing that task, i cannot possibly come up with a reason as to how this has happened. Google does not operate like this on Safari. I typically don't use Safari and I use any Google products as little as possible... my primary browser is Firefox .. i tried to reset the configuration using the info i found to reset Firefox to it's defaults... i even tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox... If the font had changed to something farily legible it wouldn't be so bad, but this horrific looking 'Asian style' font is barely legible.. any help would be greatly appreciated.

My PC uses Windowss 11 and I'm on Mozilla. My security programs are Malwarebytes Premium, Windows Defender.Security, and Acronis. There is an Extension called, 'Protect My Choices'. Love It! I have it on all my Browsers. It keeps alot of junk off from my PC. In all my other Browsers, in the Extension details it states "Automatically allow access on the following sites:" I just don't move the button over to on, and the Extension keeps all that junk off from my PC. In Firefox, the above statment and the botton is absent, and all that junk is allowed onto Firefox (Yikes!). I went through Mozilla's Help, Troubleshotting, and Search. I haven't been able to find any clue as to how I can get this Extension to work in Firefox. Any assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so for your time and consideraton of my sad saga

I can't remember how but somewhere along the way I got a tip about how to select this context menu search option not to conduct the search with it, but for the search phrase show up in the search field, after which a search could be conducted.

How do I undo this?

Some time back, for me, both browsers would crash frequently when open at he same time. Then, it stopped, but since I don't use Chrome very often, perhaps the behavior was still the in the right circumstances.

Happened today. I was working in Firefox, and had to open Chrome, and a sort time later Firefox crashed, with a crash message. Wouldn't restart.

After several minutes, I had to go to the Task Manager, to find about 20 Firefox processes still active in the "background processes", with one of them at about 31% cpu. A short time later, Chrome crashed.

Has anyone else seen this?

Something went wrong and I have had problems ever since June 20, 2024. I have tried to delete every facet related to and I cannot get rid of Firefox. I have used ever Uninstall I know available.
