Hello, the Secure Connection Failed started up after one of your recent updates. It is affecting News Max and my banks internet banking software. Both sites work fine in MS Edge. The fix I read on your site said to try this: "In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.

   Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
   copy the next security.ssl.enable_ocsp_stapling and paste it in the search field
   double-click on it to make it false
   close the page, exit firefox and restart it. "

Doesn't work for me. What else can I try?

Take care, Doug

I'm Trying to Upload my Extenion to Firefox, Before last step It asked abour 2 Fact. Auth. So I Setup Auth with Google Authenticator. But It failed and Failed, Help me to resolve this.

Latest version of FF. Using Win11 on a modern desktop PC. This is the first time this ever happened; fortunately I keep an updated local copy of my bookmarks on my NAS. Just started happening today. Both my W11 and W10 machines suffer the same malady. So it appears to be a FF issue.

I restore my corrupted bookmarks from my NAS, but as soon as my PC syncs, they are all corrupted again. It's like one of my bookmark folders absorbs all the bookmarks from sync as one long mixed up list.

Anyone else having this issue? If so, is Mozilla aware of the issue?

I switched to Firefox from Chrome recently. When I attempted to login to Facebook using Firefox, I got a message that FB had deleted my account for violating community standards. However, my FB account is still active and accessible when I log in using Chrome. I deleted Firefox, then reinstalled it, but I still get the same message about FB on Firefox -- that my account has been deleted. Can anyone help?

I know from visiting other forums that updates to Firefox have been released, but MSIX is not installing them - or even notifying me, much less asking if I want to install them. For example, Help > About Firefox shows that I am running V.129.0; yet I'm pretty sure that V.120.0.2 has been released.

Why? What can I do to ensure that I'm running the latest release?

I've restarted Firefox to see if that would work. It did not. I haven't rebooted to see if that works; but, even if it does, that seems to be a rather drastic effort to install a new version.

I use Sync on multiple computers for passwords. I have forgotten the Primary password on one of them. If I do a password reset on the one computer, does it affect the passwords stored on the Sync server, or maybe just the key4.db and logins.json folders on the computer being reset? I will not do a reset if the Sync'ed passwords could be affected, I'll just look them up on my phone. Thanks for your help!

Working on an iMac:

Yesterday, the Firefox browser started running insanely slow. So slow that we couldn't begin to use it anymore. We had to reinstall the Firefox browser a few times to get it working again.

Also, the Firefox Dev Edition browser, randomly crashed. Since then, it hasn't opened once for me. I've reinstalled the browser multiple times. Each time I attempt to open it, nothing happens, so we have to force close it.

Until today it worked fine. But now whenever I try to login to Xfinity I get You don't have permission to access "http://login.xfinity.com/login" on this server. It works fine on Chrome and Edge. I have disabled my add-ons. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc. I have rebooted. I have turned off firewall. I have checked my DNS. I have changed the DNS protection to OFF in Firefox. I have checked my proxy setting (I have no proxy). I have reinstalled Firefox. Etc. Etc. Nothing works. The fact that it works on Chrome and Edge, that it has worked everyday until today gets me confused. I also tried using my mobile phone as a hot spot to make sure it wasn't related to my Internet connection or IP address. Anyone have any ideas?

cnbc.com will not allow me to sign in to my account. They want me to disable ad blockers, etc., except I don't have any ad blockers installed. Other times they deny my sign-in saying RECAPTCHA validation failed. I don't know if it has something to do with Mozilla Firefox or my virus protection (Bitdefender and Malwarebytes). The problem doesn't come up if I use another browser, like Google Chrome.

Across the top of my screen every one of my tabs just reads DuckDuckGo.

Instead of having the DDG logo and then the search I entered when the new tab opened, there is now no way to see what is on the tab. Even when I hover over the tab it still just says DuckDuckGo.

When I click on the plus button to add a tab, the tab opens with a blank page, which is how I have it set up. The logo on the far left of the tab is for Firefox.

DuckDuckGo is my default search engine, so after I type something into the search bar at the top in Firefox, the results are displayed from DDG, and the tab changes from Firefox logo + "New tab" to DDG logo + "DuckDuckGo".

After running scannow and chkdisk on my Win 11 laptop, the fonts for menus and toolbars in Firefox (not for web pages) is unreadably small (about 6pt). I have tried adjusting layout.css.devPixelsPerPx, ui.textScaleFactor, and browser.display.os-zoom-behavior to recommended valus as well as above or below values. So far, no help. Please advise.
