Firefox Community Forum

Hi All,

A few of my sub-folders within my bookmarks do not show up in the Toolbar and Sidebar. The same bookmarks' sub-folder are present in the Bookmarks library (that's accessed from Firefox settings).

Could you please help with how I can get these sub-folders to show up in the Toolbar/Sidebar, please.

Thank you.

The issue appeared about two days ago. On the page https://index.hu/ the left click is not working from firefox. This is the most popular news site in Hungary. I also experienced the issue on other sites.

It is working fine from chrome and chromium. The issue is appeared on linux and windows 10 machines as well.

I tried to clear the cache but it does not help.

Please fix this ASAP or I have to delete your browser.

Good day!

I can not open wheely.com on my laptop - as I am working from home today, and it is crucial for me to have an access to this web-site. Just a couple of weeks ago, everything was fine. Now the mistake is PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR

Could you please check it ASAP and help me out?

Best regards, Daria.

I am not able to download any kind of file, from any kind of website to my disk. I am able to select open on the download dialog, and this will open the file and save it to the temp directory firefox uses for this function, but this does not save the files to disk/the download folder like I want to. I am unable to "Save image as..." as well, since this is considered a download. There is no record of these downloads even being attempted in the download history.

So I read on Reddit the intentions of Google with Chrome and adblocker add-ons, and I was worried because Brave (my Android browser until today) is based on Chromium as well. I've always been a Firefox user on desktop, and now on mobile as well since the dev team fixed the rendering errors of Firefox on Android. Ok so here goes my question: I've installed Brave on desktop (Linux) since I want my saved mobile login data on Firefox as well. So I exported a plaintext (unencrypted) *.csv file from Brave desktop and I am unable to import it onto Firefox (also on desktop).

I'm aware of the about:config key to be able to import CSV files to Firefox password manager, and is set to True. But the file does not import at all, so I opened the Browser Console and this is the logger output when I try to import the CSV file(screenshot also available):

``` eval() and eval-like uses are not allowed in the Parent Process or in System Contexts (Blocked usage in “chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js”) d3.js:2040:16

call to Function() blocked by CSP d3.js:2040

   parse chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js:2040
   parseRows chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js:2088

   importFromCSV resource://gre/modules/LoginCSVImport.jsm:161
   InterpretGeneratorResume self-hosted:1458
   AsyncFunctionNext self-hosted:668

``` Then I looked into a CSV file generated by Firefox and it has the password hashed, so how do I need to proceed?

Is there any tool to convert the CSV contents?

Really, I want to use Firefox on all my devices but this change (for good) came from nowhere...

Hope someone has had this issue and can help me.

Is there a way to make Firefox open with a fixed size? It currently opens with the last size. I frequently resize a window for a specific site, but don't need subsequent windows to open to that size.

Hi! Since downloading Win 11 a few weeks ago into my 1.5 yr old Lenovo laptop, a new problem has been occurring only in Facebook and only as an Admin in three private groups in Facebook. When I try to post in those groups, the pale blue Post button is AWOL. I can post in any other Facebook field, just not in my own groups. This never occurred in Win 10. Pretty inconvenient for an Admin/Moderator. (I can answer others' posts in those groups; just can't post independently)

I happened to try running Firefox in Test mode and the problem went away, but that Test mode does away with Facebook Container. Alternately I can run Facebook in either MS Edge or Chrome, which also ends the problem, but I loathe both so those aren't real options.

So far I seem to be the only person reporting this bug. What can you great people suggest as a fix?

Huge thanks from a non-Geek.

[Firefox 104.0.2 Linux 64x] Memory leak when Ctrl+S

After Ctrl + S, hundreds save dialog shows up and stack together. You can see the shadow effect on the edge of the dialog box is darkened due to stacking of the dialog boxes. CPU usage will jump to 110%.

Not sure what causes this...

I'm running Debian Stretch and the packaged version of Firefox (91) runs fine but seems a bit dated. I installed ver. 104 manually and everything is fine except that there is no audio. I changed the setup Privacy and Security Autoplay to 'Allow Audio and Video' -- no audio. I've restarted in troubleshoot mode -- no audio. Other browsers, including ver. 91 of Firefox have no trouble with audio. Any ideas? On quitting I get these messages:

Hi,

Where is my all data like bookmarks history and other settings? I recently installed my windows, and then I install FireFox again, I logged into my account and there is no data.

I can manually save copies of Bookmarks with export to a file. Where does Firefox save them, how often, when, and where are the 15 backups. Would like the safety of copying and saving to an off computer drive.

Now remembering, I see them from: Help, Trouble Shooting Information Mode, Profile Folder (Open) then bookmarksbackup Folder. Should I then save the most recent dated version?

After Firefox crashed today I restarted it and I got a session and tabs that I last used over a month ago, and none of the simple fixes worked. But not to worry, I thought, because important folders (including Firefox's Profiles folder) get backed up automatically every night, and just yesterday I reset my "homepage" to include all the currently open tabs. So I thought restoring my session and recovering my open tabs would be a simple matter of replacing current files with backed-up versions of those files. But I can't figure out which files to use or if that strategy is even possible. For example, some of the support materials state that recovery.jsonlz4 in the sessionstore-backups folder gets updated continuously with session and tabs information, but on my system that file abruptly stopped being updated in July. Similarly, previous.jsonlz4 and upgrade.jsonlz4-*** stopped being updated in May. (FYI, sessionstore.jsonlz4 gets created when I close Firefox, just like it's supposed to, but I don't have any backed-up versions of it because it only exists when Firefox is closed.) And the tabs currently listed in the "homepage" are also from a month ago, and I can't figure out what file those tabs are stored in. Help!

READER VIEW icon is missing from the toolbar, and ENTER READER MODE is missing from the VIEW menu, even on sites/pages where it is enabled on my other computer. Firefox version 104.02

With the latest update, something was either broken or MSN figured out a way to by-pass a security feature or how browser (security and or search), now allows auto-rotation to occur without users consent. What I mean, for instance a user goes to a page that has a box that has either picture views or views of another page but in that same page. Once you go into that page from a link on MSN.com the auto-rotation gets turnded on by default automatically. Before the update, this didnt happen! I have all my setting on strict and dont allow this, but it still occurs. All and any pages with this type of scroll or auto-rotation this occurs.

I recently found that my saved logins had disappeared. Not sure if this happened after a Firefox crash, Firefox update or Windows update. Unfortunately after reviewing the information on recovering the file I found that none of the methods worked for me. Also since I had no idea this had happened I had already done some password resets on web sites and Firefox had saved them which most likely wiped out the backup logins file. This is a real black mark for Firefox. If the logins.json file is corrupted you should display a prominent warning on startup so that users have a fair chance to recover before inadvertently wiping out the back up file. I do not use mobile devices (and you should NOT assume that everyone does) so there is no other device to recover the logins from. Fortunately I save some passwords in a password manager so not all is lost. But its hard to have confidence in your browser if this can happen without warning or notification. Very sloppy work.

Hello Every time I turn my computer on and go into firefox I have to go to logins & password and click on "Ask to save logins and passwords for websites". Why is it doing this? Why do I have to reset it every time I go into firefox? Kind regards

Hi,

    My Firefox browser was updated to 104.0.2 (64-bit) version and since then there is no sound. When I open the same website in chrome I'm able to hear the sound of videos and news.
