Firefox Community Forum

I'm really surprised and frustrated that I can't do this on Windows 10.

Already posted about it here. https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2492770-start-firefox-private-window-from-command-line-with-2-tab-urls?page=1#entry-10415889

Running 116.0.3.

I type in the item that I want to search for and as I have seen for years of using Firefox a helpful list of options are displayed with links to click on to get more informatrion. However, I now cannot get any further with any of the selections as clicing on the link has no effect at all. If I use the link which is saved in my favourites that works fine.

To search for any thing else I have to use analternative such as smicrosoft edge.

Kind Regards.

Latest version seems to have added action imeaditly I hover over somthing with the mouse pointer this is trulley maddning how do I stop this behaveur or increase the delay?

I recently had to perform a system restore on my Laptop to resolve an issue (on recommendation from ASUS Support).

On reinstalling firefox, I began to notice that video (Youtube, Animated GIF's, etc) would lag when I would scroll my mouse down to the Windows 11 Taskbar and it would show the preview windows.

Firefox is the only application that is having this issue, and Troubleshoot Mode seems to not have the problem. However, when not in troubleshoot mode, even with all Add-On's and Themes disabled, the issue occurs.

I have tried changing Add-Ons to ones with rated performance, restarting my Laptop, ensuring all Drivers, Applications are updated, Refreshing Firefox, uninstalling & reinstalling firefox, reducing the number of open tabs and windows. I also ran sfc /scannow and DISM in case the issue was with the taskbar, with nothing being reported. Nothing appears to have worked.

Any assistance would be appreciated, as I love using Firefox and have not had any issues with it up until now.

Hi folks.

I use Firefox a lot. I have about 36 windows of firefox open and some of those can have a LOT of tabs on/in them.

I have recently "evolved" to using a computer monitor. Before then it was an old flat screen TV - 1336 x 768 resolution (there about).

Now I have a 1080p monitor and things are different.

I use Node-Red (dashboards) and they took a beating with the new size.

I've set THOSE tabs to 133% magnification - and yes that isn't the correct size to emulate the TV. But I only thought of doing this a fair way down the track of trying to rearrange the layouts. (MY MISTAKE)

But I realised that at least not too long down that rabbit hole.

So that WINDOW is set to 133% zoom. But just now I tried to zoom out of another tab on that window and realised that the zoom on the other tabs is changed too.  :(

Am I missing any tricks? I know I could move THOSE tabs to a whole new window and that's that. But in the bigger picture I just want to check.

Each time Firefox forces me to update, when it comes back, it says it need me to input my Mac password to authorize the installation of a "Helper" tool. I do so but then Firefox will hang. I need to Force Quit it. If I cancel out of putting in my password, it won't start.

The only way to fix is to delete Firefox.app from Applications then download a new DMG and reinstall. I'm getting sick of having to do that every time. I've been a Firefox user for well over a decade and don't want to move to Chrome or Safari but this is getting bad.

I don't even know what "Helper Tool" it wants to install. I use the Dashlane and Gmail Reverse Conversations as the only 2 Extensions I have in the browser.

Please help me figure out how I can avoid having to delete and download Firefox everytime I'm forced to update it.

Thanks.

Gradually I am losing all ability to use Firefox for financial and vendor payment logins. One by one over the past year I get varying messages that keep me from logging in. Chrome (which I don't care for) works in each instance. Yesterday Vanguard denied me, stating THEY are experiencing technical difficulties, apologizing for the "temporary" inconvenience. This message has been coming in for six or seven months at login but I was able to try again and it would let me in on the second try. Recently, a Vanguard rep suggested clearing my cache, which I tried successfully last week. Yesterday, I received the same message and clearing the cache failed. I love the Firefox structure and feel, and it's keyboard shortcuts, but I can't be fooling around like this every time I try to log in. This has now happened with a number of vendor payment accounts, my banking login and now Vanguard. How do I fix this?

I have a problem with firefox. when firefox opens, firefox opens two windows instead of just one. so you always have to close one (useless window) so it can either be a blank page or with firefox's own page (you can choose that yourself, but don't want two windows opening when you start firefox) how can you delete/stop /disable the extra window opens.

mine is 330 MB. Has folders like http++website.org and https+++accounts.google.com^userContextId=8 and moz-extension+++81bd8d4f-66b4-4320-a211-143290de74c5

What is bizarre, Mozilla, is the fact that in Windows version 116.0.3 64-bit, that while using <browserleaks.com> test for webRTC, that the WebRTC leak test, RTC PeerConnection, & RTC DataChannel leak in Windows & not in the Linux OS.

Bottom line: how do we configure Firefox in Windows to NOT leak?

Hi,

I was doing an online CTF challenge that uses an http server and doesn't work with https. The challenge features a fake login prompt and firefox keeps showing me the "This site is not secure" warning when I try to type a password, which is distracting and completely useless here because I'm not sharing any private info on that site.

I can't access my website https://mijanschool.com but I can access all site. This problem happen when I use wifi on pc, mobile phone. But this site is working when I use mobile data. Please sir could you help me.

I am using MS Windows 11 (latest update installed) and Mozilla FIrefox browser (latest update installed). Recently, I have been experiencing issues signing in to my Truist online banking service. While speaking with my bank's customer service representative I was informed that over the last several days they have received many calls from customers with the same issue and these customers were Firefox users. What is Mozilla Firefox doing to address the issues. Signing in not functioning properly. Loading of account info not functioning (Slow to no-load). I've tried accessing the same online banking account with MS Edge and it seems to function fine.

Since a few days, it is not possible to copy-and-paste any external text or content into the text field of WhatApp Web on Firefox. It works fine on Chrome. Also text manually copied from a previous WA message can be pasted.

We tried on other PCs with Firefox and Chrome, same situation. So it seems to be a problem of Firefox latest version.

Copy & Paste not working in Whatsapp Web page. I've cleared cache, rebooted etc. Copy & Paste works perfectly in Edge browser to its certainly a Firefox problem.

2 days ago I lost the ability to copy and paste a foto or image into my whatsapp using firefox. Then tonight I lost the ability to also copy and paste from the google translator to whatsapp using firefox. As much as I hate to I went to my Microsoft Edge browser and both images and copying pasting text worked. So unfortunately it is definitely a firefox browser issue. I hope someone can resolve this soon! So I can return to using firefox. Thanks!
