My organization has been using Firefox ESR for many years. I am trying to upgrade from ESR 115.12 to ESR 128.1 The upgrade is hanging at the very end of the install. Procmon shows firefox.exe being launched in the background and hanging. When I manually run firefox.exe, it says "Unable to read configuration file". If I edit "autoconfig.js", and comment out the "general.config.filename", then everything works.
We still use the general.config.filename and have not fully transitioned to the newer policies.json configuration (we have settings in both).
Was a change made in ESR 128 that broke (or stopped supporting) the older format ?
thanks, -stephen

Hi, Hopefully someone can help. This started a couple of days ago. I'm actually trying to log in to my own account on Flickr. If I just input Flickr.com, the main front page loads, if I then go to log in, I get: "429 Too Many Requests You have sent too many requests in a given amount of time" on the screen. I've only hit enter once. As far as I can see this is the only site that does this BUT Youtube sometimes plays up, so maybe something is happening in the back ground with that. Might be totally unconnected.
I've tried using Opera (my main back up) and that loads my account just fine. I've tried turning off the extensions Adblock, No Script etc and the 429 error still pops up everytime I go to log in..
Any ideas? Anyone?
Thanks in advance. Graham

Well until a week ago I had no problems with Mozilla and apparently it got to a point where I deleted Mozilla and went to the Mozilla site downloaded the 64 version and couple of things have changed not sure why but they have and I'm not sure what to do ... The main thing is moving files into sites like We Transfer and Mega ... It just bounces off ... I took these sharing sites to like Edge and Opera not a problem.... Mozilla won't work.

Hi folks
Until about two or three days ago the www.bt.com website opened as usual, with first of all its cookie panel taking over the screen asking whether to accept cookies or manage cookies, and after handling that the site was perfectly usable.
As of two or three days now the cookie panel does not come up NOT AT ALL [but see also the last part of this message], and the screen is lightly-greyed-out. The screen scrolls but nothing at all is clickable.
However, in Chrome and Edge the site opens and works as expected.
The site also opens on the iPhone using both Safari and Firefox and works as expected.
It is just FF on my W10x64 Desktop where I have the unclickable lightly-greyed-out screen problem.
Perhaps something has chaged in FF, so I went into Settings-Privacy & Security- and then did the following:-
After all of this - no change; the www.bt.com screen is still in a lightly-greyed-out and unclickble, but still scrolls, however, after taking the above bulleted steps, the cookie panel now momentairily only flickers onto the screen and then disappears, and, sadly, the screen remains lightly-greyed-out and unusable.
Am I missing some sort of blocker for this website?
All other websites work on the Desktop PCs FF as expected. It is just this www.bt.com website that is the issue.
I have spent 30 mins with a BT Support Agent on the phone and we both agree that as Chrome, Edge and Safari are all fine it must be an issue with the Desktop version of FF.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.

recently switched to sky broadband, now half my web comics and other sites get 401d. some stupid interaction with their webshield rubbish seems to be the cause as it pops up occasionally. thing is, edge and brave have no such issue, and the trouble shooting guide for firefox not loading pages doesnt resolve the issue. restore firefox has partial effect until next time i restart my computer. but resetting my addons every time i sit down would be rediculous.
im guessing there is something in the dragons nest i need to toggle. im rather comfortable with how i use the tab sidebar and speed dial pins to be very eagre to switch browser.

I cannot sign in to the New York Times today; on their main page it will not allow me to sign in to my account. I have called them, and apparently it is Firefox that is the problem. I can connect to any and all other sites. I can connect and sign in to the NYTimes from my iPad as well, so I believe it is the version on my Windows 11 laptop that is the problem. I've cleared all cookies and history, restarted my computer, re-booted my modem even, and closed my VPN, all to no avail. I have version 129.0.2, and it is up to date. It was working yesterday just fine. Is there another update coming to correct this?
Every time I try to reset the web browser for Firefox to be my default Microsoft comes back. I do this in the default apps.

on PC A, firefox just lost all open tabs (even pinned ones), history (for this device only thank gods), open windows.
I installed a windows yesterday on a different PC (lets call it B), and logged in with the same microsoft account PC A uses. Then installed firefox and logged in to sync (on PC B).
Did that somehow overwrite the profile? Even though it was a different PC?

Hello,
I am reaching out to gain information on ADMX GPO policies. We are retiring Policy Pak which used to add all the policies and secure Firefox for Enterprise. What we noticed is that Policy Pak used the app set to apply these policies and we are noticing that native GPO's for the most part to match the Policy Pak policies is not as accurate for GPO's My ask here is there any Most Viable Product suggestions to apply Native GPO's for securing Firefox.

I type something in Firefox, say "mice". A Google search string appears in the address bar, but it is greyed out, and nothing else happens. I have to go to that bar and hit Return to get to the search results. After this has happened once, everything appears to work as expected until I close the browser. On reopening, the problem has returned.
