There was a 1-3 second power failure today that crashed my desktop computer but the UPS maintained power to the fiber modem and mesh router, so my internet connection to the house was maintained. I restarted the desktop and launched Firefox. It proceeded to open all the tabs which had been open which is good. BUT it was very troubling that my log-in to my Investment Brokerage account was maintained and it did not request a Log-in Account Name and Password. A 2nd web account also maintained its log-in; so this is not specific to my brokerage. I have Firefox set up to NEVER save passwords; I use a separate Password Manager set up NOT to autofill account names and passwords.

Was this because the the UPS maintained the internet connection (for the 1-2 minute restart) while Firefox crashed and did not EXIT? Is there any setting I can make to prevent this from happening?

Firefox Version 129.0.1 64 bit Windows 11. When I am in a New Tab, and I do a search (Google is my search engine) the results do not display. I type in search words, I hit Enter, and the screen does a very quick blip, and then nothing. This is very frustrating. I have wasted too much time trying to figure it out. It does not do it all the time, but most of the time. This started with the latest Firefox update. Is this a Settings issue?

The horizontal scroll bars had been missing for certain URL in firefox since mid last year 2023. I just downloaded the latest version for windows 11 and it is still missing.

I have checked the settings > General > browsing > related to scrollbars and they are all checked, namely: - use autoscrolling - use smooth scrolling

But it is still missing! I generally use firefox for my work and Google chrome for my personal use - to compartmentalize my browsing content/history. Now I will have to ditch firefox and use chrome only for both work and personal if this is not fixed.

I updated my password but now when I go to sign in (since an updated password signs out on all accounts) it won't stay signed in ever on my laptop. I input the password, then the email confirmation, then the authentication, and it says I'm signed in but when I go to my account is disconnected again. I've tried many times. I've also cleared the cookies and cache. Any advice?

Unable to sign into Outlook, DirecTV, and sometimes Ebay

I have had it up to here with Firefox. I am madder than a hornet. Currently, I am unable to access my Outlook email and DirecTV in my Firefox browser, though I can in other browsers I have. Sometimes, I can't even sign into Ebay.

The DirecTV problem goes back at least 4 years to a different PC, so I have had this same problem on two PCs, therefore it can't be my PC. Besides, why can I access DirecTV on my Norton private browser and not on Firefox? I get the following error window:

    An error occurred while processing your request.
    Reference #219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807
    https://errors.edgesuite.net/219.b2173e17.1724008787.36e807

The differing Outlook problem has popped intermittently over the past few months, but has happened more often lately. In that problem, the sign-on button is not activated.

Similar with the Ebay sign-on problem, except Ebay thinks I'm a bot and won't let me go any further than that perplexing error message.

I'm in the process of gravitating to the Norton private browser. I've already got all my bookmarks moved to that browser. At least Norton works for these three websites.

To put it bluntly, I think Firefox is a big stinking pile of horse manure. Firefox makes it EXTREMELY difficult to find out solutions. I believe Firefox actually WANTS it to be difficult to use. Why else would it be so hard to find out things? For example, instructions tell me to do something in some menu or click on some button, but the menu selections or buttons usually aren't there. I go round and round through the same blankety-blank webpages. I feel like a June bug constantly circling round a light. Even wanting to simply restore Firefox to original settings requires pulling eye teeth.

It took me over an hour to finally restore Firefox settings yesterday, which fixed things for THAT DAY ONLY. Today, the same problems cropped back up again.

I've had it. Unless I'm given some solution THAT ACTUALLY CONTINUES TO WORK, I am quitting Firefox.

Have a good day. I sure as hell haven't.

When attempting to access or refresh my online brokerage page I get a white spinning circle. It seems to go on for 30 seconds or so. While it is present the page is dysfunctional. I had recently changed some settings or a 3rd part program made some changes. I know not which setting or other may cause the spinning circle to be evoked. There is a break in the circle at about 3:18...that's the part that spins.

I am using Firefox 129.0.1 on a Windows 11 laptop and the three dots do not appear on the shortcut tiles when I hover over any of them. I have checked online documentation and it still describes using the three dots to add, edit or remove a tile. Am I missing something? Help would be most appreciated.

I work heavily in a site called Xactanalysis for work. This is a product by Xactware that is used for tracking, reporting and uploading estimates for insurance claims. They have released a reporting tool recently within Xactanalysis, and the issue is I cannot use with Firefox browser. This works with Chrome, however I would prefer to use Firefox.

I have entered the website address in the exceptions page, but still won't work. When asking Xactware for assistance they said manage the exceptions and it should work. This still doesn't seem to work, so I am curious if there is anything else I can do?
