Firefox Community Forum

Hi

OK so I was having some issues with firefox where I had to reinstall it and this did in fact resolve the issues I was having.

Problem I have is this though when I reinstalled it I first backed up my chrome folder which had all my custom CSS to move the tabs to the bottom of the header area and when I then reinstalled FF I then copied the folder back into my profile folder using the More Info under the help menu to make sure I was in fact in the right profile folder.

Problem is the code isn't moving the tabs and I seem to remember some issues with this the last time we had to fix FF that something had changed with the Chrome folders and such.

So what do I need to do to get my tabs back on the bottom again as I hate them up top!

Version: 128.0.3

Thanks!

help me restore my pre update condition. This is very upsetting My tabs, bookmarks, everything is gone, gone, gonegone Can I just delete this version 128.0.3 and go back to previous version, which was functional?

I had to install to a new computer, Windows 10 Pro. I set the Download option to ask for where to save but Firefox is not giving choice. I have closed and re-opened Firefox since changing setting 128.0.3 (64-bit)

Hi, i downloaded the browser like an hour ago because the youtube ads are annoying and i found a "Your browser is being managed by your organization." thingie on chrome, which led me to a virus (found with kasperky), ran windows defender and malwarebytes afterwards, nothing came up.

And so i thought all was good. I wanted to enable autoplay on youtube videos and when i was looking for that option in the settings i noticed this on the left corner again (added images).

Found a post in 2023 about the same thing but it doesn't answer nor help.

Clicking on the GOOGLE search box in the address bar automatically opened it but since 7/25/2024, I have to type 1 character in the GOOGLE search box for it to open. What's happened? I cleared all cookies, removed and then added GOOGLE search back in the address bar and I don't have AdBlocker Ultimate. I have adblocker for Youtube & FB along w/FBcontainer because w/o it it's a joke trying to watch anything. I tried the suggestions to disable but it didn't work. I have no idea why you're even suggesting not using an adblocker. That's been the #1 reason people have downloaded FF is because of the different, usable & functional adblockers. I started using NN; which turned into Mozilla; for that reason....adblocking/pop-up blocking features and add-ons. Since it's not the adblocker in my case, what next?

when i try to print list of names of removed and in progress only the cover of reolved items does not print details. list is needed to compare to info on experian which azppears to differ with mozilla you show below wsindows 10 i am on windows 11

My bookmarks changed with the update. I can't find everything that I had in my bookmarks. I liked the way Bookmarks worked before the update. They were easy to find and organize. Please put it back the way it was. This is horrible. It is like Edge and Chrome, which I don't use because they are horrible to use. Now firefox is the same.

I am trying to remove a shortcut off of my Firefox homepage. I have been trying everyday of what I can do, clicking "Dismiss" or "Delete from History" will not do anything. I am trying to find out what other ways can help, but so far, none seem to help for now. I haven't been on the website because I didn't need to anymore. I have been looking for ways, but they seem to not help me at all. Is there anyway I can get rid of it please? Please let me know.

I noticed there are 2 FF and 2 FF private browsing icons in win 11 under "start", "all apps". I don't see a way to delete 1 of each. is there a reason they are there maybe? I'd like to remove the 2 duplicates if not. thanks

I am using 'search:query=seattle&crumb=location:C%3A%5CMyFolder' such query to search in my local indexed files on my windows using firefox 124.xx versions and also all the other browser supports this , after the update to 128.0.3 , this stopped working , Is there any setting to do so that it would start working back. reference link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/win.../search-protocol

Microsoft search Protocol works fine in older versions now it didnt , Any new update stopped this?

For 2 days now I have a big problem! Firefox froze, and I ended up closing it with the programme manager. When I wanted to reopen I got this: Firefox est déjà en cours d’exécution mais ne répond pas. L’ancien processus Firefox doit être arrêté pour pouvoir ouvrir une nouvelle fenêtre. BUT - it refuses to close when I click on "close" (fermer).

I tried the programme manager - but Firefox isn't shown as being open.

I've made a back up of my profile. I can't delete parent.block ... I'm told "Firefox is running already" and I must close it. Every troubleshooting step comes to the same barrier to completing it! Almost all guide one from an open Firefox page - and I can't open Firefox! I can't "uninstall" for the same reason!

All my passwords are in Firefox - and I can't import them to Chrome without closing Firefox completely! I'm going mad - urgent need to access my passwords!

I would love for someone to help point me in the right direction as to why my Firefox tabs are constantly crashing, especially on high memory usage websites like webmail or youtube.

I'm wondering if it could be related to a potentially faulty processor, as I recently had to RMA my i9 14900k processor, and modify the bios for stability even after I got a replacement, just to get applications to stop crashing and the OS to stop blue-screening.

For the curious, my intel forum post about that issue. My system specs are included in there as well: https://community.intel.com/t5/Processors/i9-14900k-randomly-crashing/m-p/1593273/thread-id/71838

Firefox crash logs:

Some crash reasons listed are EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT , EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ , and EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE .

Thank you in advance

Two days ago firefox would not play youtube videos. I select a video from my home page and the screen turns black and I see a spinning circle. Then an ad will appear darkened and I can skip. When I do the screen returns to black. This does not happen on any other source. It does not happen when I use Microsoft Edge.

Hello, I have encountered an issue on the google photos website. Allow me to explain by giving the scenario:

Lets say A shared an album with B thereby A being the owner and B being the collaborator.

When A right clicks an image within the gallery, in the right click menu he has the option to 'save image as'. It does not matter if A is the owner of said image or not.

If B wishes to do the same thing, he can only do so for images he uploaded aka that he owns. He cannot right click on the images A uploaded to save it. Instead he must use Shift + D. The right click context menu only shows "Save webpage as" so we cannot download anything.

I have tried to test it on other browsers and Firefox is the only one with this issue. For chromium based browsers it works perfectly normally.

The fucking forced dark mode has return despite the previous fix layout.css.prefers-color-scheme.content-override = 1 in about:config fixing it for years. This and the current replacement fixes don't save. I want a solution for PERMANENT light mode (black text on white background) for ALL menus, pop-ups, dropdown menus and hover over tab info.

And don't tell me to go search for a different theme I've already spent hours doing that and firefox has broken them only making some menus use the appropriate mode. On top of that I can't even pick an option to search for one that uses light mode I just have to go through each one and try it if I want to know which mode it uses that is NOT a solution to anything.

Replacement "fixes" for reference: ui.systemUsesDarkTheme won't even let me set to 0 only has true/false browser.theme.content-theme set to 1 browser.theme.toolbar-theme set to 1 (Why in the absolute hell these were added when a simple addition to preference setting wasn't is beyond me)

Very sorry for the aggressiveness but I am so very VERY tired of having to fight firefox on this preferance for years when their dark mode hurts my eyes.
