I know from visiting other forums that updates to Firefox have been released, but MSIX is not installing them - or even notifying me, much less asking if I want to install them. For example, Help > About Firefox shows that I am running V.129.0; yet I'm pretty sure that V.120.0.2 has been released.

Why? What can I do to ensure that I'm running the latest release?

I've restarted Firefox to see if that would work. It did not. I haven't rebooted to see if that works; but, even if it does, that seems to be a rather drastic effort to install a new version.

Every time I use the browser, I am delayed by : p.typekit.net for a little while before I get results. Why? Can this be removed from the search or browser? I can use a book mark and I get the same hang up on p.typekit.net EVERY time. It slows the browser quite a bit. I have used Firefox for over a decade and would like to keep using it. If you can't fix or can direct me how to fix I need to change browsers because the browser lag is getting stupid. Please help.

Video/audio issue

Today, Firefox stopped playing audio on Facebook videos and won't play Netflix videos at all (Netflix error code: F7701-1003). Youtube works fine and has audio, but several other video sites I've tried have video but no audio. It was all working fine yesterday and I haven't changed any settings.

These websites work fine with both audio and sound on Microsoft Edge on the same laptop, so this is a problem exclusive to Firefox. OS is Windows 11 Home 23H2, Firefox is latest version (129.0.2)

Things I've tried: 1. Refresh Firefox settings 2. Download and install fresh copy of Firefox 3. Toggle DRM content in setting on/off - no difference no matter what is selected 4. Ensure that 'remember history' is selected 5. Check for Windows updates 6. Uninstall audio driver, restart and fresh install of audio driver 7. Ensure it's not in private mode 8. Turn off all extensions 9. Check volume mixer allows sound for Firefox 10. Clear the cache and cookies

I can't find any more suggestions on the internet, so any further suggestions welcome!

CHHIMI.com and FireFox on PC

Recently MalwareBytes has been flagging, MANY times a day, an attempt by Firefox 129.0.2 to go to CHHIMI.com. The message from MalwareBytes says it is being "blocked due to Trojan". This is an "outbound" type from C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe.

The only info I have been able to find about CHHIMI is that it is a very new website that does not use HTTPS validation. Allegedly has something to do with gaming. The only "gaming" I do is an occasional bout with an on-board (not on-line) Solitare.

So, the fundamental question I have is why is FireFox routing to CHHIMI.com and how do I stop it?

Hi! I have a question about the syncing/history with FireFox. So for some context, I have two laptops, a personal laptop and a school/work laptop. I use the same FireFox account on both of them for convenience, however, I don't want the things from my personal laptop (ex. social media) to show up as recommended when I search for things in a tab on my work laptop. I already turned off the related sync settings, but I think since I synced my history before I turned them off, the websites from my main laptop are still showing up. My main question is- would I be able to clear my history on my work laptop without deleting the cookies/usage information from my main laptop (as I know this would log me out)? Or is my best bet to make a different FireFox account for my work laptop?

Thanks!

I have a bookmark tap on the right top and on the left top. I'm trying to rearrange the order of the bookmarks on the right side to match the order there in on the left side. I'm not able to change the order there in on the right side. I tried dragging them down or up but it won't work. Does anyone know who to change the order of what my book marks are in on the right side?
