I have been using addons, that allow opening web pages in sidebar, and all share a similar drawback, which is why I believe it to be on the browser side. When I close the sidebar and open it again, the page gets reloaded. This makes using messengers etc. in sidebar much less comfortable. I noticed, however, that bookmarks and history, when opened in sidebar, remember the state the were in when last closed. Is there some simple way to make pages remember their state as well or it can only be done by changing the addons' or the browser's code?

I am developing a website and when troubleshooting I am getting the following issue in both private browsing and normal browser mode.

- 'my_watchlist' html page loads in the both browser mode windows as it should - in both browser mode windows, view source code shows a dashboard page html and not the my_watchlist page html - inspect shows the correct html code for the my_watchlist page in both browser mode windows

The reason this is an issue is because I am not getting changes made to the source code in the my_watchlist page showing after saving and uploading to the server.

To clarify, I have tried: - closing browsers completely and reopening - still same issue - clearing cache - same issue - restarting pc - same issue

What is causing this?

Thanks.

This current update (129.0) crashed my windows 10 pc. Firefox showed that the update was completed and restarted itself. Nvidia downloaded a driver update & attempted to install it but failed. The error msg indicated that another app update was in progress, prevented it from installing, and to try later. Based on what I saw on Task Manager, Firefox locked up the windows installer module and had 100% disk usage. PC then crashed and looped several times trying to auto-repair itself. Had to do a hard power down, a safe boot, and the restore PC and Windows 10 to last good version. Will not do any Firefox updates until this problem is resolved.

I get a weird green mark on the top left, which looks like some type of greenscreen cursor input thing. I have seen it on Gmail. Not sure where else. Last time was a while ago.

This is on Windows 11. Just worried if this is some type of backdoor thing.

I cannot figure out why this important site which I have used for years is suddenly being blocked. the message I'm getting says-"Firefox has detect that the server is redirection the requested address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing cookies." I don't believe I have made any changes to cookies or anything else in the past few days so I don't know what to fix.

Please help

Moz Developers,

I would like to add a default exclude words from from search results. So for example, my search would be

"Best places to live" but I would like to exclude Africa with

"Best places to live -africa"

Could "-africa" be added to a default search bar settings so I don't need to type it?

Cheers

I looked at "Relay" to protect tracking. Before I knew it, I clicked and it said free. I added it and then a charge came up. Very disappointed in these used car dealer tactics. Why don't you tell someone up front if there is a charge for an add on? I may be looking for a new browser. I am not happy with Mozilla for the first time since subscribing.

My Windows 10 system is very slow on startup. Applications are taking a long time to even respond to clicking icons, but eventually start. In Task Manager, I see that several instances of Firefox are running at startup, although it doesn't appear in the startup list. When I end these Firefox processes, the system immediately resumes normal operating speed, and things that are waiting to open appear (Speccy, CC, AV's, mail client,etc.). How do I stop Firefox from running in the background without permission at startup?

I don't think you can help at this point. I followed the prompt to update Firefox and got the message that the platform version '128.0' is not compatible with min version>=128.0 or max version<=128.0. After following the instructions to uninstall then re-install Firefox, and even with the aid of a tech, I now have lost 90% of my bookmarks. Disappointed and not happy with Firefox at this point. I guess it's a done deal now and I just start over. Fortunately, I didn't have super important things bookmarked.
