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?

Hi, Just received your "Webpages, simplified" notice and it triggered two improvements you can easily make so Firefox is more accessible to users with disabilities.

  • Make buttons more descriptive "Learn More About Reader View" makes all the difference to someone using a screen reader. Imagine skimming a page where all the links just say "Learn More." This is pervasive across Firefox and easy to fix! (See screenshot of your page, attached.)
  • Add link to accessibility features or Mozilla's accessibility statement at the bottom of every page. I should not have to do a search to find out about accessibility. See example screenshot from Univ. of California, attached.

This evening, Thunderbird has updated to the new version (can't see where the version number is held, unfortunately). Whenever I try to download new emails, I now get the message "Error with account [email address]. Sending of username did not succeed. Mail server pop3.iomartcloud.com responded: Mate, the command must be one of CAPA, USER, PASS or QUIT." Mails are still accessible through the mail client on my phone and through webmail, just not through Thunderbird.

I am currently on Ver 115.12.2 (32-bit), but I've had this problem over several versions. I recently downgraded from the 64bit version (for a different reason), it had the same issue.

Old messages in the Inbox are listed twice, including those that have been read. New incoming messages are not duplicated, messages where I've deleted the duplicates are not again duped. Messages that get filtered to or moved to folders are not duped. Old messages that are in folders are not duped.

I have several email accounts in TB, and I only see this on my most active- of course! I have compacted all folders many times and rebuilt the Global Database with no effect. I tried opening in Troubleshooting mode and they are still duplicated. It is a POP account.

I'm using version 129 of Firefox for Android on a Galaxy S23+. I've used Microsoft Authenticator before to sign into Firefox Sync and Firefox Account.

Today it won't accept the MS Authenticator code. I also tried one of the backup codes and that didn't work either.

With either option above that I tried, I'm directed to a screen that reads: "Did you use the system camera? You must pair from within a Firefox app." This is the URL: https://accounts.firefox.com/pair/unsupported?showReactApp=true&deviceId=1eb2f6829ea748a4b9975e16e8584e74&flowBeginTime=1722955970609&flowId=ab2a1ddc80b9a6e6b68e2b7f20ce7546f5333f91d6a63712eaa4c4860f21d0c0&context=fx_desktop_v3&entrypoint=preferences&service=sync&uid=581fc07c2eb44d6ba8b28f9398cde1ce&prefillEmail=ezrway%40gmail.com&email=abeeler2489%40gmail.com&hasLinkedAccount=false&hasPassword=true&showSuccessMessage=true

There are no other options on this page. I attached a screenshot.

I often run into issues with PDFs in Firefox Linux. They either appear totally blank (typically after suspend/restore), or they appear with the desktop background showing through (as in the attached screenshot).

Hard refreshing the page doesn't change anything, opening a new tab and opening the PDF again doesn't change anything, opening a new window and loading the PDF doesn't change anything.

The screenshot is with this PDF: https://www.sgsw.ch/home/strom/_jcr_content/Par/sgsw_accordion_list_1838160259/AccordionListPar/sgsw_accordion_12353/AccordionPar/sgsw_downloadlist/DownloadListPar/sgsw_download_1049323524.ocFile/2023-08-31%20Mitteilung%20Elcom%20Erh%C3%B6hung%20Elektrizit%C3%A4tspreise%20f%C3%BCr%20das%20Jahr%202024.pdf

It renders correctly in Chromium.

Firefox 126.0 using the recommended performance settings on Mint 21.3, nvidia quadro p620 using the official nvidia drivers v535.171.04-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

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.
