Hi,

I've got a site that shows up in my addressbar that is no longer online. I use the other shortcuts regularly, so I'd prefer not to switch them off. Is it possible to delete the non-working shortcut?

Thankyou

Firefox no longer preserves cookies or site data between sessions

For many years now I've had Firefox clear

  • browsing & download history
  • temporary cached files and pages
  • saved form info

but not

  • cookies and site date
  • site settings

This worked flawlessly until Firefox updated to version 136, at which point all cookies were deleted and I was signed out of every account on every website.

Looking at the settings page, the option to delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed is now enabled. I don't remember what this setting used to look like, but I did not change it recently.

Unchecking the box seems to work, but I shouldn't suddenly have to do this, and the "damage" is done.

Why did the update to version 136 sign me out of every website, and how do I protect myself against this happening again?

For the past few days when I use Firefox and Thunderbird my entire screen will randomly start to flicker, at times very quickly and rarely the entire screen goes black for second or two. This behavior immediately stops when I close the app. It does not happen with any other app. I've tried disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox and that didn't help. Both apps are on the latest version and I also updated my video driver. Tried removing the two add-ons I have. I'm on Windows 11 Firefox 136.0.

Hello, I did just make a clean reinstallation of Thunderbird and while going through the setting I have notices that at Passwords / Save Passwords / `Show Passwords` my Account Passwords can be access with less effort.

My question now is, why is this even a feature?

In my mind, this should be by default off. Or at least informed me at the first account setup that my passwords are visible in the Settings, and if I want to set up a Master Password as well.

Is there an option to have the Button `Show Password` disable? Or if a Master Password have to be, then set it for only access `Show Password` but not for the login in to Thunderbird.
