Every time I close Mozilla, my settings change from "Show Search Suggestions" on to off. I have no idea why it turns off automatically.

Context: I do have Betterfox installed which could be causing issues. If it is, what setting could I change?

How to edit/customise context menu (folder list) for "Move to" button (or "move to" command)? I want to remove "Recent" and "Local folders" from the folder list and leave only my own folders there, which would greatly simplify and fasten using Thunderbird.

I bought a new computer and had to download Thunderbird again. I tried the most recent one, didn't like it, so randomly picked a previous release from 2023 (don't remember when I installed the previous one) and hoped for the best. In the past, I would keep some emails in my inbox and tend to them as needed and then keep or delete when I had done what was required. I would also need to go to my ISP email's page, to get spam email, because Thunderbird didn't provide me with those. When there, I would delete what was in the inbox, so I could easily keep letters there to a minimum. Now, however, when I delete something in my ISP's inbox, it deletes in my Thunderbird portal too. I can't find settings in my ISP's page to stop it from downloading automatically (so it won't duplicate what I've already received via Thunderbird), and I can't find any settings in Thunderbird, to ask it to keep what I have in my inbox, instead of deleting everything I delete with my ISP. Do I need to go further back and find an earlier release in order to be able to use Thunderbird as I used to do? Or can I tweak the one I have?

Recently in our workplace, we had several computers that suddenly stopped being able to access several websites, the issue started shortly after pushing a updated Firefox across the floor.

I tracked the issue down to being related to security.tls.version.fallback-limit defaulting to 4, instead of the old 3.

Setting the value to 3 resolves the website accessibility issue.

A.) How can I confirm if this is a recent change or not? Everything I read seems to indicate the default should already be 3, but its very definitively not.

B.) What is the best way to push a pref adjustment change across the floor if the option isn't present in the registry and isn't a GPO option? Is my only option really to make some script that scans every computer's users folder, check every user folder's appdata\mozilla, scan every profile for a pref.js file, and do a string search for a reference line and then do a line addition if a certain string doesn't exist?

I can do this, it just doesn't seem like a good long term fix as I would have to run this script regularly as users come and go....

I am on FF 128.7.0esr (64-bit) under a new profile.

Bonjour, Quand on m'envoie une invitation par mail et que je l'accepte il est créé un rendez-vous dans le calendrier "Mon agenda" de thunderbird. Pour que je puisse voir ces invitation dans google agenda il faudrait que google soit synchronisé avec "Mon agenda" de thunderbird. Je n'arrive pas à le faire. Par avance Merci. Fabrice Jalinier

I'm using Firefox in a kiosk-mode application, on a Raspberry Pi based system, started from a bash script like this:

# Clear history etc. to prevent problems if unit is not perfectly shut down rm -v -r /home/pi/.mozilla/firefox/*.default rm -v -r /home/pi/.mozilla/firefox/*.default-esr rm -v -r /home/pi/.cache/mozilla/firefox/*.default rm -v /home/pi/.mozilla/firefox/profiles.ini

sleep 2

/usr/bin/firefox-esr --kiosk -url http://127.0.0.1

However on booting I get a banner from Mozilla along the top of the screen saying: "Firefox automatically sends some data to Mozilla so that we can improve your experience [Choose what I share]"

This is not acceptable in kiosk mode, as it would give users access to the configuration as well as being a visual annoyance. How can we disable this?

Hello, Android 14 and Firefox 135.0. I would like my default bookmarks location to be the "Bookmarks" folder so that I can access them with one tap from my phone. At the moment bookmarks go to "Other bookmark" folder and to access them on phone I need to tap Bookmarks>Desktop Bookmarks>Other Bookmarks.

I have moved a bookmark to bookmark folder hoping FF would remember the new location but it doesn't. How do I change the default location of all my bookmarks from "Other bookmarks" to "Bookmarks". Many thanks for your help.

Although I have the mozilla as my default browser , it's not working as my default browser and every page opes by default with Microsoft Edge. Please help me. Thank you

We are currently considering using Firefox ESR as our default browser but experiencing a few issues and one of them is with our configured SailPoint IdentityIQ Single Sign-On Experience, which uses Basic Authentication.

Issue Description First, the login button needs to be clicked multiple times before access to the site is granted. Once signed in, the Firefox inbuilt authentication dialogue appears, prompting the user to log in again (see the attached screenshot). The landing page is only presented after clicking the login button several times. This creates a poor user experience, sometimes causing pages to load improperly. Interestingly, the same process works seamlessly in Edge Chromium.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken I have already attempted the following: 1. Temporarily disabled all custom and security settings in mozilla.cfg and config.json. 2. Temporarily disabled Firefox Tracking Protection. 3. Allowed third-party cookies for the specific URL. 4. Upgraded Firefox Version to 128.7.0 5. Since our Firefox browser is significantly hardened, I have also enabled and reconfigured the following settings in mozilla.cfg to ensure Basic Authentication is allowed, functions properly, and suppresses Firefox’s authentication prompt, but without success:

network.http.phishy-userpass-length = 255 network.http.use-basic-auth network.automatic-ntlm-auth.allow-non-fqdn network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris security.enterprise_roots.enabled security.enterprise_roots.enabled

Observations from SailPoint Team Our colleagues from SailPoint have tested the setup in their environment, and according to them, it works as expected. However, their browser is not hardened, and they have leveraged the SailPoint UI for authentication instead of the built-in Firefox authentication prompt.

Further Investigation • Is there a specific configuration required in the user profile settings? • Network trace analysis shows 404 errors on GET requests and the following error codes on POST requests: • 302 Redirect: Mozilla Documentation • 408 Request Timeout: Mozilla Documentation

Next Steps Is there a specific security setting that needs to be enabled or disabled? Are there any particular Firefox enterprise policies we should modify? I have also attached screenshots for reference. Let me know if you need specific logs or network traces for further troubleshooting.

I don't believe the instructions are entirely sufficient when attempting to disable VPN protection for a website. Here are the instructions you provide:

To disable VPN protection for a specific website, follow these steps:

   1. Navigate to the website where you want to disable the VPN protection.
   2. In the top right corner of your Mozilla Firefox browser, locate and open the Mozilla VPN extension icon.

For Step 1 above, the instruction says navigate to the website, in this case it isUSPS.com (United States Postal Service). There are 2 cases:

 a) Mozilla VPN is ON, I cannot get to USPS.com and Firefox gives me this message:
    "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.  We can’t connect to the server at usps.com."
 b) Mozilla VPN is OFF, I am able to get to USPS.com
     However, when executing Step 2, above, by clicking on the Mozilla VPN extension icon, the only result I receive is a blinking uploaded image (see below) and nothing more.

Obviously, the procedure does not take into account the situation of having the VPN ON and trying to get to a website that disallows access when the location is masked, such as usps.com.

What's the fix?

I'm setting up Firefox on a new computer. I haven't done this for a while and the interface has changed, so I'm not sure how it works.

I want to move my Firefox profile to a directory in the Documents library to simplify backup. Following the Mozilla instructions I found, I opened about:profiles and clicked the Create New Profile button. I deleted the contents of the directory that Create New Profile created and copied the contents of the default profile directory to it. The last step is to tell Firefox to use my new profile instead of its default.

But the about:profile page lists three profiles: default-release, default, and my new one. The first two have a Set as default profile button; the last does not. So it appears that I can tell Firefox to use the default-release profile or the default profile, but there's no way I can tell it to use my new profile. I can only Launch profile in new browser -- presumably something I'll have to do every time I run Firefox.

This makes no sense. How can I tell Firefox to use my new profile -- not to launch a new browser with it, but to use it, period? If I can't, why can't I? Every version of Firefox I've ever installed up to now allowed this.

Also, the default-release profile section of about:profiles has the note "This is the profile in use and it cannot be deleted." So it appears that Firefox uses the default-release profile instead of the default profile as its default profile. What is the default-release profile? Why isn't the default profile the default profile?

Hello, I would like to know how the retention policy effects sub-folders. Does the Retention Policy (RP) propagate down to sub-folders?

Example: I create a folder in my EM account, call it folder1. I go into the RP tab and un-check the use global settings and choose never delete EM's. I then create folder2 as a sub-folder of folder1 and create a RP, un-check use global settings and select delete EM's older than "x" days.

Will folder1's RP take president over folder2's RP and never delete EM's or will folder2's RP override folder1's RP and delete EM's older than "x" days according to folder2's RP?

My OS is Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon, Cinnamon Ver. 6.4.6 Thunderbird-Nebula 128.7, 64Bit for Linux Mint-001 - 1.0

Thank you, MA

Does anybody know which options to use on the command-line start of Firefox such that the only thing displayed is the area within which an HTML page would be presented?

I want to have it start with everything else turned off or hidden, namely

   memu bar
   page tabs bar
   address bar along all add-on buttons
   bookmarks sidebar

The "-kiosk" option is not appropriate for my needs.

-kiosk doesn't hide the sidebar (Bookmarks or not) if that sidebar was visible during last session before exit ... so ... no, "-kiosk" is not a proper implementation of a "page-only" display mode.

"-private-window" gives no benefit, display-wise, over and above what the "-new-window" option provides.

Everything I've read (even on the Mozilla support site) seems to point to creating a special profile for just that mode, and then to modify the "userChrome.css" file with custom properties to ensure the desired "off" setting for the GUI elements. That seems a rather "small-minded" view, ignoring the potential for huge market of self-contained hard-coded applications that would need only use the Firefox rendering engine, and nothing else!

One comment on Reddit indicated that the functionality was there ("-app" option working with XULrunner), but discontinued!

As a test, I did close all my browsers, leaving the bookmark sidebar visible before closing. I then entered:

firefox -kiosk -safe-mode -private-window ${URL}

I still get the bookmark-sidebar visible, with everything else "hidden" or "disabled", because visible sidebar is my default mode for normal browsing.

Is there no command-line startup switch to force that sidebar to "hide", equivalent to clicking on the "X" on the top-right corner?

OR ...

Is there any programmatic way to tell that to hide using JavaScript in the HTML page that is loaded? Everything I seem to locate refer to in-page Elements only, not Browser Elements. :frowning:

But "kiosk"(fullscreen-mode) is not the mode I want, because I want users to be able to have the simplified browser-based HTML App co-exist on the desktop with other windows, like a normal App.

I've tried using this alternative content for the JavaScript file, but that also failed (using '*hideSidebarBookmarks()*' call in the in-line script segment):

``` function hideSidebarBookmarks() { const sidebar = document.getElementById("CustomizableUI.AREA_BOOKMARKS") ; sidebar.hide() ; } ```

I even tried replacing the word "document" with "browser" in the above, still with no success. :-(

The above will display per the attached image.

The title describes the problem. This is an old problem that seems to be triggered by something embedded in the email. Other emails print to PDF or the actual printer without a problem. For security reasons, I cannot attach the email in question as it involves money and account identification.

The email is a credit card reward certificate from Costco and generated by Citibank in case someone else has reported this specific problem.

I have a different theme and cursor on my system. I would like to include them in Zen Browser. They are Candy Mac and Azenis respectively. There is no setting to do this. Many other browsers have System themes as an option.
