How to I delete three Fire Fox icons found in Apps? Two show up in the taskbar tray and I am constantly being asked if Fire Fox should be my Default.

Also, refreshing Fire Fox changed all my options. For example, when Fire Fox opened, there were two rows of internet choices from "mail" to "dictionary"; now, a plain white screen.

I'm about to give up on Fire Fox and follow the herd with Microsoft forever! It seems every time Microsoft has an "update", two things happen: I have problems with Fire Fox and my phone rings off from folks I've never done business with; any connection?

Thanks in advance for your help. Computers are a necessary evil!

Hi.

Every time Firefox updates it signs me out of all my open tabs. Until Firefox can do updates without signing me out of everything I do not want to update. How can I stop updates for Version 132.0.2 (64-bit)?

Thanks.

Recently Firefox has been randomly crashing the past 3 weeks multiple times, Is anyone else having this odd issue ? I'll be watching a stream or youtube video and bam out of no where the Browser goes black for like 20 or 30 seconds then crashes. I sent in about 3 crash reports and wondering if the Firefox team is aware of this issue.

Firefox doesn't look or act anything like my firefox did before the most recent update. My Roboform extension/add-in is now not installed/active and I can't figure out a way to enable it. It shows up in the list of extensions as disabled, but there is no button or explanation for why it was disabled - even when I use the instructions on your help section.

Two questions: How do I get my Roboform and other extensions enabled?

How do I turn off auto update with Firefox? These kinds of change without notice are unaccesptable.

My page throws errors in Firefox Nightly such as

Expected color but found ‘undefined’. Error in parsing value for ‘background-color’. Declaration dropped. preview.htm:1:1

and

Expected color but found ‘undefined’. Error in parsing value for ‘color’. Declaration dropped. preview.htm:1:1

The page references ten CSS files besides having dozens of its own CSS declarations. The issue is tha the reference provided to the error (:1:1) does not indicate where I can find the error. That is, I don't know which declaration is at fault. Is there some straighforward way to find the declaration in question?

How do I get rid of these constant firebox pop ups that block tabs that I have open. it is EXTREMELY affecting my ability to use my laptop. I WANT TO KNOW HOW STOP THIS BS

Today when I launched the browser, a sidebar appeared. No matter what I tried, I can't remove it, it really gets in the way, I searched for information all over the Internet, but I still couldn't find any information. How can I remove the sidebar?

All of a sudden, when I'm on eBay, a lot of the hot links, embedded on an eBay "for sale" item don't work. Sometimes, when I (repeatedly) hit "Reload Current Page", they start working, or become "hot", as they should be. I wrote eBay, but no response. I don't know, if it's their problem, or something wrong with Firefox. Thanks, in advance, David

Why is there no price tag icon for Review Checker in the search bar for Amazon and Walmart? (I am signed in to Mozilla, and I tried turning off all my adblockers and Privacy Badger.)

Thank you for your suggestions!

I view movies and tv series on Amazon Prime and others every night . Suddenly I no longer can. On Prime I get a msg. saying I must update ff. It tells me the process and I have done it at least 6 times. When I go to 'about Firefox it tells me that I am already up to date, have version 115.18 esr. I am on a Dell Business computer, Vostro 470. Windows 7, service pak 1. Processor is i5-3450CPU @3.10GHz. RAM 400 GB , 4 processor cores. 64 bit. Prime disk466 GB 395 GB free. I'm a senior lady, not very computer literate. I have a ton of duplicate files but don't know which to remove. If I got help I could free up a lot more space. I watch everything on my computer monitor. I don't understand as the esr was supposed to allow us to continue. Please help as I am pretty homebound and this is about my only entertainment.

Hi, there are bugs with text selection when using touch. The video below explains. But simply selecting text is really buggy and the bugs happen randomly, long pressing on text sometimes selects text sometimes not, sometimes opens context menus sometimes not. The preferred behavior is to select text and open the context menu at the same time.

Hi, I have an issue and hopefully an easy challenge, but I need and would appreciate your kind help.

My Windows 10 PC with Firefox Desktop installed has all my bookmarks, passwords, add-ons, configuration entries, etc. I had the unfortunate situation where my PC hard drive boot-up is corrupted, so I am unable to boot into windows. I am though able to access all of the files intact, via a USB Hard Drive dock to read, save, and be able to transfer any files from that non-bootable hard drive to a new install.

I did a new windows install with a brand new hard drive along with Firefox, but I need your help to effectively get all of those files/entries from the old hard drive and my Firefox "profile" transferred into the new drive so I can resume like before, and further back up as necessary. I do understand that I should have logged into my Firefox account and backed it up so it would have been seamless, but I am sorry I didn't.

Can you please help me and advise?

Thank you so very much.!

My safe downloads are being continually blocked by your Norton Safe Web. I have already gone thru the security settings and unchecked them. It is still blocking simple WORD downloads from clean sources and business partners. Is there a way to fix this? Otherwise I need to abandon Fierfox for another browser.

I cannot click links from google search on Firefox (latest version - Windows 11) if they are an advertisement. Even an ad from Amazon from my search results. Example: I did a google search for scrapbook paper from a specific company. Google gives me a page of search results. In the top of the page are adverts from Amazon etc. One of them was one I clicked on for amazon. See screenshot 1. When I clicked on the one circled in red I got the second screenshot as a result. So then I clicked the exclamation mark next to http: on screenshot 2 which gave me this info in screenshot 3. I went back to the google search page and cannot open a one of those ads across the top. My husband has the same issue on his galaxy S7 tab and he hates not being able to compare prices by clicking those ads. I have on my desktop, as well as his tablet the browser privacy set to Standard. So what is causing this? I used to love firefox but these latest 3 or 4 updates have left it a hot mess. How do I fix this? It is not like this with other browsers. I have no issues with then at all. I have the same tablet as him, but it has not updated to the latest update and I am able to click those same links from it. I just ran the same search from my galaxy mobile using firefox 119.0.1 It works fine on the mobile version I am running (I know but this is why I won't update it!). Please tell me, help me figure out what is going on with this version of Firefox (version 132.0). Is it FF and google not playing well together or just a FF issue because as much as I like FF I am about to dump it for a browser that works. Just for GP, I only have Last Pass extension active. I have AdBlocker Ultimate but it is currently disabled as I thought it was the culprit and have not re-enabled it just yet. All those extensions listed in troubleshooting information I assume is things within the browser itself?? As I said I only have one extension active and only 2 installed. Please advise. Thank you.

I recently got norice that Firefox needed updating so I clicked on ok. When it got done updating, Firefox opened with my tabs but the tab spacing was gone as as well as there was no color in the Title bar and menu area, which was normally light blue to match Windows 10 22H2 backbrond I have. I looked at enabling the legacy support in about:config but it was already enabled. I use a Chrome UserChrome.css file that allows the tabs to have just a bit of space between them and rounded edges. I have vision issues and this made it so I could see open tabs and distinguish them.

This is the userChrome.css file I used: .titlebar-color{ color: AccentColorText !important; background-color: AccentColor; }

.tab-background{ border-radius: 8px 5px !important; margin-bottom: 2px !important; margin-top: 1px !important; } /* NEWTAB button */

1. new-tab-button,
2. tabs-newtab-button {

fill: red !important;
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,.7) !important;

}

/* NEWTAB button - hover */

1. new-tab-button:hover,
2. tabs-newtab-button:hover {

 fill: white !important;
 background-color: rgba(255,0,0,.7) !important;

} .tabbrowser-tab:not([selected=true]):not([multiselected=true]) .tab-background{ background-color: color-mix(in srgb, currentColor 25%, transparent); } menupopup > menu, menupopup > menuitem{ padding-block: 2px !important; min-height: 0px !important; }

root{

--arrowpanel-menuitem-padding: 2px !important; } I attached Firefox with white colored Title bar and Waterfox with colored title bar for example. Is there some setting in the about:config I am missing that was changed from 132 to 133 version? Thank you very much Vernon
