I am using VPN and have excluded FF using split tunnel, so I enabled Secure DNS in FF with Cloudflare. When I first launch FF, I get a blank page and nothing in the address bar. After that, I can open all webpages just fine. It's only that first page right when launching FF that doesn't work properly.

I updated my desktop browser today and now there is an expandable sidebar at the left margin of the window showing tool icons for Tabs from other devices, History and Customize sidebar. I can see how to remove tool icons and how to expand or collapse sidebar but can I remove the sidebar completely? Is this an option? I prefer the old look with the browser web page content extending all the way to the left of the screen, without the narrow vertical sidebar.

Hi,

My laptop had broken and I had to reinstall Windows. All of my files had been lost on the C drive, including Firefox bookmarks. Sadly there weren't any backup json files anywhere else. Is there a way to recover those bookmarks somehow?

Thank you, János

Hi, I hope someone can help me. Please note I live in UK and I have a Desktop Computer but do not have a mobile phone. I use Firefox browser. This is what happened over 2 days Thurs and Friday. 28-11-24 THURSDAY @1.38pm On Thursday morning I used my computer with Firefox browser, and it worked perfectly OK. Then I had to go out shopping @11-15am. When I came back in doors @1.38PM I turned on my computer, it booted up as normal, then a Blue Screen appeared, with a message from Microsoft re back up in Cloud. I have not actually used Cloud before, although I did try to set it up earlier this year but not completed. So, I thought I would try again. This time I tried to register for the first time on cloud, I entered my email address and country, date of birth and then a password. Maybe something else, can't remember.

Then it asked for a code number that it said it had sent to my email, but I could not get that email then as I was stuck in between booting up and the Desktop screen. ( I DO NOT HAVE A MOBILE PHONE) As I did not have the code number, I clicked on, what may have said “not now” or similar message. Anyway, it would not continue so I had no option than to press the back button arrow, top left corner, several times. I think it took me back to the page with choices. I think I clicked remind me in a few days, which took me to the Desktop.

Normally my computer automatically opens Firefox Browser, but this time, I had to open Firefox, still no problem so far and the rest of Thursday OK. I did not try Microsoft Cloud again on Thursday.

29-11-24 Friday @ about 10.15am I thought that when I booted up, it may go back to where I left it Thursday, but no. When I turned on, there was no sign of the Blue Screen or Microsoft Cloud message re Back Up. When computer reached the Desktop, it did not load Firefox but an ERROR MESSAGE. It said. ERROR: PLATFORM VERSION "133.0" IS NOT COMPATABLE WITH MINVERSION >= 132.0.2 MAXVERSION <= 132.0.2 MAYBE TRY TO REINSTALL FIREFOX

It worked perfectly well before I tried to set up Microsoft Cloud yesterday (Thurs 28-11-24) now I cannot load or use Firefox at all, because it comes up with the same message every time. I have tried turning the computer off and back on, no luck.

My worry about Reinstalling Firefox is that I have hundreds of websites saved in bookmarks folders and I am not sure if I would lose them.

At this moment I have had to endure Microsoft Edge which I don't like. Don't put me through any more pain. Can you please help out a pensioner lost in the modern technological world. Thank you David

How the hell do I remove this crappy sidebar!?!?! Your suggestion of tapping the cog and clicking on sidebar button DOESN'T WORK! REMOVE IT! It is annoying, terrible! Why would you mess with something that didn't need to be fixed ? What are you, Jaguar? Remove it now, actually do something and fix it.

I can#t even begin to think where i should have best posted this question, but here it is anyway: Yesterday (or the day before) i activated the latest FF update (using Windows 11) - and now, today, i notice no copy and paste function for nothing anymore! Nada! What on earth is going on please, and more importantly, how can i fix this (or how can FF fix it if they screwed up the latest update)??

At first i thought it#'s only on Gmail and G translate, but after a while it became clear it's completely disabled. So i opened my backup browser, that Chrome base Edge browser - and see there all copy and paste actions work like normal.

Need a fix for this, otherwise i have to switch to that Microsoft browser, that would ba a truly sad day :-(

My cat walked across my keyboard and now video does not play on the peacock webpage. Video playback is normal on all other webpages when using mozilla. Peacock is the only one im having issues with.

This happened too much, like 6 times when using firefox in this month. I dont want to shut the program because I got unsaved notes in it. I was listening to music and it just began to play it non stop. and it dont respond.

please help, a million thanks!

I try to restart network or suspend the process nothing works. If I could make firefox reopen to it's original state+ cookies; no site reloaded and get back my incogico it would be much appreaciated. ALso everything was saved in firefox since I did not end the task, I dont want to lose those.

I prefer the tabs be below the bookmark bar, and successfully modified the CSS file to do this some time back. Now update 133 has once again pushed them up below the menu bar. What do I have to do to get them back where I want them this time? And why can't you just leave the tab location preference alone when doing updates?

Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out because I have some concerns regarding Norton’s HTTPS scanning feature. Recently, I noticed that Norton scans HTTPS traffic, and I’m unsure about how this impacts my privacy and security. While I understand the feature is meant to detect threats, I’m particularly worried because it involves decrypting sensitive information. This raises concerns about whether my personal data, such as login credentials or payment details, could be exposed during the scanning process. Has anyone else experienced issues or found this feature problematic? I'd love to hear about your experiences and whether there are any steps I can take to ensure my online security without risking privacy.

I also have found a names of site that were blocked in the report generated from Norton

Thanks in advance!

Currently, and for some reason there seems to have been a change that's occurred because my browser seems to think I'm out of the country (USA) as my searches return "We don't ship out of the country." How do I tell my browsers that I'm in the USA?

When I try to open my LastPass vault: https://lastpass.com/vault/ The "LastPass •••|" logo is displayed, but nothing further happens.

This page is being loaded correctly by Safari and by Google Chrome.

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?

My son's email messages are being blocked. As far as I know he is the only one. Also, when I try to open a site from the email function, it just keeps searching... This appeared about two weeks ago. I searched for "Blocked Email" and only one has been blocked; a conspicuous spam.
