Firefox Community Forum

About a third of the time when I go to a new site I have to "reload tab" once or twice. Sometimes it will open the site and then stall and I have to "refresh". You keep upgrading so I assume my software is up to date.

For bunnings.com.au and youtube.com I can't get the websites to respond to mouse clicks. I run Firefox ESR. I can't install any chrome based browser as they are blocked. I plan to stay with Firefox. I am on 140.6.0esr. This problem has been happening since at least 140.2.0

When I go to youtube.com and type in the search bar, nothing happens. When I go to bunnings.com.au same. I can't search. Clicks on anything are ignored. There may be other sites I have not yet discovered. I can type in the search bar but pressing enter or clicking search does nothing.

For you tube, if I go to DDG and do a search, the you tube videos will play when embedded there, but the actual youtube site won't work for me.

What I've tried. Disabled all add ons Uninstall all add ons Disable enhanced tracking Run Firefox in troubleshooting/safe mode Disable WIndows firewall Remove WIndows hosts file Disable all router firewalls Disconnect from VPN Restart router Clear Firefox cache Delete all cookies Rename prefs.js and restart Firefox with defaults Create a new Firefox profile Run virus scan - nothing found. Reinstalled Firefox Reinstalled Windows

Not sure what to try next.

When I do this:

Click the menu button Fx89menuButton to open the menu panel. Click Bookmarks and then click the Manage bookmarks bar at the bottom. In the Library window, click the Import and Backup button and then select Restore.

I get a blank slate. No files listed.

When I go into the Profile, I see C:\Users\whatt\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\shgdgxn6.default-release-1752271533405\bookmarkbackups

How do I restore bookmarks from that file?

I want the whole screen when I press F11. But the address bar and tabs bar are no longer hidden. How can I hide them, or better make F11 hide them as it did before.

I am finding that occasionally using Firefox on Windows 10, that the Facebook page stops and wont let me open or upload files and AOL mail disappears although the site is open. If I go to using MS Edge both sites are OK.

I love Firefox but may have to stop using it as my default.

i have no sound in firefox ,while other applications and edge or chrome give me normal sound.It ia no muted ,checked the volume mixer everything should be working but no sound

Greetings Ya'll,

I have to apologize if this is a double post, but I came back to the forum, & wanted to see if there were any responses, but i could only find my post listed under "My Profile"/"My Questions".

My original post was made Dec. 19-2025

=======================================

Early this morning as I went to use the Firefox browser, on My Desktop, I got an update, & then firefox opened, somewhat.

The homepage did not fill in with favorites, suggestions, etc, and in fact all that did load was the Search bar, but not one of my usual website buttons. The "edit", "help", etc. buttons at the upper left hand corner did load, but that is all. Not one of the buttons work, nor can I close out the Firefox page, by tapping the "X" in the upper right hand corner.

The only way that I could close out the "Firefox Page" was by going through the "Control/Alt/Delete" & then "Signing Out", which would initiate a "Re-start". Once I signed in, I could return to the Desktop, where everything works.

I use Firefox as my Browser on my Android phone, & at this moment, I've not had any problems using Firefox on my Cell Phone.

The only way that I could get to the Mozilla Website was by using the Microsoft Edge Browser, which is not giving me any problems as far as accessing the Internet!

How can I correct this problem, & go back to the Firefox Browser?

Firefox private browsing keeps pinning to taskbar. I keep "unpinning" it, and it re-appears. I use multiple desktops, and when I change desktops it re-appears.

I went into browser.privateWindowSeparation.enabled, and set it to false, and yet this still happens. Also tried browser.privateWindowSeparation.enabled, and setting it to false.

Firefox version 146.0.1 (64-bit).

This never happened before a recent update, but I'm not sure which one.

Thanks.

I did the required up date a few days ago, and completely lost my Bookmarks....both on my toolbar and the "other Bookmarks"....

I have always used Firefox as my default, but now am at a loss, and am having to use Chrome. I have Windows 11 installed, so I am totally confused and shocked that this has happened to me.

when i restarted firefox as requested, bookmarks displayed across top of screen were gone. the suggested fix was no help. Said cause was a FF file was in use. It implies i have Win10. I have Win11. **************

I have messenger loaded but with Firefox i can not video call when i want to call a friend or family. I have no way to call any one i do have a web cam. do i need to go to Chrome every time i want to call. Messenger has stopped desktop messenger that was how i could call but now i can not is there some way to Facebook video call on Firefox please let me know thanks I want to stay with Firefox why is there no way to get video calls on Facebook??

Hallo Zusammen,

ich stelle bei vielen Seiten im Internet fest, daß mit Firefox die Texte nicht richtig dargestellt werden, als ob Übersetzungsfehler vorlägen. Wenn ich zum Vergleich die gleiche Seite im zweiten Monitor paralell auf MS Edge aufrufe erscheint der Text dort richtig dargestellt. Zur Verdeutlichung meines Problems habe ich zwei Screenshots angehängt. Sie erkennen oben eine fehlerfreie Darstellung und unten die gleiche Internet-Seite - zum gleichen Zeitpunkt - mit dem Mozolla Browser.

Was muß ich an welcher Stelle in den Einstellungen von Firefox V146.0.1 für 64 bit auf Windows 11 ändern, damit ich weiterhin bei Euch bleiben kann? Für Eure Unterstützung im Voraus herzlichen Dank. Gruß aus Deutschland/Bayern/Augsburg

I updated Firefox for my laptop this afternoon and another Firefox window opened and I had 2 windows. I closed the original window. I tried to restore my tabs and bookmarks in the new window. My Recently Closed Tabs and Recently Closed Windows are greyed out in the "hamburger"menu. I have tried everything; trying to restore from my profiles folder on my laptop, trying about:session and at this point I am Totally lost and frustrated. I am asking for help :-) please to have what I had before. Thank you

I am so disappointing in the CEO's decision to push AI. Firefox has a very dedicated following BECAUSE it does not push AI and all the other shady things other Browsers push. Everyone I know will stop using Mozilla browsers if they continue on in implementing AI.

I have spent so many hours deleting every sneaky file, disabling every program, having all firewalls block any AI. (I really do need to switch to Linux with the amount of time I spend on this lol...)

How do we contact the higher ups? If large numbers of users emailed/heck even wrote (making a point that we will delete our Mozilla accounts if AI happens) maybe it could help? Or a petition?
