Hello,

I had a Firefox update last night and I now have version 121. I usually look at a French site so I click on the translate symbol on the toolbar - fine. But this no longer works - the "en" appears but the page is still in French. If I click on Menu then Translate....... just the same. This has only just happened so must be a problem with the new update?

TIA

Anything relevant-looking about translation in the Browser Console (Ctrl+Shift+J ) ?

Sorry for the delay (Xmas and all that) but the problem is just the same. I've tried the Menu and clicked on "translate" but it does not change. In the status bar on the top I get the symbol followed by the "en".

This has only happened since the latest update. Something must have changed.

The only way I can translate now is to go back to what I used to do - copy and paste into Chrome then right click on "translate to english".

What are your preferred languages for webpages? Is French (fr) listed there ?

Under Menu/Settings/Language, I've got English US (the only one) then under Choose your preferred language, I've got English en. Under Translations I have French installed. If I go into Settings just above, I have, under - translation will happen automatically..........., French. This doesn't happen either automatically or if I click on the icon.
