(I have no idea what topic I should have selected. If you read the text here, you can quickly see that I am flailing about.)

Please bear with me as I try to finish restoring Firefox after a spam attack that got around MalwareBytes, SuperAntispyware, and Windows Defender. I am missing a large collection of bookmarks, and until a day or ago, I had not the foggiest idea what it was called, as I had started it quite a long time ago and had not encountered any problems.

I knew that, whatever it was, was still on the computer as I had caught a glimpse or two of it. Two days ago, I found it: I clicked on the three-dot icon in the top right-hand corner of Firefox, selected Bookmarks, scrolled to the bottom of the list, and clicked on Manage Bookmarks, whereupon I found my compilation named Bookmarks Menu.

I had, more or less accidentally found, several days ago that there is supposed to be an icon specifically for that entry. I thought that I had kept a copy of what the icon looks like; sadly, I just saw that I had not so done.

However, I sort of recall what it looks like, with, I believe a star and something else, and it is supposed to be found in More tools, Customize toolbar icon collection. I looked there, with my miscreant note about the icon I need to restore the use of Bookmarks Menu; the icon was not there (and is not now, I just looked.) I don't even remember how I found the text about the icon, which had an image of it, alas.

If anyone can assist me, that would be, obviously, greatly appreciated.

Suddenly, as of a couple of days ago, without my doing changes to the settings, when I want to leave comments on YouTube, neither the cursor nor any letters I type show up. This is true for both identical brand and model laptops. I am able to comment on my Samsung 22 cell phone. I hope that someone can solve this for me. Thank you in advance.

Quite a few websites don't connect using firefox, but do with other browsers (eg my microsoft account itself). I think it's because I need to install some 'extension'. I installed the one I thought firefox support said I should, but still can't connect to some websites. What am I doing wrong or missing? I'm on latest Firefox and windows releases on a desktop.

其它瀏覽器啟動後立即可以載入網站, 但Firefox 卻要等上好幾分鐘

參考過「其它瀏覽器能載入網站,但 Firefox 不能」那篇 不過情形有點不同,其它瀏覽器啟動後立即可以載入網站、上網, 但Firefox 卻要等上好幾分鐘,網頁一直在轉圈圈遲遲無法載入, 等夠久後才開始能上網。 也不是因為剛開機,因為只關閉Firefox 重開又要重新等待幾分鐘。

I've noticed that opening a new window (normal or private mode) via Ctrl+N / Ctrl+Shift+P opens a small window rather than a full size window if I'm currently in full screen mode, whether I'm in full screen from pressing F11 or from opening a full screen video. Normally, the new windows I launch take up the entire screen space as expected when not launched from full screen mode or when starting the browser. This is really annoying to me and I can't find any configuration option that disables this.

The behavior I want is that I always get the same full sized window whether they're launched from full screen mode or not. The new window should default to a normal window and not another full screen one (this part is true with current Firefox behavior at least). I know this isn't being caused by a setting or extension because I've seen this behavior on a fresh install of Firefox with all default settings and no extensions.

Setting "full-screen-api.ignore-widgets"to true in about:config does cause it to stop happening, but this isn't an acceptable workaround for me since it causes the taskbar to always be shown.

As the title says is there any way to do that ?? It's possible on Nightly for android and of course on desktop but on the stable and beta on android not.

On the Nightly there is an option that can you disable called "Suggestions from Firefox Nightly". On the Stable and Beta this option is missing.

I use a dark background theme to reduce glare. Text usually appears white, as expected. Today, 12/13/24, the text is black. I am using version 133.0.3 (64-bit) Firefox Browser. I downloaded an update within the past few days, and while I have used the browser, I haven't typed anything onto a browser page until this morning.

Text and background appear normal with other applications.

I was wondering whether this has been reported or found previously.

I am continuing my search for other applications this my affect.
