W11, FF set as defailt browser, installed from Mozilla sites (.exe)

Any links from Whatsapp or Messenger app (and some others, but it is very likely the same issue) open in MS Edge. I found some WI to change the "microsoft-egde URL" default app, but I do not have that option. Only Edge is offered or I have to go to store and Install FF from there. Is there a way around it? My main concern is I am biuit scared to install it from MS Store as there are for sure some limitations and I might loose my opened windows and tabs...

Hi,

I have 3 firefox clients two private ones and one on my office computer. Between all client I want to synchronize bookmarks, ... except the Add-ons. Add-ons should only be synchronized between my private computers as per company policy some Add-ons are not allowed. It would be nice to have a per client synchronize setting to switch of synchronization of the Add-ons only for my company client.

Kind regards, Tolotos67

How do I stop it from appearing please? It's the address bar.. field. I don't know what to call it, english is not my native language. I just want it to remain small and static like it always did. Now it becomes a huge field that takes up too much space and blocks my vision and I just want it to disappear.

I wish Firefox would stop changing stuff like this.

Out of nowhere I got the sidebar today. An absolutely useless feature that I surely did not ask for. And there is no way of closing or removing it. Please provide a guide, to removing or hiding it PERMANENTLY!

bsky.app cookie continues to be loaded on computer even after I continually delete it, privacy set to strict and blocked under "managed exceptions, why is it being reloaded when I don't access the site. None of the sites I access are linked to it, only visited once and if this alternative to x continues to set cookies, how can I permanently block it, thought the exceptions list was supposed to keep blocking it. So far it's come back three times, I'll screenshot it next time and attach.

In Firefox 133.0, is there something else I need to configure to see the price tag icon on the address bar?

Want to try the new review checker, on several Amazon product pages with reviews, but the checker does not appear as described in the release notes.

salve so che vi siete accorti che ho eliminato l'account vecchio se riuscite a ripristinarlo elimino questo user162961878701928362866255555354061854071 ho un secondo problema con firefox mozilla quando cancello la cronologia e rimetto le credenziali non me le salva eppure sull'impostazione della cronologia ho messo la spunta su 1 e la 3 periodo (tutto) soluzioni?

Hello, I just updated my browser to version 133.0 and there was a pop up window that showed something about a review checker. I click on the link and read all about it. On a amazon web page I clicked on a review but did not see the price tag icon anywhere. I looked at my settings and could not find anything relating to the review checker. Is there something I need to enable or disable in the settings? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks, Rico

Bonsoir, Avant, j'arrivais sans problème à mettre une fenêtre qui s'ouvre quand je clique sur un résultat sur le site Flashscore au milieu de la page (comme dans l'exemple en pièce jointe) mais maintenant, cette fenêtre s'ouvre tout le temps à gauche de l'écran. Avant, il suffisait de faire "Alt+F4" ou "Ctrl+Maj+Q" pour que cette fenêtre reste bien à l'endroit souhaité à chaque ouverture. Pourriez-vous me dire ce que je ne fais pas car là, je ne comprends pas. Je vous remercie par avance pour votre réponse. Cordialement< Sylviane

My up to date FF screen starts shaking, primarily using Youtube for awhile and then going somewhere else. It will still start shaking using various websites. It takes a PC reboot to stop it. It does not happen using Chrome. I have done the following with no change: 1. Fresh install 2.Turned off hardware accel. 3. cache clear refresh 4. All extensions off 5. Started in Safe mode. This lasted the longest but it eventually started shaking.

Something to note: My screen size randomly increases/top tab bar disappears when typing something. It's random but it's new like the shaking.

I have created a new Firefox profile. Now I want to copy my settings of the Developer Tools to this new profile. This should also include the custom device settings for the Responsive Design Mode. Is there a file (or files) in the profile-folder that contains these settings, and can I copy this file (or files) to the new profile? I found this link about copying profile files, but it doesn't mention devtools settings.

Restarted my PC and on boot found all my containers deleted. Bookmarks are fine. Browser settings are fine. Other Extensions and Addons are fine. Tabs from the last session were stll there. Everything else is all good. FireFox Multi-Account Containers is the only thing that's gone wrong.

Looking at my containers.json (my best guess on what to check) they're all back to default. There's no "Old Firefox Data" folder on the desktop.

This happens ~3 times a year usually after an update or if there's a sudden shutdown due to power loss.

I've used FireFox Sync before and rather than helping, it ruined everything for no apparent reason. It duplicated the current containers, restored and duplicated old deleted containers and sites stopped using their designated containers.

It sucks. It really really sucks.

Is there a way to make local backups of containers and their designations? Just knowing exactly what to backup would be a massive help and make this a lot less distressing.

I am currently using Microsoft Edge and am looking for a new browser to use. I went through the trouble twice now in setting up Firefox the way I want to work and for it to open certain bookmarks every time I open it. But 2 times now I have closed Firefox and reopened it and each time it not only fails to open the bookmarks I have setup, it also loses the other settings I setup and acts like I am setting it up for the first time. If I can't get this problem fixed I guess I will start looking at other browsers.

Thanks, Mark
