I enter the primary password for saved password when starting FF as prompted. It takes password fine and works just fine on sites just as designed and has worked for years. Lately last couple weeks since last update to 132.0.1 I notice a change. I didn't notice before this update. When starting Firefox it asks for primary password which is normal, I enter it and all is fine. I can go to sites and all works fine, passwords and user id are entered when prompted. However, later in the day when I go to a site wanting password, I get the prompt to enter primary password again. That never use to happen, once I entered the primary password, it didn't prompt again unless Firefox was restarted. Has anyone else seen this? Maybe it started and I just didn't notice some time ago. I know it wasn't that long ago the primary password prompt didn't have the little eye so you could see what you typed. I liked that, because FF for whatever reason wasn't always realizing I had the shift key pressed. Now with the eyeball I can see that it doesn't have what I typed, but that is not the problem I am asking about. Below is what Mozilla says about primary password:

Important: After you have defined and set your Primary Password, you will be prompted to enter it once for each Firefox session, when Firefox needs access to your stored passwords. This also applies if you want to add, remove or show a password.

The situation is like this: I once reinstalled Edge, and then Firefox disappeared from the default browser options in Windows settings. No matter what I do, I can't make it appear again and set it as default browser. I want to ask if there's any solution, apart from reinstalling the browser,because I have a lot of data in the browser and I'm afraid backing it up and transferring it won't be convenient.

Per this thread I have been able to determine that there is some misconfiguration surrounding my Firefox profile that is causing Google services not to load. When typing a Google URL into the address bar, upon striking the return key, nothing happens. Additionally embedded YouTube videos do not load on any site, further ruling out connection issues and isolating the issue to have to do with Google services.

How can I repair my existing Mozilla profile so that I can resume accessing Google services?

Please keep in mind that I understand that the issue is with my profile, but I do not want to scrap that profile which I use to sync settings across several devices.

Thanks in advance, everyone!

I use FF on desktop. Recently, I've run into a problem. My desktop browser will not load any pages... except Youtube. Youtube loads just fine, I can open a video or browse channels or community pages normally. I have fully reset my browser, reinstalled it, and disabled extensions. Other browsers on my PC will work normally. I have very few extensions: Sponsorblock for Youtube, uBlock Origin, and Facebook Container, that's it. I am not using a proxy or VPN. Troubleshoot mode did not fix the issue. I'm not the most tech savvy, so I apologize if I missed anything here.

Any insight is appreciated. Thanks!

I'm talking about the built in "AI Overviews" for Google search. When the mouse is anywhere over the search content it provides, the page will not scroll until I move below it, or to the scroll bar.

I just realized it does not occur in Chrome, as far as I can tell. The Chrome search does not show the AI indicator on top.

The best you get is an occasional slight single jumping motion with a mouse wheel scroll anywhere withing the boundaries of that straight line just below the search field, the straight line below "Show More", and the inner border of the scroll bar

Ever since I got 133.03 my Dell cpu freezes a lot. Over the last hour it froze 15 times. This is terrible reliability.

I hired Dell Tech Support and they checked my software and there were no issues. I have run advance Norton features and there are no problems. Therefore the issue is NOT with my 20 month Dell computer.

Firefox has always been reliable until late August. For four weeks it would freeze and lock up. by the end of Sept it was slightly better and then fine in November. Now it only freezes, put the mouse over the image and it freezes. Play with it for a while and it unlocks.

I am totally fed up with Firefox. I'll be starting my taxes soon and year end things and can't afford to have all these issues and rebooting to help eliminate the issue.

When is Firefox tech support going to help me? When is Firefox going to fix the issue? After Christmas I am looking into the Microsoft software......enough is enought!
