Форум спільноти Firefox

Hi, I have a brand new macbook air and wanted to install my preferred browser, Firefox, but after installation Firefox will not launch. I’ve tried to install version 133.0.3 and when I try to launch it, Firefox always freezes and show 'Firefox (not responding)'. I have restarted my mac, reinstalled Sequoia OS, uninstalled/redownloaded/reinstalled, and I cannot get Firefox to launch, ever. Safari (built in) and DuckDuckGo (new install) browser both work.

Please let me know what I can try to do to get Firefox working.

This issue is about two executables in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox:

• firefox.exe, which starts Firefox, and
• private_browsing.exe, which starts Firefox in Private Browsing mode.

If you start firefox.exe while private_browsing.exe is running, it restores the last session. I have been experiencing this issue for about a year.

Steps to reproduce:

• Start firefox.exe.
• Open x.com instead of your home page, and xe.com on a second tab.
• Exit Firefox (Alt+F4).
• Start private_browsing.exe.
• Start firefox.exe.
• Actual result: Three tabs are opened: x.com, xe.com, and your home page.
• Expected result: only your home page is opened.

Can anybody confirm the bug? Will there be a fix for this?

IDK what topic this is! When I close tabs but later restart the browser or come out of "sleep" - they are repoened. I'm not talking about the ones I left open. I closed them and they don't stay that way. They insert themselves into their original positions as if I had told them to reopen, and accumulate. I want them gone please :O( This has been going on for years.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1284577 does not work on my new W11 laptop. I've asked before and received no answer, so maybe things will be different this time.

Are there any other instructions that might work?
