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.

Firefox.exe opens last session while private_browsing.exe is running

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?
