Hello, Yesterday, when I turned on my computer, I couldn't use Mozilla browser, it keot asking me to refresh it. This happened with other broswers too and they would all open new window with every search, instead of new tab (despite the option being unchecked). I reinstalled Mozilla and that helped, not just for Mozilla but weirdly enough, Chrome was suddenly fine too? Today I turned my PC on and I'm having the same issue all over again. Please help.

hello, i am having trouble fixing the context menu. im assuming the browser updated today and something broke because the context menu is now larger than my screen and 90% of the buttons are non functional. how do i get it back to how it was previously. there are at least 5 different buttons for "cut, copy, paste" and options for things ive never seen before like "reveal password, copy phone number" and options that look like they only work on videos like "speed and loop" and theyre on every site i right click on. how do i get rid of all the excess choices and revert it back to normal

Hello, I have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox twice using two different ways found on the community/mozilla website through chrome and I am still having trouble. It started a couple weeks ago when I received a notice at the top right hand of my firefox page for an update. I tried and it shows as Unable to connect. I tried various ways to connect with mozilla with no luck. I uninstalled, restarted my computer and reinstalled twice and still having the same issue. I lost all my plug ins and add ons after the reinstall and now I can't not even get them and can no longer sign into my firefox account through firefox. Anything that has to do with mozilla I can not reach unless I use chrome which I don't like doing. I have searched the community and nothing seems to help and I even submitted a help question in help community but no responders. Anything which I found addressing Unable to Connect was years old anyway. I can only assume it had to do with the update pop up which I never got to do and assumed a refresh or a reinstall would take care of it but it hasn't. What can I do? Thank You, Charyl

Thunderbird is not working anymore. I can start writing an email but after about 5 min it dont take any characters any more. Its lagging and does out. Its in the draft folder and I ry to open but it will not work. If I just write a short message its no problem but as soon as I start write longer messages it will be trouble. It doesnt help restarting the computor. I use win 7 and the latest version. The problem started about a week ago. Writing this is no problem but if I would do it in Thunderbird it will not work by this long in the text. Best regards Stefan stefan@besthe.se

Hi,

The newest Firefox has an issue with properly parsing the javascript links in the ACS research journal articles. In these research articles, citations are clickable numbers in parenthesis. Clicking on them leads to a pop-up frame that gives detailed reference article information.

However, with the latest version of Firefox these citation links will only respond properly to the first click ever on the page. After you close the pop-up frame, any subsequent clicks on any of these links will have no response.

I attach an example article below. This bug has been repeated under Trouble Shoot Mode and I do not encounter the same issue with Chrome brower. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jacsau.2c00048

When I access chat.google.com and attempt to play a video that is uploaded to chat, it will not play. The built in player opens with a red play button but clicked it does nothing. These videos used to work up until sometime earlier this year. Most of the videos are uploads from someone's phone and they appear to be mp4. I've tried private windows, removing firefox along with all program data and profiles and starting with a clean slate with no luck. Other browsers play the videos fine, just not firefox. Attempting to play videos that used to work no longer work. Suggestions?

POST Fetch with timeout in URL Loops Requests 10 times

Scenario: I am running a node.js UI that proxies requests to the backend API. When `timeout=10` (or any valid timeout) is located in the request URL, the request will be proxied at the timeout interval ten times. In this example, every ten seconds it will reattempt for ten attempts.

If I run the same code in another browser's console, it is only executed once.

I am suspecting that there is some pre-parsing of the URL that is occurring that is making this happen.

Fetch Command: ``` await fetch("http://localhost:8080/config?timeout=10", {

   "credentials": "omit",
   "headers": {
       "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:132.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/132.0",
       "Accept": "application/json",
       "Accept-Language": "en-US,en;q=0.5",
       "Content-Type": "application/json",
       "Sec-Fetch-Dest": "empty",
       "Sec-Fetch-Mode": "cors",
       "Sec-Fetch-Site": "same-origin",
       "Priority": "u=0",

"Timeout": 40

   },
   "referrer": "http://localhost:8080/swagger/index.html?config=/config/swagger",
   "method": "POST",
   "mode": "cors"

}); ```

In the POST API, there is a 30 second sleep, then it raises a 408 error code.

When navigating to msn.com/en-us, and about 5S after the page loads, the majority of the page is covered with an ad. This only happens when using an ExpressVPN Santa Monica connection (most reliable and fastest).

If I use another VPN server location the problem is not present. Additional information: - Location: Dongguan, China - Using Google Chrome does not cause a problem. - ExpressVPN have no solution or explanation at this time. The VPN app is set to block ads but this does not help - If I connect using Surfshark there is no problem. - OS is WIN10 64-bit fully updated. - Equipment is an Asus notebook. - This issue has only appeared on or about 5 Nov which is around the time Firefox updated. - I have updated manually but no luck.

I have attached a before and after shot.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Running 115.16.3 because I have a Windows 7 Pro computer. Fine for years! Then a series of power failures and system crashes.

Now Thunderbird looks very plain - black and white lines, no 3D blue colors, Delete button is text only, it used to be red. Entire interface looks simple and old.

Checked my outgoing and incoming server settings. They match the settings in Edison+ Email that I use on my phone. Phone is getting new messages, Thunderbird on my desktop is not.

Outgoing mail asks for a password each time, which it did not before. I know the password, but what a pain.

I have hundreds, actually thousands of emails saved in local folders. They are all there, but I am worried if I can migrate them if I move it to a different computer.

My inbox has nearly 300 messages now, and growing rapidly.

HELP!
