Why the focus on the search bar on the homepage and new tab automatically shifts to URL bar? I hate this. I cannot find any option to change this. Vivaldi gives us an option to decide what we want unlike Firefox.

Chrome focuses on the search bar on the new tab regardless, duckduckgo browser does same, edge does same, opera does same, Brave does same and Vivaldi does same but gives us option in the settings as in the image below. But Firefox automatically forces it. Why? Looks so cheap.

How to change this? I dont want this. I cannot see what I am typing when it shifts to smaller bar on the URL bar from the search bar.

I've been having problems with Youtube. When I click on a video, it doesn't play and gives me the "If playback isn't starting shortly, try restarting your device.". However when I mute the audio, it just starts playing perfectly fine without the audio.

I had four windows open with a few tabs in each. After a hard reset of my computer, Firefox doesn't recall any of those windows so I have no way to restore them. This is keeping me from accessing two different Outlook accounts. Any suggestions are helpful. I do not have a "restore previous session" option anywhere. Running 133.0.3 on Max OSX 14.7.1.

All my passwords are gone. My question is, how do I restore them?

It happened because Firefox has once again become so slow I can't use it, even to look up a solution to the problem, and apparently I misremembered the procedure from the last time, or maybe I just clicked the wrong thing. No message came up asking for confirmation that I wanted to delete them, but that doesn't seem to matter. Everything is gone.

Please note that this happened after I tried unsuccessfuly yet again to remove unwanted icons from my homepage -- because I thought all those unwanted icons from past searches might be slowing things down.

No doubt my frustration level led to a mistake, but I blame that on Firefox. Too slow almost all the time, covered in icons I do not want, and now my passwords have disappeared.

Please tell me how to restore them.

please unshare my information with anybody that's sharing with expecially the current name,location or account that shared here,it was prompted without my knowledge

I have Win 11 dell computer that does not play or pick up sound from web sites videos .I checked and tested my sound using the Microsoft platform & buy playing a disc. It works OK

In Windows 11 taskbar items are as wide as the text label. I want them all shorter (narrower). See how steam and whatsapp are not as wide as firefox? Is there any way to remove or change the website site text description labels in Firefox?
