Hi!

Very satisfied new Firefox user here :)

I've just noticed that from my Windows 11 Firefox 132's Account menu, I can close tabs open on my other computers via the sync feature. However, the X button that lets me close the tabs only seem to appear next to tabs open on my other computers that also run Firefox 132, while my computers that run the 128 ESR version don't show the X button next to their open tabs.

Is this because the close synced tabs feature was implemented after version 128, or is it blocked for some reason due to the nature of the ESR version? Or am I just doing something wrong with the sync settings on my ESR versions?

I've tried looking up the release notes and also asked Perplexity to try to figure it out, but all attempts failed to find the reason and a fix :(

Thanks!

The extension developers claim that the issue is with Firefox and deny no fault whatsoever.

Bonjour, Depuis quelques jours lorsque s'affiche les résultats pour une recherche, je me trouve toujours avec une dizaines de résultats faisant l'objet de publicités. Je dois scroller jusqu'en milieu de page pour obtenir des sujets de réponses qui correspondent à ma requête. Ce comportement semble être récent peut être du à une mise à jour du navigateur? Ou bien à un paramètre que j'ai modifié par inadvertance? Si vous savez la cause de ce comportement, je serai ravi d'en connaitre la solution. Merci pour l'aide.

Hello, For the past few days, when the results for a search are displayed, I always find myself with dozens of results with advertisements. I have to scroll all the way to the middle of the page to get the results that match my query. This behavior seems to be recent, perhaps due to a browser update? Or a parameter I've inadvertently changed? If you know the cause of this behavior, I'd love to know the solution. Thanks for your help.

Hi everyone,

Prior to the release of Firefox Desktop 133.0, which I believe came out today on 11/26, I was using the profile switcher that was in the Firefox application menu. I had all my profiles created in about:profiles and I had browser.profiles.enabled set to true. This allowed me to easily switch between profiles by pressing the hamburger button in the top right. However, it is no longer appears for me after the latest Firefox update. I'm not exactly sure if I'm missing something, or if this was intended as I know the profile switcher was a work in progress feature.

This reddit post shows what the feature looked like. I will also attach the images.

If anyone would know why this no longer appears to be working, or how to fix it I would greatly appreciate it. I know I can just use about:profiles or some other alternative, but I found this to be the most convenient.

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,

My setup is an old win7

2 days ago I got a power outage. When I turned my PC back on, thunderbird updated itself to 115.16.3 (32 bits) I am not sure which version it previously was.

Anyway, I have 4 profiles, the 3 profiles I was not connected on when the PC crashed are fine, totally unaffected. That should be a hint. My main profile was connected at the time, in fact I was writing an email when the crash occured. When back on I executed thunderbird I chose my main profil. I was immediately prompted with a 'welcome to thunderbird' asking me to input my credencials. I immediately closed TB scanned my disk for issues, checked my profiles folder which appeared to be fine. I indeed have a folder named hnych9cb.default in my %APPDATA%\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles which is was 2.2Go.

Then I had the (bad?) idea to input my credencials as asked thinking it might help TB to connect to the folders/emails inside my profile folder. I did but instead it downloaded and displayed the folders/emails as they are on my email server and now my hnych9cb.default is 3.7Go ....

This is a mess

Is there any way or hint to save the day ?

Hi,

I am disabled and in a wheelchair. I have a Dell Inspiron 7591 2-in-1 laptop as a communication device to speak. Since my hands don't work, I have to use head switches in order to operate my device. I downloaded and installed the latest version Firefox (version 132.0.2 (64-bit)) via Microsoft Store on my laptop running Windows 10 Home. I have a Jabber/XMPP account to communicate with my family members and friends. In order to mount my laptop to my wheelchair, my laptop has to be in tent mode (upside down, but my screen automatically rotates to the proper orientation.) When I go to mov.im in the Firefox browser and video call someone, I appear upside-down on their end. I also visited https://webcamtests.com/ in Firefox and I appeared upside-down on my screen. However when I use other programs (eg: the camera app in Windows, Google Chrome, etc.), it recognizes my laptop is in tent mode so those programs automatically adjust my camera orientation. I would like my Firefox browser to recognize that my laptop is in tent mode and automatically rotate my camera to the proper orientation. Is this possible? If not, I would like to make this a feature request please?

Thank you

Since installing thunderbird, following failure of my Outlook email manager I have been unable to print an email attachment using the system dialog option and also unable to print in draft format to save on ink.

Any suggested fix?

Hello,

After force closing Firefox app when I tap on the bookmarks under settings it always defaults to "Desktop Bookmarks". Is there a way to make it go to "Bookmarks Toolbar" folder content by default?

Thanks, Dejan

I do not want companies to hold my hand and secretly micro mange my browsing. How do I turn off Total Cookie Protection completely. I am blocked on some sites even if click on the Shield and turn off Total Cookie Protection.

For some reason I have recently started to be unable to view images in emails.

Various image types such as JPG or PNG do not show & I get an error message like this one:

You have chosen to open:

 [*) u3pwr_feed.jpg
       which is: JPEG Image (109 KB)
       from: u3pwr_feed.jpg

What should Thunderbird do with this file?

    O Open with
    O  Save File
    [ ] Do this automatically for files like this from now on.

This is a big Thunderbird Portable 128.4.3 32 Bit Install with many years of emails.

Thanks, Brian.
