Firefox Community Forum

Not at all sure what topic category applies.

For some time, I have been trying to find my Bookmarks Menu without having any luck even finding its name. I knew it was there as I had seen it inadvertently once or twice, but was as far as I got. Now that I have at last found the name and even seen it in the bookmarks area, where I was able to rearrange the folders in alphabetic order.

Here is a link telling how to put its icon on the bar, which I cannot do as it is not there. I have scanned the list of installable icons to no avail. What can I do to find the miscreant icon?

I first noticed this issue on "Zen Browser" which is based on firefox source code, but some time after i re-installed Firefox and noticed the issue was on Firefox, like, literally the same lag that happened on Zen was happening on Firefox. I tried deleting the .mozilla(.zen for Zen) and still nothing. i did noticed some things:

- When i start Firefox on safe mode, the lag doesn't happen
- On my brother user on the PC, the lag simply didn't happen
- When the lag is happening, the disk reading goes REALLY high: 

I'll put a screenshot of the disk reading usage, even if it's on Zen executable, remember that the same issue is also happening on Firefox (and was where i noticed the disk usage thing)

Hi, the other day I upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Long story short, I had to reinstall Windows 11 and all my apps, including Firefox. My visited links no longer change color. I tried the Settings / Language & Appearance / Manage Colors and nothing works. I did notice that if I click on a link, it changes color for a fraction of a second then reverts back. On a similar note, I use NoScript. I've noticed it looks different. Maybe a background grid. And Privacy Badger is missing the oval slider boxes and the colored selection tab has no color. I'm guessing this is all related somehow.

About a month ago I found that, when I clicked on Firefox browser, instead of the usual page with the default search engine duckduckgo coming up, a very plain page which just said "Search" appeared on screen with an address in the search bar which said something like "hp-search xxxxxxx". And when I entered the address I required it was clear that Yahoo was doing the search. I tried deleteing Mozilla from the Windows 10 control panel and then reinstalling it but each time I did this Firefox seemed to have been replaced by hp-searchxxxx and Yahoo. Eventually, after using an alternative uninstaller (Revo), I was able to remove and replace Mozilla with the genuine browser and search engine. I have a feeling it was when I added "Privacy Badger" or some other extension to Mozilla that the trouble occurred. Has anyone else had this problem and, if so, could they please tell me what I error I made?

My organization uses Box Drive for file storage/transfer. I recently upgraded to an ARM-based PC (Microsoft Surface) which the Box app does not support, forcing me to use a browser to access my files.

When I upload a file to Box via Firefox, it repeatedly uploads the same file until I close the browser. I only noticed this after coming back to the tab and noticing that the PDF I uploaded was on version 1,937 and counting. I tested another file and observed the same behavior.

The behavior persists when using a private window with all extensions disabled.

The bug does not appear to affect Chrome: files upload once as expected.

In Firefox, other services such as Dropbox and Google Drive are not affected, only Box.

Anybody else experienced this and found a solution?

Dear Sirs,

For at least the last two weeks, I have experienced a lot of trouble working with Mozilla Firefox. Just reading my emails is an arduous task.

It crashes, I lose internet connection, it does not "respond," etc., and Symantec Norton 360 cannot find out WHY! I have deleted Firefox and reinstalled it, and it is still unreliable.

Before I have to resort to using another browser, can YOU tell me what is going on. I have a Dell desktop, using Windows 10 Pro (obtained in 2018). Firefox is my default browser. I also have Google Chrome installed.

Please help!

Sincerely yours,
