• How can I stop Firefox from closing of tabs or sessions automatically?

  If I have one session open Firefox invites you to recover the previous session but with 2 windows, which sometimes happens with some tabs from infinity that I don't care, the last window is saved (the one with 5 tabs instead of one with 165 tabs) and I lose my entire browsing history. This question actually forced me to swap browsers repeatedly by pure frustration about the loss of research. I use TooManyTabs to save some but it becomes so tedious to manage in this elsewhere, even with tab groups, my navigation is non-linear and does not always follow a set of rules, you can group easily to do its usually the pages more valuable I lose links to. He must really be a solution for this.

  Good to hear you get this window.

  I do not envy the UI designers, trying to make things more and more visible with less space. And when they create Adaptive UIS that seems to read your mind, it's scary.

  It might be a good idea after the restoration of a session the first time to open a help page explaining how to use the history menu to restore more windows and tabs. The problem with single pages is that no one seems to remember them when they need it. Sigh.

• How can I stop firefox from the offer to remember my passwords?

  I don't want ANY program to offer to remember my password. Ask Firefox several TIMES to remember this information anywhere, anytime, that I connect to work or personal sites. I'm quite capable of remembering my own passwords, and the pop up key icon is really very annoying. How can I stop this feature?

• How can I stop firefox from asking me to connect to sync

  I like to use sync but I want to only use it WHEN I want to use. I don't have Firefox ask me whenever I open it, to log synchronization (Sync met an error during the synchronization... will automatically try again...) "whenever I open Firefox.

  Is there a way to stop this annoying warning and return just signature when I want to?
  It becomes too much like Google Chrome - where they force you to do things their way instead of letting things like please.
  Using the latest Firefox.

  I have added that the preferences of Site to make you aware what is involved with this point in time.
  I don't think it applies to synchronization, but you shouldn't remove the passwords.
  Passwords would only be saved if you click the button in the doorhanger that appears if you enter a name and a password you asking if you want to remember the password.
  If you remove the tick on remember passwords in "tools > Options > Security" while Firefox will not be asked to register a new password, so you can try this setting to see if it works with synchronization.

• How can I stop Firefox from loading automatically when I start my computer?

  Some time ago I set up Windows for Outlook and Firefox open automatically when I connect. Now, I want to stop FF to open automatically. I went in the startup folder and deleted the shortcut to FF several times but he returns. I changed the name of Mozilla Firefox in Windows programs to xxMozilla Firefox directory and has no stop from loading. If necessary, I'll take off my computer completely FF, but I prefer not to do that.

  Hi burtw,

  This isn't really a Firefox problem per say, but more a question of Windows. You'll probably look at the research in places like:

  Hope this helps!

• How can I stop Firefox from sinking my IP when I use the proxy settings?

  So basically I use settings from manual proxy on Firefox from time to time to be more anonymous. These proxies are normally rather slow (but hey, it's the price for you to pay for anonymity). Sometimes I'll see a sudden leap of speed. I suspected that the proxy may not work for some reason any. So, I use a website that tells you that your IP address is to see if the proxy settings are really working. Of course when I update the site it gives me my real IP. I have check the proxy settings and it turns out that the browser was restored to use the proxy settings of the system (for some reason that is the default instead of no proxy). This happens randomly and why not apparently when I use the Manual proxy settings and it flees my IP every time that happens (and I never know when it does, unless I am very attentive). Is it possible to prevent him from returning to the system without no reason proxy settings? BTW, I tested the proxy in question after what is happening so it still works which preclude the possibility of the proxy does not (even if that were the case, I'd rather my IP don't Connect at all that the leak). So yes, any help in getting it to stop doing that would be nice.

  Hi internetman, in your system more than details it shows as active. It may or may not be something, but try to disable in case it makes a difference.

• Hello, my name is Haysly Wells. I am buying a new comouter, and I intend to give the one I currently use for my little brother. How can I stop Firefox from automatically using my usernames and passwords on websites such as Yahoo?

  Firefox remembers my logins and passwords for some sites like Yahoo. How can I disable it, so that other users cannot access my emails?

  To clear your saved passwords, go to the Options of Firefox dialog box, click Security in the top and you will see the options about your saved passwords. You can click on the button 'saved passwords... '. "to manage and delete them.

  You can also clear your cookies and other data with the dialog clear recent history, using the drop-down menu to select the entire document and do not forget to click the details arrow to choose exactly what you want deleted.

  If it is not obvious how to find the Options dialog box and the dialog clear recent history, they are both under the Tools menu, if you showed your menu bar, or are in the main menu of Firefox as Options or history > clear recent history.

  Edit: well, I did not notice first that your operating system is Linux Mint 10. Your Options dialog is actually in Edition > Preferences.

• How can I stop Firefox from loading a page of Options?

  Starting in the past 2-3 days, whenever I start up Firefox as my default browser, with Google as my default search engine, I did for as long as I can remember, a second page load. It's called 'Options', and this is the URL:

  Subject: preferences #general

  It may be useful, but I don't want to see it every time I start Firefox.
  I tried the solution suggested by other users within the ' topic: config "but that has not worked.

  Thanks for your help. It's not life-changing, but it's boring.

• How can I stop firefox from redirecting me to dumb the survery everytime I open a new page?

  Everytime I open the browser, from this morning, it redirects me to an investigation. Everytime I open a new tab or page, it redirects me to an investigation.

  This looks like a problem with a computer/malware on your computer. Please try these steps:

  1. Reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
  2. then go to firefox > addons > extensions and where there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
  3. Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to ensure that adware is not present in other parts of your system as well.

  1. ! / usr/local/lib/Python3

  Firefox is unable to process python files, so will always open the file in an external application.

• How can I stop Firefox automatically open and forcing myself a second tab with Google sign-in everytime I open Firefox?

  Everytime I open Firefox looking for something - it automatically opens a second tab and forces me to this tab. On the second tab is the Google account login. Now, I avoid using Firefox if I can because I can't cut it.

  • Click the menu button

    

    click Help

    

    then select restart with disabled modules.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
