Very dissapointed in FF

wros — Thu, 03 Jul 2025 13:37:34 GMT

Been a fan since FF started and ardent supporter. Now its buggy and constant daily updates, restarts to update every day really??? what a nuisance and not mention its buggy not supporting other apps I use whereas I hwv no issue with chrome products. I really wanted you guys to make this work but its impacting my productivity and looks like Im going to switch over 😞

Have you tried it with a blank firefox profile? Profiles can become buggy over time and sometimes you just have to port as much data over as possible and start again.

Type: firefox.exe -profilemanager in windows start menu to launch the profile manager.

Only FF Nightly has daily updates. Release may have one or two every week. Downgrading to v128ESR will have far fewer updates.
