Any way to change the way click-to-play behaves? I like the old one where you only need to click to the part where the plug-in was to run it. Currently, on Aurora, you have to click "Allow now" on the address bar as well.

it hasnt done it since i made a New Profile/ New install of UX so they either Backed it out or something else but it was annoying. it was like, when you typed a URL or clicked on a link to go to a new page it'd popup this " allow " button  to allow the page to open, but if it does it again i shall get a screenshot of it an show you

This is bugging the hell out of me...

If I click on either of these more than once, too fast, i.e double click, then it scrolls a whole windows width worth of tabs, rather than just 1 tab per click. This only happens in Aurora, not firefox (with the same set of ad-ons). Anybody know how I can disable this new feature?

Thanks.

I still haven't found a suitable solution for this. Can it be "fixed"?

You can't right-click an empty part of the menu bar and click Customize, then drag both of the icons off?

 

Have you tried using a different theme?

Thanks, but I don't want to get rid of them compleatly, rather I want to change the way they function, whereby double clicking on them does not scroll a whole windows worth of tabs.

No matter how many times I click, or how fast, I only want it to scroll 1 tab at a time, like it used to be.

Did Australis hit nightly yet?

Nope, its related two performance regression recently got fixed and landed these bug fixes in Nightly 25, I think it is too late for it to be in Nightly 25 now, it will land in Nightly 26 and then if not mature enough backout before merger to Aurora 26 and finally will be in Firefox 27.

what i dont get is, why Mozilla cant Enable the Australis Tabs in Firefox as Default now an keep testing the other crap

The issue is that if they roll it out, after that if they have to backout, even previous theme will not work as working currently, means totally useless. To fix it up, they either have to maintain two separate branches which was proposed like Australis + mozilla central and mozilla central simple without Australis, so that if some mess up happen, they can roll out other one.

 

But they think that delaying it further to fix more issues like now it is on Milestone 8, previously it was thought to roll out on achieving Milestone 7. So they are fixing more and more bugs.

 

From my side, in one sentences, what is worthless will remain worthless, Australis is crap and with it Firefox will become crap.

 

You can witness this happening with new useless Click to Play.

    • If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.
    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
