If you use the InternetFirefox browser, it's Mozilla, and periodically encounter the problem of downloading videos, images or lack of any response when you click on a button somewhere on the site, perhaps the mess is caused by the settings for displaying "Java" in your browser. How to enable Java in Firefox, you can learn in this article.
Java is one of the most common web technologiesToday. It is based on the functioning of many sites and programs. Why is Java support in the browser not enabled? Firefox refuses to support the work of Java automatically, because it considers it vulnerable to viruses. In the future, Firefox plans to refuse to support any plug-ins (tools for content playback), except for Adobe Flash.
But this is Mozilla’s policy regarding"Java" does not mean that when you turn on the corresponding plug-in, a million malicious programs will immediately rush onto your computer. Sometimes you need to enable Java in Firefox because of the speed of the site. This can be done in several ways.
Suppose you surf the Internet, find a video that interests you, and want to watch it. You press the Play button, but instead of playing, the following screen is displayed:
The only action you needto make is to click on an inscription. In addition, Firefox can offer you to remember this site and always activate the Java plugin on it. If you trust this site, then confirm your choice in the dialog box (Allow and Remember - "Allow and remember").
In addition, sometimes the application lock comesfrom java itself, not from firefox. In more modern versions of Java, there are a number of fairly stringent requirements for running applications. If the developer is unknown, then most likely the ability to run a Java application will be blocked. Even if you decide to enable Java in Firefox manually, by accessing the security settings and highlighting the desired site or application as an exception, the browser will still consider them suspicious and display a warning about a potential threat.
You can get to activate Java supportanother way. First you need to go to the page with plug-ins (open the menu and select the "Add-ons" button or press the key combination Ctrl-Shift-A). You will see a list of addons, among which we need to find the following:
If this plug-in is not listed,Use the search box in the upper right corner. You can search by the word Java - the search will give out several add-ons, from which you can choose the right one, having previously studied exactly what functions they are meant to perform.
If all of the above actions did not helpyou enable Java in Firefox, you may need to completely update the application on your computer. To do this, you need to download the latest version from the developer’s website and install it on your device. After that, try again to open Firefox and launch the problem site or application. In the end, a moody website can be opened in another browser and see how it will behave there.
