Hi all,

I was wondering whether anyone uses KeePassXC with the Firefox browser add-on on Zorin OS. I can't get the browser add-on to recognize the app. I spent a better part of yesterday trying to figure out a solution but just can't seem to get it to work. Any help?

I'm using Librewolf (a Firefox fork) and have the same issue.

Just check Firefox messaging folder exists in your home

 ls -l ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts

In my case, I needed to create a symlink to make it work with my browser

ln -s ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts ~/.librewolf/native-messaging-hosts

Maybe you could apply a similar workaround. Hope this helps

Usually this is the main reason and I had to do the same for librewolf. And if I am not mistaken if you are hardening FF you need to make sure you are not blocking native messaging capabilities, IIRC flatpaks might also have similar “issues”.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
