I pressed the backup button to backup my firefox stuff before switching to linux, and now that im on linux the file i was given a docx file, is completely unusable to restore anything, meaning that about a dozen of my accounts are completely lost, I did not do anything to the "backup" file besides put it into my google drive.

I used firefox troubleshoot mode to see if the problem is caused by an extension etc. But my tabs were still crashing, this time, firefox as a whole crashed. Sometimes a tab crashes, and sometimes firefox crashes. I tried to troubleshoot with an llm, it said that i don´t have enough RAM, i have 8Gb, but its shared between RAM and VRAM. I was on fedora before, the problem occurred there so i switched to mint with the thought that mint is more lightweight so it should have more RAM available for tabs. But that wasn´t the case. Sometimes i only have 1 tab open, nothing else on firefox and on my laptop open at that time, but the tab still crashes.

I hope i´ve provided enough information, if not, let me know what your missing to fix and i hope i can provide it :)

Hello, I bank with Fifth Third a regional bank in Ohio. I travel a lot.illa not have a While on a trip I was unable to connect to my bank. One of the issues they mentioned is Firefox is not secure and thus will not interface with their system. My question is why does Mozilla not have a team which inter-acts with banks to insure that Firefox works properly and is considered safe, secure, and reliable? Thank you, Bill
