Firefox Community Forum

I normally have 4 windows open, each with multiple tabs, for 4 work streams.

Whenever Firefox or MS decides to do an update, one window sometimes, 4 rarely, none usually, are recovered after restart. How can I ensure that Firefox remembers all the windows and their tabs before shutting down? Then reinstates them after starting up. After the last MS update, the option "Recently closed windows" was greyed out. But there had been 4 of them.

Firefox's recovery after simply rebooting the computer is more, but not completely, reliable. Win11 on a desktop computer

Thank you

I have searched (with my limited abilities) all over my computer looking for the VPN icon. cannot find. I found the check VPN to turn on or off but I haven't a clue what to do next. Heads up: I have less than 50% hearing and am losing my eyesight, so please detail info with that in mind. thank you

Hello,

I have just setup a new desktop computer which has the latest versions of Firefox and AVG Free.

Firefox is not working properly, sometimes not completely loading pages, images or is not loading pages at all.

If I disable the AVG Web Shield Setting “Enable QUIC/HTTP3 scanning” then Firefox behaves normally.

The build of AVG Free is 26.3.10886.974 and the version of Firefox is 149.0.2.

Regards,

My security suite is Norton 360. I refreshed FF and would like to place (as before) an icon in the address bar (to the left of puzzle piece) for the password manager extension. The extension is installed. Please help.

Thanks, Jake

Вопрос, думаю, миллиона пользователей: вы когда-нибудь планируете за годы работы сделать так, что бы если ты закрыл основной браузер до закрытия безопасного режима, вкладки в обычном режиме НЕ закрывались?! Сделайте окно проверки, если не можете реализовать, что бы человек прочитал сообщение и НЕ закрыл обычный режим ДО закрытия безопасного? Почему другие то могут?

Just found that using Iolo System Mechanic to clean up my desktop is constantly causing the loss of my bookmarks and possibly my passwords. I have tried to specify which file(s) to ignore in System Mechanic to avoid this issue, but it is not allowing me to specify the files in my Appdata folders that I suspect it is clobbering. Has anyone been successful with this? I am getting tired of restoring my bookmark files every time I use the program. My wife's computer is having the same issue, and even worse in that she has also had her entire bookmark backup files wiped clean, which required her to re-enter all of her bookmarks manually. The folks at Iolo want me to pay for support before I can get any help from them.

'bold text'I changed the password and your still showing the old password?you keep doing this it's the 5th time

not up dated.

hey! you getting like microsoft no support

How do I install a PREVIOUS version of Firefox? I had version 149, and it auto updated on the 7'th. After that update, the problem began. The problem is, something in that update broke google maps as it's used on Realtor.com. It's impossible to drag the map with the mouse, I can zoom in or out with the scroll wheel, but then the area I want to look at is off the screen and I can't drag it back into view.

I downloaded version 149.0 and closed Firefox and tried to install it. BUT it starts, says it's checking space requirements and such, then the installer just stops... because version 149.0.2 is installed. I don't want to uninstall it because that'll wipe out all the settings I have and I'll have to redo every da*** thing from scratch.

I don't have time to wait weeks, months or years for enough people to report this bug and then developers fix the bug and roll out an update for it. I need to fix it now, tonight. And the only way I know to do that is to install the previous WORKING version of it.

Could someone please tell me how to force the installer to install version 149.0 WITHOUT having to uninstall version 149.0.2 and then having to redo every fricking thing...

The developers really should have a ROLLBACK utility in the Settings so that when something in an update breaks the functionality, all a user has to do is click the ROLLBACK button and boom, it reinstalls the previous version without having to jump through hoops to do it.

I do not have this problem in Chrome or any other browser, it's specific to Firefox. I do not like using Chrome or the other browsers I have. I much prefer to use Firefox. Someone please help with this, please!

I did the profile thing and there's only one blank profile showing.

I did the CMD prompt -P and there is only Default showing.

This new upgrade has destroyed everything

Where are profiles and bookmarks and search history stored on my computer..

Maybe I can manually recover data, especially history and passwords.

Otherwise it's easier to just use Chrome

Since the last upgrade I have lost ALL bookmarks, History, everything is gone, Passwords also

I tried loading the old profile god knows what it is called, and there's still nothing

WHY DOESN'T FIREFOX BACKUP EVERYTHING BEFORE FORCING CHANGES

TURNS ME OFF USING FIREFOX.
