Hi, I've accidentally created a new profile and I totally didn't know what was happening as I've had this internet browser setup for years and didn't even remember creating a profile. That's why I ended up deleting all profiles thinking that's how to get things back to how they were but now everything is gone, years worth of saved bookmarks, passwords etc. It only happened recently and I have not restarted my laptop, not emptied the bin folder etc. Is there any way to recover my profile? I'm on a Mac.

Hello,

I recently opened Firefox and noticed that all my data (bookmarks, saved passwords, and history) is completely gone. I didn't make any changes or delete anything myself.

Could you please help me understand what happened and how I can recover my lost data?

Thank you.

I run normal firefox on linux. Fully up-to-date. Every time I quit the app, it reverts to a version of my profile from a month ago, and loads all the tabs I had open then, and then receives all the tabs that I sent to the device in the interim (~1 month). As I speak, it just caught the 60 or 70 tabs in this window.

I tried changing the name of my profile folder to randomstring.defaultOLD and changed one of the backups to randomstring.default. This didn't change the behavior. I'm still stuck in the loop. I saved my tabs with onetab, because firefox isn't remembering my session anymore. I thought it was something to do with updates, like it only loses its mind upon updates, but that's not true. It thinks it's updating firefox EVERY TIME, because the one time it's loading to 1 month ago it was updating, but I'm 100% sure there are no updates to firefox in my linux. It's just hallucinating.

The articles on restoring from backup are outdated. They say to use an html file. There is no html file. It's just folders for profiles, not html files. HELP!

I am trying to restore my firefox bookmarks and passwords from a back up I saved. I am signed into firefox in my browser, I go to restore back up and firefox restars and my bookmarks appearm but I'm signed out of firefox. When I sign back in, my profiles and bookmarks disappear?

After a update 154.0.1 and 155.0.1, 64 byt Firefox dod not keep the open tabs once started, but the bookmarks. After searching in Firefox help, neither I could not find a previous bakup folder, before the update data, so I cannot restore the history it manually, so I do not know what to do. It is quite dissapointing as I had dozens of tabs open for diferent putposes, and now I have no one

Hello, Since this morning after an update of firefox the history is lost and my personal bar where I stored my bookmarks is empty now after applying version 155.0.1 the problem is still alive Help Please

I haven't been able to use my bookmarks now for a few weeks and you keep updating but nothing gets resolve. Years ago MOZILLA was great with not issues but lately is always a problem and sometimes is even blocked. Was going on there?

I don't really know what had happened . . . . But as this Morning (9/1st/2026) It just seems that My Previous 100+ Open Tabs (that I was planning on Organizing this Friday) had just DISAPPEARED at like 12am on like 8/31st/2026 & 9/1st/2026 ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

• • • • Like how can I Re-Trieve/Re-Store

ALL of 😭😭My😭Past😭Open😭Tabs😭😭 ??!!!

1- Firefox shows I have windows 10. Not so. I have windows 11 home, version 25H2. This may be problem that causes the issues. 2- Since Update months ago, profiles, bookmarks and passwords disappear constantly only for me to replace manually the bookmarks and passwords to disappear over and over again. Don't need multiple profiles just one that works as in the good old days. Used it for years but cannot find help and ready to delete and just use microsoft edge. Totally out of patience. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Every few days, when I start Firefox, my bookmarks load, but they are non-functional, and the logos to the left of each bookmark name are missing. I can restore previous days sessions, but I lose all of my saved log-ins to frequently visited sites. Why is this happening?

Running Windows 11. Firefox was running at the time the hard drive crashed. When installing FF on the new drive, found the last profile folder set to parent.lock. Since it's the entire folder, I can't see which of the files in the profile were locked. I have a backup of two weeks prior (separate issue -- I was unaware my nightly backups weren't working for two weeks), but I'd like to recover the bookmark and password changes in that time.

Is there a way to get into the folder, or do I just need to accept the loss and go with the previous backup?

Firefox prompted me to update, I hit download, my entire PC froze, I restarted the computer, when I opened firefox again and hit "restore session" it restored a session that I had opened months ago. When I checked my history, everything after that older session had been deleted. All of my history from the past few months has been deleted. I tried a few different solutions from trying to research the problem, nothing so far has worked. The only thing I have found is a session restore error saying "could not decompress file", but I could not find the file it was attempting to decompress. This is the error message I found.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm one of those people that tends to have way too many tabs open at once due to poor memory, and losing months of tabs and progress is a huge setback. I'm very desperate to get the history and tabs back.
