HELLO, DUE TO YOUR UPGRADE, WHICH CAME TO ME TODAY, alllllllll OF MY BOOKMARKS HAVE BEEN LOST, OR SOMETHING. Who has the TIME? to read your instructions, which usually don't follow through with any results.

I can't say enough trashy things to you that I don't have the time to deal with this issue.

There was an update and I thought I had to create a profile but no. So now I have lost all my very important bookmarks and I do not seems to be able to retrieve them. Only one date top retrieve which is only yesterday

I lost all of my bookmarks and saved passwords with the latest update. How can I revert back to my old version so I can at least save them to a file to be imported?

Good morning,

I just made your suggested "reorganisation" of the Firefox Browser with the result that all my hard collation of all my bookmarks, website and passwords are presently gone!!! I can only hope that you have a possibility to recover my datas.

Please advise your instruction to recover my websites, bookmarks etc.

Many thanks in advance.

Running windows 10. I installed the newest vewrsion of Firefox, and now I can see or find bookmarks anywhere. I tried the tutorial but I dont see anywhere in my computer where a list of bookmarks are.

MacOS Sequoia 15.7.7; Firefox 141.0.2

The "one sentence" in the heading states the problem. I am unable to use Firefox. Using Safari to make this post.

Firefox loads. It opens windows (I had fourteen open when I last used it successfully; I have many, many tabs). Then it removes each window from the screen. Firefox is in the Menu bar, but no windows are displayed. The windows still show in the list when selecting Window in the menu bar. Selecting a window in that list has no visible effect. File>New Window opens a new window, which works as expected. With one new window open, File>New Window opens a second.

Typing a few characters in the address bar opens a dropdown with a list of tabs, each with the affordance, Switch to Tab. Clicking on one takes down the list but does not open a window.

I would like, for a start, instructions on how to use Firefox starting afresh with no windows. First: having set aside the data that causes this problem. I suppose that might be simply a new profile. But would like instructions from a person interested in pursuing the problem with me while I continue with the rest of my life.

I'm willing to delete some data from the failing profile, is there is reason to do that, but would like to preserve at least a list of the URLs of the tabs of the windows. Or to learn how to see those in the profile data.

I see four profiles:

  <garble>.default-<13 digit integer>  Date Modified: Today  2.2 GB
  <garble>.Default Profile   Date Modified: Last June   24.6 MB
  <garble>.default-release-1   Date Modified: Last June, five minutes later  93.2 MB
  <shorter garble>.default-release   Date Modified: 2021   13.4 MB

Thanks in advance.
