Firefox Community Forum

I have been using Mozilla Firefox on my mobile phone or PC since 2015. So, after so long, I found the Gmail that I used to log in to Mozilla from 2015 to 2018. Now, if I log in with that Gmail, will the previous history or data be restored or will it be Mozilla's?

I got up this morning and, boom, I am forced update Firefox. Lost everything: history, bookmarks, and passwords. It's suggestions are useless. I have gone to "profiles" (only 2 and none of my information is in either). I am living in Taiwan and half the time the help is in Chinese, which I cannot read. The loss of my information is devastating and I cannot find any real person to help me. There must be a way. Where do I find real help?

and how do I fix it so I can restore previous sessions I accidentally close? I accidentally deleted all prior data from whatever version of Firefox I was using the other day (I didn't have a profile as far as I'm aware) removing all saved passwords, bookmarks, history, and apparently the Restore function.

2021 Macbook Pro Sequoia 15.7.4 Firefox 152.0.3 (aarch64)

Firefox has complained for sometime that my profile was created with a newer version than what I was using. I'd click OK, and go about my day. After about a month, I decided to upgrade so it would stop bugging me. When I did, my old profile did not merge, but was deleted, and now I have lost all of my passwords and bookmarks. How can I restore them when the profile is empty?

Running Windows 10 but with extra year of security updates. Several web sites were running very slow or not loading at all. So I tried doing system restore - only went back 3 days but afterward said it had some problems, and link to Firefox did not work. So I did system recovery back to time from which I had just done restore. But I had no link to Firefox so had to download it new. But now I have none of my previous tabs, links, saved passwords,,etc. I'm hoping my previous Firefox is still on my PC and there is a way I can run it.

Firefox unable restore session when switching profiles and instead opening apps installed on the profile I'm switching to.

I have installed Whatsapp web (web.whatsapp.com) on "Profile 1" as a Windows app.

I have some tabs open in "Profile 1" and I switch to "Profile 2" and close the "Profile 1" window with "X" button of Windows 11 but keep the Whatsapp window open.

When I open the "Profile 1" from profile menu, my expectation is that, those previous tabs should be restored, but firefox is opening the Whatsapp web app/window.

How can I Recover Deleted Firefox (build 151.0.2 (64-bit) Browsing History in my version/edition of Windows 11 Pro, Version = 25H2, installed = 12/06/2024, OS Build = 26200.8524. Can you help me recover my Browsing History from Friday, 05/29/2026? Please.

ich benötige die übermittlung, da das chronic dieses eingestellt hatte: die auffindung der www´s durch das vorgehen bei dem umstellen der mozilla-umsetzung bei der neuinstallation. durch dieses hatte ich die www von einer bestimmten auffindung nicht (ich kann die www gern durchgeben: frau, bdsm, in der nähe, aber ohne kommerziellem hintergrund !).

all your articles on 'Session Restore' or Restore Browsing History, are GOBBLEDEGOOK! links that do not work or are incorrect information! Steps which do not work or lead to a previous page which was not helpful ! " Recently Closed Tabs" or History will NOT open the latest tabs. Click to ??? "whatever" is incomplete 'cause you do not tell us WHERE IT IS LOCATED. Backup" is assumed by you, but no information to set it up! Bottom line.: when Firefox crashes, we [the user] is screwed!!

The regular version of the browser is open with a bunch of pinned tabs and a private version. And!!! If you close the REGULAR version , but DO NOT close the PRIVATE one before that, then when you try to reopen the REGULAR one, ALL OPEN WINDOWS AND TABS will BE DELETED!!! WHY?!?!

And these tabs are not saved in history, because they WERE NOT active in this session!

Where do developers' hands grow from?! Well, this glitch was a couple of years ago! But now?! A month of work preparation went to hell because of Firefox failure... How do I restore tabs that were just blown away by the browser?

Logged on to find this message. Followed "Fix" set as best I could (I am puter dumb) with no joy. "Manage Bookmarks" is completely blank. All wits end, Please HELP!

I had a power outage occur recently and when i booted my computer again I found that somehow my Firefox account was disconnected. All of my bookmarks and history gone, but things like accounts and site preferences were kept. The problem is that firefox is not saving my history and bookmarks cannot be made. I have checked common causes for this problems, like not activating sync and turning off "remember history", settings which were set up correctly.

okay firefox crashed ive been using it for 3 years on steam os . it ussually crashes normally if that makes sense but this time it went poof . it saved one window containing all my browse history bookmarks dverything , i succsessfully transfered the crashed windows to kate windows containing 2.1 megabytes of extremely important data - riht before it crashed again. i am extremely frustrated , it erased all knowledge of me ever being on firefox erasing history bookmarks log ins everything. it is extremely imperative that i get these windows back . ive been battling with ai to fix the problem my last resort is you guys the ones who made firefox. id like to think you guys built something for this exact occasion . please help, you are my last resort and i would be overjoyed if you can help , thank you ,

I had my computer fixed due to a virus and now I can't get my old firefox with all my saved passwords back. How can I get it back. I'm using my same email address.

After opening up Firefox to continue work in one of my Saved tab groups, I noticed the 153.0 Update window.

All my saved tab groups have been deleted and the tab group options have been replaced with the new Tab container system in the drop down menu. I even made a new group to test and it saved and was accessible but all the important ones are gone. Nothing in the Json files, tried most of the solutions I've read online. none of these work.

Saved Tab groups don't to sync across devices and are local, so surely they should be saved locally on the system.

What the hell has happened to the support environment? I've tried to resolve two big issues recently, and I can't find anything of value. I've lost the ability to pin an extension to the toolbar after losing my entire profile on this computer, tabs and all, using Tab Manager. I can't find a way to recover the profile, so I've given up on that. Now I can't get my most-used extensions back on the toolbar.
