Firefox Community Forum

I lost the tabs in all my groups, so I restored from a recent backup. It seemed to be going well - I saw the names of dozens of tabs rattling across the top of the screen - but when it had finished, the groups are all still empty.

This is disastrous. There were dozens of groups containing hundreds of tabs..

Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Thank you.

items dragged to overflow menu pop back out, will not stay there - dunno how to fix this.

Hate the "puzzle piece." Involuntarily upgraded to 115.25.0esr and it lost all my bookmarks, addons, history. How do I know which profile was the most recent, before the update added a new profile? How do I find my addons from the previous version? history?

i need to get my old bookmarks back. my pc has gotten scewed up by microsoft and i had to reinstall firefox, now my bookmarks and passwords are gone. can you help??

Installed 134.0.2. Bookmarks disappeared. Went to restore backups, receive message "unable to process the backup file". All of my bookmark backup files receive this message when I try to restore.

All my data seems to have disappeared. I have no browser history, and all my bookmarks are gone. the only browser history shows when I started looking for the lost data, anything before that is gone. please help

Today my Firefox browser updated & all my bookmarks have disappeared. In place of my Bookmark toolbar is just "For quick access, placeyour bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. Manage bookmarks(link). The bookmarks side bar is empty. I've followed the instructions to try to recover them but the page(Goes there from the "Manage Bookmarks" link) they send me to has no functionality. Whatever I enter goes nowhere, whatever I select. I've tried several different routes from the support/help pages to resolve but always end up at this dumb page.

How do I get my bookmarks back when the tools to do so don't seem to want to work?

This question relates to version 134.0.2 (64-bit). This morning I started Firefox and found that many of my bookmarks were missing. On trying to restore from the program automatic backups, I get the repeated message "Unable to process the backup file." On examination, the files, while not in ASCII, appear to contain ASCII text strings recognizable from the bookmark descriptions. They are not, at least, empty. Unfortunately, I do not have an HTML format backup. Any idea why none of the backups work or what options I have? Thanks in advance.

Придется вам как-то перевести самостоятельно то что написала на английский. Зачем писать что при обновлении все будет сохранено, если после обновления, половина окон на восстановилась и история предыдущих посещений пропала.? и как мне теперь все это восстановить обратно?'

Late yesterday, all my bookmarks disappeared. Whenever Firefox ask me to update, I do. Please advise if they are stored anywhere from which I can retrieve them. Probably close to a thousand.

My account was recently hacked by someone using find-it pro hijacker after i clicked on a phishing/spam email disguised as a git-hub repository for AI/machine learning.

The hacker gained access to my google,MS,linkedin,X and other email accounts he removed my profile photo on linkedin and deleted all my education and employment details, he also went to X and changed my name from Daniel to (Tesla Investor) in order to deceive innocent people,he also deleted or synced a lot of my emails in a bid to sieve for financial data he can use to compromise my banking and card details

i have been able to recover all the accounts, made a police report to protect myself in case of impersonation and also following up with the x-support team to unmask his identity as he even posted! from my account.

I had to wipe out everything Firefox from my system as i did not know exactly what directory had been compromised unfortunately l lost all my bookmarks of years containing many links and urls i frequently categorized for my education and professional development

I prefer Firefox because the browser allows a user to create folders and subfolders and then bookmark any url or site for future reference and ease of navigation e.g (software eng -> frontend,backend,ml) i have hundreds of bookmarks and folders and i can no longer see anything as i performed a clean installation and used malware bytes to remove the infections that had hidden themselves in various system folders on my local machine, everything including my passwords had also been synced to the hacker's local machine.

Is there anyway Firefox can help me restore or sync back all these hundreds/if not thousands of bookmarks and folders on my account from their own servers, i just feel a loss in enthusiasm that someone could just take away in an instant years of hardwork, it is hard for me to start bookmarking all these information that took years to arrange neatly in my firefox folders so that if i sign in on another system, i can easily continue my work as a developer.

I would appreciate if anyone can guide me on how to reach Mozilla team if they can help to get a re-sync if possible even if it is up to Jan 31, 2025

Going forward i wont store any passwords on Mozilla again as i have gone to the settings to turn all these features the hacker exploited off, but just bookmarks and i have setup 2fa too on all my most sensitive work and email sites.
