Today I tried to restore a Firefox session after a crash and the Session Restore page came up with the restore session button greyed out and the list of tabs to restore is empty.
There is also no option to restore the previous session in the settings drop-down menu.
The next thing I did was check the Mozilla Support forums and found some helpful advice: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1204253 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1216918 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1224948
Based on this advice I went to "sessionstore-backups" in \Users\your-user-name\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
and backed up the files I found there. I even used ShadowExplorer to find some earlier copies of said files and copied those as well.
So -with Firefox closed- I copied an older recovery.jsonlz4 and replaced the new one with it.
Sadly, when I then open Firefox, the same thing happens. Recovery page with no option to recover, 0 tabs present.
Am I doing something wrong?
P.S. I should add that I simply DO NOT HAVE a restore session option in my drop-down menu. See attached images.
P.P.S. No longer having the option to get the "ask to save and quit" notification when exiting the browser is a travesty. That option should be brought back ASAP. Both for the extra warning before quitting, and to give you the ability to choose whether or not to discard certain tabs.

Firefox 64.0.2 (64-bit) will not sync my Notes. I installed it through testpilot. I use Sync without issues to sync my Bookmarks. I click on the "Sign in to Sync" field, which shows the sign-in page, I sign in, and it returns me to the Notes bar where the field now reads "Reconnect to Sync", and after a while "Activate your Account". I also get a mail "New sign in to Sync". Did this several times, and on two different PC - a Laptop with Windows 10 and a desktop with Windows 7. My Android account has Notes connect to Sync without any issues. I tried the same with Noscript and ublock disabled. Thanks a lot for any pointers

For the last few months (starting with an upgrade to new version), Firefox has asked for my master password immediately upon startup (or as soon as startup is complete), regardless of what web page I am viewing. This does not seem right; it should prompt for master password only when a site that I visit requires a site password.
Another recent post on the support forums advises going to security settings, and disabling the option for "use master password." That's not right, either.

Hi there. Running Windows 7, 32bit. I always run the most current version of Nightly. Last week sometime it started behaving strangely after updates. If an update has been downloaded and I close and restart Nightly, no application window will open. If I open Task Manager and look at the processes, there will be somewhere between 4 and 30 instances of firefox.exe running. They will cyclically open and close but there always at least 4 processes going which I think is baseline for e10 Nightly behavior. If I try to terminate the processes, I receive an error saying the process cannot be terminated. The only way out is to reboot the computer. Of course when I try to reboot, I get a message from Windows saying a background program is running that must be closed before I can restart (I think it is the typical Task Host process). In any case, when I reboot and open Nightly again, it starts up normally and has been updated. Since there are daily updates, this has been occurring daily and it is starting to get on my nerves! Strangely, no crash report is generated for this (if I go to about:crashes there are no new instances...). I did a refresh of Nightly and booted with all add-ons disabled which did not help. Thanks for any assistance, Dan

I've been visiting a site yesterday. All of a sudden I can't, no one else has this issue.

I've been visiting "9gag" since it came out as a site. From yesterday I can't get to it from my Firefox browser. I thought it was an issue with the site, but the App was fine. So I asked a bunch of friends if they have this issue, none of them had the same problem. What happens is that when I want to go into the site, it starts loading, but the page that I'm on or if I search it out from Google just blinks once and stays the same. The page never changes and nothing happens (no error, no loading icon, no other messages). Even from a private window it doesn't load up.
How can I set my new Brother printer as the default printer? I have to manually change it every time I print anything.

I tried going into the about:config, but the only entries under "print.print_" were only for Epson; Brother doesn't even show up. My new printer is a Brother, but a quick search turned up nothing with "brother" in it, even though it does show up as the non-default printer in the drop-down window. I want to have the Brother printer come up as the default printer, but can't find anyway to do it. I have checked the support pages and searched, but found nothing that seemed to apply. I'm still using Firefox 55.0.3 as the later versions don't support the "open tabs from last time" add-on and that is a great time-saver and organizer for me. I am using Windows 7. Thanks! Wolfgang P.s.: I have the Brother printer set up as the default in my Windows Control Panel. I also tried restarting the computer.
Updating Firefox to the latest version causes boot issues with my computer.

I am currently running Windows 7, and Firefox ver. 56.0, 32 bit. When I try and update Firefox, I updates to version 63.x.xx, and everything works fine. Then when I shutdown and start my computer later, or restart my computer, it boots to my profile name, but it logs me on as a guest. I have the only profile on the computer and I am an administrator. I basically have a bare minimum desktop and it will not let me open or change any files. It also won't let me save any files that I create. I found that I can fix my computer's boot issue, by performing a "system restore" to a point before I tried to update Firefox. Any suggestions, or is this a problem with my Windows 7 installation.

I don't understand when I've been on a public bus site for instance, to work out a map plan, now it blocks me from using a certain application on the site when i've been on this same transit site many times. Do I have to allow the site to be opened in the set up? This is when I could use the map the most but considerable time now's lost my getting to the place i would have liked to go in the short time given but i trusted hitting this site's bus schedules and now it's denying based on insecure connection (?)

I access an Invision Forum v4.3.5 and I am able to Resize an attached graphic in a Personal Message or in a Thread Post. That is until Today.
I can't resize the graphic in FF v64.02 So I went to my notebook where I still use FF v55.03. I had no problem editing the size of a GIF . I click once on the graphic where I get the ability to stretch the graphic size either larger or smaller.
So I tried to downgrade FF. I went from v64.0.2 to 64.0 with no difference. I then downgraded again to v60.0.2 but that was unstable and crashed FF on every launch
So I am back on FF v64.0.2 on my desktop. If I click on the graphic to the right, I can not "stretch" or "compress" its size. If I double-click on it I get a dialogue. I can decrease ( compress ) its size but I can not increase ( stretch ) its size past its default pixel size.
Therefore I did a test on a Virgin PC ( Win8.1/64 but tested using only Firefox Win32 installers )
I installed Firefox v56 and tested the resize capability and I incrementally upgraded and tested Firefox 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62 and v63 and all were able to be Resize a given graphic.
It was when I installed Firefox v64 that the ability to Resize a graphic failed.
I guess I never noticed it on my Desktop until Today when I updated it to v64.02 and tried it.
