If I run Firefox 134.0.1 from the installation folder, fine, no problem. If I then attach it to the Windows 11 taskbar, when I launch it from the taskbar, it opens completely unconfigured.

This doesn't happen with other applications or browsers.

Thank you for appreciating my problem.

That's because your moving the exe file rather then creating a shortcut on the taskbar so it would open a completely new unconfigured setup. Did you check that before hand.

SOLVED Thank you very much, Mark, for your kindness and promptness. I apologize for the inconvenience. I should have been aware of that! In any case, it may be useful to others.

I usually pin the Firefox desktop shortcut to the Windows Taskbar. Does that method work for you?
