After I restarted my laptop (Mac OS 10.15.7, Firefox 109), Firefox suddenly refused to open, saying, "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible."
I read the "How to run Firefox when your profile is missing or inaccessible" page. It implied that I had moved or deleted profiles--I had not. I hadn't even been aware that Firefox had profiles.
I followed the instructions and found my Firefox profiles folder, and was confused to find 15 separate folders in it. I was unclear whether they were profiles or something else. They have names like "2sb6poj9.default" or "gya9gghh.default-release". Most of them contain something called "times.json" but one of them has a whole bunch of stuff in there, so maybe it's the real profile?
I also followed some other instructions and was able to bring up what another website called the old Firefox Profile Manager. The space where it should be showing profiles was, unsurprisingly, empty. I tried creating a new profile and it let me but then told me it hadn't saved it, and the space remained blank. However, I went back to the actual profiles folder to check out of curiosity, and the new profile was there. So creating new profiles is clearly not the answer, because it will just refuse to recognize them too.
I also tried opening Firefox in troubleshooting mode by holding down option and clicking the icon--it didn't work. However, I just checked the Profiles folder after another attempt and even making this attempt seems to create a new folder! Is that normal?
I have no idea what to do at this point.

I've been using Firefox for ages, and a month or two ago I began having BSODs on Win 10, while using Firefox. I tried removing add-ons, then clean install, after that Firefox crashes immediately on startup. After changing Browsers to Edge, my BSODs stopped. I'd prefer changing browsers back if possible. My Firefox version is 109.

I had to add Javascript because one of my accounts need Javascript to open. After installing Javascript and allowing for all to be 'true', I still get this message when I try to open a 'show blocked content' in my email.
"The address wasn’t understood
Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (javascript) isn’t associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.
You might need to install other software to open this address."
I never had any problem before installing Javascript. Thanks for any solutions.

You used to be able to "Paste and Match Style" by either right-clicking and selecting "Paste and Match Style" or by pressing cmd+shift+v. This seems to have gone away in recent versions. I don't use it too often, so I'm not 100% sure when this change was made, but it is not there in the latest version. This is essentially required when pasting from certain apps into a rich text editor on a website. OneNote, for example, requires this. Now if I want to copy something from OneNote into a rich text editor (like a GitHub issue or Stackoverflow answer) in Firefox, I have to first paste it into a text editor and then copy again to paste it in the browser.
I'm attaching two screenshots one of the context menu when pasting into the body of a GitHub issue in Firefox from OneNote and another of the context menu while doing the same thing in Chrome.
Is this expected? It seems odd to remove the feature when it makes working between other widely-used apps difficult.

Recently Firefox is randomly closing automatically after downloading a file from Yahoo business mail. This happens only with Yahoo business mail and not with other websites.

Hallo,
is it possible to automatically perform downloads in the library one after the other?
I have about 30 or 40 downloads in the list (videos), 2 to 5 GB in size, which of course take time to download. I have to start every single download individually and sit next to it.
Although I have a fast line (230 MBit per second), it still takes a few minutes for each file.
Is it possible that firefox or an addon is monitoring this list and after completing the first one downloads the next one and then gradually all the other starts?
Thanks
Roland

Yo guys what's up! Been having problems with Firefox for several months now, restarts make no difference. Getting huge CPU drain if I have any Twitch tab running. Above screenshot is in troubleshooting mode (all my addons disabled) and a single twitch tab open. It makes my whole system sluggish especially if I happen to have something a little demanding in addition to the stream open. Chrome does NOT do this at all, much more balanced drain.
Specs:
HP pavilion laptop 16 gb ram core i7 chip bottom of the barrel nvidia mx250 GPU
The other screenshot is a comparison to Chrome. Both have a SINGLE tab open with a twitch stream playing. Firefox is using almost quadruple the resources, AND its in troubleshooting mode.
Hope you guys can help me out, been a long time Firefox user since I was a kid and really don't want to switch browsers.

Hello Fire Fox,
I am trying to access a personal account through a client portal & every time I try I get his error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR.
I have cleared my cache & every other trouble shooting option available to me. I need to access this client portal asap.
My HP computer is old 2014/15 & is running on Windows 7, does that have anything to do with my issue?
I have tried accessing this client portal on my new smartphone, newer Samsung tablet as well as another newer computer & I keep getting the same message.
Is it the website or my device?
Any advice is greatly appreciated, thank you.
