I can't figure out which topic to use for this but I can't submit it without one.

When I click on the star icon in the address bar the star icon is filled in, and existing bookmarks do show with the filled-in star icon and they work. But I no longer get a dropdown where I can assign a folder, edit, tag, or delete an existing bookmark, and the pages I've tried to bookmark don't show up in Recently Bookmarked so they haven't been added. I don't know if it has something to do with the toolbar?

Nothing I can find online helps. The places.sqlite file in my profile is not read-only, and I refreshed Firefox (stupidly, before I took a screenshot of the pinned shortcuts on my New Tabs page) and that made no difference. The only extension I use is UBlock Origin. Changing profiles did not help. This is on my personal laptop and no organization controls my settings.

I stay up to date on Windows 11 and Firefox updates. I do use a VPN but it never interfered with bookmarking functionality before. (I see Firefox offers a free one now but I've got a couple of years left on my paid subscription).

I asked the community but got no replies. (I did "reply" to add more information which no longer applies, and I can't seem to delete the "reply".)

Thanks in advance for any help!

I updated to TB151.0 and lost access to my Outlook e-mail and calendar. After re-loading OWL my e-mail returned. However, I am unable to re-link on a read/write/synchronize basis to my Outlook calendar. I have tried adding a new calendar in every way I can think of and nothing works. I am tired of fighting with TB over this and am about to dump it and set up my accounts on Outlook. Please help me give TB one more chance.

Edge overrides Firefox's default settings. Windows 11 Pro abuse

For the past week, I've been trying to set Firefox as my default browser on Windows 11 Pro (I've been using Firefox for years), but after restarting, the Edge browser reappears, even for PDFs (we use Adobe Acrobat) and Paint for TIFF and JPEG files! It's outrageous that Microsoft is forcing users to use Edge. This never happened to me with Windows 7 or Windows 10. I'm completely dissatisfied with Microsoft's policy of forcing users to use Edge! I've tried configuring regedit, gpedit, taskchd, etc., in a thousand different ways, and after restarting, the intrusive Edge returns! Is there any way to prevent this? Mozilla should fight this! It's unacceptable that we have to be tied to Microsoft's monopolistic whims!. Do you have any solution? Thank you very much!! Leonardo
