I am trying to remove the some default search engines from Firefox. I can remove them in settings yet if I type @ then a number of search engines I don't want including Bing Google and Amazon are still there. I think I have found the json that makes them visible:
resource://search-extensions/list.json
Which contains:
"default": {
"searchDefault": "Google",
"searchOrder": ["Google", "Bing"],
"visibleDefaultEngines": [
"google", "amazondotcom", "bing", "ddg", "ebay", "twitter", "wikipedia"
]
}
Is this file in my profile? Can it be edited to remove the @keyword searches. If not, is there another way to get rid of them?
FF v69.0 NOT displaying PUBLISHED DATE on any YouTube post

All videos posted to YouTube have a "PUBLISHED" date that appears in ALL BROWSERS. Since v 69 Firefox no longer displays that date anywhere on the Youtube page. There are dozens of queries about this in YouTube support and it is all about Firefox. All the other popular browsers continue to display the date the video was published. Obviously the v69 update broke something, because even a simple "View Page Source" on Youtube, done in Firefox, shows the published date IS THERE IN THE PAGE CODE. Please fix this ASAP.

Hi everyone,
on my Dell laptop I suddenly started getting a PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR a few days ago when trying to access websites like google, facebook, youtube etc.
Other websites like ebay, amazon or tripadvisor work. The problem also occurs with Chrome and IE.
I have checked date and time, run all troubleshooting programs, restarted router and laptop, cleared cache and cookies and deactivated the windows defender firewall. I have no other security software installed.
Now I am all out of ideas. Can anyone help?
Thanks Kim
I visit a number of sites where people, from time to time, link to specific tweets by various people. Currently these are blocked. How do I unblock this.

When I'm visiting a site, one of the other people will provide a link to a twitter comment by someone else - best example a twitter from the President. These likes don't show up at all on my screen. They used to until foxfire's last so-called upgrade. I've had advice to go to the drop down menu and do a number of things. Sooooo. Where is this drop down menu located? Please, it's frustrating getting only half the conversation.

Seems to have completely started on its own. I fixed the same issue last week with a proper uninstall and reinstall of Firefox, but this week the same issue has returned. Going back and forth between tabs is also quite slow. I am still running Windows 7 professional 64-bit. I currently run Firefox Quantum 69.0 (64-bit). The same is on my other Windows 7 and Windows 10 PCs and I do not have the same issue. IE and Google chrome on this PC also do not experience the same issue. I cannot pin this to any Windows update(s) or other software installation(s) or updates. How can I fix this and continue to have all the same tabs open up on my home startup without getting this frustrating delay as well as not getting the delays when going from tab to tab?

No issues when using another browser to upload an image. After completing a sync with MS OneDrive, my Firefox's File Upload folders are all empty despite my MS OneDrive being up-to-date. Every folder stills how the "still syncing" symbol, yet they there is no syncing going on at all. Why the incompatibility? Not happy with FF. Needs attention for a fix.

Which files needs to backup your Profile? Is it %AppData%\Roaming\Mozilla\ or %AppData%\Local\Mozilla\ ? Is there an add-on that does this? Lastly, can anyone write a script so when you exit Firefox, it automatically backs up your profile? Thank you in advance.

When I try to access several different websites, I often get those error messages or ones like it - not always, but most of the time. Sometimes restarting Firefox will cure the problem briefly but not always. If Outlook 2013 is open when I do this on Firefox, Outlook freezes, but the Firefox problem can arise when Outlook is closed.

Recently, after many years of using Yahoo Finance, the My Portfolio link does not work when I am signed in. I'm on a desktop with Windows 10. If I use the "search for a company" feature, it will go to that specific finance page, but several of the links on that page do not work either. Any ideas why I am encountering this?

Websites that I regularly visit appear in my topwebsites (I have two rows of six icons each). It would be convenient if there would be a keyboard shortcut to open a specific website, similar to e.g. Ctrl+3 to go to the third open tab. Can't find the answer on this forum or anywhere else, have tried some semi-random combinations with no success. For info: I am on version 60.9.0esr (32-bits).

I've researched and tried just about everything I can to get drop down menus to work on a certain site...turned off hardware acceleration, tried loading the site in safe mode without any add-ons or themes, disabled all content blocking for the site, deleted all cookies and cache, reinstalled flash, etc etc etc. Nothing works. I have verified that the site functions properly using other browsers so I'm at a dead end now. Any help would be appreciated.
A short statement from a longtime Mozila user. Seems Mozilla could create a Browser that "responds" more often than the current one.

I kept trying to select Restore Previous Session but Firefox option is grey and unable to access. I made a copy of the sessionstore-backups folder, then closed firefox, replaced the new sessionstore-backups folder, then restarted firefox and problem continued to persist. I noticed this morning when I started up Firefox that the amount of windows I normally have open for session restore doubled and where all blank. Can anyone help me restore previous session?
