Hi, I unchecked something in my settings and I don't know what I did to cause when I right click to copy something there is no copy and a lot of the rest of the options are no longer there as well. Can you tell me what to do to repair this? It doesn't give me the option to take a screen shot either or I would show you what's left in that popup box. It only give me "Ask an AI chatbot" and the "translate".

Have a nice day, Tom

out of nowhere my firefox bookmarks no longer appear. I am getting the following msg

The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem.

In an attempt to fix this problem, I have done the following:

  • closed the browser and re-opened it
  • rebooted my computer
  • reinstalled my security software
  • uninstalled firefox
  • Reinstalled firefox

None of these steps have fixed the problem??????

Any ideas would be appreciated!

Bookmarks and History not functioning.

This is the message I get when I try to access my Bookmarks: "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem." I have already tried to find out from Microsoft if their latest reinstallation of Office Professional could have caused the problem. They say they have nothing to do with Firefox. How can I get my Bookmarks and History back?

I live in Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom. The full name of the UK is as follows "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland". When I select my country as UK, Firefox changes it to GB. Northern Irland is not in GB. Great Britain consists of England, Scotland and Wales.

I have really liked using the "refresh" button with my Firefox browser. The "refresh" button has disappeared from one of my two Dell PC's (I use Windows Eleven, and my Dell PC's have solid state drive). I know there are two other "help" buttons ("troubleshoot mode" and "clear startup cache"). The "refresh" button has really helped me to keep my Firefox browser working properly with my two Dell PC's. Thank you for any comments you might have about this.

Design Suggestion : Make a Clean Restart as Functional as a Restart After a Crash

On those somewhat rare (but not all that infrequent) occasions when Firefox locks up and hard crashes and all 6 or 7 of the windows that are open go up in a puff of virtual smoke, (each with their uniquely organized selections of tabs) - upon a restart of FF all of the windows return reliably.

But when a clean shutdown of the program is initiated only the "top" window or two returns, and as far as I've seen there is a limited number to the "Recently Closed Windows" available to recover from the History menu.

Clearly the state of the applications windows is preservable - why not recover all of them, similar to the "on startup pick up where I left off" setting for pages and tabs.

(Incidentally Adobes applications exhibit similar behavior - the system actually works better and can recover the entire "workspace settings" but only if the power is abruptly cut off, (and no tedious waiting for updates to complete as a bonus!))

I wrote yesterday but my post doesn't appear today. Today I got the message about bookmarks and history not functioning and eventually found something in Firefox that said it was probably due to "some security software." I have now gone into Windows settings and my security updates are done, but I have no idea what I'm supposed to do now. This is an extremely annoying and disruptive issue. I see that several other people are experiencing it, so it's interesting that the note next to their posts state that no one else is having the same problem. Can someone please help us all to get our bookmarks and history back?

I find it very inconvenient in a variety of ways.
