Running Linux Mint 22 on Dell desktop. On bootup, no bookmarks and message with link to restore them. Restarting computer sometimes works after multiple tries but often does not, currently on FF 138.0.3 but this problem has come up on several previous versions of Mint as well as FF. Now more frequent. No security or other software apps have been added or changed.

The last time I got the bookmarks to show I used the FF Save Bookmarks function to save them to a stick. That file shows on the stick as a .json file. Mozilla's choice, not mine. Manage Bookmarks in the hamburger menu generates a pop-up "Library" that will not access the .json file.

Started a couple days ago

Youtube works fine for everything, except when i try to watch a video, the rectangle where the video is supposed to be appears black during loading (normal) but then vanish.

checking the console i get a huge error that's just unreadable for me

it doesn't happen on edge, or in private navigation

turning every addon off doesn't fix the issue, and it does it even in "troubleshoot mode"

i haven't "refreshed" because i don't know what kind of data will be lost when i do that

I have been using Firefox for awhile now and something weird is happening. I can't close tabs by clicking on the 'x' on the tab. I also can't use the back arrow and the refresh button. I can right click and close tabs that way and the bookmark bar works. The problem seems confined to the top two bars. Thank you.

Looking for a way to find a certain tab when I have multiple windows open which have several tabs in each. Have looked through Mozilla support and find no reference to the Move & Resize and Full Screen Tile choices on the Window tab so don't know if either would help. Mac running Sequoia 15.2 and Firefox 138.0.3
