My shortcuts keep disappearing from my home page when I turn my computer on. Sometimes it's fine, sometimes I have to spend a long time trying to find them. Sometimes I just have to restart Firefox. Sometimes I have to go into settings. Sometimes I can't work it out.

Has been happening for the past month or so.

My Firefox shortcuts keep disappearing: this is an almost daily occurrence. Sometimes they re-appear later without any intervention, sometimes they re-appear after a reboot. Right now, after rebooting and 'fixing' Firefox from Control Panel, they are still missing. I have 4 rows configured for both shortcuts and recent sites, and had 'pinned' about 20 shortcuts. Currently on Windows 10, soon to upgrade to Windows 11.

Can someone PLEASE tell me if there is a fix available for this (will it be resolved in Win 11?), or if there is a way to easily save and restore these backups when this problem occurs.

The ability to have 32 shortcuts is the motivating reason for my using Firefox over Chrome or Edge (which only allow 8), but if they keep disappearing like this I'm going to have to re-think my browser selection.

Thanks for any suggestions.

When I was manually closing tabs on my iOS 15, I accidentally deleted my Firefox homepage. The app is still there, but I can’t access the menu, settings, etc., so I don’t know where to go to recover my homepage. Please help. I can access it on my desktop but it isn’t syncing with my iPhone.

Subject: Feature Request: Home Screen Widget for Favorite Sites ​Dear Firefox Team, ​I am a regular user of your browser and would love to see a Home Screen Widget for Favorite Sites/Bookmarks. ​Having a dedicated widget to access my top sites directly from the home screen would make the browsing experience much faster and more convenient. ​Thank you for your great work! ​Best regards, [Your Name] Burhan Ali
