Hello everyone,

I've been experiencing an issue with my bookmarks lately. Although my bookmarks are still visible in the Bookmarks Manager, when I open a bookmarked page, the star icon in the upper right corner does not appear filled (indicating it's not saved).

This makes it difficult for me to know whether I've saved a page before or not. I haven't made any recent changes to my settings or browser version, so I'm not sure why this is happening.

Has anyone else encountered this issue, and is there a way to fix it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

How Ro Restore Deleted Firefox Nightly Profile Folder

When having restarted my computer and Firefox Nightly after a sudden power outage, all my tabs were gone. I need to restore them.

I went into the profile folder, but there was no session store file. Inside the backup sub folder i saw two large files, "previous.jsonlz4" and "restore.jsonlz4", and made a copy of both and placed them inside a new sub folder that I made, inside that profile folder.

An expert from the "Tech Support Guy" website ("Nader") told me, to open "about:support" and there to use the "Refresh" feature. I did this, but no tabs were restored. So I went into the profile folder again, just to see that it had disappeared and been replaced by a new profile folder! And therefore my two copies of the PREVIOS and RESTORE json files were gone, too, as they were inside a sub folder within that disappeared profile folder!

Now I need to know, URGENTLY, how to restore that folder and the files and sub folders within that profile folder. Thanks!

Hello I need to solve the following problem: My daughter can no longer access her Windows 11 PC -> profile issue. Can I save C:\...\profiles for her Firefox bookmarks, reset Windows, install FF, and copy back the profiles folder. Or import the bookmarks from profiles into the new FF?

Hello. I have used Firefox for a while, and i recently made a mistake and added a whole load of bookmarks. I have removed these bookmarks, and while on the page I'm able to re-bookmark it, and remove it once more. However, they still show up as "suggestions" in the url-bar while typing something close to the websites name. I've cleared my whole search history as well. These do not show up while logged out of my firefox account. They also show up on several different(logged in) devices. What can i do?

Hey

I have searched these forums for a solution, but to no avail, so I am now asking for help.

I do not know what upgrade it was for Firefox, but it was the very first one that switched Bookmarks to this new system on the Sidebar access panel system. Can someone tell me or help me with what number that was, and when that disaster happened to me? I lost a lot of critical bookmarks and have been trying since then myself to restore what was lost. I know I should have backed up, but who knew this was going to happen? Almost none of my bookmarks migrated over. I know it's been a while, but if anyone can help, please drop me a line.

I have most passwords stored in Firefox, and sync them between computers and my phone, and it works great. Recently I decided to move a certain few passwords elsewhere, and deleted them from Firefox on one computer. Days later, they still appear on most if not all of my other devices, even though sync doesn't report any errors. This is a bigger problem than it might appear at first glance: since I might have updated a password on another computer I can't choose just one that has the correct data and reinitialize syncing there.

Hi man, what have you done to firefox, have you lost your minds. Why did you remove the ability to share many at once tabs to clipboard - this was a very good functionality and now you've messed it up? Man, I don't like synchronization, and this option was awesome for me. Bring it back, dude.
