When I try to go into my google account for any reason and a few other websites, it will say use passkey or try another way. I have done both several times and Firefox ALWAYS FREEZES and I have to force quit. I have reinstalled Firefox, gotten rid of all cookies and cache, gotten rid of extensions and everything I could do from the help website but nothing seems to work. I have also reinstalled Firefox but the same thing keeps happening. I need HELP!

Description: I need help with the "Firefox Multi-Account Containers" extension.

The extension is installed and shows as "enabled" in my Add-ons Manager. However, the colorful container icon does NOT appear on my toolbar, so I cannot access or use the extension at all.

What I have already tried (none worked):

· Dragging the extension icon from the puzzle menu to the toolbar · Right-clicking on the extension icon (inside the puzzle menu) to see if there is a "Pin to Toolbar" option — but the option does NOT appear at all · Restarting Firefox multiple times · Restarting my computer · Creating a new profile in about:profiles and testing the extension there — still no icon · Disabling and re-enabling the extension

The extension is installed and enabled, but without the toolbar icon, I cannot create containers or separate my Gmail accounts. I really need this feature.

I have read that this might be a bug in recent Firefox versions. Is there a known fix? Do I need to completely uninstall Firefox and reinstall it? If so, could you please guide me on how to do a clean uninstall (removing all profile folders and registry entries) and then install the latest version?

My system is Windows (older version, if that matters).

Thank you very much for any help!

Hyperlinks keep opening in new windows, not in the same/existing window where they were selected. Issue is not unique to Google Search results and occurring across multiple websites. At wits end trying to figure this one out. I have deselected the "Open links in tabs instead of new windows", turned off all extensions, and uninstalled & reinstalled Firefox. Issue is still occurring. Attached is image of my tab selections showing all turned off.

Hi, I opened Firefox to continue with my work, just to get greeted with a 'start a new profile' page. All my profiles, saved data, history, add-ons and customization, were discconected/removed. Even on my phone it logged me out from my account- logging back in doesnt retrieve my history from my previous sessions on my desktop device.

I tried logging in to my account, checking if theres an 'old firefox' folder on my device or anything like that, but it did not retrieve any of my old data.

Just to clarify, I have not played around with my settings, left or deleted anything, so I really dont understand why I've just came back to nothing.

Was wondering why this happened, how do I know this won't happen in the future, and if, when possible, how can i get all my data back?

Thanks

Several extensions were recently deleted without my input. Among them were Duck Duck Go Privacy Essentials, Keeper Password Manager, and Apple's iCloud Password autofill. I know there were others, but I cannot even recall which ones they were. Not sure if this happened after the most recent update or later, but it happened at some point in the last 24 hours given that today is 3-15-2026 12:30 pm PST. I only discovered this when a tab popped up in Firefox asking me to complete a survey as to why I uninstalled Duck Duck Go Privacy Essentials, which in fact I NEVER did. See attached pic. Nor did I uninstall any of the aforementioned, et. al. Thanks Mozilla for f'ing up my settings and overall browsing experience across all of my devices without my consent.

This must be a setting in Firefox somewhere relating to Tabs, so I will continue to investigate, but... I feel like I could always click an email link I had received and it would open my preferred browser, in my case Firefox Mac OS latest (both) on a last Intel Macbook Pro. Now, a link click opens Firefox but only to the last page I was on, and I again need to click the email link to get the new tab to open. Why/where/help please?!

seems to be working right -alert displays: <tr><td onclick("go2('_3')")>Chapter 1 – The Number Tiles</td></tr>

when I inspect element it shows <td onclick("go2('_3')")="">Chapter 1 – The Number Tiles</td>

where did the extra =" come from? when I tried other browsers still problems but inspect element was different hopefully this isn't a Windows 10 problem, but very wierd if it is

Ok, This is a bit of a question that seems to have many answers but none that have ever worked for me. I have in the past 12 months probably formatted my PC 4 times, and I have at least 12 profiles on Firefox nightly, not to mention the rest of the family. It's not really a problem to redo them every time, but it is just a painstaking simple process. If I could just backup the profile folder, copy it move it change it whatever, it would be nice and simple, even to transfer from one pc to another in the house, but every time I try, It fails. Copy the Userdata folder, copy the entire firefox folder, blah blah blah, never can I do it. I believe it has something to do with security that you can't just copy and the entire profile folder, but some way to backup the profiles exists surely? One that actually works. Cheers All!

Especially as I am running Firefox Dev as a direct comparison. I don't have any plugins on Firefox. Firefox Dev has uBlock Origin alone. Brave has a few plugins.
