Hi, it looks like Firefox pushed an update on September 19, and after that, all my tabs were closed, I got logged out of all my accounts, and it opened a new blank Firefox window. Is there any way to recover my tabs and data?

Hello, I have ran into issues with the file upload window in firefox locking the program. I am not quite sure if I have tried uploading anything since the last update a few days ago, but it happens regardless of the website I use. It basically just freezes up as soon as it opens the file explorer window. I tried on chrome with no issues so it doesn't seem to be a windows thing as far as I can tell. I restarted my pc to see if that would help, but with no luck. I opened up task manager when this was happening to check what was going on and firefox seemed to be stuck using almost all the ram on my system 15.7 out of 16gb.

Anyone have this issue occurring in the last few days? Any thoughts on how to fix?

Thanks for any help

In settings, it says Your browser is being managed by your organization. I clicked it and it led me to the policies page. In there it says Policy Name- Certificates, Policy value- ImportEnterpriseRoots and then true. I neither work in an organisation, nor I have any antivirus in my computer. Why is this happening?

I know this probably sounds odd but I'm not imagining it. I like many people I live with many tabs open at once. Since the 143 update I come back to my computer the next morning and many of my tabs, specifically my gmail tab and many others will not work. (Oddly I've noticed some random tabs will still work, I have no idea why) I can close the tab and try to reopen gmail in a new tab and it just sits there trying to open but it will not. I've waited 20 minutes. Not until I close firefox and restore my last session will it again work properly. Is there a bug/glitch or is there some setting I need to adjust. I don't want to have to close my firefox everyday. Edge is not having this same issue, so I'm pretty sure it's not a problem with my specific machine. It's like Firefox just decides to quit when I go to bed. I know it sounds crazy.

Hello, when I first switched from google chrome to Firefox I could not figure out how to create one browser with two profiles like I had with chrome. So I went to about:profiles and created two separate browsers not realizing you all had an option to create two profiles under one browser. I finally figured out how to have to profiles under one browser by going here https://www.tech2geek.net/how-to-use-the-new-updated-profile-manager-in-firefox-2025/#google_vignette but I can not figure out how to sync the google chrome profile that I had previously to this new profile under the same browser. How do I sync this? I hit sync and nothing changed. I am signed in and I can not figure out how to get the browser profile to sync with this new profile under one browser. I really hate how Firefox named both of these Profiles because it is extremely hard to explain this situation.

For some unknown reason, you guys decided to remove the “home” button from the Firefox browser app for IOS. I have been using a home button on my browsers for over 30 years now and by removing it you have rendered the Firefox browser unusable to me. Why try to fix something that wasn’t broken? I shouldn’t have to open a new tab every single time I want to go to my home page! Who thought this was a good idea? Just so you know, I will most likely be looking for an alternative browser to replace Firefox if this is going to be a permanent thing.

Allow reordering of bottom toolbar icons on iOS mobile app

My iOS app just updated with a new ui for the mobile settings menu. It'll take me some time to get used to this, but I'm not opposed to it. However, it also changed the order of the icons in the bottom toolbar so that tabs view is the fifth icon rather than the fourth, and the menu icon has been switched vice-versa. This has caused my muscle memory of using the app to repeatedly tap the wrong icon, which has turned my usage of the app incredibly sloggish. If Mozilla wants to change the default ordering of these icons, I don't care that much, but surely it seems prudent to give the end user an option to change the order back to the previously established pattern? Having the menu icon in the bottom-right-most location on screen feels the most natural to me.

When my internet goes out and I check if it's back up by opening Firefox, if it's not back up then all the tabs from the previous session get lost if I close the browser. None of my other browsers do this; they all open with the previous session. This is a major issue, because I lose hours of work each time.

Hi all. I'm trying to add Instapaper's 'Send to Kindle Bookmarklet' to the Menu Bar of Firefox on Mac and it won't work.

I've followed Mozilla suggestions when bookmarklets fail to add (essentially it's about making sure the places.sqlite-wal file in the Profiles folder is unlocked -- which it now is), but nothing changes.

Following other articles online, I've discovered that Bookmarklets in general (ie not just this one) won't install, though I have cookies temporarily off, pop-ups temporarily unblocked, the specific site marked as an exception etc, but nothing works.

Because it's not just an Instapaper issue, I'm hoping someone here more tech-minded than me might know the solution.

Many thanks in anticipation.
