Firefox is my browser. I use Yahoo.com for my email and news. On articles with videos attached, I get the message below (see uploaded image). It is trying to get me to accept adds in order to make full use of Yahoo.com capabilities. I do not want these adds. I thought my add blocker would prevent this. I use "Ad Remover". This just started this week. Before I was able to view any video loaded on the Yahoo cite. Any suggestions?

Hello there.

Since last update i'm unable to browse websites like youtube, social media and all other websites with video content. Video often fails to load,the wholewebsite is not loading, freezes while played or while exiting full screen mode. All of these freezes the browser - the site cannot be refreshed, links does not work. The only way is to close the tab with the freezed page or kill the Firefox process in windows Task Manager. Refreshing, re-installing, deleting or using different profile don't work. Same with add-ons. Seems like the issue lies within the browser and it started to appear since last update.

After updating Firefox, all my bookmarks disappeared, the backup file is nearly empty, and they're not syncing from my account—is there any way to recover them?

I updated Firefox a few minutes ago and closed everything to let it finish. When I reopened it, all my bookmarks were gone. I checked the restore option in the Bookmarks menu, but only today's date was available, and clicking it did nothing. I found the bookmarkbackups folder in my profile directory, but there's only one file—859 bytes, which is basically empty. I'm signed into a Firefox account now, but my bookmarks aren't syncing from the server, which suggests they were never synced. Is there any way to recover them, or are they just gone?

In Windows 11, how do I add the Firefox icon to the extreme top left of its webpages?

When I switch tabs to Firefox, typically using Alt+Tab, I am often unsure at first which program I am in. I have searched Firefox settings, and googled extensively, and there seems to be no way to add the icon back. I believe that it was once there, but I am unsure of this.

Almost every other program places its icon on the top left of its pages. Surely it is possible to do the same in Firefox, which just has an empty space there.

(But I am wrong on the last point, because Edge, which I rarely use, also has no icon there. Surely Firefox does not want to share any problem that Edge has!)
