Firefox Community Forum

Hey, So I just updated my Mozilla with the latest update and after I restarted my laptop all my bookmarks, history and favourites are gone. I didn't do any backups manually. It's few hundred important work-related links lost. What actually happened? Can I get them back? Please help.

Hi,

Yesterday I opened Firefox and found that it had completed a factory reset (without asking me) and I have lost all of my data and settings, particularly from plugins (Simple Tab Groups for example). I have a folder called Old Firefox Data on my desktop, and I have copied the files into the profiles folder from about:support, but I have still lost all my settings.

This is extremely frustrating and will take a lot of time to get everything back to how it was. Please let me know how to restore to my old state.

I reinstalled windows on my pc after syncing all my browser data (bookmarks etc) everything but some bookmarks, i have 4 folders and 2 of them had all that was in there and the other 2 where empty is it possible to get them back somehow?

Hello, I had 2 firefox applications open on my pc and on these 2 applications I had different separate tabs/sessions then if I closed one after the other. This caused the one that was closed first to not reopen when firefox was launched, only the other, is there any way to bring back the session that was closed first

Apparently, there was a Windows Update last night (Windows 10). Bookmarks disappeared on Firefox. Went to Manage Bookmarks tab. Went to Import and Backup. Then Restore. There's a prompt to Choose File, but nothing appears. Also, on the left side of the Library window it is blank. On a support page, it showed some sort of list of bookmarks. Nothing like that when I pull it up.

somehow i lost all my bookmarks all it shows me in the toolbar is manage bookmarks i go to that click on history says empty where did they go and how do i get them back

I managed to find my Backup-files in my Mozilla-files, but upon copying it i only got my closed Tabs back and not my closed Tab-Groups. I lost like months worth of Tabs and dont know how to restore them.

Hello . 2 maybe 3 days ago when i went to use Firefox to check my email etc there was an update available.

I did the usual thing and accepted the update , that id seam to go as normal

However since that update all of my short cuts to my save/favourite site as now disappeared completely , now even any blank icons ??

Your advice please.

Tell me how to get all my bookmarks to appear again after they recently disappeared. When I got the bookmarks back in the toolbar only half of them show up. What happened to the bookmark icon on my toolbar? Microsoft edge still has my bookmarks easily available!

Firefox quit working on my bench window 's 10 computer. I finally had to uninstall Firefox. I then installed a new version of Firefox. Question: did all my saved website locations that I had on original Firefox version get wiped out too? If not, how can I locate them and bring them up again.
