Is there any way I can backup all extensions and extension data and import it into other profiles, or import it back after refreshing Firefox?

Within the past few days, I've noticed Firefox act buggy and then got the message “The bookmarks and history system will not be functional … ” so I deleted my profile like it said so here. I had backed up all my extension settings beforehand, but it would be more convenient to backup and import them all at once with one or a few clicks.

I had found this solution to enabling all extension in private mode months ago, and it involves entering code into the console. While it had worked back then, I'm having trouble getting it to work now. When I press CMD Shift J (I'm on Mac), it showed the 1st image (no >> prompt), while when I press it on another profile, it shows the prompt (like in the 2nd image).

Hi community, i have a problem with OneDrive and i want to troubleshoot some possibilities.

Outlook.com, Office.com and every other website loads in Firefox. But only the OneDrive website refuses to load. I tried it in Microsoft Edge and there it loads. The service is definitly up and running.

So i have the suggestion that the exented tracking protection might be the reason for OneDrive not loading.

How can i be sure if the tracking protection is the problem? Has OneDrive so many trackers? I mean it is Microsoft, of course it has. But how would this prevent the site from loading?

some firefox has kept my username and password for my bank.

i go to that page and they are both prefilled. I have tried to use the password manager to remove them but failed. I did find an entry and clicked to remove it but it still does it.

How can I get this out of the system? Pretty serious, eh?

And it is firefox, not cookies. I have a cookie manager and there's no cookies for the site.

Ever since today, firefox has been very slow with youtube, and I noticed it's been having a memory leak. Every time I load a video on there ram usage spikes by about 1 gb, then gradually increases over time (It never goes down). Also cpu usage when loading a page is really high (almost 100% usage). How do I fix this? I tried all the solutions google had to offer but nothing worked. Never had any problem like this for over the 10 years I've been using firefox

Yesterday I noticed that my saved passwords were not being retrieved from Firefox. I did do a Windows update before this happened. None of my passwords are able to be retrieved. My Firefox account says my sync is not working & that my account is disconnected. Which is weird bc I'm actually signed in to Firefox now - able to see my user name. What's going on here & how can I fix it? Thanks!

Firefox Sync Meltdown [Critical]

While booting up my laptop, a series of extremely unfortunate crashes occurred back to back and ended up wiping the entirety of my synced login passwords and saved email addresses for all websites. After jumping through the multiple different hoops of profile management, json file extension editing, attempting to use a file explorer to recover previous versions of the required json file, I am at the end of my rope and worse off than where I started. Everything is missing now; bookmarks, passwords, email addresses, everything but recent history in this very browsing session.

All of my json files with relevant information are filled to the brim with null values, nothing seems recoverable and it's honestly a little soul crushing to deal with this. I read online that the the Firefox Sync data is also stored server side, and after multiple attempts of sighing into my account on different devices, I cannot get that server side data to flow back into my browser. If there is anything that can be sent my way to get me back on track, please, please help me out here in recovering my information. This is horrible. I have nothing now.

WebGL2.0 doesn't allow flipping frame with blitFramebuffer()

Hi. So in desktop OpenGL it is totally valid to write the following in order to flip the frame vertically into dst buffer:

 glBlitFramebuffer(0, h, w, 0, 0, 0, w, h, GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, GL_NEAREST));

In WebGL if I do this:

gl.blitFramebuffer(0, h,w,0 , 0, 0, w, h, gl.COLOR_BUFFER_BIT, gl.NEAREST);

I am getting WebGL warning: blitFramebuffer: If the source is multisampled, then the source and dest regions must match exactly.

Similar error is reported in Chrome.

When I am looking into the related C++ code I can see this:

        if (dstX0 != srcX0 ||
           dstX1 != srcX1 ||
           dstY0 != srcY0 ||
           dstY1 != srcY1)
       {
           webgl->ErrorInvalidOperation("%s: If the source is multisampled, then the"
                                        " source and dest regions must match exactly.",
                                        funcName);
           return;
       }

I am not sure why this restriction has been imposed. GLES2/3 support this kind of dimensions setup with no errors. Can someone explain the reason behind this? And if it is a bug/missed functionality, where should it be reported?

Youtube live streams work fine on windows, but they don't work at all under Linux. Firefox is up to date on both my operating systems that I dual-boot. Getting an NS_BINDING_ABORTED error in the network console. I deleted my profile to be sure it wasn't due to any extensions or settings I've changed, and the problem remains. The Linux itself is also a fresh installation, and I had to download a tgz version and remove the snap to get the latest, because Ubuntu was stuck at 99.
