My PC crashed and then upon opening up firefox it forced me to update firefox. Afterwards all windows and tabs disappeared but my browing history is still there. I tried the in-browser restoration but it is greyed out. I tried the session store backup profile data but has no 'previous' or 'back up' files, only 'restore' files that are empty and restore to no tabs or windows. What other ways are possible? It's weird my browsing history anf bookmarks weren't deleted at the same time.

Hi, I've accidentally created a new profile and I totally didn't know what was happening as I've had this internet browser setup for years and didn't even remember creating a profile. That's why I ended up deleting all profiles thinking that's how to get things back to how they were but now everything is gone, years worth of saved bookmarks, passwords etc. It only happened recently and I have not restarted my laptop, not emptied the bin folder etc. Is there any way to recover my profile? I'm on a Mac.

Every few days, when I start Firefox, my bookmarks load, but they are non-functional, and the logos to the left of each bookmark name are missing. I can restore previous days sessions, but I lose all of my saved log-ins to frequently visited sites. Why is this happening?

Every time I go into firefox there seems to be another update to download. I conform to ensure I'm up to date. The latest has changed my display to a basic display. All my bookmarks are gone. I cannot access the back up file on my W11 computer. I have a new android phone and I installed firefox on that, but I have yet to use the application as a browser, on that phone. I tried to recover from the phone, but it does not give me the options to select to follow the steps firefox says I should take. It does not allow me to scan the QR code. I desperately need my bookmarks. If I go to the help, obviously others have the same problem. I see the questions but no answers, I am signed in. I have been trying now for 2 hours. Please help. Jill

Why does Firefox do this? Its not the first time this has happened to me, but now I'm lost.

After several windows problems, I did a clean install with forgetting to sync or backup on my profile and lost a good bit of my bookmarks. However, I managed to retrieve some files, but they seem corrupted and after going through forums and several researches, I am unable to use them. I tried to look at the files and some of them turned to chinese and others have strange symbols in them. Thanks lovely people!
