Storage drive on my laptop got corrupted recently, So I got a new storage drive and installed windows on it. So I don't have any offline backup for my bookmarks. Is there any possibility that Firefox created any automatic cloud backup through which I can restore my bookmarks?

If not, how to setup automatic cloud backups for future.

Thank you

I have certain extensions that temporarily block my access to certain sites, including to my add-ons so I can't use it to disable the add-on. However, when I open firefox, I can easily access the "add-ons and themes" selection from the toolbar before the blocker takes effect, allowing me to access the add-ons page and disable the add-on before it blocks the site. Is there so way to hide or make it take longer to access this open? (Such as removing it from the tool bar)?

Hej This is written in Danish, as probably only Danes can relate to the problem.

Med FF kan jeg ikke længere gå på eBoks. Den returnere med "Ukendt fejl" efter password.

Med (gys) Edge kommer jeg ind.

Banken fungerer fint, så dedt er ikke MitID som sådan. Jeg anvender FF 110.0, 32 bit.

Og det hjælper ikke at rydde cache.

Er der en lille bug i den nye version af FF?

Firefox updated yestarday. I see these changes: extension are gone, theme settings were switched from Dark to Light, "Startup -> Open previous windows and tabs" option went from checked to unchecked. These things are still fine: bookmarks, saved passwords and history. Tried reverting to older Firefox version, but it didn't help so I installed the new one again. I then checked profiles in AppData folder and I see three of them. The problematic one I just described, the one that was automatically created when I tried to downgrade to previous Firefox version and the one which only contains empty "parent.lock" file. There is nothing useful in "Extensions" folders (first profile has addblock extension file which I just installed, second profile has langpack extension file). I don't particularly care about which specific extensions I used since I can just reinstall them when I need them again, but one of those extensions contained custom written scripts which were running on specific sites to help me with my work. Those scripts are what I really want to recover.

Like the title states - now have to scroll back down through all the bookmarks in a folder because it no longer holds its place. This is a great time waster.

Thought I would try to save some time by opening bookmarks in new tabs, but it then switches to the new tab immediately and I still have to scroll back through the same folder to open the next bookmark.

Is there a fix for this issue?

My scroll wheel no longer works in the Firefox browser. I'm certain that it isn't a mechanical issue because it works fine in any other application. I cannot scroll up or down using the wheel so I am forced to use the scrollbar which is very annoying.

Is there any way to get the scroll wheel working in Firefox again?

Starting today, for some reason when I access my bookmarks, I have to start from the very top of all my lists of bookmarks. In the past when I accessed a bookmark, and then a clicked on the bookmark tab to access ANOTHER bookmark, my bookmark list would show where I had left off from the previous bookmark within that list. Now when I access a another bookmark after I had accessed a previous bookmark, my bookmark list starts from the very top of it instead of where I was previously within that bookmark list. Being I have many bookmarks, it is a real pain to have to constantly scroll down from the top of my bookmark list every time to access another bookmark. This peculiar situation just started today. In the past this would NOT happen when I accessed my bookmarks. Can someone please explain and help me? Thank you.

So I just updated to version 110.0 of Firefox, and I noticed it's doing something odd. I've always had my browser set to ask me where I want to download something. But when I went to download a pdf from DrivethruRPG a few minutes ago, instead of asking me where I wanted to save it, it sent it automatically to my computer's download folder. However when I checked my settings, I did indeed have the box checked that says 'ask me where to save files'.

Anyone have a clue what the hell happened here?

EDIT: I should also note that the PDF wasn't just being downloaded automatically, but it was also being opened in a new tab on the browser. Again, not sure what happened there.
