I had to erase my hard drive and reinstall everything. I want to restore my Firefox bookmarks and everything I have found says I need to restore my Profiles folder but I cannot find that folder anywhere. It is not in the Mozilla folders, all that is there is a folder called Extensions. How do I restore my bookmarks if there is no Profiles folders?

Hello. Google and Mozilla recently blocked the government certificate in Kazakhstan. And what about Kaspersky Lab? The Kaspersky products are already banned for use in the U.S. government.
There is also information that the Kaspersky laboratory is cooperating with special services. After all, Kaspersky himself and his colleagues are former employees of the KGB high school. This is not a secret or speculation, but well-known information.
I recently installed kaspersky internet security. Then I decided to see the certificate in many browsers and saw it https://imgur.com/a/o4B0HG0
It turns out Kaspersky decrypts the traffic. It automatically installs its certificate. Root certificate. https://support.kaspersky.ru/common/compatibility/14620 Now all my data can be compromised. What is it if not MITM?
Maybe you should block this certificate like Kazakhstan?

The FF set to a value of network.trr.mode=3, network.trr.bootstrapaddress=8.8.8.8 and netork.trr.uri=https://dns.google/dns-query I can resolution but if I change the dns resolver network.trr.bootstrapaddress=9.9.9.9 another DNS resolver it does not work.
Am I correct in thinking that the bootstrapaddress is to point to any DNS server capable of resolving the DOH domain? Because I found it only resolves for it own DOH.

I have been playing the Lumosity brain training games for years. But recently every time I play a game the browser stops working, just hangs up. I have to do control/delete to get out of the hang up. I have been working with Lumosity but they seem to think it is the browser plus flash that is causing the issue. Lumosity is transiting away from flash, but that won't be complete until sometime in 2020. In the meantime I would like to keep using the Lumosity site so I am requesting your help in resolving this browser hanging up issue. Lumosity is the only site that the browser stops working all of the time and just freezes up. All of my software is up to date. Thank you for looking into this issue and providing a solution.

I set up two Windows accounts on my Windows 10 and synced the passwords and settings in only one account. To my surprise, when I login in the second account, every login and password was there without the master password. This means that any one using that account can see my password.
I think this is a really serious security hole and Firefox should fix it as soon as possible.

The Bookmarks toolbar order of links as to how they appeared as I had on my Windows 10 computer Firefox changed a few days ago from what I had long had, and now when I try to put in back in order I want, it keeps changing as well. I have Firefox version 68.0.1 on the WIN 10 device. Only other thing I've done in past few days is set up a new iPad from my old iPad, and I have/had Firefox on the iPad too. Is that iOS device somehow taking over my WIN 10 Firefox version? Can I recover the order I had? Can I make the WIN 10 version the master?

Login to the New York Times is in a permanent loop. You login in the usual way, and the page loads without logging you in. It tries to sell me a subscription when I already have one. I have already cleared the cache and cookies and suffered having all of my websites broken by Firefox forcing us to re-login to everything on the web over and over because we have to go through the ritual of clearing cache and cookies over and over because Firefox is always malfunctioning. I have already permanently disabled "hardware acceleration" and have done all of these multiple times, numerous times. It's undoubtedly Firefox built in security devices that are causing this block. Chrome does not cause this, but there are other reasons not to use Chrome unless I have to, which is what I now have to do because of Firefox hyper-intrusive "security" software. If I could disable all the security bloat in Firefox, I would do so. It's just impossible. It does on month after month, year after year. We are prisoners of these device builders!

On my lap top yesterday and my desktop, Firefox has logged my off and blocked me to my New York Times subscription. Different machines, different locations, different broadband providers. Whatever I do Firefox prevents a login. I have no problems with either Edge or Chrome, but Firefox has long been my preferred browser. Now my preferred browser is preventing me from accessing a favored website. I contacted the NYT and they suggested it was Firefox problem. Help. Thank you
DOH potential security risk message

When trying DNS over https in in a neetwork that uses googles DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 I configured FF as follows set network.trr.mode=3 set network.trr.bootstarpaddress=8.8.8.8 set network.trr.uri=https://dns.google/dns-query
Then I went to https://1.1.1.1/help knowing full well that I am use googles DOH and not cloudflare expecting cloudflare web site to tell me I am not using there services with results being all negative.
Instead FF reported that "Warning potential security problem ahead". See enclosed If I am using Googles DOH values and I go to a cloudgflare site why would FF flag the site as a security risk? Keeping in mind FF appears to be working for other sites in the DOH configuration for Google with no visible problems.
Why Firefox sandbox is not active?

I have tried to change sandbox level in firefox in about:config, but it doesn´t matter what level I set, I still have access to system files from the browser "file://" page, so that means that my files are exposed and sandbox it´s not restricting anything, right?. How could I solve it?. If I execute firefox with firejail the program crashes. I tried with Tor and the sandbox is working, so is not a problem with my OS, could I use the same configuration that Tor uses in firefox with some trick?. I´m in Linux Manjaro 4.19

On Firefox (68.0.2) for Mac (OS 10.14.6): for the past month or so, most (but not all) Youtube videos give "If playback doesn’t begin shortly try restarting your device" error.
Videos play with no problem in my other browsers.
I have tried restarting in Safe Mode and the problem persists. Autoplayback is on. I also tried unchecking "Use hardware acceleration" in preferences, which had no effect (so I turned it back on). Clearing the cache has no effect.
Anyone have any thoughts?

I am running Firefox 68.0.2 on Mac OS Sierra 10.12. Every other application I have except Firefox (including another Mozilla-based app, Seamonkey) shows the "Print" button when you open the print dialog box (command-P). However, Firefox only shows a "Save" button, which requires you to save every file to a pdf before you can print it. This is a time and space consuming pain. How do I change it to show the Print button like the older versions did? (I have been all through the preferences and about:config files, but i can't seem to find the right thing to change.). Thanks!
