Firefox Community Forum

I was trying to Sort by Name, but hit Delete, because the right-click menu presentation shifted. No worries, Ctrl Z should undo on PC. Nope. Now I'm learning the only restore is through JSTOR/backup. I don't want to restore a previous state of operation. I want to un-Delete a folder. Is that a feature somewhere, somehow?

And secondly, can I force confirmation for all future folder deletions?

After updating to version 138.0.1 for PC today I lost many bookmarks from my saved bookmarks, and also cannot restore the last saved bookmarks folder through the Firefox "Manage bookmarks" menu. HELP!

Is it possible to restore firefox to a previous version to recover all my data? After update, all my firefox pages, tabs, bookmarks and history have vanished. Please help me recover or restore. Thank you!

What a mess! After 136.0.4 was installed today and I rebooted my laptop, Firefox acted as if it was an entirely new installation. No bookmarks, no saved tabs (Tab Session Mgr extn was completely erased) and all custom settings eliminated. Any ideas about how to reverse this?

I signed into and synced my Firefox acct, which returned my bookmarks (albeit with generic icons that don't identify the sites). But no tabs have returned. Any my synced tabs history does not show everything that was open.

I'm now spending way too much time relocating and recreating what I need. This is not the first time Firefox is causing me recent pain (see prior post) and I'm again toying with leaving Firefox, as I periodically do when the platform becomes unstable and unreliable.

I love all the folks at Mozilla, but this simply cannot happen.

I ran into a glitch in another program, and as part of trying to fix it I rebooted my computer. On doing so, I find that the VAST majority of the tabs I had open in my main browsing window have disappeared - some of them out of tab groups I'd created to avoid losing the tabs in question. Neither tab history nor browser history show the missing tabs.

What gives?! Is there any way to restore the window as I had it, say, yesterday?

I received a notice to refresh my Mozilla Firefox. I did but then all my Bookmarks disappeared. How can this be recovered? My email address is yamadasy@msn.com. Also do you have a 800 customer service number I can call to have someone take me through this to fix this problem

Help, My computer performed an automatic update, rebooting itself and all the history on Firefox has been lost all my open tabs have disappear. I followed other instructions to open the Profile Folder, but the only 2 files there are the ones created after the reboot. There are no previous files. Thanks, Juan

(I have no idea what topic I should have selected. If you read the text here, you can quickly see that I am flailing about.)

Please bear with me as I try to finish restoring Firefox after a spam attack that got around MalwareBytes, SuperAntispyware, and Windows Defender. I am missing a large collection of bookmarks, and until a day or ago, I had not the foggiest idea what it was called, as I had started it quite a long time ago and had not encountered any problems.

I knew that, whatever it was, was still on the computer as I had caught a glimpse or two of it. Two days ago, I found it: I clicked on the three-dot icon in the top right-hand corner of Firefox, selected Bookmarks, scrolled to the bottom of the list, and clicked on Manage Bookmarks, whereupon I found my compilation named Bookmarks Menu.

I had, more or less accidentally found, several days ago that there is supposed to be an icon specifically for that entry. I thought that I had kept a copy of what the icon looks like; sadly, I just saw that I had not so done.

However, I sort of recall what it looks like, with, I believe a star and something else, and it is supposed to be found in More tools, Customize toolbar icon collection. I looked there, with my miscreant note about the icon I need to restore the use of Bookmarks Menu; the icon was not there (and is not now, I just looked.) I don't even remember how I found the text about the icon, which had an image of it, alas.

If anyone can assist me, that would be, obviously, greatly appreciated.

Moved to different pc, logged into my account, all bookmarks gone. What is going on? The sync even synced with empty bookmarks, and I guess everything I bookmarked is gone now.

I updated my Firefox browser to the latest version (133.0.3) and lost all of my bookmarks (there were so many). This has never happened to me with previous Firefox updates. How do I get these bookmarks back? I am devastated right now and really want my bookmarks back. Please help.

UPDATE: I read several previous questions and support about recovering lost bookmarks prior to posting my question. None of them applied or worked in my situation. This latest update version 133.0.3 overwrote everything in my local Mozilla folder and my old profile did not seem to exist anywhere, but after much searching I did eventually finally find the last bookmark file (after selecting to view hidden files, searched for places.sqlite in my C drive) on my computer from before the update. Next step is to import them.

My previous post seems to have disappeared, so will try again. I am 85 years old and have been using Thunderbird fo over 15 years with out any problems. Afew days ago I tried to send an e-mail and didn't have any "Send" button. In trying fix, I some how deleted my contacts sidebar. I sill have my addresses book. I have tried everything to retrieve them but no luck. I tried removing Thunderbird and reinstall, but it comes back the same. I would appreciate an guidance in trying to resolve my problem. Thank You

please, tell me, how I can restore my bookmarks in Mozilla after reinstallation of Windows on my notebook, if I don't had account in Mozilla? I had account only in google, and there is no possibility now to import reserve copies.
