Firefox Community Forum

After Firefox went haywire every time I tried to upload a file or add an attachment to an email, I eventually found a way to "restore default settings". That fixed ONE problem but immediately caused several new ones: The "File Edit History etc" toolbar has disappeared. How do I get it back? The colours and identifying icons in the drop-down tab menu on the right have also disappeared. How do I get them back? Nowhere to recover them in Settings and no answers to the questions from Mozilla.  :-(

I am starting to use the new utility which allows me to group tabs. But I would like to see only the name of the group and not the whole list. How can I collapse the list of tabs which belong to a group leaving only the group name shown. Then with a click I should be able to see the corresponding list of tabs if I need it. Saving and closing a group is not a solution, as the group disappears from the Sidebar. Thank you for your help. Best regards Ray Ballisti [edited] @bluewin.ch Switzerland

Multiple problems 1) bookmarks disappearing

  About 8 to 10 months ago a group of bookmarks disappeared from a bookmark file. I reloaded an exported HTML and no problems. 
 About a month ago Several groups of bookmarks disappeared over several days. A folder with say 20 bookmarks in would now have only 5. then none a day or two later. this happened across ALL but one of the default bookmark files and ones I created. I also noticed Firefox was not creating backup bookmark files so I removed Firefox, reloaded Firefox so everything was up to date and in the new I reloaded the older bookmarks HTML in the new installation.  
 Now it is happening again as of the 16th of May 2024 only this time Again no backup bookmark file are being created and Firefox is not creating manual backup file or HTLM Exports.
2)  I have gone though the Troubleshooting instructions and I am at a loss on what the issue is. I have used Firefox since the early 2000s and have never had this issue before but in the past year it has happen 3 times. 3) UNRELATED ISSUE - MAYBE- I found on the setting page at the top IS THIS NOTE -- Information Your browser is being managed by your organization.-- This is a personal computer. There is not an Organization. How do a get rid of this and does this mean someone else has access to my computer.

Although I have checked "Always Ask" to specify my download location, duplicates are still being saved in "Downloads". I recently "upgraded" to Windows 11 but do not know if it is connected. FF version 138.0.3 (64-bit). How can I prevent this please?

My desktop swiched off due to a circuit breaker trip, while busy I was playing an online game. I am disputing the websites activity logs they provide. I need log information with time stamps to prove to them that there was no active session from my browser.

The website admin staff are stating I continued my session after a certian time but I know for a fact I didnt. I can only find when the session started but cant find when it ended (When my power tripped). Please help

At some point in recent time I started encountering broken websites, and that "http" in their scripts seems like what's causing it. Full error text in the console: Content-Security-Policy: The page’s settings blocked an inline script (script-src-elem) from being executed because it violates the following directive: “script-src http: https:”

what I tried to do to fix this: 1. Disabling https-only mode in settings 2. Disabling all the enabled extensions 3. Tried disabling "enhanced tracking protection" for pages with the errors; and also tried switching tracking protection from strict to standard in the settings 4. Tried checking problematic pages in a new fresh Firefox profile, and they do work there seemingly fine. But I would like to fix the issue for my current profile and understand what's causing it.

Is there a way for me to get firefox to save bookmarks to the top of a folder? I'm currently trying to switch over from Opera GX but I've really gotten used to new bookmarks saving to the top of a folder, and with some particularly large folders it's much nicer to have it at the top instead of having to scroll all the way down. I did come across some sorting extensions, but didn't automatically put it at the top. or sorted all my bookmarks by date added. which is also not what i want, because i also manually move things around.

2025May16 sidebar - i have deselected 'show sidebar' in settings .. i do not want sidebar i do not like sidebar .. i continue to get 'use sidebar' prompt @ launch .. plse tell me how to stop that prompt

When I enable vertical tabs and set the sidebar to expand on hover, the toolbar icons behave inconsistently. In the collapsed state, the icons are arranged vertically, which is correct. However, as soon as the sidebar expands, they switch to a horizontal layout—making it difficult to click the tool I want. Is there any way to prevent this automatic rearrangement and keep the icons in a vertical column even when the sidebar is expanded?

'Show all bookmarks' is missing and I have tried the Ctrl+Alt+B option without success. I've already looked extensively on Firefox help with no success. What can I do to copy all of the bookmarks to a new computer? Thank you.

With the progressive rollout of tab groups having ended (I am assuming that because they are available by default in fresh installations), I would expect them to be available when I sync with my Firefox profile. However, when I sign in to the browser to sync all my settings, the option disappears. I am more interested in why the rollout never reached me than being told to enable tab groups in `about:options`. The profile switcher is also not showing up, but I am not sure if that is still in beta.

Liebes Firefox-Team, ungefähr Mitte letzte Woche habe ich im Firefox-Browser 2 Tab-Gruppen erstellt. Aber nachdem ich den Browser wieder geschlossen und mir anschließend die aktuellste Firefox-Version heruntergeladen habe, waren die 2 Tab-Gruppen urplötzlich verschwunden und unauffindbar.

Jetzt hoffe ich ganz stark, dass Ihr weiterhelfen und mir hier sagen könnt, wo bei Firefox meine 2 Tab-Gruppen abgeblieben sind.

HOFFNUNGSVOLLE Grüße Janina
