I used profile manager and copied my profile (C drive) to a different directory (D). Profile even has same name. And is same size. Yet all bookmarks and add ons are gone. They remain in original C drive profile and that works fine if I default to it. But if I make the D Drive profile the default it looks like a new profile with no existing bookmarks/add ons. Why doesn't this data move across to?

I have the answer, but it seems to be a recent problem that I found the answer to (modifying a seven-year-old Windows 7 answer): Firefox shortcut Properties> Compatibility> Run program as Administrator> Change high DPI settings> Override high-scaling DPI behavior (managed by application)
After this, movies are fullscreen without annoying taskbar.

I used Refresh and now realize my add-ons, extensions and theme have disappeared. There doesn't appear to be any way to add them back. I've followed the guidelines t\suggesting to copy from the Old Firefox Data folder into the current local folders but it made absolutely no difference. I can't use Firefox in this state. Is there some way to return to the version I had an hour ago.

After 72.0.2 I started to notice performance problems with my firefox. Symptoms are similiar to my multiprocess problems I had after it was added. I managed to avoid it for some time by limiting processes number to 1 (which was 4 in reality)
Long story short: when you open new tab firefox has to create new process which is somewhat correlated to your PC performance (however it hangs up even on 4800MHz i5 with nvme pci-e 3.0 x4 ssd so....). When this process is already created and you enter different website it is smooth - firefox does not have to create another process until you open NEW TAB or it reaches its limit (from 1 to 8 processes/tabs) - set via settings. If limit was set to more than 1 I had problems with hanging up for few seconds until I reached limit - so if it was set to 4 I opened 1 tab and 3 links I clicked (with new tabs) slowed firefox down for me, but 4th, 5th etc. were fine. So I set it to 1 permanently and problem disappeared - every tab opened as fast as before.
But now problem seems to have returned. I still have 1 in my settings but symptoms are pretty much the same (but there are only 4 processes). However browser is not hanging up - it seems like connection is. It does nothing - "waiting for xxxxxx" in lower left corner and then after 1-2s page actually starts to load. It is present on every website I visit, no matter how many tabs or windows I open.
So my question is - what did you break in this firefox version? Previously it was youtube, now it is all sites...

Hello! My Firefox tabs crash constantly since I got a new computer. I have tried all the suggestions I can find in the forums. I did try downloading Firefox for enterprise but I could not figure out how to get it up and running, it seemingly installed, but Firefox seems to be the same. My new (to me) computer is a MacBook Pro 13" mid 2012 if that has anything to do with it. I have Parallels installed on my computer for the first time, if that might have anything to do with it. I have not had the problem with Firefox crashing within the Virtual Machine, though. Here is the latest submitted crash report: bp-f70bd533-3d22-4cd6-9f39-498920200121 Thank you for any insights and help!

I used to be able to type the first few letters of an address, either from my bookmarks, such as acrostics.org, or another URL, such as cnn,com, and the address would appear in the address bar. Now I have to drop down the menu and select the correct one. How can I go back to the way Firefox used to work?
Thanks.
Firefox Quantum 68.4.2esr (64-bit) control-delete deletes span after whitespace

The following HTML is inside a text area div:
<wbr><span dir="ltr" class="code" data-id="3" data-ref="0" data-type="SC" data-isolated="false" draggable="false" data-text="span1" contenteditable="false">span1</span>a <span dir="ltr" class="code" data-id="0" data-ref="3" data-type="EC" data-isolated="false" draggable="false" data-text="span2" contenteditable="false">span2</span> b<span dir="ltr" class="code" data-id="2" data-ref="0" data-type="PH" data-isolated="true" draggable="false" data-text="span3" contenteditable="false">span3</span><wbr>
(The WBR elements shouldn't make a difference, but I need them in my test setup.)
Placing the cursor before the "a " and pressing control-delete causes not only the "a " to be deleted, but also span2 and the following space character. Similarly, placing it before "b" and pressing control-delete also deletes span3.
It is as if control-delete treated spans as whitespace, rather than as non-whitespace.

I have Firefox version is 72.0.1 (64bit) and I have all of the websites I have visited for this month, but if I look at November (Which I need) it only has 12 websites visited saved. I would have visited dozens if not hundreds and not in private tab, so I'm not sure where to find them.
This is really important to me as I have taken out insurance but recieved no documents through the post, no email and a payment has not gone through and I need to track this down! Thanks.
