I accidentally used wrong disk when downloading a big file. So my primary disk, where I'm running OS became 100% full. Then I removed this big file, checked that disk is not full anymore, and tried to download again, this time choosing the right disk, but now the Firefox internal file browser, where we open files, and select folder to download is broken, pointing wrong location when selecting disk/folders. I tried restarting OS, reinstalling firefox, but it's internal file browser is still broken. In Chrome it's ok, in system file explorer is ok, problem occur only with Firefox. I'm using Pop!_OS 22.04.
Is there a way I can reset this internal file browser to work properly again?

Since support is being discontinued for W7 Firefox, would someone please recommend the best version of Firefox for Windows 7? Security is not a concern, since I have reliable 3rd-Party security setup(s) for my Windows 7 systems.
Thanks!

Dear Mozilla:
It is SAD that the OS I have will no longer be supported due to exploits.
Considering the # of exploits, backdoors, poor coding, etc., in the later Windows OS versions - 1 would truly think that supporting the older and MUCH more secure Windows OS's would be wise.
Yes, they have "holes", but overall much fewer than current OS's.
Plus, the bad actors are very busy exploiting 10 & 11 and pretty much have ignored the prior versions.
Question... what if a major exploit is found that affects all OS's from 11 down to unsupported?
Will Mozilla make sure to supply a patch to the unsupported due to the danger of the new & serious "hole" found?
I vote... it would be wise to maintain a small contingency of legacy developers to help those who cannot buy new systems or flat out HATE the UI & UX of the 10 & 11.
Makes sense?

There was a hardware problem with my iMac; the Apple Store fixed it and in the process wiped the disk and reinstalled Ventura. I then restored from Time Machine. Most things work, but Firefox is one that doesn't. It will not open. If I click the Firefox icon in the Dock, it looks like it's going to open --- the icon moves to the right and bounces back --- (something similar happens if I click on the app in the Applications list), and then Firefox fails to open. No error message or anything. Firefox is still opens on my iPad and iPhone. Would it be of any use to reinstall Firefox? Would the new installation automatically find my Bookmarks and sync with the iPad and iPhone?

Hello,
I made a download 10 months ago, it failed OK.
But every other week that same old download keeps on restarting and failing.. its some kindof bug.
It then piles up with all failed downloads from the last year and they all try to load again and again automatically.
I tried to reinstall firefox and all but its a weird bug.
I have screenshots if needed.
Best regards
Alex
