Dear Firefox Team,

I am using Firefox on my computer and have encountered a few issues:

1. When I delete all the website shortcuts, I am unable to add new website shortcuts. There is no option available to add them back.


2. When I use the "Unpin" option, the shortcut gets deleted completely, instead of just being unpinned. Ideally, the shortcut should remain available after unpinning.


I kindly request you to address these issues in an upcoming update so that users can have a smoother browsing experience.

Thank you.

Customization:

I want to change the Microsoft desktop icons on shortcuts to a number of internet URLs. Unlike with other shortcuts, this is not possible with Firefox. Too many of the same icon are confusing. Seems to me it would be a simple and useful option.

The RESTORE SESSIONS option is not showing under HISTORY. My computer performed a scheduled reboot before I could closed my windows but once I reopened the FIREFOX browser I could not find the RESTORE SESSIONS option so I could get my closed browser windows again.

I was working on my computer when I accidentally clicked out of my tab that had all my pinned windows on it. But then I accidentally started a new tab and deleted it. So now when I try to restore previous session it goes to the tab I just deleted and not the one with all my pins. Is there a way I can get all my pinned tabs back?

I knew I shouldn't have did the 133 install.... I did a hard start up and wouldn't you know it, all my tabs are gone.... Gone where? And Why? Searching says that I should go to "session store-backups folder"

why in the hell should anyone have to go anywhere to do there own repair when the new updates should be working.....

There use to be within SETTINGS a click/link to restore previous tabs...Who's responsible for dropping that? I'm using 135 Version, and I knew I shouldn't have done the update, damn....I've got enough problems with Win 10 and Office and I don't need this aggravation.... Anyone who how to resolve this problem, and if so thanks!

Years ago i had an issue with this useless browser. I had the setting to start where i was left of, so the taps should reopen as they were but every time it was starting from the beginning also with different windows than what i choose from settings. i have deleted the browser and now i have downloaded it again but i face the same issue. You cannot talk with a real agent so this is the worst browser ever. I am only try to use it because i have to, otherwise i would NEVER EVER use it again after all this issues. As i cannot get help from Firefox as they don't even have support team... Can anyone please help me with that. Thank you

No search history is covered in the settings. Used to be able to be able to check HISTORY in settings but it always is empty. Something must have changed with the updates cause this has been going on for several months now. Appears you've done away with the History feature. Can find no help in your settings concerning how to restore history. This was a useful feature and Im swiching to Google which I despise but at least they still offer this feature I like.

Hello, I've been using Firefox as my main browser for work for a while and I've always been happy with it. However, a recent update (which happened a few days ago) seems to have messed up the UI when it comes to homepage shortcuts. They became much smaller and narrower, while the font seemingly became larger. Now only a few letters fit in the descriptions of every shortcut, which makes it frustratingly difficult to identify them. Please fix this! I've included a screenshot of what my homepage looks now at 100% zoom and with minimum font size 9 selected. There's so much unused space to the sides, while the shortcuts text gets cut after only a few symbols. Increasing the zoom doesn't help.

Hello Mozilla,

I am about to trash Firefox ... an app that I have used for years, but in the past few weeks it has become an item of frustration.

I have the lastest version which in itself works great but recently cannot remember settings from session to session. I have reviewed comments on the subject but cannot find a solution.

Help please ... or it will be trashed within the week.

I have always used the option to restore previous tabs on startup. This stopped working a few days ago. After digging into it a bit I discovered that using the ctrl+shfit+q command is the only way to shut down firefox and get my previous session restored after.

I have changed no settings and afaik nothing else has changed. This is wildly inconvenient when just the other day I could close it however I wished and come back the next day to all of my tabs without having to dig it out of the history of closed windows.

Why has this changed and is there any way to restore the previous functionality?
