Problem with the toolbar and bookmarks in the browser

I am using Mozilla Firefox Developers Edition for Windows 11. Recently I have encountered a problem where my bookmarks are constantly disappearing from the panel and toolbar elements are changing places (like the arrows or the reload button).

I read the support and came across three articles about problems with this. The first two were xulstore and Places.sqlite files, which I deleted and followed the instructions in the article, reset the browser settings, but nothing happened. The third article was about the profile, I went in and saw that I had two profiles, which I deleted and created a new one, completely previously removed the browser from the device. But again, nothing happened.

I think this started when I started using the built-in Windows 11 workspace feature (multiple desktops, I opened two browsers at the same time). It was after this that my bookmarks and toolbar changed in the pre-login in the application.

I would appreciate help with this issue.

I miss being able to chose which language to translate to on a per-site basis AND the browser remember that setting. If you want to permanently translate to a specific language you have to change the preferred display language for all websites as I understand it. Actually it would suffice to be able to set a standard language to translate to, but independent of the preferred display language.

I know Firefox Translate is still Beta so perhaps this important enhancement is in the pipeline?

After an update, Firefox messed up my toolbar configuration. After resetting everything back to normal, just one thing doesn't want to stay where it's placed: the "new tab" button a.k.a. the "plus sign". I want the button to be to the right of my open tabs (screenshot no. 2) but after closing and opening Firefox again, the button simply jumps back to the left (screenshot no. 1). So I go to (Right Click) > "Customize Toolbar..." > (Drag the button to the right) and it works, only until I restart Firefox again. Is there anything I can do to make my changes stable?

(One more thing: there is this "List All Tabs" button, which can't be removed, how could I remove it?)

Firefox Version: Developer Edition; 132.0b3 (64-bit); aurora update channel

Periodically I open Friefox and all my cookies have been deleted. I go into settings to find "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" has been checked (NOT BY ME!) again. This is very annoying as I then have to log into all my websites and go through 2FA. This is annoying to the point that I am posting on this site for help. Next step is find a new browser that doesn't screw up my work-flow randomly for no reason.

The Support forum is full with people having this problem and it seems no one at Mozilla can even b.u.t.t in with something like "we are working on it" or "here is how you can fix it yourself, also for none nerds" or anything?? Hello Mozilla, are you still alive or should we move on to a browser that does not malfunction on such an important issue as copy and paste? P.S. no answer is an answer too Mozilla, we can safely assume you are now buried on boothill, right?

After the Dec 10 update to 133.0.3 (aarch64) on my MacBook Air macOS 15.1.1, all of the menu keystroke options are greyed out. Also, in Settings, Firefox is selected as the default browser, but the option is greyed out so that it is not possible to change. I've disabled all add-ons except my password program, tried troubleshooting mode, and restarted.

Firefox went through a pretty major change recently. i could see I had to change my toolbar customisation back to how I wanted it. However, I have about half a dozen add-ons controlled via icons on the browser, but all the icons are gone and I see no way to get them back.

I don't care about cookies Cookie Editor Disable Javascript Tab Auto Refresh uBlock Origin

Until the recent Firefox update I could switch these add-ons on or off whenever I wanted via icons on the menu toolbar. I now see no way to get these controls back.

In the previous version of Firefox I could install a multiple language keyboard layouts in the upper right row. I had to reset everything with a new HDD and Ubuntu 24, which comes with Firefox for Linux as well. Now I can't find how to install those shortcuts that I had before. I need to use Slovenian, Italian, Spanish, German and US keyboards (UK is standard with UK English as primary choice). Thank you for your help.

Shouldn't a "resize" mouse icon appear when I hover the mouse at the right edge of the search field in my toolbar? It doesn't appear anymore after I accidentally clicked on "Restore Defaults" in the bottom right corner in the "Customize Firefox" menu and then "Restore" again and restarted Firefox again. Is this a new Firefox bug? :/ I already tried in safe-mode too
