I started this thread because I believe it may be related to these problems/failures I'm having with exporting /importing Bookmarks, uploading images (on this site and elsewhere), which has also on occasion led to crashing my pc. Images from my previous thread auto-uploaded to this thread. I felt it might be better to separate the conversations until we get motre info.
Thru trial and error, it seems all these symptoms I will describe seem to be linked to my sessionstore.jsonlz4 file.
About six months ago I was having major problems with Firefox, navigation issues, broken toolbar buttons, blank toolbar button spots. I first tried to revert to a good working backup profile, which was fine until I did the file transfers from the problem profile to the backup, after which all the symptoms resurfaced in the backup profile. . I do what I always do by transferring certain files, but only those that make the transition without creating problems/conflicts; sessionstore.jsonlz4; places, cookies, etc.
I eventually chose to build a fresh profile, but the same problems occurred after the file transfer. Thru trial and error, I discovered that sessionstore.jsonlz4 was the root of the problems. I eventually went back and used the sessionstore.jsonlz4 from the backup file, but it was a real ordeal getting my session back up to date.
A couple weeks ago I started having problem here uploading images. I would select the file, but nothing would happen, and I was getting all these strange side effects.
But a few days later, Once again, I swapped out the profiles, these sorts of things started happening when I tired to export/import bookmarks
If I move the cursor over the top of the screen, a bit more appears
I'm writing in the backup profile now, because trying to upload from here or from Postimage, generates only these,
or various distortions, i.e., but no ability to go any further in the process
I didn't have any problem transferring the history, cookies, or bookmarks to this backup profile, but how do I go about fixing this without sacrificing the session. Is there a way to import only the session tabs without bringing in the corrupting elements?
BTW, still no "Preview Post" link on this page unless I submit this message first.

I have been using Firefox as my primary browser in Windows and Linux Mint for many years, and I have always found it to work when other browsers would not. Recently (last few months) functions in Ancestry.com stopped working. I thought that the problems were within the Ancestry system, and getting help within Ancestry was very difficult. I finally got a help chat session a short time ago and learned that everything in Ancestry should work using the Chrome browser. Very reluctantly, I loaded the Chrome browser on one of my Windows 11 computers, and suddenly all of the functions within Ancestry worked properly. I sincerely hope that FIrefox will soon resume being fully functional with Ancestry.com.

When trying to sign into a sweepstakes like HGTV Sweepstakes, the website will not show the "Fill-in the Blank" area to insert my email address. This happens in all the sweepstakes that I try to enter. If I use Microsoft Edge, the Fill-In Blank is there, but not when I use Firefox. It will work on my laptop in Firefox, but not on my desktop.

release 129.0.1 is not working right. This website: https://www.sofer.co.uk/alefbet is supposed to draw the Hebrew letters to show how to write them. It was working last night but is not working today. The page does not scroll down either. The website functions correctly in Chrome, so it is not a website issue. I'd prefer to use firefox for all my browsing rather than have to go to Chrome for this website. Thanks.

Hello!
I have tried every recommendation I have found to stop the very annoying picture in picture feature in YouTube: 1. Unchecking the Enable picture-in-picture video controls option on the Firefox settings 2. Typing about:config in the address bar and press Enter, searching for "media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enabled" and setting it to false.
When I am watching a video on a play list and I want to get out of it and I press the back arrow on the browser tab, I get the annoying pop PIP video. Is there a way to totally disable this PIP feature?
Thanks

Even though my laptop, tablet, phone and PC have the language settings set to English (GB) my Firefox across all platforms has changed from displaying English results to displaying results in French. I have gone through and changed all my language settings in and outside of the browser from English (Canada), to English (GB) to no avail. It still shows up in French. and I have had an French to English translator popping up when searching in Firefox. I can't see anywhere else to change the language. Everywhere I see, it says English (GB), but still displays French headings to the searchs. Any help will be great. Thanks.

I don't know who at firefox doesn't understand the point of fullscreen, but the address bar continues to pop up when the mouse reaches the top of the screen and there is no setting to turn this off. It is a comically incompetent choice. No, the chrome folder or extensions don't work. Might just switch back to chrome as this is a pattern with firefox's choices.

I chose to use Firefox a few months ago after starting to have problems with Chrome. At first it was great, no problems. Then just the other day, it showed it was doing a software update. OK, no big problem right. I thought. This morning I tried to go into a favorite web sit. It is were I get my main news from also, but this time I got a message showing that Cloudflare was blocking the channel, then said it was an error but to try back later. It just kept doing this. What is up with this. I won't accept this. I want this cloudflare disabled. You say it is your software for protecting your software. If I want my computer protected, I'll make the decision as to how it is protected. I want cloudflare removed or I'll find another web browser.
