Firefox Community Forum

I've been using what I gather is an "older" profiles system via about:profiles.

Now if I:

1. go to about:profiles and open my second profile in another window, 2. close second window and about:profiles page, 3. open about:profiles again in first window,

I get "Another copy of Firefox has made changes to profiles. You must restart Firefox before making more changes."

This happens every single time, even though I've made zero changes to profiles, and is extremely annoying.

Can/should I migrate my profiles to the new profile manager? How to do this?

Hello. I'm having trouble with my Bookmarks Menu. All it shows is my recent Bookmarks. When I click on manage bookmarks. It shows the folders that are supposed to be in the Bookmarks Menu. And I can see the Bookmarks I have added to those folders. But none of it shows up in the Bookmarks tab in my Firefox browser menu. It just says recent bookmarks at the top. And of course shows my recent Bookmarks. Any suggestions on how I can get it to show my folders?

Recently, Firefox has been slow and crashes regularly. I try to sync tabs but after it crashes and I reopen it goes back to a much older save and lose tabs I've recently opened or sometime after a crash and reopen it tries to open a window with no tabs and I lose all my tabs

I wrote yesterday but my post doesn't appear today. Today I got the message about bookmarks and history not functioning and eventually found something in Firefox that said it was probably due to "some security software." I have now gone into Windows settings and my security updates are done, but I have no idea what I'm supposed to do now. This is an extremely annoying and disruptive issue. I see that several other people are experiencing it, so it's interesting that the note next to their posts state that no one else is having the same problem. Can someone please help us all to get our bookmarks and history back?

I need to restore my profile on this computer. my other one failed...I need my bookmarks and passwords to websites restored. I have a account recovery key. I can try to log in, but I dont know if I have my password correct

I don't know if this is the proper topic, but I'm not sure what to call it. For the longest time I've had an issue with the settings being reset every time I open the browser - all my add-ons are off, all my configurations return to the original state, every single time. I have to manually turn them on all over again every time. Does anybody else has the same issue? Can it be solved somehow? Do I need to redownload Firefox or something?

I can't find the email autofill settings. There's incomplete or erroneous selections in the drop down when using autofill on web forms and I want to clean it up. Searches for instructions keep showing this: "Settings > Privacy & Security > Forms and Autofill", but there is no Forms and Autofill section. I've gone through the other settings, Addresses, Password, Payment and other options under Privacy & Security but can't find email management settings. I bought an HP Omnidesk a month ago with windows 11 home. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I can not access my att.net account. Do I have a setting set incorrectly. I have to go to Microsoft Edge in order to login. When I contacted ATT via phone they said I had to use Microsoft Edge to login. Can you advise me how to correct the situation. I don't use Edge for any other reason. Thanks

Hi, I have Mozilla Firefox for Windows. How do I do if I want to delete cookies from the past week? The clear history option only seems to have last hour, last two hours, last four hours, since midnight and "All history". I have a website that doesn't work that I suspect doesn't work due to a cookie issue (as it is a website that I have visited with other browsers and whenever I get the behaviour I just clear the cookies from the past visit and it starts working). I therefore need to remove cookies from the past week (or some other time period that I can specify myself), because only since midnight won't do and I do not want to remove all cookies since I got Firefox. Selectively removing cookies from one specific site is not an option etiher, unless I can remove them from the past week, as I don't want to remove older cookies from that site.

Hello,

Recently, (past month or so) I have had difficulty opening Firefox on my PC. Found suggestion of renaming the .exe which did work, but now it will not open AT ALL. Uninstalled, and re-installed. nothing. Renamed .exe. Nothing. It will OPEN as admin, but cannot access any settings or browse. I am at a loss, and really do not want to go back to Chrome.

Previously attempted uninstalling ESET antivirus and Defender, and still would not open.

Thank you!

I've followed all the steps for updating Firefox on Linux, but every extension prompts me to update when I go to add them. How do I know when Firefox is really updated? I access Firefox through Linux on a Chromebook, in case that helps.
