I am using the version 115.20.0esr (64-bit) and have noticed I have links in my bookmarks, that are either from other bookmark folders but I never copied them over, or I have new links that I never clicked to be saved? I have deleted those I found but some more keep popping up?

Hi there,

I've been using firefox as my main browser and I've created a account and using it all the time for syncing the settings, bookmarks, logins, extensions etc.

BUT due to some unwanted (really irritating) search suggestion were being shown to me by firefox, I had to uninstall firefox from my system.

    • Throughout the process, I'd kept syncing ON always!!

But when I installed firefox again and after loggedin, I'm syncing everything but this is restoring (syncing) very old data which doesn't have my latest bookmarks, extenstions & saved logins!!

How DO I get my all data???

URGENT PLEASE!! THANK YOU

Current on Firefox 117.0, but that has happened on several of the previous versions. Usually see the message after sitting overnight, but not always. Always on the same website Foxnews.com- no other website. I always have 7 tabs up and running 7 X 24. All I need to do is click on the FF reload and all is fine. Also, have stopped all addons to see if they were an issue. Some of my tabs use the tab reload addon, but not this Foxnews tab. Since it don't reload with an addon, I would think Foxnews must have a script doing something and that is my question? Is Foxnews doing something via a script? Since I am not reloading it, then it should just sit there and do nothing. It got the error screen when NoScripts was running, but I have some set to Trusted on that site. Also does it with no addons running. Image below, so far I haven't sent any data, don't even know if that picture wanting data comes from FF or somewhere else, it doesn't say Firefox or Mozilla anywhere. So I haven't really trusted that window wanting data as I don't know where it comes from. That is why I click on the Firefox's reload. Malwarebytes, Microsoft and Webroot finds no virus or Malware.

The iDrive backup app on my synology nas is accessed via a web browser over my local network using an ip address. It has a two step security setup. First to enter Synology credentials and then iDrive's. After entering the iDrive credentials, all I get is a spinning wheel. It is supposed to present a box to enter a validation code, sent to me by email (which I get). The box is never shown.

The process works in Chrome and Edge successfully. I contacted iDrive support and they told me that since it fails only in Firefox, that I should contact the browser vendor.

There is no error message.

I tried clearing my browser cache, restarting Firefox and my computer, none of which helped.

Please can you advise me?

Firefox 137.0.2 (64 bit). Windows 10 Home 22H2 Os Build 19045.5737.

Hello there,

So I have this issue where the tabs I left opened on my PC are not showing up, only the ones from 3 days ago (even though I used it yesterday)

Before, sync would, I assume, work automatically when Firefox is closed or something like that, which isn't the case anymore for me, for the last few days/weeks..

So I'm wondering, what can I do to make it work like before?

Thanks in advance!

My Firefox is v102, 64-bit, on W10 Enterprise. ESR channel. It keeps telling me I need to update.

Under HELP, it fails to download whatever it is trying to update. Even though I got v102, I tried the online installer (mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new). Thinking about it now, I did not try an offline installer.

I been searching online and tried this policies.json file (github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md#backgroundappupdate) with these entries:

{

 "policies": {
   "AppAutoUpdate": false
 }

} {

 "policies": {
   "BackgroundAppUpdate": false
 }

}

But still not help.

Is there anything else I can try? There seems to be no simple option to click to not check for updates temporarily.

Thank you.
