Firefox Community Forum

My most recent login, I found all my bookmarks were no longer there. I attempted to restore, from the Library screen, but there is no backup folders visible, nor is there any data in the column on the left. How do I resolve this problem?

My session crashed and got a message to say that Firefox had been updated...now on 158. However, none of my (many) tabs and pinned tabs opened. - 'Restore previous session' is greyed out - Session restore in Settings is configured that Firefox is my default browser, and 'Open previous tabs and windows' box is ticked. The last time Firefox updated, I spent hours going through History to find tabs and since some were older than 6 months, took me hours! Is this my only option...again! If it is, I may have to switch to a different browser. Thanks.

Home Page desktop bookmarks gone. Recent updates to both my deskyop (win 11) and laptop (win 10+) has erased all my desktop bookmarks. I tried numerous setting in Mozilla but still nothing. How do I get them back ?

Nach dem letzten update ist alles anders. Gespeicherte Ordner,, Lesezeichen, gesamten Erscheinungsbild ist weg bzw. nicht schön. Ich möchte meine alte Version wieder zurück.

My bookmarks disappeared and I don't have a restore option only an import from another browser but my bookmarks were saved on Mozilla Firebox prior to the recent upgrade of the Firefox browser.

Hello

This is a know old issue for me . That private session multi tab is gone. Nothing happened, I was these hour ago. I made changes setting to make work. Battery optimisations, defaultes to never close detete seassion. I am beyond angry fed. Please tell it's still there.

I dont want this profile feature at all it's a complete and total nuisance so I deleted the only profile it had for me but now everything but my bookmarks are gone and I need my settings restored. How do I completely disable this nuisance so I never have to see this annoying color bar in my application menu again? All my settings are destroyed now.

My Windows 10 PC died - I was able to recover the data on the hard drive using an enclosure.

Bought a new PC with Windows 11 preinstalled and want to restore my configuration

Things I want restored:

Extensions with their settings (particularly Noscript /uBlock custom filters)

Bookmarks with their icons

How can I achieve this ?

I never had sync set up so that’s not an option

Can I just copy the entire account over wholesale or at least the folders containing the extension info ?

I used a temp boot of Zorin to copy my files out of the old hard drive as Windows seemed to have difficulty ‘gaining permission’ to my old profile.

I want to keep a parallel install of Linux (Mint or Zorin) - how do I transfer my settings over there ?

Lastly would running a parallel Windows 10 install help me restore my settings if nothing else works ?

Thanks

Why doesn't firefox/mozilla realize senior citizens especially ones who didn't use a computer in their line of work and taught themselves how to use a computer 20 years ago and have bought four dell computers as close to the one they had before to keep from having to learn new things. Some of us have no friends, neighbors or family to help when there is a problem..I can usually figure out how to fix issues I have had with the computer Either the last update or the one before took away the #3 profile I had and left me with no downloads, missing bookmarks and extremely anxious and depressed. My computer is my lifeline because I don't have a working car. I use it to watch YouTube TV, answer questions, order my groceries online and keep me learning about everything that's going on in this world and with my health issues. After a hospitalization three months ago my mind and memory are still not back to where they used to be and with these new updates I'm unable to get my computer back to the way it used to be. Can someone please help this old lady try to fix my lifeline?

I can't implement the suggested solution

• Open your profile folder: Windows: C:\Users\<YourUser>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>\

because no Mozilla folder is being found

No Firefox folder is being found either.

My laptop did something funky upon booting up. It showed a "Desktop" and then a "Desktop 2", for what that's worth.

i accidentally uninstalled Firefox and lost my session, i have Tab Session Manager but it seems that the uninstallation also deleted the saved sessions in there...

can anyone please help?
