I need a: archive(store)/underachieve(restore} one Firefox "window of tabs" function

WHY?: I use the "Firefox program" itself, as a "High Level Logic Function" (i.e. a TOOL!).

THIS IS HOW: I may be researching up to 50/100, subjects/topics/interests, concurrently!

I use one Firefox window per subject. Each of the "Subject Windows", may contain 20 to 50 tabs, that are relevant to the subject being queried, until subject has been answered/resolved/placated.

PROGRAM DESIGN (software specification ... chortle!):

1) Each archived "window of tabs", would l can given A subject name, and appear in a list archived windows, to be restored, deleted, update/changed (with tab changes), shared with collages, coworker, even sent in a email!!

2) Your "History" function already has a last closed windows, last closed tabs, SO IT SHOULD NOT TAKE GREAT SOFTWARE ENGINEERING EFFORT ...

3) "Buckle your shoe ..."

PERKS: Besides may my insignificant needs, a "archive(store)/underachieve(restore} one Firefox "window of tabs" function", would let foxfire execute normally, with out bogging the whole Microsoft operation system down to a crawl, or "go catatonic"!

Of course, this not fault of Firefox! Fox example, I just installed "Windows 11 Pro". When I looked under the hood, I found that NONE of the window error reporting systems could log data, because, the "Windows 11 Pro" operating system, is unable the find "C:\",the only drive in my laptop.

Left hand ... Right hand ... the list of atrocities when on! I just had a new desktop folder, "Microsoft's Hospital for the Criminally INSANE", and dump'd the "bad news" there.

Some other related, Firefox execution problems:

WHEN I HAVE 20ish windows open, with 1, 10, 20, tabs per window, the system crashes, like clock work!!

Further I constantly it the "Firefox  ---- is not responding" frozen window announcement!

Concurrently, everything is also semi-frozen too.

I summary, PLEASE made the "archive(store)/underachieve(restore} one Firefox "window of tabs" function" a reality!!!

If you will, I will come up with a name for the function, that intuitive, yet is catchy, that it will shine like a small jewel in the Firefox panoply ...

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME,

P.S I want NOTHING for the idea, only the joy on using it! Later tonight, I will be installing a new printer with it's device drivers, and application programs.

AT WITCH POINT, WILL HAVE TO CLOSE FIREFOX,

 AND LOOSE 25 PLUS OPEN "FIREFOX WINDOWS",  
WITH 100'S OF  RESEARCH DATUM TABS!!!
ABOUT 6,TO 8  MONTHS OF WORK ..

And yeah, there have always been the bookmark systems, going back to the "Hyper Links" in DOS (which sooner, or later, GRENADE'D the hard drive).

Bookmarks are for warehouse, basement archive,

But the: "Firefox data amphitheater";

             "Firefox data auditorium"; 

              archive(store)/underachieve(restore} one Firefox "window of tabs" function

            "FIREFOX WINDOWS""Subject Windows" ...
           What ever you name it
           It is the easiest, direct way of researching multiple subjects, concurrently, and in your face instantly ..

I have used FIREFOX for many years and have account. Right now I am located in France but normally based in US. I have tried multiple times to sign up to FIREFOX / MOZILLA VPN but when I reach the pay page and enter credit card details it will not let me pay. I have tried multiple credit cards both American and European and all valid cards but the pay button simply won/t turn blue and allow the final step. Do you have any suggestions ? Thank you very much.

Everyday spam emails arrive in both Inbox and in Junk. But some wanted emails do not arrive. Truist bank sends a daily update for our account which did arrive in the past but hasn't in weeks? Truist website shows they had sent it daily.

I recently had to do a fresh reinstall of my Windows OS and was in the process of reinstalling and logging back into my Firefox browser and account. I quickly found out that I could not remember my password for the account. After trying multiple potential passwords, I was not able to find the correct one and resorted to password reset.

I reset my account and now lost all the bookmarks that were saved to the account. The odd thing is that I still have my bookmarks available on my mobile firefox browser, under Bookmarks -> Desktop Bookmarks -> Bookmarks Toolbar.

Is there any way to bring back my previous bookmarks the way they were before the Windows OS reinstall? Especially given that my mobile Firefox still retains those bookmarks?

Thank you.

About every month or so Firefox decides to delete my login info and i have to relog everywhere again.

While this is not a critical issue, its a very annoying one.

My cookie settings are on standard, and the "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" square is unticked. I use Dashlane for my passwords but ive used it for a long time before on mozilla and other browsers and i've never had issues with it.

I am blocked from my account on PJMedia. PJ says the problem seems to be with Firefox since I can get in using Chrome. This is the message the mail system returns: Undeliverable: Delivery Status Notification (Failure) Mail Delivery Subsystem <mailer-daemon@googlemail.com> You Message blocked Your message to pjmediavip@townhallmedia.com has been blocked. See technical details below for more information. The response was:

Message bounced due to organizational settings.

Any suggestions? PJ seems unable to resolve the issue.

Everytime I try to send a politically sensitive email. I get disconnected from my server and my email is disabled. I am running PC Matic malware protection, a VPN. It doesn't matter. Big Brother is always looking over my shoulder, suppressing everything that they deem is not in line with the governments agenda. I have been shut out of my browser on occasion, so I can't get to my banking login. They have scrambled and deleted certain contacts on my contact list. I have changed my email, passwords, ISP, computer now using Windows10, upgraded everything but still cannot block this monitoring system. If I write a letter to my MPP my computer noticeably slows down and just locks up, they change my port settings, etc so I can not send it. Whatever monitoring program walks right past my VPN, kicks my PC Matic aside and simply locks me out, I have been to our local police station, the RCMP. they say the government can do as they please and I have no say!!!! This is a profound violation of our Charter of Rights. How can I find out who is at the root of this and how do I stop it? could you find out who is doing this to me? Would you have any suggestions on how to block this electronic eavesdropping. Thanking you in advance for your help in this matter I remain yours truly Greg Mahoney

When I open my yoroi wallet extension , yoroi wallet is long time loading and my firefox and mouse cursor freezes then there is crashed . I'm using Firefox flatpak from flathub on Fedora Linux. Everything worked fine before. On the other browser it is also work fine. I think it happened after update Firefox. How can I fix it ?

Okay, so 5 months ago, I cleaned up my bookmarks. I had a ton, but now looking back, there were some that I really would've liked to keep. So I'm would like to know if there would be a way to restore deleted bookmarks from that long ago.

Iam using Windows 7 on my Laptop and I have constant flickering on the screen. There seems to be many users who have complained about this. Why is Firefox not taking any steps to solve the problem?

Firefox don't wait for someone in the community to solve this. Please depute your engineers and address this issue

Why isn't the Restore Previous Session choice available on the Open Application Menu? Even if I click the checkbox under Tools/Settings/General/Startup: Open Previous Windows and Tabs (version 107/windows 11), I am presented with a tabula rasa screen on reopening my Firefox session. Your help/support says to go to the Open Application Menu/History and choose Restore Previous Session (located between Recently Closed Windows and Clear Recent History). However the Restore Previous Session is not listed. Not sure why Firefox can't get this right since you have had it right for the almost 20 years I have chosen it as my default browser.

Hi, I'm using Firefox 107.0 on a Mac O/s Monterey 12.6.1. I'm trying to log in to Virginmedia web site and I'm being informed that my password is invalid. However, when logging in using Safari, I'm able to log in fine. I've cleared all cookies for the web site and still no joy. I am also unable to login using the Mail client for the same reasons. Any suggestions please?

I have 3 PCs with Firefox. The bookmarks and bookmarks toolbars were all synced but one machine required re-installation, and now I have a fresh Firefox and have forgotten how to import the bookmarks and bookmarks toolbars. I don't seem to have any password for Firefox sync and I can't find where and how to import the bookmarks. Can anyone help?
