Firefox Community Forum

Hello,

Today my Google start up page turned Black. All other sites are normal colors. I tried basically all that I could to keep the background to system settings, no themes and no extensions added except for Image extensions (that I have no issues with). I have Firefox Version 144.0 (64-bit) On a Mac Mini OS 10.15.7

Should I do a Firefox Reset? Please help me with this issue.

Thank you, Phil Khoury

Firefox is shutting down all my active tabs automatically WITHOUT asking me. This is regularly happening and wastes a lot of time. Is it due to installing Updates ? I DON"T want ANY updates and I am fully happy with my current version. If this doesn't go away, I will have to delete this browser and move elsewhere.

I don't have a Profiles menu under the Account button on the main toolbar. My Firefox was just updated and the update tab info talked about the new profiles feature as if it was available. Is this rolling out in phases or should I be seeing it?

I have version 144.0, updated on 10/14/2025.

Thanks.

I ran CCleaner and now I can no longer use my bookmarks or even see my top sites. I love using Firefox due to ease and now that I can no longer get my bookmarks to work or see my top sites, It is difficult to use.

Please help.

Thanks,

Fred

Firefox updated last night and now my bookmarks feature is not working. All of my previous bookmarks are missing. I tried syncing several times to no avail.

 Also, I tried several times to "Bookmark Current Tab" and that feature does not work.  Nothing pops up to select where to file bookmark and when I go back to check, there are still no entries in the Bookmarks. 
 I checked, and I am signed in with my Gmail account.
 When I select a new tab, none of the icons for previously used websites are below the Google search bar.

I'm not a computer programmer, or an expert, just a user with a little bit of knowledge. I've just looked at your answer to the missing icon problem. You suggested refreshing Fire Fox. This sounds like a brilliant answer to my problem, but you missed out the crucial steps to how to do this. This isn't the first time I've felt like hurling objects at my computer after trying to follow your trouble shooting instructions.

These steps might seem obvious to your software technicians, but many of us are oblivious on how to do these simple things. Could you please pretend that we are all computer illiterate, and include the final steps in your answers. If you don't like writing the same thing over and over again, could you please just paste a link at the end on "How to Refresh Firefox."

Thanks!

PS I'm running Windows 11 on a Dell Latitude laptop, using the brand new Firefox version. (As of yesterday.)

Operating System: SteamOS 3.7.15 Build: 20250903.1 KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.9.0 Qt Version: 6.8.1 Kernel Version: 6.11.11-valve24-2-neptune-611-gfd0dd251480d (64-bit) Firefox Browser: Mozilla Firefox Flatpak mozilla-flatpak - 1.0 144.0 (64-bit)

When in browser and signed into account, user is able to copy obscured password information simply by clicking "Copy" in the password manager. User is more familiar with Windows systems and using Firefox browser on that system, which prompts User to input the systems PIN to verify identity.

- I'm used to using Firefox on Windows 10. Recently got a Steam Deck and am trying to relearn Linux as it's been awhile. First thing I downloaded was Firefox so I could easily copy my passwords for VPNs and accounts. Didn't think it would be as easy as clicking "Copy" in the password manager. Is there a way to set up a PIN for a little more added security. I've already created a User Account and it did prompt me once (I think), but with the portability I'd like it to ask for a PIN (shorter than password) or frequently. Thanks
