Labelled as "Firefox Sync" as it may be involved, as the only preserved data is seemingly what comes through firefox sync.
Hi all, My C drive filled itself with 50GB of Crusader Kings 3 crash logs.
While the drive was (unknowingly) full, I opened firefox. Firefox was...wonky...and instantly I could tell something was wrong, as my speeddial homepage was missing all the sites. My best guess is that, in the worst timing ever, firefox sync chose this time to sync. I immediately cleared space on the drive, and restarted firefox. No extension data recovered. I restarted the PC. No extension data recovered.
I began following Firefox troubleshooting steps, such as checking about:profile. Other profiles are present, but each lacks any extensions or extension data. I widened my search with Everything, to search everywhere for any waylaid installs or profiles that may hold backups. Specifically, prefs.js, extensions.json, firefox.exe (incase I was somehow running a non-default install location) or any sign of other installations. I did find some hits, but none had extensions installed.
Perhaps useful, my FF profile weave folder is populated with many CORRUPT files, and the 'failed' folder lists addons, bookmarks, clients, extension-storage and prefs from it's most recent sync. Perhaps this is the result of trying to write to a full disk?
This is mostly an exercise of curiosity now, as the developer of Group Speed Dial (Juraj Mäsiar) helped me recover from their own backup system seperate from the Mozilla Preferences. I have an easy way to see if any backup file has the correct data, as I have many settings that are instantly visible.
Useful info: Antivirus - None added (Windows Defender) FF Version - 111.0.1 (64-bit) Profile - default-release
(Moz Helpers, the remainder of this post is irrelevant, and purely to help future travellers) If a weary traveller comes across this post in the future, I gift you my knowledge from the year 2023 of Group Speed Dial. At this time, the way you access the backups on your system is to navigate to the Group Speed Dial homepage. If you are on the default homepage, you should find the option to set it as New Tab or Homepage in Firefox settings. Next, as you face the oblivion of an empty dialler page, click the Burger Menu (top-right for me) for the extension. NOT the firefox burger menu, the one as if you were clicking a menu in a website. For me, the Fourth option is History/Backups. This is a new-ish feature from the developer, so don't be surprised if it move around...be they seem very proud of it, so I imagine it lurks somewhere!
If you just want to recover your extension list, at this time you can find a complete list of everything by examining extensions.js, extension-settings.js and extension-preferences.js. There is a tool online for helping parse into a human readable table, but I would not rely on it, and instead look into a generic JSON formatter to make the data human readable. The site is jeffersonscher.com, which has a extension file reader here https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/extensionsjson.html
Have a nice day all!

Lots of 'to-do's' on those tabs, and time spent searching. So if there's a way to recover, would much appreciate.

This must be the umteenth time i have written and never received a response. Why oh why when i just want to OPEN a document to you also SAVE it?

Please, please, please give me an answer and tell me how to avoid all this frustration.

Recently I can no longer log into Houzz from Firefox. Previously I've accessed Houzz from Firefox for many years without any problem. I contacted Houzz and they recommend using Google Chrome, and logging into Houzz from Chrome is no problem. But I am a devoted Firefox user. Any suggestions? Thank you!

I have my bookmarks alphabetized. When I click on one far down the list & then want to click on the next one the list of my bookmarks always reverts to the top of my list. Can I change this to have my bookmarks stay in the same place that I left off with instead of having to scroll all the way down again?

I signed in yesterday and instead of getting Bing as my home page, I got Norton Safe Search. Never asked for Norton and don't want it. How do I get Bing back? There was some reference which said in effect that the home page was changed by 'an extension' and that it could be changed but no indication on how to do that. I recently downloaded Windows 11 from Windows 10.

Last night I was able to access www.wattpad.com with no problem and have in fact been receiving notices from them all day. However, when I tried to access the website this morning and this evening I get an Error 404 message. I can bring up the page on Chrome, but Chrome is not my preferred browser. I have received the same error on two different computers.
With the last update my e-mail attachments won't work, and there is a big grey banner at the top of my home page. Why, and how is this fixed?

I was paying a bill and at the end there was a pop up from Firefox to save the payment method. I clicked the wrong box and it was saved. I would like to reverse that error. I don't know where to find it to delete my choice. It was my bank account information that I use to pay bills on line. Thanks in advance for your help. Sue Ellen Knutson [email address]
