Firefox Community Forum

I don't understand the problem. My accessing Firefox has become limited. I received a note to Upgrad to windows 11... I hae already upgraded. What must I do too have it recognised?

I have many - sqlite - various addresses on my computer, can I delete these? I am being told by Microsoft that I am out of storage and I need to delete some items.

I just got this new computer and want to transfer my FireFox bookmarks and history to it. I cannot access my old account because I do not have access to that email anymore, and you require me to get a code sent to that email to log in. That is still on my old computer that was originally running Windows 8, and has been deteriorating ever since Microsoft jammed Windows 10 down it's throat.

I might still be able to export the bookmarks if there is some way to do that.

The best way would be if I could access to that old account without needing to access bonin006@umn.edu my current email is wayne@nano-dyne.com

Please see if there is a way to help me.

Thanks, Wayne Bonin

Can I download Firefox and save it to a flash-drive instead of installing it? The computer I need it on has a new install of Windows 7 with IE and it will not browse.

I just installed Firefox on a new Windows 11 desktop computer. I ported my profiles over and it appears everything came over EXCEPT: - Themes aren't working. I've tried switching them and they still don't display. The menu bar is black w/white letters; the toolbar is gray with white icons/letters. - My extension icons are there...sort of. If I hover over them I can see the tool tip but the icon doesn't appear on the toolbar which is light gray in color. I can live without the themes if I have to. Not so much the invisible extension icons. Any suggestions as to how I can get them to appear as they do on my Windows 10 desktop? Screen cap below. Cursor is hovered over the Undo Close Tab extension icon but where's the icon? Any suggestions as to how to troubleshoot this will be appreciated!!

Several days ago I backed up my hard drive, preparing to upgrade from W10 to W11. The upgrade was very slow and took a lot of time. Also, when I began to use W11, many of the programs, including Firefox, were slow to load and slow to run. Finally, I decided to try a reinstall of W11, hoping for an improvement. For this second try, I decide to use the option that eliminated programs that, over the years, I had downloaded onto my computer, such as Adobe Reader, Glary Utilities, and Firefox. For whatever reason, this second installation of W11 took less time and programs like Adobe and Glary worked almost as well as before. (They performed a little better on W10.) But not Firefox! Firefox wouldn’t run at all. I then deleted Firefox, using Revo Uninstaller. My next step was to download another copy of Firefox, from the Mozilla website. The result was the error message I have seen on many postings on this website:

Profile Missing Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible.

As of this writing, the path C:\Users\rsuth\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ leads to two folders, both dated 11/11/2024: 0dppjrfa.default contains one file, times.json, dated 8/11/2020 and ru82tlj5.default-release, containing 97 items, files and folders, most – but not all - of the files dated 11/11/2024.

On my desktop is a folder Firefox Bookmarks. Inside is Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/xh22l03a.Default User It contains 79 items, files and folders, mostly dated 7/16/2023

I have used Firefox for many years. It contains links to many handy and valuable websites. I hope that someone who has read this account will be able to direct me to a solution that will allow me to recover my previous Firefox and all the all the important information it contains. And, if that happens, then I will try to do something similar with my lost Thunderbird. Thanks for reading.

Firefox cannot access my bank account. Bank says hello to my name when I log in, but then keeps saying "loading" and can never show me what is in my bank accounts. Why?

Fx 124.0

Why am I getting these notifications? I have the latest version, but this prompt not only asks me to update, but there's no mention that it will install the beta 125.0 beta 1

Since the latest update Firefox doesn't show up in the browser list. I don't want to uninstall to reinstall because I have too many settings in my browser that I don't wish to reset. Please solve the problem.

I have chosen to not auto-update the browser because it interferes with my work. The precise setting is called "Allow Firefox to" "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" (screenshot attached). However, this setting is not honoured. Every month, the browser auto-updates and forces a browser restart for me to continue working (screenshot attached). For 126->127, there was in fact no notification to update and the update happened automatically in the background with a restart forced upon me. What's the point of having this setting if it's not going to be honoured?

I want replace firefox Windows Mozilla MSIX 1- 0 package browser from ms store with regular downloaded version but I do not want to lose all my settings.

How do I go about this?

Thank you!

A friendly hello to whomever is kind enough to read this! Your help is greatly appreciated!

The latest update caused an edit I made to my Profile's userChrome.css file to be nullified. Now there's huge bar where the tabs toolbar used to be, and apparently it's not the title bar, as when I activate the title bar in "Customize Toolbar," this huge gets replaced by the actual toolbar.

I've attached my css code below for inspection. It used to work perfectly, but after the last update (133.0) it's no longer working. What can I do to fix this and have it like I had it prior to the latest update (133.0)?

userChrome.css File: `#main-window[tabsintitlebar="true"]:not([extradragspace="true"]) #TabsToolbar > .toolbar-items {

 opacity: 0;
 pointer-events: none;

}

1. main-window:not([tabsintitlebar="true"]) #TabsToolbar {

   visibility: collapse !important;

}

1. main-window[tabsintitlebar="true"]:not([extradragspace="true"]) #TabsToolbar .titlebar-spacer {

       border-inline-end: none;

}

/* Adding empty space for buttons */

1. nav-bar {

margin-right:140px; }

/* 15px for dragging whole window by mouse*/

1. titlebar {

appearance: none !important; height: 15px; }

/* Fix for main menu calling by Alt button */

1. titlebar > #toolbar-menubar {

margin-top: 10px; }

/* Move minimize/restore/close buttons to empty space */

1. TabsToolbar > .titlebar-buttonbox-container {

display: block; position: absolute; top: 17px; right: 1px; }

1. sidebar-box {

 min-width: 250px !important;

}`
