Firefox Community Forum

The power went out in my area last night and When I turned my computer on this morning and opened Firefox, all my bookmarks are gone! It says the bookmark file is empty? I had many bookmarks that I use daily. How do I retrieve all my bookmarks I had in my Firefox account? Can someone help? Thank you.

Hi, I'm on Firefox 147.0.3 and windows 11 business 25H2 (26200.7623), with two displays. For the past few weeks: - firefox stays on top - alt-tab to other window on that screen doesn't work, other app is not displayed over firefox - clicking on other app icon in task bar doesn't bring it to foreground/top - even other firefox window (like new private window) is opened in background - the only way around is to minimize firefox - without firefox opened, everything works normally It is really disturbing my flow / ways of interacting with apps / habit of using keyboard to move between apps.

Is it a bug, or is it a matter of some settings? I've seen similar quesiton from 9 years ago https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1140245 but there is no setting of the same name now?

Hi,

At some point in the last couple of weeks, I've started running into very frequent crashes running Firefox in the Linux container on my Chromebook. It previously worked well, but is now unusable. I'm now running Firefox version 147.0.3 on Chrome version 144.0.7559.167. This is after I did a clean reinstall of Firefox using flatpak, which didn't help. It seems like it often happens when my mouse hovers over a browser tab or icon (eg account, extensions, hamburger). Other quirky display behaviour, which mayor may not related, is that videos are often not working (eg Youtube, BBC), and various browser windows (eg when selecting Manage Bookmarks, or restarting in safe mode), open a small size-reduced window. Latest crash reports below -

Thanks for any suggestions.

I received this email after I tried to sign in to my Mozilla account. This is the relevant info from the email:

Your {$providerName} account has been linked to your Mozilla account Mobile Safari on iOS 18.7

I don't know what I did to cause this email to be sent. I wasn't trying to link any other account to my mozilla account.

I'm trying to diagnose an unusual problem on a relative's computer elsewhere in the country via TeamViewer. When Firefox is initiated, the same picture (a man taking a shower) appears, and the VERY 'long URL starts with a Yahoo image file (yimg) and also contains buzzfeed.com well into that URL. I thought I could easily diagnose this, and have failed. Home page is set to blank page. I cleared all browsing data. When that failed I exported bookmarks, created a new profile, and the problem still continued, even before importing the bookmarks or adding any extensions. Something is retaining the unwanted startup behavior. Tonight, out of desperation, I will reconnect and look through the registry.

Can anyone surmise why an unwanted URL is being invoked upon Firefox startup?

When opening Firefox version 147 it asked if I wanted to install updates and after answering affirmative, then it gave "Error: Platform version '147.03' is not compatible with minversion >=147.02 maxversion <=147.02. Maybe try to reinstall Firefox?" The browser will not open. What is the workaround??

Please return my Computer to using Firefox default as my browser as it was 2/01 /2026.Ive tried several times to do this w/o success . I was using windows 11 and have been trying to get rid of MS365 which I never used but have been charged for a solution , but have been blocked and refused cancellation after they asked me to change my email address and PW . Insanely confusing !

Good morning. I opened up Firefox this morning and all 4 rows of shortcuts were missing. I have gone into settings and made sure the settings for 4 rows was still the same. I cannot find them anywhere. Please help
