Instructions begin with "Click on the three horizontal lines and select OPTIONS." My updated version of Firefox does not have OPTIONS. Reinstalling Firefox did not solve the problem. In OPTIONS, PDF is supposed to be in the list. Opening a pdf file in Firefox did not cause an edit option to appear.

Fire Fox is shown in the Task Bar. When selected, a new tab opens the desktop. I prefer using the shortcut display under the Fire Fox logo with two rows of internet selections. When the Task Bar Fire Fox icon is selected, Fire Fox opens as expected. However, if I select any item on the open page, a second Fire Fox icon appears in the taskbar but without the same pinned shortcuts on the preferred Fire Fox page. How is this second, unwanted page to be removed.

I've read about this problem in posts that are twenty years old and hesitate to follow that advice. Thank you in advance for a solution to this annoying problem.

How can i download a pdf of my passwords. I think i need to set up a lock screen first. Please give precise instructions how to accomplish both these tasks. Im having great difficulty signing in and out of sites so until i figure out how and why things have changed i need a list of passwords. My device is currently unlocked. I have trouble finding my way back to my questions here. Why doesnt firefox have a history function? Sometimes it does but its not recent. I put all these questions together because its too difficult finding my way back to every individual question. I have a hundred questions about firefox so many that its daunting to consider as it would take me days to do and its time i dont have. Somehow my firefox account has gotten too confusing and complex

My account was probably hacked. I noticed this from an email I received from Mozilla. My account was logged in from Africa, which i noticed from the timezone because the email gives literally no detail. I logged into my account to kick them out but i found out i couldnt because the button didnt work. All the other kick buttons worked except the hackers. Mozilla has done nothing other than to email me.

The Help is recommending clearing the startup cache, but I don't know what that is so I can't decide if it's something I want to do. Is it the same place that stores all my cookies and other saved material, or is it something different? If it's different, what does it store and why would clearing it be useful?

I have firefox installed using google search. After the latest update searching is extremely slow. This is a windows 11 machine. I have cleared cache, cleared browsing history, turned off add blocked and some extensions and add ons. Response time on opening search results is extremely slow. Other search engines respond immediately.

I have multiple profiles, one of which I use the most and consider the main profile.

I just used another profile, then switched back to the main one, after which I selected a desktop shortcut, which opened my secondary profile, instead of opening up in the main one.

How can I avoid this?

EDIT: Along with my original inquiry, i just noticed a couple things in the interface changed. I discovered that I had been upgraded from v133 to v134 without a confirmation notification, and also contrary to my settings, or so I thought.

This is my normal setting (first Image), but then I checked my settings, which were changed without my knowledge.

I never allow automatic updates.
