Firefox Community Forum

Recently clicked to update to the next version of Firefox. Then I get the message "Restart to Update Firefox." I restart Firefox but the message is still there when I click Help > About Firefox. It would appear that the update did not happen for some reason. Do I need to re-install Firefox to get around this problem?

Why are you asking me to update my Firefox account every 3 or 4 days. This is far too often. You previously updated every several weeks. I'm thinking of going back to Edge or Safari unless you stop bugging me every few days.

Hi, firefox deleted my history after an update. The only browsing history i have left is yesterday and today since after the update. My bookmarks and the session i was in were still there.

I only have one profile. i dont have a index.dat file unter C:\Users\<myname>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles. Any data recovery tools cannot find one either. about:cache only shows me the history after the update.

I dont know what to do and now i've lost my history of the last about 8 years. Does anyone have an idea?

Hello, In october, I got a window asking me to update Firefox (I am on OSX 10.9.5). I downloaded the file (Firefox 131.0.3 dmg) opened it, and dragged to applications. Everything seems OK. Now I read that Firefox does not send such windows, but makes background updates. Should I worry ? Thanks ! René

I'm on a Mac Pro running OS Sierra, 10.12.5. I cannot upgrade this Mac due to a specific version of Pro Tools that I have, that will only run on this Mac OS. My current version of Firefox is 115.0.3 (64-bit) on the ESR channel.

My question is this: Is there another version I can update Firefox to, and how? Or is there another browser you would recommend I use?

Thanks, Ray Kallas

I am 87 years old. I never had problems using Firefox before. I thought I followed all the directions to upgrade it including donating. Still don't have access to it. Please help

As title. Installed the latest update as soon as i came out. I get the "Welcome to Firefox" tab and the 2nd tab "Firefox Privacy Notice" opened.

The 1st "Welcome" tab, has the box and buttons asking me to import old setting and all that jazz. I have down in quiet a few times and nothing is taken root. I have went through the process of installing all my old addons and extensions, I am not sure how many times, as I use them every time I open my browser to watch Twitch or Youtube, Beyond 20, and what have you. And of course it keeps resetting my toolbar and the bookmarks and settings on my homepage.

I thought at first, it might be buggy and after a day or two it would get fixed an updated. But alas, nothing thus far and this is forcing me to use other craptastic browsers I rather not even have installed on my system.

I have refreshed Firefox a time or two, I uninstalled and reinstalled, but I am afraid to completely wipe it out, as I do not want to lose my bookmarks, passwords, and other saved information, that I probably should not have saved but I do because my memory is "teh suck".

I would appreciate any insight on how tor resolve this issue.

Thanks!
