I believe I had all this synced in Firefox Settings before I made the upgrade. Like all you fellow former users of Windows 10, I had to upgrade to Windows 11; and did so two days ago. Now, I found that I do not have under History any of the former sites I not only visited but also had tabs open. What can I do, if anything, to recover them? Under the Add-ons Manager, if this helps, I already had the app Tab Session Manager, but don't know how to use it. Thanks to all in advance who may have made this same upgrade. Many out there are still on Windows 10.

I uninstalled Firefox on my computer and reinstalled it, but when I logged in, the account couldn’t sync, it was as if the sync couldn’t retrieve any data from the server. Nothing happened at all.

On my Android phone, the data is still there, but when I tap “Synchronize now,” nothing happens either. I’ve tried signing out and signing back in multiple times, but still nothing works.

I also tried switching to a different computer and a different internet connection, but it still didn’t work.

What should I do now?

I'm taking my bi yearly Brain test and it wants to access my microphone so I can speak into it but I can't figure out how for them to access the microphone. I've done what Windows told me to do, go to start>settings>privacy and security>Microphone and made sure it was turned on but that didn't work. Is there something in Mozilla that I can do?

Hi, i like to share idea of tab group improvement. I have more than 20 tabs, and i clean, move open tabs to groups every week, to lower opened tab amount, so i don't need to scroll much. But when i want to consume tab group content, i need to read them all to see what i want to consume... Solution, i would like option to sort tab groups by name, that way it will be faster to find what i want. Also it would be easier to find what tab group to add tab when i clean, move opened tabs. I have more than 500 tabs in my tab group. I finally decided to stop YT search, instead clean my tab groups. Thanks for reading.

Unlike before, many sites that I visit regularly, I am now having to log in every time I visit, including support.mozilla.org.

Did I unknowingly change something, some setting? or perhaps it's due to an addon?

google is saying cookies are disabled when using FF to login. This was working Privacy is set to STANDARD and I went into settings and removed google.com as well to no avail.

How do I fix this?

Thanks leon

I updated Firefox to 145.0 this morning, and after Firefox had restarted, it had lost all bookmarks and the bookmarks toolbar. I have spent all day following links to correct the problem and got nowhere. I have restarted Windows and Firefox countless times - no change. I've even tried reinstalling Firefox over the existing version. If I go to bookmarks > manage bookmarks > restore and backup, sometimes that will load, others not. When it does load, it fails to find a file to restore from. 10 years of bookmarks, links & research vanished.

Can someone please provide a solution (preferably in Layman's terms) to this??

WhatsApp Web se files download nahi ho rahi hain. Jab bhi main koi photo ya document save karne ki koshish karta hoon to download fail ho jata hai. Kripya iska solution batain.

I have websites I frequent like Youtube and my email set to 'remember me' so I don't log back in every time I open Firefox. Recently, for some reason, whenever I close Firefox I am logged out of everything, and if I open it again I have to log back in to all the services I use.

Settings I think may be relevant to this issue:

• Enhanced tracking protection is set to standard
• "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" is set to false
• "Remember browsing and download history" is set to true
• "Remember search and form history" is set to true
• "Clear history when Firefox closes" is set to false

I have not changed my account settings at all, and this problem has only cropped up in the past few days, leading me to believe it could be something to do with a new update? I'm no expert though, I just know this is driving me mad.

I did not have an account, (i made it js now to ask the question) but every time i opened firefox everything was saved, my search history, pinned pages, PASSWORDS, (which are all gone and its the worst thing in this situation) accounts on multiple websites, and this type things, EVEN when there were some updates to the app. And the latest profile update, yes i was scared for a second that itll all be gone when i made the new profile but i saw theres another profile with all my things saved. But now, i open the app, and its like i just installed firefox. There are some business tings to set up, they asked me if i want to create a new account, some things i just skipped, then i look and its a whole fresh app. No passwords, no extensions i had, no theme i set up, no saved search history, NOTHING. Now is this normal, and my fault because i didnt have an account? Because im pretty sure that shouldnt happen and i really need all those things. But if its my fault then i get it, although im still a bit upset but if theres any way to recover, or prevent this from happening next time, please let me know.

No matter what I did(and I did go through all the steps suggested on line) the program locks up my computer when I would try to start it. I'm on a Windows 10 lap top ver. 19045 with a fresh reinstall of windows.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, both under user and admin rights, getting fresh install files with and without having the security and firewall on, running it under admin rights without security or firewall. I tried repairing the program before uninstalling it.

Nothing worked. The program would lock up my computer every time I tried to start it. my only choice would be to power down the computer and start over. I was looking for a browser less resource hungry than Google and not quite as intrusive. Maybe you can suggest one that works.

When using desktop Firefox 145.0 for Windows to browse the demo page of Logseq, the division/button to choose a folder on my computer is missing, and the following text is in place instead.

"It seems that your browser doesn't support the new native filesystem API, please use any Chromium 86+ based browser like Chrome, Vivaldi, Edge, etc. Notice that the API doesn't support mobile browsers at the moment."
