I used Firefox yesterday. My settings are to open Firefox with tabs restored - but all my tabs (as they were yesterday) are missing and when I go to history, the option to restore a recent window is greyed out. The option to restore a previous session doesn't even seem to be there.

I notice in task manager I have 15 firefox tasks. Could my window from yesterday have opened somehow in the background, but not be visible to me anywhere?

I have tried to read the ton of solutions and follow endless links to recover book marks, but guys, I'm an old man. THIS IS SO CONFUSING! Why did Firefox work PERFECTLY for years... AND NOW IT IS ALL FUCKED UP. This is just impossible for me to deal with. You young guys keep trying to improve things and always make things worse. I hate chrome,but now I have to go back there.

Upon restarting my laptop earlier today, I realized that ALL my Firefox bookmarks have disappeared into thin air. Gone (or, rather, "empty") is my bookmarks toolbar, and my bookmark menu, and everything else. What to do? Thank you.

I had a problem with my Zotac PC and had to do a reset, when done none of my passwords or bookmarks came back after the resety even though Firefox asked for my password and email to send me a code but everything is gone and I have way to reach some of my frequently used sites, can you please help? Thank you, George Morris

I got up this morning and, boom, I am forced update Firefox. Lost everything: history, bookmarks, and passwords. It's suggestions are useless. I have gone to "profiles" (only 2 and none of my information is in either). I am living in Taiwan and half the time the help is in Chinese, which I cannot read. The loss of my information is devastating and I cannot find any real person to help me. There must be a way. Where do I find real help?

last night when i closed the system down, i had 5 spacial tabs with names, and apx 50 other tabs open, come to start the system this morning.. all gone.. nothing.. just a new firefox.. all my history.. gone... this is not good, as the 5 spacial tabs that i had where from seriten sits that need to be their,and now.. just gone.. the lot... and all the setting are correct..

I have updated firefox on my desktop, with quite some open tabs, where Firefox promted that after the upgrade all tabs would be restored. However, none of them were restored nor could I find them in the history. I guess I had all opened in a private window. IMHO the prompt could have warned for this and now I have to reconstruct all these tabs with my memory.

Is my assumption right?

HELLO, DUE TO YOUR UPGRADE, WHICH CAME TO ME TODAY, alllllllll OF MY BOOKMARKS HAVE BEEN LOST, OR SOMETHING. Who has the TIME? to read your instructions, which usually don't follow through with any results.

I can't say enough trashy things to you that I don't have the time to deal with this issue.

I had two Firefox tabs open in my lower task bar. I closed out one but it was the wrong one. The one I unpinned has all of my tabs, history and book marks. I can't figure out how to recover it.

and how do I fix it so I can restore previous sessions I accidentally close? I accidentally deleted all prior data from whatever version of Firefox I was using the other day (I didn't have a profile as far as I'm aware) removing all saved passwords, bookmarks, history, and apparently the Restore function.

Hi there,

I've had a Firefox account on my workstation at work so that I can take my browsing with me when I am at a different workstation, sign in and sync no problems.

This morning I was provisioned a new laptop workstation and when I attempted to sync my profile nothing shows up. I am pretty confident I've signed back in to the correct account since I do this from time to time. Unfortunately the old workstation is unrecoverable hence why I was given a new one so I can't backup and import.

Checking the email account I used to set up the profile I found an email from March saying the account would be deleted since I haven't been active. This can't be the case because I have been using this account five days a week for the last 7 years.

Any suggestions on how to recover my profile and move forward?

TIA!

FF 153.0b4 this time, was only a few months ago when FF did this same thing last time! But now its an updated ver and still messing up! It's getting more bloated (But most software is) and trying to do to much and things are going WRONG alot more often. FF (Mozilla) used to go years between data losses and now it's MONTHS! Get your act together Mozilla.

    FF wasn't even updating it self, and I haven't changed anything in days. Worked fine yesterday but when I opened it today, the 4 windows opened but they didn't want to open there tabs (most of them have less than a dozen). The main window showed my menu bar, recent browsing icon and a mostly blank tab bar except for the new tab on the far right, none of the other tabs were loading or even showing up, but the space was there for them. I even just left it sit there and chew on things for about 15 minutes before I decided to exit out (file/exit) and try again. This time my other 3 windows loaded just fine but the main window with around 2 dozen tabs was BLANK! and NO recovery options! Recently closed tabs does show tabs I closed on it before the meltdown but NONE from the LOSS. Nightly does not show any in the Tab sync either (but it may not have been up long enough to sync). There is a previous window, but that is not the one I need to recover (Ironic that it will save a window with 65 tabs closed a week ago and let me recover it but it won't let me recover a window with only a couple dozen tabs from a couple hours ago). Wish I could remember how to wright complicated batch files, then I could make one that would back up the profiles after I close FF, that way when it screws up I could just copy the last backup in place and be working again. And all I would need to do is just put a time code in the profile name to make incremental backups and decide how long to keep them for with out over writing. SEE how SIMPLE that would be for you to do Mozilla? It's been how many years that you've been working on FF and it's predecessor and still no profile backup and restore? And to make things worse, most of the databases used are encrypted in some way so as to be NOT user friendly. We can't even import an old backup or profile parts if we need to recover something or look at something. You make it SO hard to recover from a crash when one happens (and they happen more often than they used to) and even just to back up our info even if we could recover it. You were a great browser, now you are broken and barely adequate bloat ware and getting worse. Problem is that your still better than chrome and edge crap.
