In my Win 10 PC, Firefox has been set to update automatically as it is recommended.
136.0.2 (64-bit) is the most recent one that updated automatically.
Now all my extensions have been wiped out, my workspace changed.
That is such a breach of integrity, and a lack of respect for the user, and his carefully set up work environment, when an Auto-Update just molests my work environment. And then I have to take out hours from my busy routines, to devote to restoring everything to how it was.
There is no rollback feature for Updates, esp when Updates do the havoc they do.
There is no proper Session Management, and a standard protocol for saving, aggregating sessions across different installs, rollbacks, etc, and having the most updated, and complete one, where the onus is on the user not losing data.
Now I have to go hunt around for the past profiles, and name the present one as old, and hope that Firefox functions with integrity, and completeness to restore my whole work environment from the last profile. I'll of course be losing whatever work I happened to do in the new profile now. One never knows how complete these profiles are to reconstruct things exactly the way they were.
Strange. I always believe that stability, and integrity, and a dedication towards that on behalf of the user would be the primary goal. Now it's all about chasing something else, some bells and whistles, and faster performances, and throwing stability, and data integrity under the bus.
