Hi,

I have a very old version of Firefox (51.0.1 64-bit) on Windows 7 Pro. I know it's well out-of-date. It's not my "main" browser, but there are some things I use it for because there are (were) some handy old extension on it. For example there's an extension that simply copies any text I highlight, without my having to press CTRL-C. I find the "scrapbook" invaluable for saving info offline.

Yesterday everything was fine. Today ALL the extensions have been disable because "[extension] could not be verified for use in firefox and has been disabled". There is no option to enable them again.

I have backups of the extensions (xpi files), but firefox is telling me that they appear to be corrupted.

Is there any way to either enable the disabled extensions, or force firefox to reinstall then from my backups? I have toggled "xpinstall.signatures.required" to "false".

Thanks for any help.

i was browsing youtube and suddenly got an ad, which is how i noticed my add-ons were gone. all of them, not just the ad blocker. and they had still been there like a couple of minutes ago. when i go to download any extension, i've tried a lot of them, it just says "installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt" but it doesn't say what i can do about that. please help!

I have been using Linkman for over 15 years and have a very large collection of bookmarks. Is there anyway to enable it? I'd hate abandon Firebox as I do need this extension please help.

Thanks

Is it possible to restore firefox to a previous version to recover all my data? After update, all my firefox pages, tabs, bookmarks and history have vanished. Please help me recover or restore. Thank you!

Running TB 136 on my new Macbook, I transfer my old profile from TB running 128, I use IMAP. The first thing that I noted was emails in my Drafts, Sent, and Spam folders did not transfer, and the Template Folder is missing. I did the transfer by moving a copy of my TB profile to the new install. How do I get the missing emails and the Template folder?

Thanks! Charles

Bonjour Suite à l'installation de la dernière mise à jour j’ai perdu mon organisation et des favoris de Mozilla. J'ai arrêté mon pc dimanche dernier dernier et quand je l'ai rallumé vendredi et lancé Mozilla j'avais tout perdu. Comment récupérer mes données tout en sachant que je n'ai pas de sauvegarde. Espère que je vais pouvoir récupérer les infos car à priori les données dans le navigateur datent de plus d'un an Merci bien de votre aide

One of the things I love abt Firefox Focus is its simple Google search page that won't show any trending topics and it really makes it a no fuss browser.

But after the recent update in android 136.0.1 , I am utterly disappointed that the thing I loved the most abt this browser is no longer there and Google search looks just like it looks in the chromium based broswers.

I want developers to consider this request to make it look like before, it would really make this actually a No fuss browser.

Firefox Desktop (x64) worked normally until the version 135 update was installed. Now tabs (even a single tab) crash after startup unless Firefox is run in troubleshooting mode or Windows 8 compatibility mode. OS is Windows 10 Pro (x64) 22H2 on ThinkPad E495 (AMD Ryzen 5 3500U) Things that haven't resolved the problem: - Remove extensions and themes - Refresh Firefox - Reinstall Firefox - Updating Visual C++ 2015-2022 with Redistributable (x64) version 14.42.34438 - Updating Firefox to version 135.0.1 and subsequently to version 136.0, however updater only works in Windows 8 compatibility mode - Full system scan for malware (none found) Note: Extensions NoScript and Cookie AutoDelete work normally with Firefox running in Windows 8 compatibility mode.

Need to install Firefox ESR. If I overwrite my current version of Firefox (115.0.3), will my bookmarks, passwords, and windows and tabs all be saved? Never had an issue before with installing updates . . . but just want to be sure.

Thanks!

Hi, I keep getting a message that I should update to a newer version of Firefox on Ubuntu. The problem is: I click on the install for 64 bit button, A ...tar.xz file downloads to my desktop, and the process ends completely. How to proceed?

Thanks, Ildikó

I'm not sure when this 136.0.1 update happened but starting today, firefox has been crashing all day. The symptom when I see it is I can't get to a website I then go over to the the help desk (open in firefox), which auto refreshes every couple minutes, is spinning (not updating). If I open a new instance the UI never completely loads. When I close things, then try to open, it says firefox already running and if to quit, yes, and just no UI completely loads. In the end, it will only start working again if I reboot. Several reports were sent to microsoft (the automatic notifying microsoft of issue).

I tried disabling all plugins and same thing still happens.

I do know the helpdesk website had a new certificate installed yesterday. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. It's not like firefox doesn't work when first bringing it up, it works for a while then all of a sudden doesn't? and then starts crashing.

Is anyone else having an issue with the latest version on Win10 x64 using the x64 version of FireFox?

I'm using chrome right now since it just crashed again in "not responding" state. I'd rather stay with FireFox.
