Firefox Community Forum

While I'm using Firefox, I try to go to a new website and Firefox says that it's installing a new version and I need to stop what I'm doing and restart. When Firefox restarts, it forces me to create a new profile and I've lost everything I had before.

This happens two or three times a day.

Never seen this before. I installed v143.0.4 on 10/3. Since it was an extended length of time up to now, I went to check (Image 1 & 2)

I still wasn't convinced (Image 3)

Also, I never opt to "Automatically Install Updates". I don't know how that got selected, but even so, it did not work.

Explanation please?

Search drop-down list has first Item with blue pushpin symbol next to it and the next item has a blue star symbol next to it. The rest do not have any symbols next to them. I'm using Windows 11, Firefox. and DuckDuckGo.

I'm using the AI Chatbots plugin in the sidebar and I'm trying to log into Claude, but the plugin keeps asking for a verification code and Anthropic only sends a magic link email which doesn't work in this situation.

My bookmarks in Chrome do not import into Firefox. I've Tried importing right from the Chrome browser and importing with an HTML file. No success with my bookmarks. I was able to import an extension, but I deleted it as that isn't my focus. I've checked the HTML file and it does have content (viewed in NotePad). I've looked in all the Bookmark options, but nothing imported there. I paused my NordVPN, no change. I've rebooted my desktop nothing changed. I'm running the latest updated version of Win 11.

Please advise.

My bookmarks and history disappeared from my mobile Firefox. Maybe because I took some permissions away? Not sure why that would destroy a few years history and bookmarks I count on being visually impaired.

Any way to get them back, thanks for your help!

So Outlook is refusing to let me right click and past again. I thought i solved this problem a few years ago by setting dom.events.asyncClipboard.clipboardItem dom.events.asyncClipboard.readText dom.events.testing.asyncClipboard to True in about:config. And sure enough those settings are still set to True so why is Outlook now telling me it can't access my clipboard again?

I was trying to remove the suitcase icon from the Firefox icon on my dock and I ended up erasing all of my history, saved passwords, bookmarks, etc. Is there anyway I can restore all of this information? There are no profiles listed in my browser.

Your not on my apps default list. I was told to uninstall Firefox, and reboot and re-install, I had premium adblock, now I don't, and Firefox still on the default browser list? Whatup? How can You help Me?

FIx the update so I can get to the controls of the AdBlock extension. No list appears when either right or left clicking the "puzzle piece". Default is to temp block many website functions after restart so having the control disappear and in a place it cannot be found means I will need to abandon FIreFox as my main browser. Very sad that this last update has killed that functionality.

When trying to download statements from my TSC webpage, I cannot find the download button that is usually displayed in the upper, right-hand corner. When I use "downloads" from the dropdown menu, nothing appears in the download box that pops up.

After updating to 145.0.1, on Nov. 20, 2025, I can no longer open my gmail. It was fine before the update. I've cleared the cache, browsing history and then disabled all extensions. Nothing helps, but a slash in the address field says 'not secure'. Ive tried my usual shortcut https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox and also https://gmail.com. Neither works. How can I revert to the previous version to see if that works.
