Firefox always shows Windows 10 but I use Windows 11

Maybe that's at the root of the problem I'm constantly having with my history & bookmarks being unavailable every time Windows updates? The strange thing is that this page shows that Firefox does know I'm using 11.

I've already posed the question I have about resolving that matter. Hope this helps someone figure out the answer. Thanks to whoever tries!

A Firefox 147.0.1 UserAgent on Windows 10 and 11 is Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0

Windows 11 is basically based on the same NT 10.0 as Windows 10. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_NT#Releases

Perhaps when Microsoft actually makes a new version of Windows it will be based on a new NT to prevent this sort of thing.

Thank you. I was wondering about that. Having spent about three hours today with a Microsoft tech actually taking over my laptop (for the umpteenth time) to fix it, I ended up losing the QuickAssist connection for some reason and now have to start all over again. HOWEVER, maybe you have insight into what Firefox might be doing because this latest tech seemed to be working at making a correction in my Firefox profile before I lost the connection.
