I am on Pop OS. I ran some update and restarted and all of my tabs are gone and Firefox is not showing any history of them. I was under the impression that if I had an account it would keep track of the history but there is nothing there. How does this happen and why? Also how can I get my tabs back I am one of those people that has like 50 tabs open So I can run several things at once I never had this issue with goggle but for some reason it happens often with Firefox what gives?

Hi! I reached out on Friday and was sent a code that expired in 5 minutes, missed the deadline and had to leave the library. I updated Firefox to 155 and can't find my bookmarks. Also found that a Microsoft update included Goggle Chrome that I uninstalled. Please advise on getting my bookmarks back thank you. I only have 30 minutes left on line. Thank you for all the work you volunteers are doing, greatly appreciated! Mark

After finding v157.0.1 buggy, I uninstalled and installed v153.4.0 but lost my profile

After discovering a bug in v1.57.0.1 (related to failing to play videos on facebook - bug report filed) - in a senior moment compounded by exhaustion, I uninstalled v 157.0.1 without making a backup of the profile. IOW, I fucked up.

After I installed a stable version, v 153.4.0, I selected my prior username profile from the firefox startup menu. I got a popup warning that attempting to load the profile of a newer version on this older version might corrupt the profile settings. But is offers only 2 option: create a new user profile or QUIT firefox. No option to attempt to load the profile I was using on v 157.0.1 even if risky.

Besides that, with a new raw profile, I am finding v153.4.0 buggy! When I open Settings (about:preferences) the sidebar is populated with all the normal sections but none of them show the options. the main window is blank, except for a search box for "Find in Settings".

I am getting too old for this :\

I *think* I had Sync enabled and my android cell phone added. but I am concerned that I might erase whatever profile settings I might have on my phone if it syncs with this new, blank profile on my desktop.

Is there a way to possibly recover the settings profile I had on v157.0.1 before i uninstalled it? anything 'preserved' in the Trash or ?? (I see nothing in Trash related to the firefox un-install)

I see several profiles in my current user > .cache > mozilla > firefox

I have made duplicates of all of them. Am I safe in trying to create a new user based on the profile of my prior account from v 157.0.1?

Hi, I wrote about a month ago and didn't get help in recovering my lost bookmarks. I've spent the month looking at .JSONLZ4 files to see if there was anything there, nothing I could find. I've gone through all the suggestions and haven't found the bookmarks. I have limited time on line, and appreciate the volunteers' time in addressing this issue, any help you can offer is greatly appreciated. Thank you! Mark

Profile/session doesn't ever save/load

I run normal firefox on linux. Fully up-to-date. Every time I quit the app, it reverts to a version of my profile from a month ago, and loads all the tabs I had open then, and then receives all the tabs that I sent to the device in the interim (~1 month). As I speak, it just caught the 60 or 70 tabs in this window.

I tried changing the name of my profile folder to randomstring.defaultOLD and changed one of the backups to randomstring.default. This didn't change the behavior. I'm still stuck in the loop. I saved my tabs with onetab, because firefox isn't remembering my session anymore. I thought it was something to do with updates, like it only loses its mind upon updates, but that's not true. It thinks it's updating firefox EVERY TIME, because the one time it's loading to 1 month ago it was updating, but I'm 100% sure there are no updates to firefox in my linux. It's just hallucinating.

The articles on restoring from backup are outdated. They say to use an html file. There is no html file. It's just folders for profiles, not html files. HELP!
