The drag-and-drop from address bar to desktop to create a internet shortcut is disabled. I can use about:config and change browser.launcherProcess.enabled to FALSE to fix it but it does not last long. It will go back to TRUE. Is there a way to set it to FALSE permanently?
Thanks,

There was already such a question, but it is in the archive and the answers previously given to it by technical support are no longer relevant (the browser.proton.enabled parameter no longer exists). How to return separators as lines in favorites? It's terribly annoying when it's just extended spaces. Not everyone has a perfectly developed eye gauge.

Suddenly my Bookmarks Toolbar vanished from my browser screen. If I click on the Bookmarks Tab I can get the list of the Toolbar as a side bar, but I prefer it to be a horizontal bar always visible. Please tell me how to restore it to its previous state. Thanks!

Today, 6/10/22, I did what we sheep are trained to do, click on the latest update. What happened next is excruciatingly painful: EVERY SINGLE--ALL--FAVORITES AND SAVED PAGES--YEARS, YEARS WORTH OF SAVED PAGES AND FAVORITES, ERASED, GONE, WIPED OUT.
WHAT IS GOING ON? WAS THIS INTENTIONALLY PROGRAMMED? YEARS WORTH OF SAVED PAGES, GONE!!!
So I clicked on an excitingly named "restore" type link. Which resulted in only today's subsequent web activity being included.
What are you people doing?
Why is there no input to search by folders when the user save a bookmark? Is there any way to avoid the combobox input? It's just uncomfortable.

I am using Windows 10 and have spent considerable time trying to recover my lost bookmarks after restoring computer to earlier time. I have followed 'help' guidelines but nothing works.
Firefox claims that bookmarks are saved to a backup profile but there is nothing in the folder.
These are very important research bookmarks collected over years!
I did a Firefox Refresh which messed up my toolbar and I lost an icon so I tried to restore computer to an earlier date which I have done successfully before without problem and without losing my bookmarks.
Please provide easy to understand step by step instructions on how to recover this vital information.

In the year 2022, it should NOT be an issue doing something as universally SIMPLE as dragging and dropping bookmarks WITHOUT going thru a lot of NEEDLESS bullshit. Just another example of disconnected incompetent developers with way too much time on their hands. Here's a novel idea; STOP fucking shit up just for the sake of making yourself relevant to your programming overlords!!
Has firefox fixed the bookmark double spacing issue yet? I don't want to update versions until they do.

1) where is all of your Firefox backups located? 2) i just had some random places.sqlite file corruption and did i therefore lose all of my bookmarks also somehow after renaming the corrupt 'places' file? 3) does it not even backup all of the bookmarks either if it cant read/write the 'places' file normally for some time? 4) how is this kind of stuff even possible with Firefox when everything else works completely fine and normal? 5) is the .jsonlz4 file compressed to a smaller size than html somehow?
