It's NOT just Bookmarks but topic did not have a good choice.

My problem is that Firefox is opening with the wrong version? When I click a link in another program, like Discord or some others, it does not open with MY version, with the tabs and menus, etc. And if I try to save a bookmark it does not have MY saved bookmarks? So to get around this I copy the URL, open MY real Firefox, paste the URL into it, press enter to go there and then save I my bookmark. If I open my Firefox with a link to Firefox EVERYTHING is normal. It's ONLY when I try opening a link in a different program.

PLEASE Help, I don't know what is wrong. This only started about 10 days agO??

Sounds like the profile set in profiles.ini as the default profiles is not your current profile. You can edit copy of the Firefox desktop shortcut and add a space and the -P command-line switch to bring up the Profile Manager. Make sure that the correct profile is selected and possible tick the "Use the selected profile..." check box.
