Frequently (Roughly every other time at this point, it was less frequent when the problem first started) when I turn on my computer and open firefox, I end up looking at the attached image (How I have come to loathe it) and find that all of my settings have been reset to the defaults (usually, sometimes its only most of them), and all of my tabs have been closed. Most concerningly it is happening on two different devices. After I fix all my settings I have to close and reopen firefox twice (its almost always twice, if the second time doesnt do it then its about a dozen) and just clicking the X doesnt do anything at all, I have to close it with the task manager. This has been happening for a little over a month.
Facts that might matter:
I am using two different windows laptop computers from different manufacturers, by default I do not log into firefox.
My previously tabs are saved so I am usually able to restore them but there appears to be a limit because I often lose several.
my history is still intact and websites that I am logged into usually remain logged in.
my extensions are still there but logged out.
I use Nord VPN
I have my settings set to always ask me before applying a firefox update.
Things I have tried and still experienced this issue:
Logging into different firefox accounts
making sure I am logged out of firefox accounts
turning off my VPN
changing my VPN location
browsing with the default settings
restarted my computer without changing anything else (Things were still borked).
waiting for the next firefox update
reverting to a previous update.
