The picture-in-picture setting use to keep the detached video visible if I scrolled the original or source page past the video player. Now the detached video disappears and reverts back to the source page when I scroll this control out of view. Is this change intentional and permanent?

I installed Firefox yesterday, and everything was fine for a day. Today, when I play a YouTube video, the entire page freezes - I can't pause it, select text, or do anything. The page starts responding after about 10 seconds from last interaction.

Compared to Chrome, I can play 20 YouTube videos at once and everything works fine.

The problem only occurs on YouTube. Sites like CDA and Jellyfin work fine.

Hi. I have used Firefox for years and had a well-organized set of bookmarks (over 100!) and al my associated passwords saved. I was using them just fine last week but when I launched my computer this week, all were gone. I noticed that a new version of Firefox was installed on the 14th and when I launched on the 15th, nothing was there. Instead, I got the yellow banded message that many users saw saying that bookmarks may not be available. I followed the instructions and tried following several methods to recover my bookmarks but nothing has worked. Can I revert back to a version where my bookmarks exist? This is confusing and aggravating beyond words because all these methods seem to offer slightly different approaches. In addition, the only backup folder I can locate is dated Oct 15th, AFTER the update that wiped out all my bookmarks.

Disabling Tab Restore on OS Restart

I'm trying to stop Firefox from restoring tabs after I restart my OS. So far, I've done the following:

  • Disabled `Startup > Open Previous Windows and Tabs`
  • Disabled all extensions
  • Confirmed I do not have a `user.js` file
  • Set `browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash` to `false`
  • Set `browser.sessionstore.restore_on_demand` to `false`
  • Set `browser.sessionstore.resuming_after_os_restart` to `false` (It was already set this way.)
  • Set `browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes` to `0`
  • Set `privacy.clearOnShutdown.openWindows` to `true`
  • Set `browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo` to `0`
  • Set `browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo` to `0`

(I've since reverted the last two and the extension changes after they didn't work.)

So far, Firefox will not restore tabs on application restart (manually closing and relaunching) or on crashing (after sending SIGTERM/SIGKILL), but it still restores tabs after restarting the OS (if I allow the OS to kill it during shutdown). I've seen a couple suggestions to disable history completely, but I do occasionally refer to my browsing history, so I'd prefer a less-drastic approach. Ideally, I just want Firefox to treat the first launch after a shutdown as a normal launch and not apply any special behavior. Any help would be much appreciated!

The launch of Firefox Profiles seems to have obliterated everything in my account: bookmarks, history, open tabs, and extensions are all gone completely. I have an option to import files from another browser, but not from my own past firefox. I logged into my Mozilla account, but I didn't have any other devices so I think it was still unable to recover the data? Is there anything I can do about this, or is all of my data truly gone?
