When I logged into my laptop on 9th November Firefox had closed. This happens sometimes, I'm often not sure why, but this time the previous session didn't automatically repopulate when I restarted. I navigated to the history options with the idea of retoring the previous session - either using that functionality or individually opening previous windows - but history was blank and the previous windows option was greyed out. Following suggestions online I've looked for .bak or .json or similar files to use as restore points but there's nothing since much earlier in the year up to 8th November, which are pretty much empty, and the 9th.

I'd be very grateful for any suggestions!

I want to use Classic Bing as my homepage on Firefox. But, Microsoft has shoved New Bing down our throats for most of the year. There's a large white search box AND an enormous gray box "Introducing the New Bing." Both of these boxes take up half of the homepage, and completely obscure the Bing daily image, the only reason I use Bing. How in the world can Firefox help me get rid of these New Bing annoyances and let me enjoy the Bing daily images?

Hello

The google search bar on the home page has increased in size and my extensions/add on such as cache cleaner and adblocker do not appear on the toolbar even though they are turned on. I tried refreshing Firefox but that did not solve the problems. Thank you

Hallo Wenn ich in Firefox eine Seite Öffne kommt sofort eine Betrugsversuchsmeldung von meinem Bitdefender Internet Security Programm. Inzwischen fast 500 mal seit 14 Tagen. Es handelt sich immer um die selbe Seite.

Habe die Seite am Router Und im PC  gesperrt. Hat nicht geholfen. Außer 2 Abstürze in den vergangenen Tagen kann ich jedoch keine Fehler oder sonstiges feststellen. Schon seit längerer Zeit kann ich mit Fierefox nicht mehr auf mein Bitdefender Central einwählen.

Hier die Copy der Meldung.

Online-Gefahrenabwehr

So kann ein gefälschter Online-Shop das Opfer zum Beispiel dazu bewegen, Zahlungen im Voraus zu leisten, ohne dass die Ware dann geliefert wird.

Wie kriege ich die Ratte wieder los.

I have an overactive spam folder. I have added numerous websites/emails to my contact list several times and these senders are still sent to the spam folder. I have to check spam and inbox folders for my legit emails. I have used FF for years and not had this problem! It is making me want to change my settings and forget FireFox!

When downloading a file, if the filename has no extension, Firefox adds ".html" to the filename. I want it to leave the filename as-is, with no extension. It will leave the name intact if I surround it with quotation marks, but it didn't previously require this.

Firefox Settings relates to Firefox extensions, which is not this issue. And the list of Applications does not include names that don't have an extension.

Example of situation: An SSL Certificate site needs to confirm my ownership of a domain. I download a file from the issuing site. The file's name has no extension. Firefox adds ".html", which causes the file to be not found after uploading.

Firefox did not have this misbehavior before the most recent update.

continue in /questions/1424778 in Thunderbird section.

Having used Thunderbird for some time, I installed it on a new PC, and found that virtually all my emails on a particular account seem to have been deleted, despite the app being set up to retain them. I checked on the webmail (BT) and they have gone. The account is set up as IMAP - as is another account on the same server, which seems OK. BT won't engage with me on this as they "don't support third party apps" I assume that 3 years worth of important client history is gone for ever? Can anyone suggest what I did wrong, or is this a software failure?

I tried to log onto Youtube so I could make a few comments on a football game. They had to send me a code to my email (HOTMAIL) BTW I never received a code to LOG into YouTube. I used "Snip & Sketch" as I have many many times before but now I open a photo to edit it and Microsoft has taken over my photos. I mean as far as my editing capabilities. I've tried all the "OPEN WITH" options but can not get to the basic photo editor. Need some help here... Thanks in advance Steve

YouTube is not playing videos on my Firefox browser. When I click on the link to a video, it leads me to the page, but the video player stays blank and nothing plays (see attached screenshot). Troubleshooting methods I've tried to no avail:

   refreshing the page
   restarting the computer
   opening a new window and trying again
   updating my graphics card drivers
   disabling all extensions/add-ons

The site works on my mobile app, and other browsers (chrome and internet explorer), but I don't want to use either of those options for obvious reasons. Is anyone else having this problem? It's been happening for a few days. Any help would be much appreciated!
