Firefox recently updated to version 95.0. After updating, Firefox does not connect to the internet. It keeps timing out when trying to connect. All settings remain the same. I cannot communicate/troubleshoot using Firefox because it will not communicate on the internet. Microsoft Edge works fine and communicates.

Is there a way to back out of the version 95.0 and return to version 94.02?

Last time I updated Firefox all menus and settings were lost. How can I avoid that? Yes, I know the answer is "that shouldn't happen" but it did and took my software engineer husband an hour to figure out how to get them back. Would like to skip that step. It's been more than a year since I updated but I'm now getting error messages saying my browser is out of date and website cannot be used without an update. Help!

Before the 95.0 Firefox Browser update, all files would download to a location on my harddrive. The files can still be downloaded to my harddrive, but I can't set the option to automaticallly download files to my harddrive. Each time I download a file it wants to open the file and I must click save file. But the default that tells me if I want to automatically do an action isn't there. I can't set the browser to automatically save files.

Can you help?

I'm using JetBrains IDEs for developing and those has a built-in option to show currently edited code in different browsers like chrome, edge, ff, safari etc. I use this feature, but after I've installed Firefox from Microsoft Store instead of stand alone installer, the IDE can't resolve Firefox's install path. Where should I search for it?

My primary machine has (FF 88.0.1 64-bit) has all the FF tweaks for privacy and annoyances I care to have. Last outstanding issue is floating videos -- but that's posted as another topic by me. Big questions:

1. Can I bring FF on the three other laptops and server to the same FF revision level at this machine and copy across all files that would capture settings this machine's settings/changes in Config and Policies ?

I currently make quick work of syncing UBlock and AdBlocker on all machines by simple export/imports of text files. Everything tweaked exactly the same on every machine with respect to FF is what I am after...

Howdy, fellow Firefox aficionados.

I'm running FF on a Windows 10 Home 64-bit desktop. Some time ago, I suddenly could no longer open Firefox because it couldn't find my Profile. So, I attempted to create a new one, but it would not allow me to do so.

"Changes Not Saved"

   "An unexpected Error has prevented your changes from being saved."

[See uploaded Image]

More than likely, either I, or one of my system maintenance programs wiped some data or folder. I have deleted Firefox and reinstalled it with the latest version, but this dilemma persists.

Thanks for reading my post and if you reply, a big Thanks!
