Latest update wiped profile, bookmarks, settings

I have a Firefox account I use as my default work browser. My organization's latest software updates forced me to re-install the latest version of Firefox. I specifically un-checked the box when installing that suggested clearing my settings and extensions, etc because I wanted to retain the way my profile was configured. When I logged back into my account, ALL of my settings, extensions, and YEARS of bookmarks I need to do my job have been completely wiped, and there seems to be nothing in my account that will allow me to recover them--the profile I've been using for year seems to have been completely reset, with all its history completely wiped.

Is there any possible way I can recover my bookmarks?? I did not create an external backup and realize that makes things harder, but I assumed my profile would retain its history as it was tied to an account I was always logged into.

After recent update, The auto scroll feature will not stop working no matter what I do. I have unchecked the box and have set all auto scroll Items ti false but the auto scroll will not turn off. How can this be turned off or a new release / up date? I have gone from 32 bit to 64 bit after the last update as well.

How to completely disable Firefox from auto-starting on a MacBook Air M3?

Hi everyone, I am using a MacBook Air M3 with 8GB of RAM. Due to my workflow, I heavily utilize multiple windows simultaneously across both Brave and Firefox. Unfortunately, this heavy usage has caused my CPU and RAM demand to go through the roof.After doing some research, I was advised to switch back to Safari as my default browser to conserve system resources, and to use other browsers only as secondary tools.

To make this transition work, I need to prevent Firefox from automatically launching every time I start up my laptop. I do not want Firefox to open until I explicitly choose to launch it myself. I have searched through every conceivable setting, option menu, and help file, but I cannot find a solution to this basic issue. If I cannot find a way to stop this auto-start behavior, I will be forced to uninstall Firefox altogether, which I would prefer to avoid.How can I definitively stop Firefox from opening automatically on system boot?

Thank you for your help.

I got a notice that an upgrade was available. I choose it and it wiped out all my bookmarks, my bookmark bar and all. Nothing works to recover, I tired going to previous version. That did not restore my system. I will quit using your product forever if you do not restore my settings.
