I am running MacOS 12.3 (Monterey) on a MacMini M1. It has not been able to complete a successful Time Machine backup since April 1st. Prior to April 1st Time Machine backed-up fine. The error message is on the accompanying image. I called Apple Tech Support and they really did not know the causation, though we did tell Time Machine to skip the mentioned file. The back up was then successful.

I, unfortunately, do not remember the version of Firefox, other than esr and that I updated a month or two ago. I am pretty sure the version number was in the 90's. I did update to 91.6 esr tonight.

Thank you.

I opened Private window in Firefox desktop browser for Mac, to login to gmail account. After few minutes of usage, I closed the Private window. When I opened a new Private window the 2nd time and open gmail.com, I could see I am not signed out of the gmail account. This is breach of privacy and highly unacceptable.

Why is my account still logged in, even while using Private window? What if I was using this in a public computer? Utterly scared now of my privacy and security in using Firefox.
