Firefox completely changed overnight without notice and I have lost all my bookmarks and can't find out how to access TV channels that were easily available previously on my desktop. Trying to make sense of changes but struggling. Nothing that used to work for me is still available. I don't even recognise it. Might have to give up Firefox.

I run normal firefox on linux. Fully up-to-date. Every time I quit the app, it reverts to a version of my profile from a month ago, and loads all the tabs I had open then, and then receives all the tabs that I sent to the device in the interim (~1 month). As I speak, it just caught the 60 or 70 tabs in this window.
I tried changing the name of my profile folder to randomstring.defaultOLD and changed one of the backups to randomstring.default. This didn't change the behavior. I'm still stuck in the loop. I saved my tabs with onetab, because firefox isn't remembering my session anymore. I thought it was something to do with updates, like it only loses its mind upon updates, but that's not true. It thinks it's updating firefox EVERY TIME, because the one time it's loading to 1 month ago it was updating, but I'm 100% sure there are no updates to firefox in my linux. It's just hallucinating.
The articles on restoring from backup are outdated. They say to use an html file. There is no html file. It's just folders for profiles, not html files. HELP!

recently bought new desktop and upgraded win10 to win11 in the process (preloaded). I found 'places:sqlite' in win10 firefox and copied it to usb drive. How do I copy it to win11 firefox? i.e. where is the folder containing the sqlite file in win11? will copying the file also place the bookmarks in the win10 firefox locations? Will the layout preferences transfer over (hate to be negative, but I hate the win11 firefox interface that was preloaded on the new win11 machine.) thanks for anyhelp.

it looks like mozillo ambushed me, did away with all of my setting I spent years getting where I wanted them and left a folder called Old firefox data on my desk top. how do I make it look and act like the old firefox? I do not want the side bar I want the icons on the same line as the search bar. I want firefox to be my default everything like it was. I hate edge but it seams the only way i could get rid of it was to uninsal firefox and reintal this new pink firefox home page. I want my home page to be foxnews. how do I restore everything from teh old data filke to this confusing new page?

Recently my installation of Firefox (Windows 10, 64 bit) updated. Now my bookmarks are apparently gone--or at least I can't see them. Furthermore, I can't bookmark anything at all, so I don't have the option of laboriously rebuilding my library of bookmarks. I don't know how to recover what I had, or even if I can at all. Nor do I know how to alter settings so I can add new bookmarks. Could someone please assist? Thanks.
This morning I noticed all of my bookmarks and history are gone and I can't figure out how to restore them.

I'm on Windows 11. After I added some plug-ins and extensions to replace the ones that went missing during your last update, my bookmarks also went missing. (They were there before I replaced the plug-ins and extensions.) I followed your instructions on how to access my bookmark back ups, and found them. However, everytime, I tried to install one of the backups, I ended up with no bookmarks at all in Firefox.
Please help, I have no access to any of my accounts!
Thanks,
Charlotte

Almost every time there is an update------it screws up something I rely on. In this case, the sites I have saved under the top search bar have now disappeared. Why?????? And how do I get them back.
I readily admit that I am technically challenged and need clear concise instructions step by step to find them and put them back where I had them.
Why oh why do the buggers making these changes think anyone is going to like them. Leave things that work well ALONE.
