Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. Make a new profile":
Please also make sure your antivirus is configured for Firefox. Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet and Update McAfee Security Center and firewall settings to allow Firefox access to the Internet
Does the problem occur when you exit Firefox and start it back up? Or does it occur when you shut down and restart Windows? Or is it more random?
Could you check your desktop to see whether you have a folder named Old Firefox Data and, if you do, what's inside it? If Firefox performs a RESET then it moves your settings folder there, but I would be very surprised if you are seeing a reset every couple of days...
It occurs every 3 or 4 days after shutting down and restarting the windows. No folder exists in my desktop with that name. When it restarts all my bookmarks are there but the cache is cleared and I have to set the theme and pin the websites.
If you have Advanced SystemCare or CCleaner, please check their settings to make sure they are not the responsible agent.
I did. Still nothing.
Hi Spiker1700, which of those utility program(s) do you have?
Wise Disk Cleaner, CCleaner, Baidu PC Faster
I haven't used Wise Disk Cleaner but it does include the feature of deleting Firefox history and cache, either manually or as part of a scheduled cleanup. I don't think it would remove your preferences, though.
CCleaner can clear history, cache, cookies, etc., but I don't think it would touch your theme.
Baidu PC Faster can remove browser history, but the description isn't clear enough to know about other browser data.
Does your security software have a browser protection or home page protection feature? That kind of feature might roll back your settings changes to earlier or default values.
I didn't use these apps for a month (while I had this problem). Also they don't have browser protection or home page protection features. I'll wait some more to see it happens again or no!!!
