When I start Firefox, open the application menu, and select Bookmarks, about 50 Bookmarks are displayed under "Recent bookmarks". Many of the bookmarks are not recent. Some are months old and several might be years old.

I've used Firefox for years and only noticed this because I'm trying to help a friend who is having trouble with and old Windows 10 laptop. I installed Firefox 1560.1 (64bit) and added a lot of folders and bookmarks using "Manage bookmarks" or Ctrl-Shift-o. It currently only has 42 bookmarks displayed under "Recent Bookmarks" because I started Rt-clicking and deleting them before I figured that this deletes the bookmark that I had added to a folder in addition to removing it from the Recent bookmark list.

I feel this feature (Recent Bookmarks) totally negates the privacy and security that the Clear Browsing data and Never remember history options USED to give me.

Speakers are not muted. When I play a youtube video in Firefox I don't hear anything but if I play the same video in Chrome it works fine. I really prefer Firefox but I occasionally need to use my browser for Teams meetings and the audio doesn't work.

When I try to backup my browser by going to settings, accounts/sync, press "Turn on backup", select a file, then press "Turn on backup" it gives me the error "We couldn't access your backup folder. Try picking a new location". I've tried on both librewolf (my default browser) and default firefox. I've tried many different directories, including ~/bkp/librewolf, ~, ~/.config/librewolf/librewolf/ke7g2g68.default-default/sessionstore-backups, ~/.config/mozilla/firefox/67ggi7is.default-release-1790353084599 ~/.config/mozilla/firefox/97cgns5q.default-release, ~/.cache/mozilla/firefox/67ggi7is.default-release-1790353084599, etc. All of them give the same error. I've heard that I'm not supposed to run browsers with sudo privileges so I haven't done that. I've never intentionally backed up my files as far as I can remember, so I don't know if this is a recent thing or not, sorry.

system info: -firefox version: 156.0.1 -librewolf version: 156.0.0_1-1 -os: arch linux -kernel version: 7.2.6-arch2-1 -WM: sway 1.12 (Wayland)

Every time I close Firefox, I lose cookies for banking, financial and news access requiring me to go through a lot of effort. re-establishing cookies with painful waste of time, I am hoping a change to the config files will override user settings that delete everything when firefox closes.

Failing that, can you designate which cookies are permanent anywhere in your application?

I start FF in safe-mode. I open a local page which includes only one URL. When I hover on this link I see (`tcpdump`) a DNS lookup being performed for this domain. I followed the suggestions from Mozilla but I still see this.

How do I stop this access.

I use FF "156.0 (64-bit)" on Fedora 44.

TIA
