"Restore session" restored tabs from 6 months ago and deleted all recent history since that point, assuming it to be an update issue

Firefox prompted me to update, I hit download, my entire PC froze, I restarted the computer, when I opened firefox again and hit "restore session" it restored a session that I had opened months ago. When I checked my history, everything after that older session had been deleted. All of my history from the past few months has been deleted. I tried a few different solutions from trying to research the problem, nothing so far has worked. The only thing I have found is a session restore error saying "could not decompress file", but I could not find the file it was attempting to decompress. This is the error message I found.

1785894397652 SessionStore ERROR NotReadableError when reading session file: recovery: NotReadableError: Could not read `C:\Users\ansen\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xpnhovd6.default-release\sessionstore-backups\recovery.jsonlz4': could not decompress file: invalid LZ4 header: wrong magic number: `00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00' (NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED) No traceback available 1785894397756 SessionStore ERROR NotReadableError when reading session file: recoveryBackup: NotReadableError: Could not read `C:\Users\ansen\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xpnhovd6.default-release\sessionstore-backups\recovery.baklz4': could not decompress file: invalid LZ4 header: wrong magic number: `00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00' (NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED) No traceback available

Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm one of those people that tends to have way too many tabs open at once due to poor memory, and losing months of tabs and progress is a huge setback. I'm very desperate to get the history and tabs back.

So far hate new Firefox that I have been forced to switch to - very annoying and such a waste of my time trying to sort out my bookmarks. May make me switch to Edge or something.

Followed the instructions - C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ - found a backup but no information as to how to get the bookmarks into the new Firefox?????

Many of us are older users and perhaps not so savvy as to how to do this.

And so it would have been nice if Firefox could have been more "nice and be specific" with this forced change over.

Thank you

I've tuned in to Firefox this morning to find that I'm kind of shut out, no access to my usual apps, and required to enact some difficult backing up etc. When I explore, it seems to relate to Windows 10 losing its backup from Microsoft. But I'm running Windows 11, not 10. What's going on? Is this legitimate? If so, why is it complicated and why wasn't it forewarned (by Firefox)?

Tab Groups Lost After Crash, Only Old Saved Versions Appear

Hello, I'm experiencing an issue with tab groups in Firefox.

  • I use multiple tab groups in my browser.
  • Normally, if I close the browser (without manually saving the groups), Firefox restores everything exactly as it was when I reopen it including all my tab groups and their current tabs.
  • However, if Firefox crashes while the groups are open, I run into a problem:
 * When I restart Firefox after the crash and try to open my tab groups, all the recent tabs are missing.
 * Instead of restoring the most recent state of the tab groups, Firefox loads an old, manually saved version from the past.
 * Any recent changes to the tab groups are completely lost.

This has happened multiple times now.

    • System Info:**
  • Firefox version: 141.0 (64-bit)
  • OS: Windows 11

I'd appreciate any help or suggestions to prevent this data loss after crashes. Is there a way to make Firefox auto save tab group states more frequently, or restore the most recent session even after a crash?

My FireFox was updated to version 153 and all of my bookmarks are gone. I tried to restore them in Manage Bookmarks. But when i click on 'Import and Backup', then 'Restore', then click on 'choose file' nothing happens. I navigated to the directory "bookmarkbackups" and I can see several backups, one dated 08/06/2026. But how do I get Manage Bookmarks to see that file?

I tried to bookmark a current tab and it does not show up under Bookmarks. why can't I set a new bookmark? Are these issues related?

I'm on Windows 10.

For the Troubleshooting data, I manually open about:support and clicked on 'Copy text to Clipboard'. Then pasted that into the box below.
