Moving Firefox over to a new computer, I know how to find the profiles via file manager- that is not my problem. I am not sure which to move, Local or Roaming. I am thinking Roaming as that has all my bookmarks and passwords. I have moved individual files from Roaming and do have bookmarks and passwords working on new computer.

But I was thinking it would be best to move the whole thing so I got the tabs that should be used on startup and maybe more I don't know. So I don't know if I should copy both over or just one. I did try both once and Firefox said it couldn't find profile (I renamed the old ones).

Thinking I may need to use about:profiles and select new one. Not sure what will happen, hope it lets me point to new file on my USB drive. Looks like I should use both local and roaming, but don't know? Local might be something that relates to hardware on computer.

Hope this makes sense?

Since April 5th I have lost spell check in the message pane of the emails I type on outlook.live.com It still works in the subject line, but not the message area.

Windows 10 pro 22H2 updated to end of March, when spell check was still working well. Firefox 137.1 English Canada Language selected (has worked well for years)

I go to outlook.live.com to read and answer my @hotmail.com emails.

When right clicking on a misspelled word in the message area I get only these options, Firefox does not give me the usual options.

I am currently having other problems on that site, clearing outlook.live.com cookies does not clear the problems.

Last few days I've been getting this popup:

Attention!!! Click to turn on the antivirus

or

Attention!!! Click to scan the device

obviously some phishing or something. How can I get rid of it?

Since one of your updates, all of my photo files now have your logo on them and I can see any of the thousands of photos I have What the hell did you put in your update? JUST STOP SENDING UPDATES EVERY DAMN TIME I TURN AROUND.

In trying to access (log in)Social Security Administration, I received "Bad Request""your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header exceeds server limit" I was able to log in with Chrome. Can this be corrected by mozzilla?

I suddenly started getting a flood of messages informing me of various security risks and that i needed to click a link to sort this out. Needless to say, I DID NOT click any links. I am only getting these messages when I open Firefox. The messages all link to "securebotshield.co.in". I ran Malwarebytes but it does not pick up anything. I am running the latest version of Firefox on a Windows 11 machine. Please can you help me get rid of this menace?

Thanks

With respect to problem of latest FF update interfering with spell check on outlook mail, am i okay to assume that FF will fix this problem soon and just wait until they do that? There has been suggested a work-around remedy but since i am computer-challenge i prefer to wait and let FF do Its Job as it has done so wonderfully in past as i have used it for decades.

non my my bookmarks and passwords are on my firefox and i reformatted my pc, i have never had a issue like this ever, and yes im signed into the same email i have always used and didnt do anything different

I would like to change my primary email on the account and my profile shows that there is currently no secondary email. I keep inputting a secondary email address that I could then reset to be the primary but Firefox keeps responding that the proposed secondary email is already confirmed by another user.

The proposed secondary email is under my full control and it would not be confirmed as a secondary email for anyone else. While attempting to solve this mystery, I did attempt to sign in under the proposed secondary email. I thought that if I were successful, I could close out that account. Unfortunately, while it appeared to accept the email address and a password saved on my hard drive, I also received an error message that said that I needed to sign in under the primary email.

The purpose for all of this is that I am changing to a new computer, will want to operate it without the old primary email address, and want all of my settings and history from the old computer to transfer over. Please advise. Thanks.

Firefox crashed. I am trying to get it to how I had it before this. One of the problems is the new tabs thing. I know about CTRL-T, I have not used it. I have used the + on the tabs for years. I know, big deal, it's just inconvenient, interrupts my train of thought to switch, which is no big deal. But if anyone has a moment and can answer, it would be a blessing for me. Thank you.

You publish AAAA DNS records for accounts.firefox.com, which I can reach from my IPv6-only environment, but the content of that page tries to load content from cdn.accounts.firefox.com which DOES NOT have AAAA DNS records and therefore I am unable to actually log in to my account. I applaud you for making the effort to support IPv6, but it's only half-working when not all parts of the supply chain are dual-stack enabled. Anything that you can do to rectify this situation would be most appreciated. Thanks for your attention and consideration.

I downloaded an extension and can't do anything with it. There is no way for me to open it, all I can do is open up my extensions to see it then change permissions or delete it. It won't appear on my toolbar with other extensions. I've seen others ask this question and the solutions dont apply to me. People are being told to either right click and click pin to toolbar or to click the gear icon next to the extension and then pin to toolbar as well. I have no gear icon next to extensions and right clicking an extension treats it like a link. There is a gear at the top that when I click it I can click "manage extension shortcuts" only for it to then pretend none of my extensions have shortcuts even though 2 of them are right there in my toolbar. The 3rd 1 mozilla seem to not want me to have on my toolbar.

Just "upgraded" from W10 to W11 and experienced a loss of bookmarks in my Firefox web browser this AM. Happened immediately after the first W11 auto update (I have no idea what it was about, but it last some time). I am given to understand from the in-line Firefox troubleshooting material that our bookmarks and preferences are saved in our profiles. Even after having followed their instructions, however, and after having opened my profile, I can find a way to access bookmarks, or anything, really. And I have followed all of the Firefox recovery tips and instructions, but to no avail. Can any one give an old fool a hand with this?
