I am under a disaster with todays mess of firefox, even on chrome now to try here to get some help. I am having to redo my pc OS etc and I am needing to swap over my app data to the temporary backup pc. I know how to do that but it won't even let me start firefox as it is an older version. I install a newer version and that is one of the new version disasters I hate. I have no time to figure out how to make it look to where it is usable. I got the old pc running and found the version it had. I install that, which is an esr but it still gives me the same problem. I need my firefox working so I can use it with my original tabs and bookmarks. Or you can be like some and tell me to just go elsewhere as a fix for the mess which is todays firefox. I used to have about zero of these kind of problems. How do I get myself to my original setup on the temp pc?

When I used the ffox site for the version I had been using 91.7.1 it did not give me that it was some update and maybe that is part of the problem. I got the true 91.7.1 and now it gives me the Your profile cannot be loaded error. I have pulled the profiles folder directly from the working pc after shutting down ffox. How do I get this to work with my old tabs and bookmarks intact? I would rather not do some later version unless I have to. It seems funny the esr still updates, but I hope the esr is at least staying with the same appearance as I am tired of the regular changes, all not to my liking at all.
