Can't download synced bookmarks to Firefox on a new Windows 11 computer

I got a new Windows 11 Dell XPS laptop computer and installed the latest Firefox (v133) on it. On my old computer, it was supposedly syncing/saving the bookmarks in the Mozilla cloud or somewhere. However when I try "Import" on the bookmarks panel, it only offers to import Microsoft Edge bookmarks. When I follow the help docs on this forum, it says to use the hamburger menu to go to bookmarks and then to "Manage Bookmarks" which took me a while to find since it's at the very far bottom of the Bookmarks window, not near the three menu items at the top. Anyway, it brings up a window with more bookmark items but they all seem to deal with my current computer and installation of Firefox, which has only a very few default bookmarks. I do not see anything related to bookmarks synced with the cloud. I am logged into Mozilla on the new computer. I do not have an HTML backup file available, since I thought that the bookmarks would be backed up to the cloud and I could always get them there. Two questions:

  1. 1: Is it possible to get my old bookmarks from the cloud?
  1. 2: Is the bookmarks have not been exported to an HTML file, is it somehow able to get them from someplace on the C drive of my old computer? I think it should be possible since the bookmarks must be saved somewhere otherwise, how would it know what the bookmarks are for someone who never exported them to an HTML file? My old computer won't boot due to a power surge but I am able to connect it's hard drive to my new computer and see files on it.

Thanks, Mark

When I press a hotkey that involves Ctrl (ie. opening a new Tab via Ctrl+T or closing one via Ctrl+W) Ctrl sometimes remains stuck until I press it again. This will cause issues ie. when I open a new tab and try to type a new address (or search term), and Ctrl causes new hotkeys to be executed.

I've even tried launching firefox with a new profile, and on safe mode (firefox --safe-mode -p <something-else-than-usual>), so no bookmarks, cookies or extensions should be causing this, and it will still happen sometimes. The annoying part is that this seems to be an issue with performance. It happens less-often with the empty profile and safe mode, but it still happens, especially if I had just opened a new page some tab, causing the most minute thing for firefox to process.

The problem is probably not the computer specs either (below my specs). Indeed, from what I can tell, firefox does not even seem to function particularily slow in any case. Just this ctrl being stuck seems to happen.

I have also tried disabling hardware-acceleration (and explicitly enabling it), no effect.

Other interesting facts I've discovered: - This for sure does not happen in other programs and - This does not happen with the Ctrl for all the keybinds within firefox. For example, Ctrl+A (for select all) does not trigger this

From neofetch my setup is OS: Arch Linux x86_64 Host: MS-7C56 1.0 Kernel: 6.12.8-arch1-1 Uptime: 2 hours, 10 mins Packages: 2370 (pacman), 7 (flatpak) Shell: zsh 5.9 Resolution: 3840x2160 DE: labwc:wlroots WM: sway Terminal: alacritty CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (24) @ 4.951GHz GPU: AMD ATI Radeon RX 7900 XT/7900 XTX/7900 GRE/7900M Memory: 5531MiB / 32015MiB

(I have no idea why it's reporting that I'm using Sway, I'm most certainly only using labwc, maybe labwc just reports sway for some programs for compatibility) I've installed firefox from pacman, and my current version is firefox 134.0.1-1

And finally firefox --full-version Mozilla Firefox 134.0.1 20250113214611 20250113214611

I'm not sure what else I could share at this point

I have just got a new laptop and installed everything in relation to Firefox onto it. I have used the Nordpass extension for a couple of years and on the old laptop this is version 5.23.13 updated 16/10/24. On visiting the add-on and extension site today there is only a legacy version 4.33 updated 2y ago which clearly no longer works. Where has it gone. Clearly I am going to ask the same question of Nord, but I hope you can help.

I'm trying to use a script which requires a question mark after the "dot com." I.e., if the url should be http://www.URL.com?custom_URL, it changes it to http://www.URL.com/?custom_URL. How to I keep it from changing the URL - and what is the point of jamming that slash in there in the first place?

This is my second attempt at getting an answer. Can't anyone help me with this?

Running Firefox 133.0.3 on Windows 10 22H2

The last week or so, when I try to download my photos from iCloud, Firefox blocks the download, saying it contains a virus or malware. Of course it does not - it's a zip file of screenshots! Running a scan on the folder once unzipped confirms there is nothing malicious in it. Can you fix that please?

On some websites, such as scratch.mit.edu, the fonts have been displaying as Burbank Big (a font i recently downloaded) instead of the regular font. This happens on other websites that don't use Helvetica Niue as well, so i'm stumped. I checked the styles panel in inspector and it showed the correct names, but when i hovered my cursor over it, it showed a preview of Burbank Big instead. What do i do to fix this?
