Every few days, when I start Firefox, my bookmarks load, but they are non-functional, and the logos to the left of each bookmark name are missing. I can restore previous days sessions, but I lose all of my saved log-ins to frequently visited sites. Why is this happening?

I hit the "Clear Private Session" icon, confirm, but then I have to go to:

Open Settings >

Privacy and Security >

Browsing Data >

Clear Browsing Data >

"Everything" (every check box has to be checked) >

Clear.

I have Firefox in permanent Private Browsing only, and Privacy and Security Settings are set to Strict / Do Not Fix any site problems.

Why does Firefox retain browsing site data even after I exit out of Fiirefox completely unles I do all of the above?

I was creating two-factor authentication for my account and when I tried to create a passkey the only options were to use iPhone, iPad, or Android device, or Security key (see screenshot).

There's no option to add the passkey to a password manager (I'm using BitWarden).

I'm using Firefox Version 155.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11 (25H2).

I work for a school district. At some point over the summer, a Firefox update started triggering my districts web filters. The filter says it's connected to Firefox VPN, but I don't have the VPN turned on. After a minute or two, I am able to access the internet normally in Firefox or any other browser.

There must be a setting or something in Firefox that triggers this since I can use any other browser normally, but once I open Firefox, everything on my computer is blocked from internet connectivity until the timeout is over.

The server not found response started right after two changes: 1) Firefox last update 2) opening an account with Mozilla. It usually works on second request but occasionally not. Thanks for your help in advance.

I’m honestly fed up with this issue. **How is this even acceptable?** Every time I update Firefox, or sometimes completely randomly, my entire Firefox profile gets logged out.

And it’s not just my Firefox account. **All the websites and services I’m logged into get logged out as well — including my email accounts and other websites where I have active sessions.** I then have to go through the ridiculous process of logging back into everything again.

This has happened **8 TIMES already.** Eight times! This is not a one-time bug or a minor inconvenience anymore. It is seriously disrupting my work and wasting my time.

I need to know **WHY Firefox keeps doing this** and why an ordinary browser update is apparently capable of destroying all my active login sessions. If this is a bug, it needs to be fixed. If it’s caused by a setting, update, or profile issue, then tell me exactly what is causing it and how to stop it.

I’ve used Firefox expecting it to reliably keep my profile and sessions intact. Having to repeatedly log back into my email accounts and every other website is completely unacceptable.

• • Please don’t just send me a generic “restart Firefox” or “clear your cache” response.** I’ve already dealt with this issue 8 times. I want an actual explanation and a proper solution.

Please take this seriously and investigate what is happening to my profile and login sessions.

Thanks.

I have switched off the "story" but want to get rid of the overlay for this. How can I do this. It is visually offensive to have this big gray blob in the middle of my screen. I have been loyal for firefox because I do not want this kind of intrusion.

i have tried anew profile got a the newest version and it still does not help i guess the people doing the updates have no idea how to fix the issue or care none of you can really help all the idea you have had i have tried and still i get the same Firerfox running but not responding' guess you will force me to go to chrome instead which does not do this nor does Edge so you can not tell me it is not a firebox issue because neither Chrome or hedge with by the way all the same desktop icons i have had for years work

i use firefox as my pdf reader. also tried the new AI beta. now when i try to open a pdf, it opens the AI window! Then I have to ask the AI to find and open my pdf file? this is not efficient. the only way i found to "fix" this was to look at settings for the AI and uncheck the box to have the AI not to load immediately. In other words back to original behavior without the AI? am i missing soomething? where do i send this info? I am not a programmer, i love firefox and just want to use it AND use the new features.

I'm blaming the latest Firefox update from a couple of days ago, since this problem only arose yesterday. Now cut off from reading and following news that I really want to receive.

This is what I get when trying to access links within a few of the websites that I regularly access for links to articles it posts:

There is seriously something wrong with the way Firefox operates. There is nothing wrong with the following site so why am I seeing this message?

Be careful. Something doesn’t look right.

Firefox spotted a potentially serious security issue with news.sky.com. Someone pretending to be the site could try to steal things like credit card info, passwords, or emails.

news.sky.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site. Advanced What makes the site look dangerous?

The site is set up to allow only secure connections, but there’s a problem with the site’s certificate. It’s possible that a bad actor is trying to impersonate the site. Sites use certificates issued by a certificate authority to prove they’re really who they say they are. Firefox doesn’t trust this site because its certificate isn’t valid for news.sky.com. The certificate is only valid for: . What can you do about it?

I'm using Firefox since 2013. Whenever I reset windows I always keep a copy of my profile folder. You can check the attachment. There is 83 copies of backup.

About my email address linked to Firefox [redacted] @ovi.com, Account Disconnected, Sync is off. Sign In to synch hit the OTP wall and OVI email is discontinued. Here is important details: "Nokia Mail powered by Yahoo was discontinued in March 2015. Beginning in March 2015, users were no longer able to sign in, access their existing emails, or send and receive new messages using their Nokia Mail or Nokia Chat address. If they want to save their existing emails, they must copy their existing Nokia Mail to another email service or to their computer before March 2015" Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovi_(Nokia)#Ovi_Mail

Microsoft offered migration to their Microsoft account to keep backup of [redacted] @ovi.com to their [redacted] @live.com. Any email sent to [redacted] @ovi.com doesn't reach to anyone, it is discontinued. [redacted] @live.com is currently active and maximum internet accounts are linked to [redacted] @live.com.

Also you can match my profile photo from Facebook and LinkedIn. Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ [redacted] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/ [redacted]

If you need any further information regarding this issue, like any old OVI email or any further information, I am willing to provide them. I just want to replace [redacted] @ovi.com to [redacted] @live.com that's all.

Thanks for reading. Looking forward for a solution.

Current firefox version: 155.0

Since the last few updates, update frequency of title bar of inactive tabs slows down over time. Sometimes there is important info in title bar that should be updated frequently. Are there any flags in about:config that can be reverted to achieve that?
