Is there any way to make Mozilla Firefox automatically rename downloaded files of the same name like on Google Chrome?

When using Google, if I download two files named "unknown" it will save the second as unknown (1) and so on and so forth however when I use FireFix and I attempt to download two files with the same name I will have to type a new file name out and its quit annoying.
Is FireFox just lame like this or is there a work around / fix?

I am in my late 70s and need software that works as advertised. I will not put up with software that requires lots of my time to keep working. I have a FF account for my computer (I do not have or want any other devices). I am getting thoroughly sick of the nag screen in top right corner to the point that if I cant solve this soon I WILL move to another browser. Updating is set to Auto, I have tried the other settings and they still did not help so went back to auto. I have downloaded and installed FF69 but it did not pick up any of my bookmarks etc so is totally useless and now my adblock on FF67 is broken.

I've tried all the solutions I've found in other, similar questions:
Yes, I've turned off blocking for those sites. I've gone through all the cookie domains I can find under Site Information>Cookies, then added those as "Allow" on Preferences>Privacy & Security>Cookies & Site Data>Manage Permissions I've gone to Preferences>Privacy & Security>History, and Private Browsing is not forced, and I checked "Remember browsing and download history" I've gone to Preferences>Privacy & Security>History, checked "Clear history when Firefox closes", UNchecked everything but "Cache", then restarted the browser Under Preferences>Privacy & Security>Cookies & Site Data, "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" is NOT checked
So, have I missed anything? Those two sites are two of my startup tabs, and it's a huge pain to log into them every time. (I also have 2FA turned on everywhere I can, so for Google services it's an extra pain, and I won't be able to log in if I don't have my phone handy.)
Thanks in advance for any help!

Last week in response to a prompt I created a new Firefox account and agreed to sync all of my devices. One of those processes resulted in my losing all bookmarks from my Firefox browser on my laptop.
When I follow the "Restoring from Backups" steps here (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them), under "Restore," only two dates appear -- both from after the date of syncing. So even if Firefox automatically backed up my bookmarks prior to the sync, I can't seem to access them.
Is there any way to find and restore my lost bookmarks?

Hello. Since the last two or three updates, Firefox unloads my tabs automatically. Only the tabs that are opened mainly/principally in other windows (the "front pages" or the highlighted tabs of those windows) will be loaded continuously/permanently. If, let's say, I want to stay logged in on Facebook, I can't if it's opened in a different tab (that's not highlighted) - it will unload automatically as soon as I switch to a different tab (from the same window). This is really frustrating and it does it in Safe Mode too. Thank you for your answers!
Also, since those updates, I had some issues with form auto-filling - saved users and passwords will show on login fields as suggestions, but when I click on them, nothing appears in the fields and they will stay blank. Auto-filling bookmark tags will display the same type of behavior - not working or filling the tag that is firstly suggested from the drop-down list (even if I select the third or the fifth one). This issue diminished since the last update, but it still appears from time to time.
System information & details:
HW: HP 4530s/Intel Core i3-2330M @ 2,20 Ghz & 8 GB of RAM memory;
SW: Windows 10 Pro, version 1803/64-bit; latest version of Firefox.

I just absolutely HATE this latest version. Even though I hate, hate, hate signing in to use any browser, I made an account with the old version that had all of my doggone book marks. Finally it updated without my even saying yes, and even when I sign in they are gone. I do NOT want to have to work so hard to have my bookmarks on a PC. NOT cool, especially when I'm going to be replacing this dinosaur this year and wanted to have my bookmarks available with the new one. TOO MUCH WORK to sync when I prefer incognito. BOO!

I just restored my $HOME/.mozilla folder from a backup (I closed Firefox, moved the old folder away, and the copied the backup folder to the correct location) and I noticed that while my bookmarks, logins, and extensions where correctly restored, all (?) settings from the extensions are lost. I had to reconfigure all custom uBlock origin filter lists, the Cookie Autodelete expression lists, the pwgen settings, and some others.
So to my question: since backing up the profile folder is obviously not enough to restore everything, is there some other folder or file I need to back up to retain the extensions settings on restore? Which one?
Thanks!

Why does the following happen? Firefox 67.0.4
1) In the options menu I have "Block all third party cookies" as the main option.
2) In "Manage permissions" I have blocked both http://google.com as well as https://google.com.
3) I remove all the cookies with the word "google" in them.
4) I do a single google search.
5) Again, I have 6 cookies set by google. :-(
The same thing seems to be happening with twitter and youtube (normally I don't visit either, but I occasionally unsuspectingly click a link taking me there).

I think it is a Firefox issue since every other browser works fine.
Why, with Firefox 67.0 (64-bit), does Thunderbird 60.7.0 (32-bit) ignore the running Firefox instance and starts, instead, the default profile to handle links?

Hi, all.
On Windows 10 Pro (64-bit), I run Firefox (64-bit) and Thunderbird (32-bit), each with two profiles.
Until this afternoon, when Firefox updated to 67.0, clicking on a link in Thunderbird would open a new tab in the currently running instance of Firefox. If Firefox was not running, it would open "Profile 1."
Now, Thunderbird will only open links in my "Profile 1" Firefox. If I have "Profile 2" running, Thunderbird ignores it and starts a new instance of Firefox using "Profile 1." With both instances running, Thunderbird opens a new tab in the "Profile 1" instance.
I updated to Thunderbird 60.7.0 (32-bit), but it did not change the behaviour. So, this seems to be a Firefox change. Is there a way to go back to having the running Firefox instance handle the external launch of links?
This is the behaviour that I want: clicking on a link, anywhere, will open it in a new tab in the currently running Firefox profile, only opening the default profile if Firefox is not yet running.
Thanks in advance!

At the moment there is container feature, but it doesn't really work like how I prefer it to be.
1. A container is limited to a tab, not a Firefox window 2. Something similar to Chrome profile would be great. 3. My current flow is that each window is per profile, meaning that one window is for work, one for personal, etc.
Will Firefox consider this as a future improvement, or Firefox doesn't prefer this kinda of workflow?
