I logged into my Firefox Sync account last week on a newly re-imaged computer. My old computer is listed under "Connected Services" and for the first few days, when I selected "Sync" from the top right menu, the subsequent menu included the name of the the old computer and the list of tabs. That list of tabs is no longer listed and I haven't been able to find a way to access it. Attached is an image of the menu where the list of tabs was previously listed. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I think it may be the result of one of the latest Windows updates. I checked the Firefox tabs settings from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/tab-preferences-and-settings#:~:text=Review%20and%20change%20tab%20settings,correctly%20at%20a%20specific%20size. and they're correct. What am I missing?

It used to show how big and extension was when you would look at that extension, like how many MB it is. Now that is gone and it is almost impossible to find out how much space the add on is taking. Most of these add ons don't have the information even on their websites. What gives? Can we bring this back please? These things are important to know!

This is a suggestion on how to delete Bookmarks Unfortunately when backing up bookmarks, then restoring them, this results in many duplications. To be effective there should at least be an option whether or not to accept a duplication. Otherwise the result, in reality becomes unmanageable.

To overcome much of the effort just select what is superfluous and use the Delete key.

An organized Bookmarks menu (using folders) can really make the Internet a place to find anything later that has value in the moment.

I've been using Library techniques for over 40 years. Microsoft's Favorites were my first introduction. Hopefully FF will tend to be very similar. What now exists is difficult to use in a number of ways.

Hello. Today I updated Firefox to Version 138.0.3 64 bit and I have found that the Search Bookmarks in Bookmarks no longer works where as in Version 138.0.1 it did. I have done a Refresh and it still does not work. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem. Is this a bug or something new with the current update. Could someone tell me how to solve this a using the Search Bookmarks function was a big help. Thank you.

Every other day, I open FireFox and may get the following error: XULRunner - This profile was last used with a newer version of this application. Please create a new profile. Also, this error may come up while I already have had FireFox open for a while. Once this error comes up, I check the version, and sometimes the version is older than what it was, meaning, FireFox reverted back to an older version on it's own. I created a new profile, but the error comes back. I removed FireFox and all folders, and the error still comes back. There is nothing I can do to stop the error from showing up again. See attached images. I am on Windows 11 23H2, all windows updates caught up, and the current FireFox browser version is 138.03.

i am quite pissed. i ve been looking for a possibility to ask for help in german language. though i am logged in to the firefox browser i have been constantly asked to log in or create a profil, switched to different pages or just running in circles. quite kafkaesque.

at last i have somehow found this possibility.

i am using firefox browser for a very long time now on different platforms, all my relevant data is saved within.

lately i have realised, that webpages are not loaded properly. after trying the same on chrome, i ve seen, that everything is working fine there.

last example: https://www.aldi-sued.de/de/hilfe-und-kontakt.html

the chat was loading, and didnt get "loaded". in chrome the chat was accessible in a second.

why does this happen? what can be done, to get firefox working as expected?

I'm giving vertical tabs a try. An issue I have is that when I have enough tabs that I need to scroll through them, when my cursor leaves the sidebar, the list of tabs scrolls to the top. This is not ideal since all new tabs are at the bottom, and I have to scroll back down to switch from one newish tab to the next. The horizontal tab list didn't have this issue, always remembering the position the list of tabs was in. Is there a way to mimic that behaviour? If not, I'm hoping this will suffice as a feature request.

How do I make it where some tabs can be moved to the vertical sidebar while other tabs stay in the horizontal sidebar. Do I have to get an extension for that and if so which do you recommend?

After having created a couple of tab groups with some of the numerous tabs that were already open in my browser (Firefox, of course) and then closing and reopening the browser shortly after, no tabs at all reopened even though this is my normal setting for Firefox: open all previous tabs when opening firefox. This setting had always worked before - as it does now with the new tabs. However, all my previous tabs as well as the freshly created groups have vanished. Do you have an explanation and ideally a way of recovering the tabs - or the groups at least? Thank you very much. Kind regards, Kerstin

Tabs can take up a lot of space, 1-2 gigabytes if you don't watch. That really slows down the browser. Seems to me that merging tabs will, if you aren't careful, seriously slow the computer. Comments?

Good Afternoon

I have exhausted all possible restrictions for Fire Fox to sync with McAfee I have gone to Windows Firewall the inbound rule is blocked if rules don't apply Fire Fox and McAfee are both enabled on my personal computer as private The McAfee keeps showing a setup window for both Googles and Fire Fox At one time all 3 of my browsers were setup and then it drops as a change in default browser is selected
