So every time the browser crashed or a blackout happens and it forced closed (sometimes the browser is closed normally and it still happens) the next time i start the browser it would show the restore session page. Pressing the restore session would just restore the open tabs and not the tab groups. Because of this i would need to go to the file manager, copy the previous.json and change it to replace the sessionstore. it's kinda annoying. is this problem just me or is this a known issue? also how to fix.

Can you recover lists of my passwords from firefox after my computer was purged from viruses?

My desktop computer was infected with malware when I was called by a man supposedly from Paypal stating that I has been erroneously charged with over $600 of merchandise and he wanted to get information to refund the money to me. I gave him information (sadly) to enter my computer outfitted with Firefox running on Windows 11. After consulting my bank, they said that there was no way for Paypal to refund the money as he wished to do. Apparently he was infecting my computer while we spoke. I realized that is was a scam shortly after I hung up and shut the computer off. The next morning I took it to our local tech center and they 'cleaned' it. Now I find all of my passwords stored in Firefox are gone. Do you have a way of recovering them?

so i had a bunch of bookmarks saved, and when i logged in today they are gone, replaced with a message For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. manage bookmarks (link)

so when I use the link I cant restore bookmarks, cant seem to save new bookmarks, and the FAQ section isnt helping, some of the stps they talk about are greyed out in my version, so I cant click on them etc.

Is this a windows 10 issue? Am I the only one having this problem?

Hi, there.

After performing the most recent Firefox update, I was greeted with the "create a new profile prompt", rather than having it open my old one. When going to "about:profiles", ALL FILES in the Root Directory of my old, default profile have the same date as the update, or after. Not a single file is older than that and all my history and bookmarks are gone. The option "Restore Previous Session" was not shown after the update.

PLEASE HELP!!

Thank you.

PS: This happened on a Macbook Pro. All other profiles are the same as they were before the update, having kept all history and bookmarks.

Hello and I hope not goodbye, but this seems to be the first time I have come across a Firefox update. Usually a bad update from Windows causes me problems. Why is Firefox updating their browser? Is it as full of weak security!

This has happened several times in the last 4 months or so, it had never happened prior to that and I've used Firefox for years. It now occurs when I open Firefox after my computer has either been shutdown, or the computer does a restart. I am signed in to my Mozilla account.
