I have a new PC, win 10 with Firefox Quantum. My old PC, Win XP, has Firefox ESR 52.9.0.
Part of me setting up the new PC is to import My Favorite Bookmarks and associated Passwords. I have these saved in a folder on the XP machine and on a thumb drive but can't figure out, despite a couple of hours searching, how to import these files to the new Firefox Quantum on the new PC.
Help, in a step by step for dummies answer would be greatly appreciated!!!

Is it possible to disable Typeahead on some pages? Typeahead works great 99% of the time but sometimes it interferes with an interface's keyboard shortcuts, therefore an 'exclude' list would be very handy.
A good example is Google Calendar. I want to use the keyboard shortcut to go to 'Today', which is 't'. Instead this kicks Typeahead off, searching for anything that begins with 't'.

Since updating to Firefox v.62.0.2, I can not log into any sites such as Splinter or Jezebel from their homepages. However, It seems that maybe you can log-in from https://kinja.com/ proper. But even when you can log into from Kinja proper, the notification page is funky and doesn't work like it used to. Prior to this update and how it's supposed to work you're supposed to be able click on a notification and it will navigate your directly to the comment that someone has starred or replied to. That is no longer happening.
What was done that it messed up access and navigation within those sites which use Kinja? Is this a setting we can change on our end to fix this, or is this something Firefox will have to fix? I've found others are having the exact same problem, and have had to switch browsers because of it.

Hello, this seems really weird, but here's my problem: after opening Firefox it starts spamming certutil.exe proceses and loads my CPU to 90%-100% pretty much immideately. It doesn't mater how many tabs are open or what's loaded on them - even opening up single about:preferences tab leads to this behavior. I tried pretty much everything: manualy updating to the latest version, running Firefox in safe mode, completely uninstalling Firefox and deleting all mozilla-related folders in AppData, starting it under new "clean" user profile, rolling back to version 60.0. Nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?

When there is an error during TLS handshake and the site uses HSTS Firefox shows the server's certificate from the TLS handshake only PEM encoded and I have to use additional tools to decode it and see what is going on.
Why does not Firefox show the certificate in a human-readable form? It already has a code to present certificates that way.
Am I missing something or is the PEM encoded certificate really the only form accessible?
--- Example:
Access to Google's web cache was blocked by Cisco Umbrella. The faked certificate required for redirection to a block page was rejected in Firefox and the certificate was shown only in PEM format:
Your connection is not secure
The owner of webcache.googleusercontent.com has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website.
This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that Firefox may only connect to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate.
...
webcache.googleusercontent.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. The server might not be sending the appropriate intermediate certificates. An additional root certificate may need to be imported. Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

Win 7 x64 Home Premium
Firefox 62.0.2 (x64)
Under Add/Remove Programs, there is only one listing for Firefox (Version 62.0.2).
In Windows Explorer, it is only listed under "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
However, under "Set Default Programs," there are two listings for Firefox and they are identical. Both state 'This program has all of its defaults.'
1. What is the fix so that Firefox is only displayed once under 'Set Default Programs?'
2. What is the difference between a program having all of its defaults and a program having 1 out of 2 defaults?

I lost quite a few bookmarks from the last 6-7 months in a couple of folders. There may be more but that's what I've noticed so far. I think this happened a few days ago when it was syncing. I have since uninstalled FF on my Android. I have back ups on both json and HTML. The question though is, do the back ups retain the "description" entered for each bookmark? That's important for me.
Needless to say, I'm confused and kinda livid.

If I delete/close a tab, the corresponding window will close. If I close a window, the corresponding tab closes. If I close the tabbed window, all of the otehr new windows close, but if I try to reopen Firefox I get the Firefox is still running message. Once I click on close, I can reopen Firefox.

This refers to Firefox 62.0 running under Windows 10 Pro.
In older versions of Firefox, one could effectively purge browsing history, either with a manual 'Clear History' command or by using a third-party utility like Ccleaner. Such a purge would clear any history of Websites visited, such that when you began typing-in a URL in the Address Bar, you'd have to type in the whole name; that is, Firefox would not auto-fill-in the rest of the site name after a few telling keystrokes. Of course some, if not all, search engines can be programmed to suggest sites, but in this case we're not talking about that, only what Firefox does all by itself.
Effective with some fairly recent update, it appears that Firefox will remember sites you've visited, regardless of whether you want it to or not. I can clear all history manually through Tools/Options/Privacy & Security/History: Clear History, plus run Ccleaner with all Firefox options checked. Then, even with the Internet temporarily disconnected, as soon as I type 'e' into the Address Bar, Firefox fills-in eBay.com. Same goes for 'a' and Amazon.com, 'g' and Google.com, and all manner of sites I've visited, even if they are not one of the 'usual suspects.' In fact, if I type in a couple of letters, up comes a site I believe I've visited only once.
From a security and privacy standpoint, this is disconcerting. Not that I have anything sinister to hide, but I tried the same thing with Internet Explorer and it does not do this. Evidently all these site visits are stored somewhere on my machine and cannot easily be purged. If I knew what specific file held this information, I could direct Ccleaner there to wipe it, or simply delete that file manually.
I thought this might have something to do with Bookmarks, that Firefox would look among bookmarked site names and suggest those, but I tested that possibility and it's not that. I can begin typing-in the site name of a bookmarked URL and the auto-fill does not function. But other sites I've visited, that are not bookmarked, will populate with a suggestion or two. Please, what can I do?

Hey all.
I am looking to download the Firefox 52 ESR (at least I believe it's supposed to be 52, I dunno if it's 52.0 or one of the later builds) which is said to still work with Windows XP, in the hopes of getting Youtube working again as version 28 works fine on everything BUT that as mentioned here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1234282 , however I am extremely pressed for space on the Primary drive marked C:, which has me worried about downloading and installing a new version onto my primary internal hard drive. However I have two internal hard drives, C and W. Can the ESR be loaded onto a different internal drive (i.e. the W drive), and if so, will it be considered separate from version 28, which is my current version of the program, effectively allowing me to run both versions if I wish to? I know there is supposed to be a way to set up "profiles", which supposedly allow people to run multiple versions of a browser, but I'm not clear on how to do so as I am not a Tech guy. What I would need are pretty much simple, idiot proof instructions, on how to do this, so that I can either have both versions capable of being run, or at least be able to install the new browser to my second internal drive which has ample space to handle everything that the browser requires, space wise.
