I recently downloaded and installed the update to Firefox browser. After installation I find that all my bookmarks (and I mean ALL) are gone. They are gone completely. First time that has happened with an update. Very frustrating!! I had a lot of bookmarks. Lots of music and specific web sites that I frequently use. Now they are gone. Totally disappeared What happened? Is there any chance for recovery. The installation instructions say that I will not lose any data, etc., etc. And I believed it.

Hi all, I'm using Firefox 140.0.4 (64-bit) on Debian Trixie and I'm getting a weird behavior with the auto-complete functionality of the address bar.

If I type the first character the address gets auto filled (see 20250711_First-character-auto-fill-working.png attachment), then if I type the second character the auto filled result disappears (see 20250711_Second-character-auto-fill-NOT-working.png).

I've tried any search option combination, but results doesn't change. At the moment I'm using for the address bar just "Browsing history" (see 20250711_Address-bar-settings.png).

The correct behavior would be, as in the past, that new characters confirming the address would leave things as they are. Do you have any suggestion on how to restore the original behavior?

Many thanks,

Raoul

I had to reset Firefox because of a hack to my FB account. I've recreated all of the icons I use but Gmail won't add since Google doesn't think my desktop is one of my devices. I can receive Gmail if I use Chrome. I've tried reaching Google by leaving messages @ the Freemont office in Seattle but thought maybe Mozilla had an answer. Thanks for listening.

I made the mistake to following Mozilla's advice on why my tabs stopped coming back after I closed out, despite the fact that I had that selected in my settings. Now I'm stuck with an "Old Firefox Data" folder on my desktop and I can't remove it because I need administrator privileges -- but it's my personal PC. WTF

When i browse for anything that has some location, like a restaurant, city, or whatever, there is seemingly no way to access google maps for that site from the page. There used to be mutliple ways to go to google maps for that thing either by a "map" text button in the menu under the search bar, or by clicking the thumbnail of tha map you can see in the right of my example. now i have to go specifically search for maps, then search again for the thing there. Why did you make these changes? and will you ever revert/find a solution for this? Its actually such an annoyance for me as much of the searching i do is for looking up places. and related information about those places. If i am missing some functionality or alternative please let me know.
