Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

(not the first time) Mozilla closed all my open tabs... Well, maybe she was sick of the number of them... However, from the magazine, "recently closed tabs" are not restored, even though there is such a function.... And also - I use exclusively portable versions of the fox... When I click on the link, somewhere, in Telegram or on... dating site (joke), they open them, not my beautiful chanterelle, but some faceless dog, that is, firefox, absolutely clean, without themes, without extensions, without bookmarks... Why is it happening?

I already had two separate "old style" profiles, for personal and work browsing. I just created a new profile (from my "old" personal profile) using the new Profile Manager. I managed to import data from my "old" work profile to the new one. In this process, I ended up creating two new work profiles (with different names). Now, I simply cannot delete one of them. Clicking on the delete icon on the profile manager opens the new profile, and I understood I should see a confirmation dialog corresponding to the "about:deleteprofile" URL, but nothing is shown on this case. Also, this new browser instance doesn't show any profile management menu items.

I tried manually removing the profile directory on ~/.mozilla/firefox hoping Firefox would understand it is gone and would automatically get rid of it, but instead it automatically creates a new empty profile on the same directory, and also unmanageable and undeletable.

So, if someone could please tell me how I can get rid of this new bogus profile, I'd be very thankful.

BTW this whole "new" profiles is a cool idea, but IMHO it was launched in a premature state. They are prettier, indeed, but besides the above annoying bug, there are no CLI args to switch directly to a "new" profile or open the new profile manager. This makes it impossible to use apps like Junction which allows you to choose a browser when you try to open a link (which worked just fine with the "old" profiles)

Hello

I want some help please. When I open links from viber or discord, the links open in a new firefox window not the one am using at the time and they open on a no firefox profile window. I don't know what do and how to make the links open in the right firefox window. Maybe you can help me somehow?

I downloaded the new firefox, when i loaded it up it asked me to create a new profile and there was a folder on my desktop called old firefox data. My current issue is that i cant figure out how to load my old data and restore all of the profiles I had and my profiles folder is a mess.

So what I am trying to do is determine how to sort out my profile folder and tell which profile is which without loading them all into firefox. And then I am trying to figure out how i can use the profile manager to manage a few different profiles and when i use that build in manager where are those profile folders supposed to end up.

Can someone help me with potentially very detailed instructions because this situation is insanely frustrating and all I want to do is maintain three different profiles and I feel like that shouldn't be that difficult.

This morning when I started up Firefox it had a pop-up about the new profiles feature, asking to create a new profile. Just out of curiosity I clicked the create profile button to see what the interface would look like. Since I didn't actually want to create the profile I hit the delete button, but nothing happened. So I closed the window. I then tried delete the new profile (then called "Profile 1") by hitting the trash can from the choose profiles screen. Still nothing happens. At this point my original profile window is still open, but I close everything to restart Firefox in hopes that it will allow me to delete this profile I never wanted to begin with.

The Choose profile window comes up, I select original profile and nothing happens. I can open the new "Profile 1", which I have since labelled "Bad Profile".

D:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles doesn't appear to have my original profile anywhere.

I'm deeply concerned this beta feature I never asked for has deleted my original profile when it should have deleted the new profile.
