In Windows 11, how do I add the Firefox icon to the extreme top left of its webpages?

When I switch tabs to Firefox, typically using Alt+Tab, I am often unsure at first which program I am in. I have searched Firefox settings, and googled extensively, and there seems to be no way to add the icon back. I believe that it was once there, but I am unsure of this.

Almost every other program places its icon on the top left of its pages. Surely it is possible to do the same in Firefox, which just has an empty space there.

(But I am wrong on the last point, because Edge, which I rarely use, also has no icon there. Surely Firefox does not want to share any problem that Edge has!)

I followed the advise and removed all the profiles from my laptop. (Copies are on an external hard drive.) And I used the download file from the Mozilla community site which is 490 KB versus the 375 KB download file from firefox.com just in case the smaller file was corrupted. But I still got the Profile Missing error message.

I am trying to simulate a laptop that has never used Firefox and so can't say that "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded.  It may be missing or inaccessible."  I uninstalled Firefox using the Installed Apps page. Can there be fragments of Firefox that I need to hunt down and remove? I also removed the Old Firefox Data folder from the desktop.

How can I successfully install Firefox? Then I will use my old profiles that contain all my bookmarks.

I’ve been using Firefox for months without manually creating a profile (I assume one is created by default). I had a lot of bookmarks, and today I accidentally created a profile manually, but then deleted it after noticing it didn’t have my bookmarks. Now, even after deleting it, I still don’t have my bookmarks, and Firefox keeps creating profiles for me. I checked backup files, but I can’t find anything, or maybe I don’t even know which folder I’m supposed to look in. My browsing history is gone, and I think I also lost my saved passwords or usernames for websites I used.

I’ve already tried using firefox.exe -P and checking %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\, but my bookmarks aren’t in either of those folders (.default or .default-release). Honestly, I really don’t want to believe I could have lost everything that easily.

I even used Recuva to try recovering files like places.sqlite and checked the bookmarks folders in the only two directories where those files existed, but it was pointless. Honestly, I still don’t even understand how everything got deleted just from manually creating a profile. I really didn’t expect something like this to happen.

since v150 came out ive been having an issue where i get a flash of white on start up if i have Homepage and new windows as Firefox home with a wallpaper... i have re-installed firefox and tested it as default and it still happens. seems the wallpapers have a delay till it displays properly.

Hi all,

Firefox 140.10.2esr Windows 11

Opened Firefox this morning and it said I was using an old version of Firefox and it couldn't load my profile. I have always used the esr version.

I had a look at the compatibility.ini file under my profile and it had version 150.xx. Is that a bug with the last update?

To recover I backed up my profile then changed the compatibility version to the version of Firefox I am using. I was able to load my profile and while all my bookmarks and settings are there, my saved credentials are not. The key4.db and logins.json file are both still under my profile folder, they just don't seem to be recognised; no errors. Viewing the logins.json shows my encrypted credentials.

Does anyone know what is going on and how to resolve?

thanks

Download arrow shows 5 recently added downloads. Clicking on the folder Icon next to the file does nothing. I cannot open file location. I tried Troubleshooting mode, didn't help. I have totally removed FireFox using Revo Uninstaller Pro and reinstalled with no avail. What's next?

After the last Firefox Update, I can no longer log into my healthcare website. It loads login screen, enter information and it fails to redirect, returning to login screen. mymercy.net works fine with Edge and Chrome. But I have Firefox set as my default to switching is a pain! I have cleared everything.. reloaded firefox and it still does the same. Tried it with 3 different computers with the same result, so there is something about the new update that mymercy.net doesn't like. any suggestions?

Hello there.

Since last update i'm unable to browse websites like youtube, social media and all other websites with video content. Video often fails to load,the wholewebsite is not loading, freezes while played or while exiting full screen mode. All of these freezes the browser - the site cannot be refreshed, links does not work. The only way is to close the tab with the freezed page or kill the Firefox process in windows Task Manager. Refreshing, re-installing, deleting or using different profile don't work. Same with add-ons. Seems like the issue lies within the browser and it started to appear since last update.

Never before problem with my Windows 11 Desktop frequently shows an incorrect location. Firefox shows my location as Parkdale, Victoria. Australia and not my correct Florida location. This is a recent Firefox issue. Location is correct in Edge and Chrome. Location is correct on my Iphone and Ipad. A new install of Firefox on a second Windows 11 PC also shows the incorrect Australia location. Changing proxy settings makes no difference. A clean install of Firefox made no difference. Changing browser made no difference. This is a recent problem and unique to Firefox. Thanks

I cannot log in to Amazon.ca using Firefox. When I input my email address to Amazon, it says I look like a new customer so let's set up an account. I am not a new customer and my account on Amazon works fine if I sign in through the Chrome browser. I have tried refreshing Firefox and also tried using Troubleshoot Mode, but the problem with Firefox persists. Is there a fix? Firefox must be blocking some type of data that Amazon requires but even white-listing the website doesn't seem to work.

Best topic is covered by all of the options, unfortunately! If I have done anything incorrectly it was done thru lack of tech savvy for which I apologize for. I have to go take care of the horses now, thank you for any help you may have.
