Regarding FF v157:

- Mozilla have changed the Graphical user interface of Firefox without asking for consent or providing a clear way to revert back to the old interface, yet again. - They have made changes to the settings, so pre-installed search engines can only be toggled off and NOT removed... - There are a bunch of themes now pre-installed that can't be removed.

I think pushing a change without over way to revert, is why I a lot of people don't donate to the Mozilla foundation

Last upgrade not stable keep loosing history not able to bookmark pages unless I open a new one ? Thank you for any assistance James Monedero mito4@aol.com

latest update "erased" my bookmarks. Ive followed all instructions, no backup file shows when doing Restore directions. Supposed to automatically save last 15 updates but no bookmarks? Where else may it be saved to try manual restore or am I going to have to reenter all I had.

Firefox just updated to version 157.0 and now all of my bookmarks are gone. I export my bookmarks but even when I go to Manage my Bookmarks and try to import the file I saved, clicking Browse button doesn't do anything. What happened to my bookmarks?

Today, October 1st, Firefox was updated on my computer, and I really don’t like the new design. The upper part of the browser is now much brighter and draws too much attention. The tabs also have a more rounded shape. I personally preferred the previous design, where the tabs were rectangular with slightly rounded corners - it looked cleaner and matched the rest of the browser better. I also don’t understand why the active tab is now highlighted so strongly. Previously, the active tab was simply a little lighter than the inactive ones, which felt much more subtle and comfortable. Is there a way to restore the previous design completely - with the gray upper browser area, the previous tab shape, and a less prominent active-tab highlight?

Thanks!

I am trying to login to one of my online banking websites and I am getting this message "Firefox prevented this page from automatically reloading" and when I hit the ALLOW button, nothing happens. I don't know if this related to the latest Firefox update ... but it's a real problem for me. I have to keep switching over to Chrome to login in. Please advise what I need to do?

Enhanced Tracking Protection today specifically broke my browsing X no access , Instagram no access , any regular website google search results link to NO ACCESS BECAUSE Enhanced Tracking Protection supposably makes trouble causing websites to crash ... i never asked for firefox tracking protection NEVER EVER WOULD

I lost all my open tabs with the new update, across all devices.

1. Can we please have a dedicated tab group area somewhere? even if there is no active tab group, just so we know that Firefox knows or not? I saved a bunch of tab groups and all of them are lost across my devices.

2. "Save and close group" makes the entire thing lost. It is nowhere. Not in history either.

Google maps displays a map and then, a few seconds later the map goes black. I found an archive thread called "Google Maps suddenly displaying black" where it is suggested to use ctrl+F5 to bypass the cache. That solution works but then, a few seconds later: Boom, the map goes black.

Seems to me that when the page is refreshed by a script in the map that whatever gets downloaded corrupts the map and then when the refresh occurs, the map goes black.

What ever this "corruption is" Firefox fails to display the content correctly. I have killed my cache, disabled extensions, used troubleshooting mode, switched to the "auto" system theme etc. The key combo is the only way to temporarily recover the map. I should also point out that I see differences in the map UI, it looks like Google updated the UI in maps.

Before the last update the setting for use Adobe Acrobat instead of the Firefox browser printing worked properly. That is a feature badly needed to make possible fine print settings, which are not available in the browser print function. Before, whenever I created a web based print output it automatically opened in Adobe Acrobat and could print from there easily. Now, since the last update, in order to achieve the same print result first I have to print into pdf, download onto my computer as pdf, and then open the pdf automatically in Adobe and make the print. Afterwork is to delete the downloaded, printed file. Can you please let me know how to change settings so to to get back the automatic printing from Adobe Acrobat instead of browser? In settings the default for PDF files is set to Adobe Acrobat, but that does not seem to matter.

Google Docs refuses to open. Whenever I open a Doc, it just says "error reported to Google". Additionally, YouTube is just outright unusable, and the lag is insane. Is there any way to downgrade versions so I can go back to whichever version didn't have this issue?

My old laptop crashed and I don't know how to access my old bookmarks and passwords.

Trying to go through SYNC did NOT help ... still nothing.

I need someone to help me figure this out.
