I am running Firefox 65.0.2 in Windows 7 Professional 32-bit. It is 8:16PM on 03/18/2019. The recovery files have timestamps:
03/05/2019 03:09 PM 2,049,220 previous.jsonlz4
03/14/2019 09:36 AM 2,124,762 recovery.baklz4
03/14/2019 09:37 AM 2,124,716 recovery.jsonlz4
Why is Firefox not writing a new file when I open or close a tab? Is there anything I can do right now do get diagnostics on this problem? I believe that tomorrow I may be installing Windows patches and have to reboot, and restarting Firefox will lose all diagnostic data. Thanks.

Hello, I have Firefox 68.0.2 installed on W7. I discovered that since recently network.http.spdy.enabled always reset to false ... tried to solve by following different solutions described on mozilla website ... tried to solve by reinstalling completely firefox software ... tried to solve by deleting completely the Mozilla User Roaming profile ... C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ ... ... but nothing change/fix ... network.http.spdy.enabled is always to false and network.http.spdy.enabled.http2 is always to true with the consequence that google, cloudflare, ... websites are no longer working with http/2. Is that a known issue ? Thank You in advance for your help Best Regards, Vincent

I refreshed my Firefox but the bookmark file the Help Document said would be in the Old Firefox data folder is not there. As you can see in the image I do not have a file called "places.sqlite". I only refreshed Firefox under the indication that I would not lose any of my bookmarks (they would be saved and I could get them back).
I had many bookmarks. Are they lost now?

Firefox cannot play certain Twitter gifs on Windows 7

As far as I can tell, this is mainly a Windows 7 problem. I have done a fair bit of testing with gifs I've made myself, and while I don't exactly know how gif "encoding" or whatever works, it seems to be a problem with how Twitter converts certain gif versions.
If I make a gif with Aseprite 1.2.13-x64 the gifs do not work, and show up as black. However you can still download them as a video, reupload them, and then they work, which is kinda weird but I assume twitter re-converts the videos into something else.
However if I make the same gif with Aseprite 1.2.9 which is at least a year older, they work on Twitter.
I've seen some references about H.264 Level 5.2 not working on Windows 7, and maybe that might be the issue? If so, is there any way to get Level 5.2 media to play on Windows 7? https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1479203#c10
Using MediaInfo to check the files of the videos in question they say that they are using AVC (Main@L5.2) (CABAC / 4 Ref Frames), while the "gifs" (yes I know that they are just videos on Twitter) that DO work are AVC (Main@L5).

After following all the suggestions found by searching video autoplay, Firefox currently still autoplays videos with the sound muted. This is in websites other than those like YouTube, such as news websites and the like. What I REALLY want is to COMPLETELY PREVENT automatic playback of any of these videos, and if necessary, whitelist domains like YouTube to allow autoplay. Is this even feasible?

As of this morning, I cannot get Firefox to work. I am using Windows 7. I click to start firefox and it looks like the program starts. It opens a Window with the minimize, maximize, and close buttons but the window contents are blank and the load icon appears. I can minimize and maximize the window but I cannot end the program. If I use CTRL-ALT-DEL, I can see that firefox.exe is running but I cannot end the task by selecting End Process. If I try to start another instance of Firefox, I get a warning box saying "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window."
Nothing I try will end the process.
I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox but the problem persists. I tried doing a fresh install with all previous add-ons and whatnot ignored but it still won't run. I've tried running it with the anti-virus disabled as well as with Windows in Safe Mode but it won't work.
Any ideas?

Under options, I have Firefox set to restore my previous session when it reopens. Most of the time it does this just fine, but twice this summer it has lost all of my previous tabs. I read about, and found the recovery.jsonlz4 and recovery.baklz4 files, but they include only the tabs from the current session, not any of the former tabs. I often have dozens to hundreds of tabs open, and this is mightily annoying. Any ideas why this happens, how to prevent it in the future, and is there any hope of finding those lost tabs? I'm strongly considering ditching Firefox for another browser.

This is on a Windows 7 Enterprise Lenovo laptop. When I open Firefox, I get a blank tab and after about 15 seconds I get the "Gah! Your tab crashed!". If I restore the tab, the error comes back. If I boot the computer in Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking, it works fine.
I've removed the AV from the system, I've removed and completely deleted all Firefox folder and created a new Windows profile. No change.
I've tried turning off HW acceleration. I'm using the latest version (x64).

I am having a problem logging onto my wifi admin site. For a few years it opened with no problems, but recently all I get is the little spinning cursor on a grey background. The address is http://192.168.0.1/html/home.htm I am using Windows 7 32bit. The same problem has also happened on my Huawei Nova running Android version 7 EMUI Version 5.0.3. I have followed instructions in support, and made the suggested changes in about:config. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. I have also tried Reset. Any suggestions? Thanks Karl

I've had a really odd issue with Firefox that has happened on my Windows 7 Ultimate machine. I can run the exe but it just sits there running in the background but never loads. I can see it in Process Explorer and can attempt to kill it with Process Explorer but it refuses to fully close. When killed it sits as a process that has no stacks visible for it. You can see one loan thread running that appears to be keeping it going without being able to close it.
I've uninstalled it several times and reinstalled but no joy, it continues to behave the same.
Screenshots are of Firefox in its dead process state. Where it appears to still be running yet isn't. Other shots are of it running but not usable. And an odd unsigned .dll is running.

This dirty trick required to move a single bookmark folder from one Firefox profile to another stopped working for me for some reason. I tried different firefox versions, including the one from portableapps.com, I tried starting the second instance with -no-remote switch. Nothing worked. When I tried drag&drop between the instances there was the blue feedback dash indicating the place where the folder was going to be dropped in the target Library window. But nothing happened. I tried holding Ctrl as well, also using Ctrl+C - Ctrl+V key combinations.
Is this a known issue? Has a recent version of Firefox removed this ability?

Hello,
I have been using these products with no issues for as long as I can remember. Yesterday, Firefox started crashing when typing anything in the address bar. I tried to self diagnose and created a new profile. Now that does not happen but it still crashes. I cannot access Add-ons in an attempt to disable them.
Also, Thunderbird crashes when clicking on an email to preview. Then I figured perhaps this is a Mozilla issue so I tried to Open a Tor Browser which uses Firefox Quantum, and guess what? It crashes also.
Could one of the windows updates have caused this? Not sure what to do.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
