I have spent the last half hour searching with Google and on Muzila help – everywhere that I can possibly think of and every combination of words and every hit I get that supposedly is the instructions on how to recover sync by entering my account recovery key NEVER leads to a page where I can enter my account recovery key.

HELP!

Thanks!

Good afternoon

Copied Firefox profile in W10

Pasting into Profiles folder in W11 but it won't let me do it. See attached.

I have enabled LongPaths in the registry but that hasn't solved the problem.

Please advise Michael

I've lost everything in bookmarks. The toolbar. The general bookmarks. Everything. Could this be because I tried to download Claude on my new mac mini. Help please. We only use firefox. All the time!

I have 100's of bookmarked sites from over 10 years ago, you're new update lost all of them!! I never did a backup becuase this has never happened before. I'm panicking as I need all that information ASAP. Please help.

Hello, I never sign into my account when browsing but I've had bookmarks for years. This last update, they all disappeared. I read about profiles and looked at them but it is gone.

I signed into my account new and still no bookmarks. Is there anything else to do or they are gone?

Interesting that Microsoft updated also and my documents folder is no longer linked with the My Documents icon. I have to go to the C drive to find users and then my documents. I don't know if that's related.

I guess I have to stay signed in so Mozilla can track me.

Thanks, David

I've been backing up my opened tabs for the past 4 or 5 years with the steps in this legendary post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1257866

But this time it failed me and I don't know why. I just switched from Debian to Linux Mint, put everything up to date, but when I copy the sessions-store folder back into my session folder, as described in the post, nothing happens. I tried restoring only the 2 files listed there, and also dropping them in the general user folder, outside sessions-store, but still nothing. I've also noticed that the sessions-store folder isn't created automatically, even if I open a bunch of new tabs now and close the browser.

I don't even know how to begin troubleshooting this to be honest, this is the first time this method's ever failed me :(

I also saw this post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-restore-browsing-session-backup But it doesn't help either.

I was using Clean My Mac and it recommended that I clean some files that Firefox was using. I did not realize that one of them was my password file. I rely heavily on Firefox to fill in passwords. Is there anyway to recover the file? I do have Time Machine backups on my MacBook.

Restarted Firefox (W10 PC) and all of my history and bookmarks are gone. The subdirectory is present but EMPTY.

In addition Firefox is not recording ANY history and will not accept ANY bookmarks. The bookmark button simply does not work.

Hi, it looks like Firefox pushed an update on September 19, and after that, all my tabs were closed, I got logged out of all my accounts, and it opened a new blank Firefox window. Is there any way to recover my tabs and data?

my desktop has changed i used to have buttons to access frequently used sites appear when i open firefox and now i don't, what happened and how do i get that back, in addition all my booklmarks have disapeared how can i get it back

On the page https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-restore-browsing-session-backup , I'm flummoxed by the meaning of bullet point 10. It reads: "Copy your chosen file into the main profile folder. (Not the original sessionstore-backups folder, but the one above it.)"

What does 'above' mean here? Copy it into the folder that holds the original 'sessionstore-backup' folder? Seems an odd thing to do, given that there is no file with a similar name sitting loose within the Profile.

And I have tried that and it doesn't seem to work. Just want to check I'm reading this correctly before I persist. Thanks

I need to recover a `.jsonlz4` file to restore a Firefox session with 8 active instances, as the "Restore Session" feature only opened 5 due to the `browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo` setting being capped at 5, and the full original `.jsonlz4` file is now missing.

In the`firefox/Crash Reports` directory, there are numerous files I can’t interpret, can I retrieve my session data via telemetry or other methods using this crash information. I’m using Linux Mint with Flatpak Firefox, and I also have crash logs containing a "last crash" text file and a string of numbers, could these be useful for getting back my session?
