Trying to bookmark a pdf, it's on the same location across my devices, but my devices have different usernames, so I added "%userprofile%" to the filepath so that it opens on any device. The issue is that when I enter this into the Bookmark URL bar, it automatically sticks "25" next to the % characters, which makes the bookmark unusable.

"C:\Users\%userprofile%\Documents\example.pdf" automatically becomes "file:///C:/Users/%25userprofile%25/Documents/example.pdf"

Also, as I just discovered now when I pasted this URL into this post, a second "25" is inserted, becoming: "file:///C:/Users/%2525userprofile%2525/Documents/example.pdf"

Like many others, I have used Firefox for a long, long time. Today (2/14/2023) is the last straw. I installed the latest upgrade and now my Bookmarks are all gone. When I say all gone, I mean "all gone." There is no backup, no previous dates, no nothing. I tried all the suggested by Firefox in the pages of the website. No help. And this is not an isolated instance. For the past several upgrades, many such issues have occurred with great frequency.

This time, my layouts were gone, my toolbar icons were gone - not even in the "Customize" option. This is ridiculous and it is getting quite tiring. I'm not sure what the criteria is for developers, but it seems like some of the open source resources could be saboteurs even though that sounds far-fetched.

For Mozilla, it boils down to this: either stop this problem so that it doesn't repeat or I (no doubt along with many others) will find it simple enough to relocate to another browser; maybe with fewer features but absolutely with fewer frustrations and difficulties.

I would prefer that Mozilla fix the situation permanently, but I am not averse to seeking simplicity and performance.

I just posted a question re: my pull-down bookmarks menu disappearing. I stated in the question that my bookmarks themselves weren't gone, just the menu. I stand corrected. They are indeed "gone", i.e. completely inaccessible.

The bookmarks are constantly changing to where I can no longer use them. I'll bookmark them to a folder one day and the next day their URL and icon has changed and goes to a totally different site. What's happened? Using Foxfire browser

Hi support team,

I have met this issue twice. Before I retired my old PC, I did click the "sync now". However, when I login in Firefox in my new PC, I found the bookmarks are very very out of date. Because my old PC was formatted, I lost my latest bookmarks in Firefox.

Could you help with this?

For the consideration of th FF user base, perhaps any coders who pass by...

It would help the over-nesting of synced bookmarks on GF Android if a simple icon was added to that little zone on the right of the address/search box. Right next to the tab switcher.

The current interface and procedure to access synced Windows bookmarks on an Android device is really non-intuitive, click-intensive, and overall incredibly frustrating to use. A quick database search here indicates the issue has persisted for years.

The new function of searching bookmarks from the search box is limited unless the user has a phenomenal memory for webpage titles.

FF on Windows allows the placement of folders underneath the search box, which is incredibly convenient. A really useful extension, add-on, or core program revision could at least use an icon to more swiftly access synced bookmarks in the absence of a dedicated bookmarks toolbar.

The avalanche has already started; it is too late for the pebbles to vote.

Why anyone would want import bookmarks and other bookmarks on the toolbar totally eludes me, given both live in the menu area. Can this be fixed in future updates PLEASE.

I downloaded version 101.0.1 and lost most of my bookmark TAGS! These help me find things in my many bookmarks. I've kept version 98.0.1 in my Applications folder (MAC Mojave 10.14.6) and it still has all my TAGS intact. I can't copy / paste or drag and drop them. How can I transfer my bookmarks TAGS?

After the last upgrade my bookmarks disappeared. What happened? Saved passwords too. History too. Also want to add that it is difficult to get support when needed. Maybe I need to go with Safari.

Hi My browser updated to latest version 100.0.1 but all my opened tabs are missing. And what is more important all my sync bookmarks are also gone. I can note restore any of sync data.

I own a mac and had to erase all my data from my computer in order to upgrade to new system. Issue is - the apple support person did not remind me to save down my firefox browser data/bookmarks. Now my mac is updated and it's like a brand new computer. I searched previous forums and apparently firefox automatically saves down your data but I don't see it in the appropriate folder (Old Firefox Data >bookmarkbackups) - I see data from 2016 and 2017. Can I recover these bookmarks?? I had a lot of important ones saved..

This problem has been reported over and over for over 3 years. Why should the solution be to turn off syncing?

In addition to preventing the problem from occurring, Firefox needs to provide a fix to eliminate duplicate bookmarks in bulk.

I KEEP HITTING ALTERNATIVELY :"dismiss" and "delete from history" but some i have to do it 40 0r 50 times before it stops popping back up
