The tabs and groups do not show up in the History or the Recent tab groups areas. The recently closed windows button is grayed out. and the recovery files from; sessionstore-backups do not contain the tabs. How do i get them back?

I'm not sure if it's Firefox's VPN or the most recent Windows ESU or a combination of the two, but really weird things are happening when I reboot my system and it tries to enter windows via my local account.

I checked AI and it said yes it is highly probable that the combination of Windows ESU and the newly added Firefox VPN is causing your system to act weird. Recent Windows updates have been known to cause conflicts with VPN software, leading to network issues and system stability. I've turned off the VPN in Firefox and the VPN setting in Windows VPN Advanced Options today. I did notice my system appears to struggle when it hits the McAfee program when trying to load the Windows Desktop Screen.

Background: Computer had unexplained shutdowns. Dell tech replaced motherboard and block. Now seems to be working OK.

Problem: I had a small icon on the Navigation Toolbar, not more than an outline. It would delete cookies from a site (generally when I had reached some undefined limit I could then close and return to that website.) This icon may or may not have been a “padlock”. It erased the cookies only from the “active” site. It did not “touch” the logins. I have not been able to recreated this icon or anything that works the same way. In the process of trying to recreate that icon, I apparently have changed how the Firefox Bookmarks Bar works. I used to have 2 rows of Bookmarks Tabs. Each has between 1 and (as many as) 10 Bookmarks. When I start Firefox, all the Bookmarks are fine, but when I select a Bookmark and it opens, all the other Bookmarks disappear. There are only 2 ways to get the Bookmarks back: (1) Close Firefox; (2) Click the left arrow on the Navigation Toolbar (Note: This can be used to “cycle” back and back if any other searching has been done.)

What I want:

    1.)	I want the Bookmarks on the Bookmarks Toolbar to remain and I browse.
    2.)	I would like, if possible, to have an icon that quickly clears cookies in the active site that were added in the active session.

Certain webpages are now enlarged to the point of being unusable. I have not changed any settings in Firefox. Zoom is at the typical 100% and zooming out does not fix the issue. I have attached a screenshot of what this page looks like so you can see. I have tried searching ways to fix this and cannot figure it out. Help is greatly appreciated.

I am using windows 11, after the latest update 149.02 I am unable to log into CIBC (Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce) account it gives me error message 0001 with an exclamation mark on the screen, tried disabling all add on no luck,

no matter what I try to search get error messages . Just started. Have used ESET security and Firefox for years with no issue till now. Did you change something? Don't get errors with MS EDGE.

It seems like on the first search in a session, after the most recent Firefox update, the search window opens a new blank tab that goes nowhere. I have to close the blank tab and search again to get search results. I've tried different search engines.

All of a sudden I can't download files from apps I use all the time... and download files from all the time. I just tried in Edge & I can download just fine. This just happened this morning. I downloaded multiple files yesterday within firefox & the same apps I'm running today.

Since changing profiles, which I regret immensely has created a problem when I want to completely clear all history despite choosing the correct settings under privacy and settings. The only box checked the does not clear is the temporary cache files and pages. Even in the menu bar under history and I choose history and clear all history it does not function. I have to manually uncheck the box and check it again and enter clear. This is frustrating, because this has never happened before. FYI, I do not use the AI feature.

Since firefox 149 was installed on my computers about 5 days ago I have not been able to do the following on my 2 mac computers: 1) open up any groups in facebook, even my own group. I can see the groups on my feed but when I click on the group name a message appears stating the group page is not available. I have no violations, no alerts, I have cleared the cache, I have logged in and out, I have restarted the computer numerous times. Nothing has helped. 2) I can not change my facebook password. The message is "I am using a new devise" but I am using the same devise I always use and have used for many years. 3) I have received the email to verify my account but it does not solve the problem of my being able to change my password or open groups. 4) I can not edit my website that is a weebly/squareup account. the message is "looks like there is a problem with this site, firefox can not connect". 5) on my android phone I can see my own page, my group page and the others groups I am a member of but not the mac os computers.

Have been a Firefox user for many years and have always been able to connect to my NAS with any problem. Today that option has now disappeared and I get the dreaded "Looks like there’s a problem with this site" page. I am a Mac user updated to 26.4. and the latest Firefox update. The NAS is working well and I am able to connect without problem using Safari but I am a Firefox user and do not wish to change. Can anyone offer a solution Thank You
