So I just upgraded my pc and it bricked my windows and to reinstall, I forgot to save the Firefox data before doing so because I thought it wouldn't cause any issue, well, now all my bookmarks etc. are gone and I'm wondering if there is some sort of backup somewhere saved by Mozilla in the cloud.

My PC was just updated to Firefox 153 and since the app seems to freeze regularly - particularly when accessing (older) silly games such as Bubble Pet Saga - a simplistic CBC game. https://www.cbc.ca/kids/games/play/bubble-pet-saga

I run Windows 10 on an older HP

Thanks Jim

My Firefox account data seem to have ben ALL deleted after a regular computer restart. There are no backups in the Firefox profile folder either. Years worth of passwords, bookmarks, tabs ALL GONE. After computer restart, when I was restarting Firefox, I vaguely remember a prompt on the screen that Firefox servers don't contain any data for my profile anymore. How could this have been brought on by a computer restart though?Any ideas what is the problem here, and how to recover my profile data? Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

I've downloaded the Firefox-recommended "search by image" extension. I can't figure out how to actually use it. Watched several videos, but none of those included the "how to use it" aspect.

If someone has time to respond to this, I'll very much appreciate detail and completeness - I'm afraid I'm not very intuitive.

Thanks in advance

I have this VPN from Switzerland that is stealing my information I have no idea how it got there on Google. I have tried to remove it but can't figure it out. Can you help me please

I have always accessed my LinkedIn account on Firefox. Suddenly today, my PW does not work, and my email address for PW reset does not return a PW reset link. Cleared cache without success. I can access LinkedIn on Chrome. Can you suggest what I have done to my Firefox to cause this? Thanks!

I enjoyed the functionality of the sports widget during the world cup. Are there any plans to make it useful for other sports? is there some kind of API to mess around with to build your own firefox homescreen widgets? I'd love to see MLB schedules/scores/updates populated on the new tab page.

Firefox recently had an update, and now when I am uploading files, I can't double click to upload selected files. I have to first select the file, and then click the open button.

Before the latest Firefox update, I could simply double click on files to upload. This workflow was much faster.

If I go to about:config, and search for: widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker, I can change the value from 0 to 2, and then I can upload files by double clicking. However, then Firefox forgets my last upload location, and always opens in the home folder.

If I set it back to 0, it remembers my last upload location, but I can't double click to open files.

My current Firefox version is 152.0.1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi all, I've been experiencing an issue with the file picker. I'm not sure why, but when a website says "click to upload" and I click it, nothing happens, although drag and drop still works. Also, I can't download anything as when I click "save as" nothing happens? I'm using arch linux and bspwm window manager if that helps. Any help is much appreciated :D

My current version of Firefox is 149.0 (64 bit) Mozilla Firefox for Arch Linux Arch Linux - 1.0 I am running this on two computers, a laptop and a desktop, both running Arch Linux, currently at 6.19.10. I use the laptop much more, and recently noticed that I cannot upload or download files with Firefox. No file selection window opens and the request is simply ignored. Nothing appears in my Downloads folder. Meanwhile, I also noticed that this function works just fine on the desktop computer. I don't remember making any settings changes. I do have popups generally disabled but can enable them for certain sites. In any case, I have tried enabling popups and redirects completely with no change. I figure there must be something different about the settings on these two Firefox installations, but what? What can you tell me? Or ask me? Thanks.
