My old laptop computer completely died. I installed Firefox on my new computer. However, after signing back into Firefox, my stored passwords and tabs were not available. How do I find/recover saved login passwords and tabs? I am a long-time Firefox user and had a lot of stored information that I assumed would follow my account.

Thank You,

I picked one of the approved Themes; however, after making some moves on the browser, it reverts to the system theme. How do I make the theme I choose stay regardless of the actions that I may take?

Before the new profiles update in Firefox I was using the old version of creating profiles and I want to move that profile into the new profile method. Is that possible?

my account is under [email address] but that is defunct and I can't access it at all. So I can't log in. I can't change to my secondary email which is [email address] Can you help me

On some sites where the text input isn't a proper input box, pressing Back Escape takes me back to the previous page is there anyway to fix this? (for example the wordle page.)

To start, both Windows and Firefox are running latest versions as of now.

I recently found that Firefox had a list of frequent sites being displayed by right-clicking on any of the Firefox tabs in the Windows taskbar. I found that to disable this, I need to use the "browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled" flag in "about:config". Setting this to false indeed disabled this, but it was replaced by "Recent" tabs instead. There is also "browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled" flag but this does not affect whether or not the Recent tabs list is displayed. Nor does "browser.taskbar.lists.enabled", nor does changing the max number of list items.

The closest I can seem to get it to displaying nothing here is to keep the Frequent list active, and set it to a max of "1" item. Anything else displays a long list of Recent items.

I don't think this is correct behaviour for these flags... If anyone has any other ideas here, that'd be great, thanks!

How to keep or restore shortcuts when refreshing firefox?

Whenever I refresh firefox due to malfunctions with firefox I must take a screenshot of my 4 rows of shortcuts and manually re-enter all the information again for all of them otherwise some just reappear all jumbled and many are missing. 

Is there any way for firefox to keep my shortcuts and to restore them after refresh in the order and quantity that they were before?

Its so frustrating that I have to do this every time I do a refresh that it makes refreshing a chore more than a solution for the original problem/s.

No audio on Firefox. Google Chrome has sound. Settings at normal audio volumes. Tried computer shut off and re-boot. Tried reload of Firebox.but that didn't help. Had scam attempt just before no audio issue...not sure if that problem.

I just opened Firefox on my Win 11 pc, and find all my tabs have gone. The setting to reopen last session is active, as before. I think FF updated itself earlier today. I also had occasion to look at it briefly on my synchronised android phone. I would like to: - get my tabs back - find a way to stop this haappening (it's not the first time).

Any advice much appreciated, thanks. Richard

Tried Old Firefox Data and I don't think it's there. I don't see it in about:profiles. I used it yesterday and windows seemed to refresh overnight. When I opened firefox this morning, an old profile came up (as it does sometimes). Usually when this happens, two profiles open and I just close the old one that I don't use. But this time only the old one opened. PLEASE HELP!!!

Each time I open Firefox and type in a search I get a message like something went wrong and I need to verify that I am human. Then I have to go through the pictures and identify the ones with bicycles or motorcycles or Buses. Aggravation which I've never experienced before . I've made Firefox my default browser and I'd like to get rid of the problem. Thank you, any suggestions.
