I-Firefox Community Forum

I run normal firefox on linux. Fully up-to-date. Every time I quit the app, it reverts to a version of my profile from a month ago, and loads all the tabs I had open then, and then receives all the tabs that I sent to the device in the interim (~1 month). As I speak, it just caught the 60 or 70 tabs in this window.

I tried changing the name of my profile folder to randomstring.defaultOLD and changed one of the backups to randomstring.default. This didn't change the behavior. I'm still stuck in the loop. I saved my tabs with onetab, because firefox isn't remembering my session anymore. I thought it was something to do with updates, like it only loses its mind upon updates, but that's not true. It thinks it's updating firefox EVERY TIME, because the one time it's loading to 1 month ago it was updating, but I'm 100% sure there are no updates to firefox in my linux. It's just hallucinating.

The articles on restoring from backup are outdated. They say to use an html file. There is no html file. It's just folders for profiles, not html files. HELP!

i accidentally uninstalled Firefox and lost my session, i have Tab Session Manager but it seems that the uninstallation also deleted the saved sessions in there...

can anyone please help?

Home Page desktop bookmarks gone. Recent updates to both my deskyop (win 11) and laptop (win 10+) has erased all my desktop bookmarks. I tried numerous setting in Mozilla but still nothing. How do I get them back ?

I am on Pop OS. I ran some update and restarted and all of my tabs are gone and Firefox is not showing any history of them. I was under the impression that if I had an account it would keep track of the history but there is nothing there. How does this happen and why? Also how can I get my tabs back I am one of those people that has like 50 tabs open So I can run several things at once I never had this issue with goggle but for some reason it happens often with Firefox what gives?

I dont want this profile feature at all it's a complete and total nuisance so I deleted the only profile it had for me but now everything but my bookmarks are gone and I need my settings restored. How do I completely disable this nuisance so I never have to see this annoying color bar in my application menu again? All my settings are destroyed now.

I can't implement the suggested solution

• Open your profile folder: Windows: C:\Users\<YourUser>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile folder>\

because no Mozilla folder is being found

No Firefox folder is being found either.

My laptop did something funky upon booting up. It showed a "Desktop" and then a "Desktop 2", for what that's worth.

Recently downloaded an update to Firefox and installed it. Now it says I have a new recovery key but I can seem to get it to show me the key. There is a link that I found that says: View Recovery Key, but when I click on it, nothing happens. I would have expected that it would have revealed the key and I could then save it for later use if needed.

Yesterday I was able to get into my accounting, video poker, the weather and the couple of others. Now they are gone and some have paid subscriptions. I'm 80+ and have no idea how or what to ask or do to resolve this. I have Windows 11. Please help.
