When running Firefox on Windows ...

At one time, when clicking "Bookmarks" on the Menu Bar, the second choice on the dropdown used to say "Bookmark this page." Now I see it says "Bookmark current tab."

Looking at some older YouTube instructional videos show that the "page" wording did indeed used to be used.

Does anyone know roughly with what release that change of wording occurred?

(BTW, hovering over the star at the end of the address field does still show the "Bookmark this page" wording.)

So Firefox suddenly and without asking just changed its look into something absolutely... No words can describe level of my disgust, so I wont fill this post by angry ranting.

Is there a way to get the old look back? (preferably without any downloads needed, cos at remote desktops that is not always an option)

Please, don't force me to use Chrome. I hate that browser, but they at least had decency to create skin, which makes it look like Firefox. The normal one, not the new diarrhea all over the screen one.

From last night, when I open Firefox, a blank white screen keeps appearing. Other browsers work fine but whenever I open Firefox this happens. I'm currently running Firefox on safe mode. Any solution other than uninstalling Firefox? The screen is fully white, no close button, nothing. Just plain white.

The latest Firefox update results in incomplete windows. Scroll bars are missing, and the window close/minimize buttons are not visible. Refreshing Firefox sometimes clears the problems, but that is temporary. Sometimes the incomplete windows return. Thought it might be a conflict with another program, but the problem persists when that program was uninstalled.

Google is my default search engine, and my home page always shows the Google search bar. Now that Firefox 89 has been installed, I can't use the Google search bar. When I start to enter a search string in the Google search bar, Firefox switches me to the Firefox address bar, which is annoying. I want to use the address bar for URLs, not searches. How do I disable the address bar for searches?

I don't like the new release, so "downgraded" back to the previous version (88.0.1). The process forced me to create a new profile, and now I have lost all my bookmarks and history. How can I restore them?

I tried myself at about:profiles and chose "Launch profile in new browser" for what I suspect is my old profile. This again forces me to create a new profile, so that I cannot access the old.

I need my bookmarks back! Help very welcome, thanks!

On the subject of changes to the Bookmark function - how can I eliminate the "thumbnail" which is now appearing in Firefox 89 at the top when you click on the 'bookmark current tab' option. I don't need a thumbnail to know what I'm bookmarking - or what the bookmark is - and it takes up a lot of space, which in turn means that I have to scroll down in order to click the 'save' button.

imho it would be a lot more useful to show the past 10 or 12 bookmark folders that were used (as opposed to the 6 we're now seeing) than to see the thumbnail ...

Would appreciate an answer to this ....

I have used Mozilla for years. And years. And I completely agree with the sentiment "Mozilla please stay focused on privacy, speed and functionality". The ui doesn't need to be trendy ....

Aw, dang it. I just installed the new Firefox that was announced today in an email. This is supposed to be "cleaner." Now the tab area and top of the browser window appear to be transparent. I can see what's on my desktop behind the tabs, and everything looks much more cluttered! This is not an improvement AT ALL.

Is there any way to remove the transparency from this area? I'm SO disappointed! I thought this was going to be much easier on my eyes.

I am on Windows 7.

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

Hello -

As I stated in the subject line, "Cannot Stop Updated (Current) Version of Firefox From Diverting Search Engine Search to URL Pane" I have been doting over this for an hour. I have set the respective about:config settings to the recommended setting. (I forget off the top of my head what the string was at the moment) But I did as directed. Refreshed the about:config. Logged off the Firefox browser. Cleared all the caches manually. (i.e., even though I have Firefox to clear everything when I close the browser) Restarted the browser. Problem persists. I DON'T like searching out of the URL pane! I like it like it has ALWAYS been prior: Using the search engine (I currently am using Google) search pane.

I have added NO browser extensions to cause this either by the way.

New release, new problems... FF 89.0/StartPage

I don't want the search field jumping up to the URL bar when I begin typing in the middle of the screen search field !

I want the URL bar to do just the URL...

Not impressed at all with semi-transparent tabs and tweaked interface colors.
