Hello there, today was released a new version of firefox. downloading it not only crashed my computer, it also removed all my history and bookmarks. is there any way to revert this?

Hello, I need urgent help. My Firefox browser started acting glitchy, so I restarted my computer. When it came back on, Firefox had lost all my bookmarks and passwords. I've spent 10 hours trying to fix it myself. I've found my old data files on the computer, but I can't get Firefox to use them. Safari works perfectly fine. I need you to remotely access my iMac and recover my Firefox profile with all my passwords and bookmarks.

Went to bed last night & firefox was fine.

Opened it this morning & I don't see my bookmarks. The folders on the toolbar from Africa to Healthcare all say empty. Lottery thru web cameras have links in them that I can see. I I open another tab & go to google, then save that bookmark in the google folder it won't let me yet edit bookmark shows.

If I click edit bookmark it tells me that it's in the google folder already yet when I click on the folder, it says empty..

Ran a virus scan. It was clean. I tried restoring bookmarks from a previous day. Firefox was unable to do it.

What is going on? If the bookmarks are there, why can't I see them?

I've used this browser for years without a problem. Now all the sudden it's one problem after another. I'm ready to jump ship to a different browser.

I'm on version 144.0.2 (64-bit) using Windows 11 Pro.

Every once in a while, my pinned tabs and/or my tab groups disappear. this usually happens after an update, but not always. Sometimes I type a lot of commands, and FF seems to get upset and freezes or goes black. I restart and poof, they're gone. I made a screenshot of my standard pinned tabs so I can restore it from that, which is a nuisance in itself. But the tab groups are gone forever along with the urls I painstakingly researched. I read the answers to two previous queries along these lines, both of which gave extensive, tedious procedures to recover them. I'm not willing to go through all that just to use Firefox. I've switched my tab groups to Edge just to keep them safe and although I prefer not to be captured by Google or Microsoft, am thinking about just switching to either of them.

Over the last couple of updates, FF has seemed less and less stable. I tried the vertical tabs and liked them but the open sidebar on hover stopped working and when the sidebar itself got stuck on open it hid the history and AI sidebars. Plus FF was very slow to open. I reverted to horizontal tabs and now it's faster but still the pins and tab group problems persist.

I'm using it on an HP desktop in Windows 11. Sorry I don't have any screenshots.

Launched this morning and the interface is totally different. That's not the problem All my bookmarks are gone and I'm unable to restore them

Can I move back to the previous version of FF?

Hello i have recently continued the windows 10 extended version and i cannot regain my bookmarks that use to be there. They are not in the back up or the restore options in the bookmarks tab. We have tried to solve this with articles off of the Mozilla website and we have not been able to regain the bookmark access.

Using Firefox on Mac (iOS 15.6.1) - restarted Firefox for updates and it's deleted ALL my bookmarks - what the hell? Everything gone from the toolbar, but I can still see them on my phone?

(This is the last straw of a string of bad experiences with Firefox - I think I'm switching to Chrome if there's no easy solution!)

Hello Team, today suddenly while restarting the PC, I did not close Firefox and restarted it. But when I opened it, a new Firefox appeared in front of me where Password bookmarks are nothing, how can I get them back?

Hello, I reinstalled Firefox and am unable to recover my bookmarks and other data. Before the re-installation, I manually backed up my data, but when I try to restore from the backup, it does not work. All my bookmarks and previous data are still missing. How can I fix this and recover my information?

Hello,

I recently installed a new add-on in Firefox — the one that allows you to create different profiles with individual names and colors in the browser.

After the installation and a subsequent restart of my MacBook Pro, my previously open session windows were not automatically restored when starting Firefox as usual. Instead, a message appeared asking whether I wanted to “restore all session windows.” I clicked “Yes,” but none of my previous windows opened.

Since then, my saved passwords and bookmarks also seem to have disappeared. I suspect that my previous profile may have been overwritten or that a new profile was created.

Could you please let me know if and how I can restore my previous sessions, bookmarks, and passwords? Is there perhaps a way to access my data through a backup or via the sessionstore.jsonlz4 file or an older Firefox profile?

Thank you very much in advance for your assistance.

Kind regards, Diamant Adler
