Firefox deleted many folders in my bookmarks file. Then, trying to straighten this out, Firefox has completely changed its home page layout and I can not manage it even in the simplest way. I want to restore everything to how it was two or three days ago.

I've spent more than half of today trying---once again, after you must have done some "update"---to restore my many bookmarks, including the bookmarks menu. I HATE THIS FAR TOO FREQUENT WASTE OF MY TIME!!!!!!

Have tried all of your "tips" online for fixing this and this time NOTHING works. Damn it---fix this and quit doing this to us!! Have rebooted -- in Safe Mode -- several times. Can't find anything in a profile that gives you permission to screw me over like this so much.

Import from my html file gets no response. Restore with my JSON file gets no response.

Please quit wasting my time every couple months!!!!!! This is soooooo fgrustrating.

The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem.

My bookmarks suddenly disappeared. I tried to use the troubleshooting guide for "My Bookmarks have Disappeared" bold textbut when I click on <Manage Bookmarks> step nothing happens. Also, when I click on the star to make a bookmark, nothing happens.

I retired an older desktop unit several months ago and am no longer able to access the bookmarks associated with my account. My profile information now says account disconnected, followed by my email address. Below that the words Profile 1 appear. The menu below is the regular menu for actions on Firefox but none of the bookmarks from the original computer appear. Is there some way to access them?

Over the last 5 or 6 months, Firefox seems to have lost the capacity to remember my open tabs if my Mac is forced to restart. These open tabs are vital to my workflow. If this can't be solved, I shall have to migrate to another browser, which is something I do not wish to do.

My Firefox version is 147.0.4; my computer a Mac Studio 2025 M3 Ultra; my OS Tahoe 26.3.

Please advise.

Subject: Urgent Complaint: Complete loss of passwords following browser update – Priority: High

Dear Support Team,

I am writing to you today to file an urgent complaint and to request immediate technical assistance.

Following today's update of your browser, I discovered that all passwords stored in my account have been deleted. As I strictly depend on this account and the stored credentials for my daily work, this loss of data constitutes a significant disruption.

My previous attempts to recover the data via standard recovery functions have unfortunately been unsuccessful.

I therefore request your immediate assistance in restoring my data. Ideally, a rollback of my profile to a backup state from this morning, February 25, 2026, at approximately 08:30 AM, is required to restore the state prior to the faulty update.

Please inform me immediately of the steps you are taking to resolve this issue. Due to the urgency of this matter, I look forward to your response within the next few hours.

Sincerely,
