Good Morning,

I would appreciate your support if anyone can give me any idea about how to solve this issue as I lost my parameters when restarting Firefox.

Every time that I restart Firefox (115.13.0esr 64-bit), I lose most of my personalized parameters: download recording directory, toolbar customization, etc.

As an example, every time that I restart it, a new download recording directory is again customized related to a folder that I deleted 10 years ago.

I understand that I am doing something wrong or something must be wrongly in my system. Have you ever managed this situation? Could you please be so kind to provide me any guide about how to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance and kind regards, Enric

Recently, my email provider (earthlink.net) has made a security related update requiring all support activities go to portal.earthlink.net. Ever since I registered my account as instructed, when I try to access my support account on earthlink, I am blocked by Cloudflare. I am using Firefox 115.13.0esr on Windows 7. Earthlink support says it's a setting in Firefox that is causing the blockage. When I attempt the same process on Chrome, I am not blocked. Does anyone have an idea what setting in Firefox that could be causing this ? I actually have always avoided Chrome , IE and Edge. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Hopefully you can help. I know this may be a Microsoft issue or question but I'm having trouble in finding a reasonable way to contact them for help. My question is, my computer runs slow, and so I thought I would clean up my files by using the Microsoft disk clean up procedure. I did so. But, my specific question is what is a good number to have when the it says a given number of disk space can be cleaned up? For example, I believe when I first tried to clean the disk it said 5.1 GB of disk space could be cleaned. When I ran the disk clean process and it completed it then said 66 KB of disk space could be cleaned. So how much disk space did I gain or get cleaned up? And, if I can only clean up 66 KB of disk space is that indicative of not really needing to clean the disk any farther? Hopefully some one can help. While this may be a Microsoft issue, I believe the Firefox contributors have enough computer knowledge to help answer my question. At least that is my hope. Thank you.

Everything was fine until about an hour ago. Suddenly over half My tabs quit working. Either the display is weird and all text, or the page is blank, or there is a small "broken image" icon in the upper left... A few tabs are working fine. On X I get a notice saying, "Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com."

I tried turning off tracking (which was NOT "strict!!!"), and that did not fix the problem.

What is going one????

Have issue when using Firefox where my PC internet connection gets disconnected. Running troubleshooting I get "The default gateway is not available" and to resolve it has to reset the network adapter. It occurs regardless if using internal Intel Centrino wireless N 6150 or external TP-link wireless Nano USB Adapter. The trigger is larger data upload... such as running a speed test or on a video meeting. Does not occur while using Chrome on same PC. This PC is running a older Windows 7 OS that I am aware is no longer supported. I am wondering if someone has ever come across this issue and know if there is a fix?

Web pages dont look norma, they look more like an FTO download page. This is an all of a sudden issue. Another notebook, mfg, os, browser all the same, so issue is here on this notebook. Everything displayed fine, last nite, today on start up the issue started. This would include sites like ebay,paypal, youtube,, etc. Going to the browser address, pasting it into Google cheome browser, the sites display properly. This is why I keep a second vrowser. Tried the normal cleaning, cache, ccleaner+bleach it+firefox clear data, same bad display. I have grup speed dial extension, with numerous links. I would not be pleased to lose and have to rebuild them if an uninstal/ewinstall is an answer. This is an win7pro os. The image is ow pages load, this is ebay. Suggestions?

Hi

I need to download Websites automatically via Batch exaktly like the Browser would save them via Strg+S.

I used curl to do that and it worked fine for many years but now the Source-Website has changed and so curl is no longer able to get the content. The problem is that the URL / Website that the Browser downloads does not contain the information. This is loaded later by a java script.

So when I open the URL in the Browser and look at the Source-Code I can see something like

 <script src="/example.js"></script>


When I press Strg+S to save the website the whole site is saved, because the java script was executed by the Browser. Curl does not process java so it saves only the source code with the "<script src="/example.js"></script>"

Question is: How can I download the URL directly with the Java Script executed so that the informaion is included too ?

I hope anybody can answer that.

Thank you.

Hi,

I have the following problem: Windows 7 crashed after coming back from standby. When I restarted Firefox it restored a 3-month-old session. The sessionstore.jsonlz4 file was missing in the profile folder. I searched for a backup in the sessionstore-backups folder; unfortunately all were too old. Windows Restore was not running on my computer.

Using EaseUS Data Recovery I found a recovery.baklz4 file from 10 days ago, tried renaming it etc. but Firefox won't use it for recovering. It is probably corrupt ...

I used https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html but I get an error saying: Session history file contents could not be read?

Is there any way to repair the file or extract the URLs to use them manually?

Or any other solution is very welcome! Thank you very much!
