How can I return 'Default' Firefox (topic: config) without losing all my modules and Persona settings?
I changed a couple of parameter in previous versions, to speed things up. These parameters have been "inherited" from version 6.x which I think has more need.
I want to return my Firefox settings by default, (processing pipeline, server calls etc) but don't want to lose my Add-ons, Extensions or Persona settings.
Is this possible?
My Firefox will REALLY slow and crashes often

Creating a profile will return all of your default settings of Extension/add-ons, you will need to re - install the Extensions/additional custom modules in the new profile
Most of the settings that you have probably set different values are in about: config, then filter = network.http (I watch 24 elements in Firefox 6, all with the 'status' = default)
- Those that are displayed in the lower panel in fat and as a user set are items that have been modified by you and/or an extension/add-on.
- You can right-click on these elements, in your case those typically shown as "whole" types and choose "Reset".
- Those who re - appear after restart of Firefox are possibly be changed/added by an Extension; There were / are many extensions to change these settings
- After "Reset", not with an empty value (there should be none in network.http unless you added), will be deleted when you restart Firefox. those are elements that are not the default set of preferences hidden in your version.
- Make a list of what you change hidden preferences (topic: config) so that you can reverse these changes later if needed.
- List of preferences network.http: _ http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox: _FAQs_:_About:config_Entries #Network.
- The list is not entirely current or complete, but is the best we have at this moment
- Do not add new products to your preferences, unless you know what you're doing
- Do not delete all the elements of your preferences, unless you know what you're doing

You can try to reset Firefox.
Reset creates a new profile and attempting to import some settings of the old profile, leaving the old profile intact.
Also check the settings of your security software.
One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

How can I delete my folder "recently changed" without deleting all my files?
Hi I just want to have a clear "recently changed record" so no one can snoop on me? I have curious people around me. Is there a way to clear the record without losing everything? should I highlight all and delete? Thank you.
I'd say just delete the entire contents of the C:\Users\
\searches folder (where the recently modified record is kept). That will NOT delete your files. The above method is better than becaese the list to delete the shortcuts (which has everything in recent xxxxx files) will never updated again.
Delete the contents of the recently modified files will not remove files that their link. -
I want to continue to use Firefox as my default browser. However several sites that I regularly use only support the 'other' browser. Is it possible to identify these non friendly sites and have them open in different browser?

Not really. Some obsolete sites may have a "Better known with Internet Explorer" note somewhere, but even those who might very well work in Firefox.

How can I return to my start page without scrolling through all the links I have open?
In previous versions of Ff, I could go to a menu drop down and go back to my original home page (or another that I had opened) without having to scroll through all the links open back. I can't find a way to do it in 4.0.
You can get the menu drop-down by clicking on the previous/next buttons or now the left key pressed until the list is displayed.
If you want the drop-down arrow, you can add it with the add-on of dropmarker rear - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

To be precise, in the attached vi, I need to set the Mode allocate in the AO Config to ' use FIFO memory (6) ' if the value inside the structure of my case is false and 'no change (0)' if the value inside the strusture case is true.
Create two constants for Mode allocate input (right click > create > constant). A place in the real case of the structure of the case and place it in the case of false.

How can I return to the Firefox 3 version?
Add-ins that are important to me do not work in Firefox 4. How can I revert to the version 3 of Firefox without losing all my settings?
There is an update to the Image toolbar, you can get it from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/image-toolbar
CacheViewer developer has worked on a new version. They created a veta (0. 7 (b) version available from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/cacheviewer/versions , but that only that it lists as compatible with a beta version of Firefox. No guarantee, but it can work with Firefox 4. You can install the add-on Compatibility Reporter extension, which allows you to install extensions that have not yet been marked as compatible with Firefox 4 to test to see if they work - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter - after installation you can install version 0. CacheViewer 7 b to see if it works.

How can I return to 4.0 3.6 I've never had a problem with 3.6 and now 4.0 crashes all the time tell me how to go back
Downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first of all uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option 'remove my Firefox personal data '. If you select this option, it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
Then you can install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your favorite courses, passwords etc.
I recommend, to avoid possible problems with decommissioning, accessing your profile folder and delete the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Delete these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, check their compatibility and cancel the toolbar customizations.
