• I have reset firefox and lost all bookmarks. No backups.

  First of all I discovered I could no longer type a web address directly into the address bar and access a site. Then, on the advice of online support, I reset Firefox, and the result was that I lost all my favorites. I tried backup to a recovery point, but it was not good. Help!

  For best results, I wouldn't use Windows System Restore feature. This can lead to mixed files that do not work well together...

  You're low space by chance? Reset feature duplicates a lot of data and sometimes it does not end when the disk space.

  Could you search for your old settings folder in the following two locations:

  • Windows desktop: the folder named "old data of Firefox.
  • Firefox profiles folder: copy the following text and paste it into the search box on the start menu, and then press ENTER:
    
    %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    
    You will certainly find your current (incomplete) record, but there is also an older file (old modified sense just before your reset).

  If you find one of them, recover bookmarks, you can restore a backup by following the steps described in this article: restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer. At the step where you choose file, point you Firefox in this profile folder everywhere where you found it, and then in the folder bookmarkbackups inside.

  You can also save other settings of the folder. This article can help, or for more specific help post-return: recovery of data from an old profile.

  A bit of luck so far?

• I have reset Firefox and now a radio station is playing, and I can't stop it.

  I have reset Firefox and there is now an online audio that I can't stop. This station online window is not open. I tried to open the window of the station, turning on the flow (for then turn it off) and two rivers play at a time.

  It was very good work. Play well.

• I have reset Firefox and now I've lost the Favorites and the custom toolbar.

  I can't restore my custom toolbar. Got back bookmarks by following the instructions found. I can not understand how to restore the toolbar... I go to the "Troubleshooting" information and I click on the "view files", but the only 'local' in my opinion, is not dated before I reset Firefox and I do not understand ' click on Firefox and while it repairs... etc. ". I am pretty good at following instructions, but these baffle me. Help, please!

  I haven't seen that pop up...

  If you want to try to roll back the clock I can describe a procedure to do this. In short, it would be to create a new folder of parameters (a new Firefox profile), deletion of the contents of this folder and copy the contents of your old data from Firefox on the desktop file.

  Does not take long, if you are interested, but then you have to troubleshoot why the old profile was slow. Here's how:

  Resucitating your profile before reset

  (1) create a new Firefox profile:

  Close Firefox and starts in the Profile Manager, as described in this article:

  Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox

  Any time want spending profiles, close Firefox and come back to this dialog box. When you create a new profile, I recommend that you use the suggested default location, not to delete all profiles without first making backups. For quick reference, name the 12 profile so you can easily recognize.

  (2) when you start in the new profile, it is almost empty. Open the profile folder using

  Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

  The bar of Windows Explorer should show a name combining random characters with 12.

  (3) keep this folder open, exit Firefox. Allow a few moments for Firefox complete update of the files in the profile folder. Then delete the contents of the folder new profile. This will leave you with a profile folder 12 vacuum.

  (4) in a separate window, open the folder of old data from Firefox on your desktop. Copy all the data of this file in the profile folder 12 vacuum.

  (5) run Firefox. It is expected to launch in which looks exactly like your discount to zero prior configuration.

  Now on troubleshooting. If Firefox feels slow, I suggest starting with Safe Mode. It is a standard diagnostic tool in order to avoid interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  You can restart Firefox in Mode safe help

  Help > restart with disabled modules

  In the dialog box, click on 'Start mode safe' (not Reset)

  Any difference?

• I have reset firefox and now everything is sitting on my desk. I want to again on my firefox profile, but I do not understand the directions on how to do it.

  Reset did not say I would lose everything--it seemed that most would still be preserved. I do not understand about the creation of the new profile, and copy everything on it. Is there an easier way to do this? I tried to restore my computer hoping that would bring back how it was, but that didn't work. I'm not an expert in computer so need baby steps on it. I have windows 7. Thank you.

  You are welcome

• I have reset firefox have now no menu bar and pressingf alt does not work

  I have reset firefox reported he turned slowly and had other problems at the start. Now, I have no menu bar and the alt button does nothing. Restored to the comp hoping that it can be useful but it did not. Any help would be appreciated.
  TIA.

  Hi, first try restarting Firefox. If this does not work Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

  If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button

    

    click Help

    

    then select restart with disabled modules.

  If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
  • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

  When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start mode safe" - does NOT REFRESH!

  

  If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

• I have malware on Firefox and only on retail sites. Used spybot, reset Firefox and reinstalled. Nothing has worked. What can I do?

  Recently, I have downloaded a virus. On Firefox when I go to any site showroom I am bombarded with pop up ads. Facebook, files PDF and search engines there are no pop ups. I have downloaded and run Spybot, reset Firefox and reinstall Firefox. I tried to use IE and I don't seem to have the same problems. I love Firefox, especially for the using my RSS FEED. I hope you have a solution. BTW, I have an old PC running XP.

  Thank you

• Some of my favorites live reloading is no more, manually or automatically. I tried safe mode and reset Firefox and still have the problem. Repairable?

  I subscribe to 19 Articles in the form of live bookmarks. A few months ago, one of the blogs started not refresh the list of messages. Now a second blog is no longer updated. I tried the dynamic 'Charging bookmark' option (from the book live mark dropdown and since the "Show all bookmarks" menu and it will refresh the list.) If I visit the blog, I get the last commit, but he never shown in the RSS feed. I tried to open Firefox in safe mode to see if the modules are at the origin of the problem and there is no change in the behavior of the stream. I also tried to reset Firefox and it does not work. What else can I try?

  Live bookmarks magically started working again! Had to be something with the blog I was following how I've changed anything recently.

• Hello! I downloaded a plug-in that slow down Firefox, even after that I removed it. I have reset Firefox, during reset my computer went black. Now, it will not be open. Help!

  I downloaded a plugin (module) of Facebook on my toolbar and it made my whole computer run slowly. I disabled the add-on, removed the toolbar, and everything was always super slow. I went troubleshooting and press reset firefox. It was in the process of resetting, and my screen went black. I thought it was just the screensaver, but after pressing the space bar, screen did not return. I have made a difficult exit on my Mac and restarted my computer. On my desk, there are now a record that says "Old Firefox Data". When I try to open firefox I get a message stating "unable to load your firefox profile. It may be missing or inaccessible. I tried to reinstall firefox, for example, to have the same result. Help!

  The name of the file should not be mozilla-bin, but firefox-bin

• Cannot search web sites unless I have reset firefox whenever I want to use firefox

  Whenever I open firefox and try and perform a search on any web site, Firefox stops working unless I have reset firefox. I don't want to do every time, it does specify that when firefox upgraded to 20.0.1

  It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, 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.
