<p>Mike, Thanks for the heads up on the Firefox update. I will
second the recommendation on DuckDuckGo as the search engine,
helps out a bunch on blocking ads and pop up windows too.</p>

Thanks, I'll give it a shot, I had FF working like a well oiled
machine until the update, that's what irritates me. <br>

<div> 85Hi Guys, Ok after getting my old profile
back I didn't like Firefox 85 at all with all the
tiles and what not, it looked like Windows 10. So
I foolishly deleted Firefox 85 and was hoping to
download 84, which I was happy with. I then
realized I had NO browser. After dredging up and
old computer I was able to download a copy of
Firefox to a memory card and get a browser back on
my computer. Now however it seems that none of the
profiles contain all my bookmarks and passwords.
Like I said before there is a file on my desktop
that is called "old firefox data" is there a way i
can create a new profile to restore my bookmarks
and passwords from that?<br>
<br>
Thanks, Mike<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"> I'm running the
new version (84 or 85) of Firefox...
speed is a LOT better on the new one
(matching or exceeding Chrome on several
benchmarks with far better security) but
it's got some quirks. They are pushing
into using the firefox accounts where
you log into firefox; when I did this I
ended up with my bookmarks showing up
from my home computer (Linux Centos 7)
and my work computer (Winders 10) all
added together. I'm not sure how it's
supposed to work but that's what I ended
up with. This MAY help, but it could
have also been a Microsoft update
(meaning MS blew some things away for
"security reasons").</p>
