Hi Phil, I tried Brave, like Mogrits suggested, but just didn't care
for how it worked. I'm just too set in my ways. Tried Chrome, and
although it's different than Firefox, the learning curve is shorter,
and it still allowed me to us my add blocking extensions. I'll be
using that for the foreseeable future. Avoid Firefox 85 like the
plague. <br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Mike M<br>

<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>

<div>
<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>
