Thanks Mogrits,<br>
I was able to get Firefox to work again by completely deleting it.
It picked up my original profile by default on the reinstall. I
still have Brave installed on my computer and will continue to play
with it, I'm concerned that Firefox has gotten to big for their
britches.<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
Mike M <br>

<div dir="ltr">Mike you seemed to have privacy concerns earlier.
I'd recommend you try to get used to Brave. I haven't had any
adjustment issues with Brave. It's a little bit different
concept but it works great. Every once in a while you'll run
into a site that won't load because of what it blocks but I
don't see that as a negative.</div>

<div> 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>

<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>
