Does Mozilla Firefox Have Vpn

[Shantelle Wenske]

Firefoxsaves your personal information such as bookmarks, passwords and user preferences in a set of files called your profile, which is stored in a separate location from the Firefox program files. You can have multiple Firefox profiles, each containing a separate set of user information. The Profile Manager allows you to create, remove, rename, and switch profiles.

You can have multiple Firefox programs installed in different locations. To start the Profile Manager for a specific Firefox installation, replace firefox.exe in the above instructions with the full path to the Firefox program, enclose that line in quotes, then add a space followed by -P.

If the Profile Manager window still does not open, Firefox may have been running in the background, even though it was not visible. Close all instances of Firefox or restart the computer and then try again.

You will be taken back to the Choose User Profile window or the About Profiles page and the new profile will be listed. When you first start Firefox with the new profile, you will be prompted to sign in to your Mozilla account so that you can sync your data with the new profile (see below).

To copy all of your Firefox data and settings to another Firefox installation (for example, when you get a new computer), you can make a backup of your Firefox profile, then restore it in your new location. For instructions, see Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles.

If you have important information from an old Firefox profile, such as bookmarks, passwords, or user preferences, you can transfer that information to a new Firefox profile by copying the associated files. For instructions, see Recovering important data from an old profile. You can also switch to a previous profile to recover old profile data. See Recover user data missing after Firefox update for details.

I have open half a dozen or so tabs related to one subject. I would like to put them all into one "super tab", such that only the super tab shows as an open tab. Then, by clicking on that tab, it would show the tabs within it, any one or more of which could be selected. Is this possible, and if so how is it done? Perhaps there's an add-on or extension that would do this.

Thanks jscherI decided to try the OneTab addon. So far it seems to do what I want; but it will take some daily working experience to see just how suitable it is. So I'll call the problem solved. I copied and saved the link to the other addon in case this one doesn't work out.

STAY AWAY FROM Onetab and Simple Tab Groups!I tried OneTab hoping it would work out. When I opened it again all my saved tabs (100's) were all gone! In addition, I couldn't recover them using a recovery software!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I just checked out Simple Tab Groups reviews (real reviews are the 1 and 2 star reviews) and they all said the same thing. All tabs were lost after using this add-on. The developers tried to blame everyone else concerning the problem except themselves!

Hi CMSLY, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Do you recall whether your Firefox underwent an unusual event before you lost your data, such as a system crash or a Refresh? The databases that extensions use to store data are subject to corruption, just like Firefox settings files. The most secure storage is bookmark storage because Firefox makes automatic bookmark backups and bookmarks can be shared with another Firefox installation through Firefox Sync.

The Add-ons losing data is not exclusively the add-ons fault. Please read and guide me to create a new support thread about this. This is my first doing anything here.I can't specifically say from which version, but I detected it from version 78 to latest 81.0.2. Before that, I had the same add-ons for a long time. Then I needed a new feature. I downloaded two add-ons. Tab session manager, Tabby. Both worked fine. I shut down my pc at night. Woke up in the morning, the add-ons were not working anymore. It was like, the add-ons manager showed them, they had a place reserved in the top bar, but the icons didn't show. I clicked on the reserved space, a white box appeared where it used to show the add-ons operating area. But there was nothing in it. The saved tab data were gone too. Disabling and enabling the add-on brought it back to a usable state, but the data was gone.I know these add-ons work because they does in Chrome. Also, there are more add-ons I tried during this period that showed the same behavior. What I can think of is happening here is the add-ons are crashing. And since a lot of them are, it must be something with Firefox.
