What about the rest of your profile? Settings, bookmarks, history, passwords . . . .

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox? Look inside. Look for the folder with the latest creation date.

The desktop folder is not there.

But there was one of those 'drive' icons on my desktop. When I ejected that and restarted Firefox everything was in place as it had been before. I'm not a Luddite, but I'm not a geek either... but I guess the installation wasn't complete... not that anything has changed that I can see from the previous version, now version 67.0.4.

Thanks for answering my call for help..
