Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Hey FredMcD i already did this drill but problem is same i think its some firefox bug if you import more bookmarks its start lagging and animation is slow.. its annoying that was the only reason i switch to other browser like brave or chrome. even thu Microsoft edge is also good these days.

Make sure all software is up to date.

Yes everything is upto date

HI Iqubal Singh

When you wrote "Hey FredMcD i already did this drill" does that mean you tried Firefox Safe Mode as Fred suggested?

Cheers!

The issues you describe can be caused by a problem with the places.sqlite and favicons.sqlite databases in the Firefox profile folder.

• use "Verify Integrity" button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page

If errors are reported with "Verify Integrity", close and restart Firefox and retry.

If "Verify Integrity" cannot repair places.sqlite, rename/remove all places.sqlite and favicons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder. Firefox will rebuild places.sqlite and restore the bookmarks from a recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.

• keep a backup copy of places.sqlite in case a new places.sqlite database has to be created
