    Firefox does not show a particular link symbol


    After the recent update of Firefox, something has changed.
    Accessing my router, a particular window shows a symbol/pictue, which link directs to another window in the router.
    After the recent Firefox update, that symbol/picture changed into three dots, hardly visible. They still direct to the appropriate window.

    Using Firefox in my tablet (Android) the original link symbol is still shown.
    Any suggestion? Some bug in the update?

    :)

    Symbolic link (Junction/s), how-to mklink? Please help with Junction?


    Hi all, having been a member at Seven then Ten forums for a fair while I'm hoping to find a straight answer here..? Apologies in advance if this is too verbose.
    Windows 10 system booting from (UEFI) NVME with 2xSSDs + 2 MHDDs for storage...

    An application (Xperia Companion) which will not let me select or personalise the location for saving backups of my cellular phone data...

    Think I found a fair definition of the differences at the Computer hope site which would suggest it's a Junction I need:
    I want Xperia companion to save backups to F:\Sony Backups NOT the default C:\Users\GD\Documents\Sony. Would the Junction (link) allow me to to fulfill my wants and could someone please demonstrate the mklink commands needed?

    with thanks and regards,
    Dave

    Firefox does not show a particular link symbol

    Problem: Symbolic link to file is a folder

    I need to place a Firefox file named places.sqlite -- containing bookmarks -- to the OneDrive and create a symbolic link to it. But the link created is a folder link rather than a file link. This defeats the link from working -- Firefox does not find the
    file.

    Does this happen because of the .SQLITE in the name? Is there any way around this problem?

    Thanks.
