Search browser history for Firefox failed

[singeev]

Hello dear developers!
Thank you for the nice plugin!

Right after installing it and configuring the Firefox as a default browser, i'm getting an error "Browser History! Failed to respond".

I assume it's the same issue as in #29

Here's my log file: 2025-03-14.txt

Here's the exception message in the app:

does it work with Zen Browser?

[fahim-ahmed05]

maybe you've changed or created a new firefox profile!

@espdav, I didn't try it. I've installed the Zen browser, but the plugin doesn't have an option to select Zen browser to work with it.

maybe you've changed or created a new firefox profile!

@fahim-ahmed05, No, i've been working with the same Firefox profile for years.

@fahim-ahmed05, No, i've been working with the same Firefox profile for years.

Working fine for me! From the error message, it seems that the plugin is unable to find the profile folder.

[fahim-ahmed05]

I've added option to select custom profile folder. this'll solve your problem!
