In the process tab of the task manager, there is a box saying "show processes from all users". Check it, it may show up.

If you install waterfox with firefox present, it will be done automatically. Waterfox is firefox actually, but it is a 64 bit version !

I am very happy with it. Much faster, and really nice.

Do you mean you saved all your links in a message?... If so, the easiest way is to open them one by one and bookmark them again.
