If I uninstall Facebook and then re-install it, what will I lose? Passwords? Contacts? Posts and threads? I’ll appreciate any suggestions or warnings from those in the know. |

After you reinstall, logging back in should get you back to where you need to be. So, make sure you have a note of your password so that you can log back in successfully. I stress, this is AFAIK, because it’s not a manœuvre I’ve ever tried! Please report back… |

Facebook on my desktop has recently gone bonkers; it fades in and out, keeps on what looks like buffering and will not load a second page. Even the notifications don't load. No other program has a problem. |

It's all showing up at the moment, so FB seems to have changed their code and broken the extensions. |
