Well, I am in a real mess. Three days ago I lost the ability to access my favourite website. I CAN access the website in the Brave browser. The website owner has told me that it is not a problem with my account with them so it must be a Firefox issue. Before this happened I had been trying to move and delete files on my laptop and have got very confused about EVERYTHING. In that I had deleted my Firefox recovery folder(s). I have managed to move them back into my Home folder before they expire. Now I am being asked to enter my "password" to initiate the restore. But the several Firefox passwords in my laptop are not being accepted. How can I get a new password? If that is not possible do I have to delete my Firefox account? What is my best way to recover from this mess? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I have forgotten my password and even my username in Thunderbird mail. When I try to get a new password, they send it by email. Since I cannot get into email I do not get the code. I want to completely remove my account from the server so I can start fresh. This takes me to username and email + password. I enter the new details and the server having not deleted my account sends, "Incorrect email or password. This is why I want to delete it completely so I can really start a fresh setup. I am using Ubuntu 2404.

Thank you for your help.

Rod.

I have been using Thunerbird for many years. Lin fixed a problem with an f8 toggle issue last week but I had 2 downloads for thunderbird in my desktop I tried to open 1 of them and it said there was a file it could not open. I opened the other one and it asks for my password. I keep 2 notebooks with my passwords but I can't find one for thunderbird. I tried to do a restore in windows 11 but the restore point from weeks ago said it could not complete because of an open vpn or some other file. There are no earlier restore points because I had a new ssd and some memory upgrades. Is there a way to recover that password? Probably no problem if I opened it from the tray but I was working on a printer problem at the time and had the desktop open. Thank you
