Hello everyone,
I recently reinstalled my Linux system, Parrot OS, which comes with Mozilla Firefox. Unfortunately, I forgot my Firefox password, which forced me to reset it to log in.
Since this reset, Firefox no longer loads my bookmarks, extensions, or saved accounts.
Does anyone have suggestions for recovering this data? Is there a way to find my old profiles or backup files?
Thank you in advance for your help!

I opened firefox profile manager using 'firefox -p' and tried to delete one profile...firefox deleted all profiles except 'default' and 'default-release'...even with them firefox renamed them with some number suffix and created new folders with the same name ('default' and 'default-release')...I have checked /home/ubuntu18/.mozilla/firefox folder...all profiles/folders gone...UPDATE: As I was typing this there was power loss, firefox deleted old 'default' and 'default-release' too...How to get all profiles back?

Ubuntu 22 LTS, Firefox 131.0.3 (64-bit). My machine crashed last night, but when I booted it this morning to start figuring out what's wrong all my windows/tabs came up. (I have at least 6 windows (for organization of my) hundreds of tabs.) After 6 or so reboots (testing various usb device plug-in configurations) I'm finally done, but now only have 1 blank firefox window. I created an account for syncing so I wouldn't have to redo all that when I upgrade OS periodically; however, I didn't think this would happen, so I didn't sync before this.
I would REALLY like to get my windows/tabs back in the configuration they were. Under 'manage history' there's an import/backup option, with restore; under that, it shows Yesterdays Date with 563 items, but clicking on 'restore' for that tells me it will replace my bookmarks file...
And I don't know how to retrieve the previously synced data, having only used it in the (presumed) other direction.
Any clues welcome!
