Ok.. I've been allowing Firefox to update on it's own as needed.. But HOW do I get my bookmarks back and passwords??

I've read many of the 'click here' click there results.. but I'm a user.. my first 'computer' was an Atari 800.. (I'm 58)

So.. please tell me.. and also 'WHERE ARE MY bookmarks?' I see the old firefox folder.. but the folders inside are empty?? Like huh?? This is getting a little frustrating.. Please help in 'clear' language.. Thanks

Sometimes when the browser thinks there is a problem with the profile, it will create a new one.


Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox? Look inside. Look for the folder with the latest creation date.

Type about:profiles<enter> in the address bar. How many profiles are listed? How many should be there? Also, open the profile folder in your file explorer.
