Hi sdfitalia, Thank you for your question. I understand that after reformatting your computer, Firefox Sync does not sync.

Did you make a back up of your profile before you reformatted? Unfortunately Sync is not meant to be a back up, however when you attached a new device to an account as far as I understand the account data will merge.
