logins and passwords add-ons bookmarks
Yesterday I reseted my pc and once I was able to get in and reinstall Firefox I did. Once signed in usually everything is there. I might have rearrange a few add-ons but its good to go but not this time. Everything was gone. My passwords, add-ons and bookmarks.

What kind of reset did you do? Did you choose to save your data?
Look for a folder called Windows.old

On Windows 10 it gave me two options one was keep my files (removes apps and settings, but keeps your personal files) the other is remove everything ( removes all personal files, apps and settings). I picked keep my files first but Firefox didn't sync correctly so I reset my pc again removing everything. Where do I search windows.old at?
Well, if you keep things, then
C:\Windows.old
has a copy of your old
C:\Users\username
folder where Firefox stores your data. But if you told Windows to remove everything... maybe not.
Example thread on recovering data from that folder:
When I searched windows.old this is what showed up. I dont know though.
Open the folder at the top of the picture.
So apparently I backed up Firefox logins passwords and most of my bookmarks with Microsoft Edge. So I just imported them back to Firefox. Thanks to everyone who tried to help. Much obliged.
That was very good work. Well Done. Please flag your last post as Solved Problem as this can help others with similar problems.
