How can I regain my data from ReminderFox after resetting Firefox?

Is there any way to recover all the dates I'd recorded in ReminderFox after a reset of Firefox? I do have the "Old Firefox Data" folder on my desktop that includes RF files and, I believe, backups, but don't know how to use them. Thank you!

You will have to install the ReminderFox extension in the new currently used profile and copy the RF files/folder from the "Old Firefox Data" folder to the current profile folder. You can also check the Options/Preferences of the RF extension to see it has an import function to import such data.

hello, i'd try to copy the whole reminderfox subfolder from the backup on your desktop into your current firefox profile & re-install the extension: Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data

Thanks. I opened ReminderFox, clicked "the fox" then options and was able to upload my data from "restore from backup file" because Firefox had downloaded all my info into a folder called "Old Firefox Data."
