Hi, since you reset it there should be nothing on there to save.

You can check if you have an "Old Firefox Data" folder on the desktop in case the Refresh feature in Firefox has been used and a new profile has been created.

You would need the logins.json and key4.db files to recover the passwords.

If you use the Time Machine or other backup then try to restore these two file(s) from this backup.
