I am locked in safe mode and even if I changed my microsoft password it doesnt accept it. Right now I am in Linux and my microsoft password is in Firefox password on windows. How can I either import in on Firefox in Linux since there seems to be no option here or find and decrypt the password? Thank you

Hi,

Are you able to access the files in your Windows installation? If you have access to your files, it would be possible to recover your Firefox passwords, history, bookmarks, etc.

Details on how to do it are in: Restore bookmarks, passwords and data from an old Firefox profile

Let us know how you get on!
