My laptop operating system Linux ubuntu crashed. I had to reboot using new linux OS Linux Mint. Laptop now working but have lost all my search. I sometimes use DuckDuck to serach. Help in recovering my bookmarks.

I use the Firefox "password keeper". Today, I changed the password on a website. The Firefox app auto filled the new password. Everything was fine. But when I went back to the password keeper, there was a double entry for the website for which the password was changed. I inadvertently deleted the website (and password) that I should have kept.

Is there anyway to retrieve and restore that password?

Windows shut down my computer and when I restarted it all my data was gone! (Thanks Windows!) In order to restore my data, I had to create another user profile with adimn. privileges. That restored my desktop icons and other data, but not my bookmarks and browsing history. Is there a way I can recover those?

my hard drive got fried, i thought firefox would save my browser data if i was logged on so i thought my passwords and bookmarks would be saved but it isn't and i have no other backup other than +4 years old chrome ones and nothing is up to date there obviously so now i'm panicking

I recently came home from a trip and when I turned on the computer it started an update and when it finished I no longer had desktop, with the error "windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop is inaccessible" followed by "Unknown hard error" . Is there a way I can get my settings from the firefox records anywhere? to get my passwords?

firefox update 133.03 has wiped my harddrive of all profiles for the browser including backups even backup that were in different folders. How can I roll back now. I even tried to use a restore point from the day before and it did not help.

please, tell me, how I can restore my bookmarks in Mozilla after reinstallation of Windows on my notebook, if I don't had account in Mozilla? I had account only in google, and there is no possibility now to import reserve copies.

I updated my Firefox browser to the latest version (133.0.3) and lost all of my bookmarks (there were so many). This has never happened to me with previous Firefox updates. How do I get these bookmarks back? I am devastated right now and really want my bookmarks back. Please help.

UPDATE: I read several previous questions and support about recovering lost bookmarks prior to posting my question. None of them applied or worked in my situation. This latest update version 133.0.3 overwrote everything in my local Mozilla folder and my old profile did not seem to exist anywhere, but after much searching I did eventually finally find the last bookmark file (after selecting to view hidden files, searched for places.sqlite in my C drive) on my computer from before the update. Next step is to import them.

Bonjour Apres une mise à niveau de mozilla fire fox, je ne retrouve plus rien et ne peux aller sur mes mails comme d'habitude. Cela fait plusieurs fois que ça m'arrive mais en bidouillant un max j'avais réussi à retomber sur mes pieds. Or je suis en train de bidouiller depuis 35 mn et n'arrive à rien, on ne me reprendra pas à mettre à jour firefox si un jour j'arrive à le retrouver. D'ailleurs pourquoi cette "mise à jour" supprime systématiquement les programmes en place ....? Ne serait il pas possible de mettre à jour sans déprogrammer tout ce qui à été enregistré, et si oui c'est que vous n’êtes pas si doué ou c'est délibéré et c'est encore pire. Je vais creuser encore et tout fermer éventuellement pour aller voir ailleurs si c'est plus simple... Desolé Cordialement Claveau

Question: where can I find a key that has been changed, or when asked is it automatically saved an will appear when needed . Question: I am trying to recover everything-l also need to know (my finger slipped and lost what I was working on) not sure since I lost that info! But I think something like I should tap on user name, and something about a list of keys would appear? I do not remember what I was working on but somehow I think it was important? Recover is taking time but I need a lot to recover.I hope most of what I need to recover if they need a key it will be with (such as contacts!)what I am trying for recover. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me. Sorry for the long rambling but could not see how to shorten the question. I need help with other recovery info...

Hi

I had to update my firefox because I couldn't search anything because maulware was put in the search bar. It kept saying I couldn't go to any site because it might be corrupt. Everytime I opened it. So spectrum told me to one choice was to put firefox back in again and nothing was there fault but firefox wasn't keeping up with security. So here I am I have lost all my bookmarks of my business. Is there anyway I can have them reinstalled? Thank you so much for your help. Firefox has been my browser for a very long time years and years. Please help my business and me. This is disastrous for me.
