Hi, Usually when there is an unexpected error, logging out of the account on the computer with the issue and then signing back in will resolve this issue. Please try this:
- Open up the Firefox Menu and click on Options
- Open Sync and remove account
- Close and open Firefox
- Repeat 1 and sign back in.
Does this resolve the error?

Tried that. No go. Same unexpected error issue.
Do you mean that you do not see passwords in the Password Manager?
- Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
Try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
No, tools/options/sync no go unexpected error
