Yesterday, I accessed an old PC I have, not used for some time. Firefox suggested to reset itself as it hadn't been used for some time. I answered "yes". When I opened firefox again in my current PC I saw that several bookmarks had been synced with the old PC bookamarks, so I lost all the recent bookmarks in my new PC. How can I revover them ?

Hi, first disconnect the old PC from sync: Remove a synced device from your Mozilla account, then you can try this on your current PC: Open bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks (Ctrl+Shift+B) > Import and Backup > Restore, and see if you have a recent backup there.
