Hi, recently I've been seeing a repeated problem where instead of having everything logged in and ready to go on many websites, somehow ALL of my logins get deleted, as if they never even existed. This is really troublesome because I have multiple google accounts and they have to be logged in in a specific order so that certain links actually go to the right account. This has happened twice now, the first time I thought it was one time weird occurrence, but now that it happened again, I want to know what the problem is and fix it. So I want to know, is anyone else having this problem? I know some websites log you out after some time, but really there are many where it should stay, like YouTube, Twitter, Reddit. Luckily, logins seem to be the only thing affected as bookmarks and browser history seem to be unaffected.

In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive, or written down. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox? Look inside. Look for the folder with the latest creation date.
