Sync: failure
I was forced to do issues with my windows to reinstall, not having the ability to backup anymore due to the errors.
So after reinstalling windows I install firefox, I log in and it doesn't sync. Searching for a solution I found one that stated, if you have a backup of your files restore those into the new firefox profile. I do that and it shows a syncing animation shortly. Nothing happens though.
I start searching for other solutions, there they state just make a new profile via about:profiles and log in. I do so and it works, it starts syncing, but the problem now is it synced what synced in that other profile. So that other profile never really synced as in it did not grab from the cloud but rather it only upped and with that I guess overwrote everything what I had there? None of my later bookmarks are there, I only have what I had as a physical backup now. Why does sync work so? Not my first fight with sync, but I never lost data like this.
Kinda wish the sync interface was user-friendlier, where I can see what is overwritten or at least that I can choose to upload or download from sync when I log in. Instead of it choosing for me to just upload...
