Hello, I want to recover and snyc my history in to a new device. can you please advise how can I get all my websites and history in my new device?

i had to restore windows 10 (some things weren't working at all after some maintenance) i performed the restore with the option to keep the files i then installed firefox logged into my google account via gmail page then in firefox itself to restore bookmarks and everything else (same google account)(i had to reset the password via google account) now i dont get all the things saved/synced: no bookmarks, no passwords, extensions, etc. please help

bold text One of my vitally important issues synce my cell and PC tried to sync is that my Malwarebyte Premium went haywire and I began getting alerts from Firefox, saying "my files" got access to (something),,, and asked me if it was I who generated that. I guess the answer is yes.

I've contacted Malwarebytes Support, and their SYSTEM robotically tell me I have succeeded in logging in. But I am UNABLE TO ACTIVATE MY PREMIUM (PAID UP MONTHS FROM NOW... to get my info needed to activte my account.

Additional info: At, or about, the same day all these issues started, I clicked on the Malwarebytes account option to have Malwarebytes apply their BROWSER PROTECTION APP. i'm not certain of anything. Am asking YOU if YOU can diagnose.

MORE additional info: In early hours of trying to solve all these issues, I received lots of alerts saying to the effect that this-or-that app is being treated as a suspected security threat and, if it is NOT to click on a box to not post this alert any longer. I clicked that box EACH TIME. (SIGNIFICANTLY) SOME OF THE APPS TREATED AS SUSPICIOUS WERE APPS OF MALWAREBYTES ITSELF...

I SURMISE SOME OR ALL THESE ISSUES ARE BEING CAUSED BY CONFLICTS BETWEEN SOME COMBINATION of the above... but maybe just some two of them.

MORE INFO: A month or so ago I BOUGHT A NEW COMPUTER (THE CURRENT ONE). AND, when I first contacted Malwarebytes about all this, their SYSTEM notified me I had signed in to them from an UNKNOWN SOURCE.

MORE INFO: I looked at the specific EXTENSIONS in my firefox browser, so see which to DELETE, to see if I can then resolve all (or whatver one or whatever MIX) BY THAT MEANS.

MORE INFO: I tried removing the firefox app and then re-downloading it... but this may have been when I ended up with two copies of firefox.

There are more details, and guesses, as to what my resolve all these POSSIBLY RELATED CONFLICTS. But my brain has been turned to mush by seeking what to try in hopes of resolving -- then trying the solutions offered to me, NONE OF WHICH HAS WORKED.

The Firefox browser is BY FAR my choice of all (due to all the disconcerting ads and news and other bloatware all the others flood me with if I use them.

PLEASE BE AWARE that, when I seek support, or get steps as to what ROBOTS (including AI) all want me to tell them what my issue (S I N G U L A R) is... And I cannot get even live support techs to take into account that I do not have ONE support issue... but AT LEAST TWO CONFLICTING THINGS... which is what makes the steps to solve one of them independently DO NOT SUCCEED.

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

my dad accidently removed the bookmark bar and usually it's not a big deal especially since rustdesk is available and online, i restored it with two mouseclicks but ... is there a way to remove this option?

I bought a new pc and synced firefox with my old pc to transfer all my tabs and accounts. The new pc died within a day and i will have to return it to the manufacturer GMKTEC, the problem i have is all my accounts Ebay, Amazon etc are on it as well as my medical data. Is there something i can do with firefox to stop this information being looked at or used.

TIA
