Recently I had a hard drive failure while doing a backup. Somehow Windows and almost all apps and personal data. was lost. I downloaded a fresh copy of Thunderbird and can't get past either auto or manual configuration because I lost and do not remember password. When I try to add a new account, I always get the THUNDER MAIL screen which is Greek to me . How can I enter a new password? or is possible to use the PRIMARY password? I am going to try and see if i can get a current profile to use . Is there an easier way to achieve this? I still have my 2 earthlink accounts but again no password.

Well, I am in a real mess. Three days ago I lost the ability to access my favourite website. I CAN access the website in the Brave browser. The website owner has told me that it is not a problem with my account with them so it must be a Firefox issue. Before this happened I had been trying to move and delete files on my laptop and have got very confused about EVERYTHING. In that I had deleted my Firefox recovery folder(s). I have managed to move them back into my Home folder before they expire. Now I am being asked to enter my "password" to initiate the restore. But the several Firefox passwords in my laptop are not being accepted. How can I get a new password? If that is not possible do I have to delete my Firefox account? What is my best way to recover from this mess? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
