Hi

I recommend that you follow this article (bookmarked at the section you need) to find the passwords in your old profile to copy across and import them into your new profile.

(Make sure that you have Firefox closed before you start moving files or profile folders).

I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

Note that you need two file logins.json and key3.db to transfer the passwords.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
