Bookmarks and Passwords All Lost I uninstalled Firefox due to an error and Firefox no long was working. Upon reinstalling I lost all my Bookmarks and Passwords. I tried everything to retrieve the bookmarks. HELP - I have been collecting them for years. Most importantly all my business websites & passwords are gone. How do I recover them? There is nothing in the “Old Firefox date file”.

Is there literally 'nothing' in the old data folder? It should contain places.sqlite, favicons.sqlite (files) and bookmarkbackups (a folder) for bookmarks and key4.db and logins.json for passwords.
