Hello. After my last upgrade (v158.0.1), all my settings, saved passwords and bookmarks are gone. I tried to see if my old profile was still there, but there are two empty ones. This happened last week on Linux and now it happened again on Windows. Please tell me there is a way to recover it. I had some important stuff. I was a Firefox enthusiast, but after this I'm changing my mind.

Solved, fortunately, at least on the PC with Windows. I browsed manually my profiles dir and I found the old one, then I copied manually the files to the new dir. Not good, anyway, that the upgrade creates a new profile and hides completely the old one.
