The method of putting an older jsonlz4 and naming it sessionstore. It's not working. I've also tried session history scrounger and it's just saying "session history file contents couldn't be read". Any ideas, I've lost a LOT of tabs to it forgetting the previous session.

I've tried all files from the session backup folder including the update backups and I used shadowexplorer to get my session files from the 18th.

Hello! Recently I experienced some massive issues with my pc and it needed service, it was uncovered that my drives crashed and the data is gone, they tried to restore it but its all corrupted therefore I cant get my bookmarks back in file form.

My account was synched so all my bookmarks surely are in cloud, today I got the pc back from repair, but my account only syncs bookmarks from the spare pc I used during the repair time and those bookmarks are outdated by two years, the pc which went under repair does pop up in the logged in devices list, so all the bookmarks that were there gotta be stored in the cloud, can you help me recover them?

Best regards Sarah

I semi-accidentally closed all my inactive tabs. All 4799 of them.

I first synced them to pc to sort through them (the mobile browser couldn't open them without crashing).

Turns out, only a tiny selection actually transferred over to PC. I had no idea there were that many tabs open, so I couldn't verify the number that transferred over to pc.

When I closed the inactive tabs, I saw how many I had deleted, and realised I've lost about 90 %.

Is there a way to recover these?

I also wish there was a tab counter on mobile, so I could've dealt with it sooner, before it got out of hand.

Mozilla usually doesn’t restore all the windows I’m working in; when I open it, it only restores a few of them. I usually use the ‘History’ > ‘Recently Closed’ > ‘Reopen All Windows’ option, but this time not all the windows I need are being restored. My most important window, containing 1,000 essential tabs for various articles, hasn’t been restored, and it seems as though I have absolutely no chance of finding it at all; I don’t even have a ‘Restore previous sessions’ button. I don’t know how to get that window back, because restoring the tabs one by one would take an age and I’d probably lose a lot of them (it’s very important that these were tabs, not bookmarks). What should I do?

My Bookmarks are missing. I see backups under the profile/bookmarkbackups folder but when I manage bookmarks, they are not in the restore dropdown. I have followed the steps to delete the places.sqlite but when I reopen firefox, I do not see the bookmarks have been restored. I thought it might have been related to Norton Utilities so I renewed a subscription but no luck. I also have a json file with my bookmarks but I cannot choose it from Manage Bookmarks, either
