Missing Passwords after updating to firefox 154 on Mac OS
My macbook ran aFirefox update, when i opened the application, my history, bookmarks and passwords were missing. I was able to locate the previous profile from the previous version of Firefox which I used to restore the bookmarks. But for some reason my passwords are still missing. On the old profile folder (backed up one) I can see the logins.json and Key4.db files which I copied to my current Firefox profile folder but im still not able to access my passwords and autofills. Please assist.

If Firefox starts up after an update without your bookmarks and other settings, check whether your data is available in a different profile:
Inside Firefox, type or paste about:profiles in the address bar and press Enter/Return to load it. The About Profiles page will open. This page should list at least one profile and could list many.
The profile that Firefox is currently using will show:
This is the profile in use and it cannot be deleted.
Please do not delete anything here; don't use any Remove buttons.
Do you have another profile named default or default-longnumber listed on this page? If so, you can check whether it is the one you were using recently by clicking its Launch profile in new browser button.
If it isn't what you want, simply close that new window.
If it IS what you want, click the Set as default profile button for that profile on the about:profiles page. Firefox will use it automatically at the next startup.

Note: If your bookmarks are not available in another Firefox profile, see Recover lost or missing Bookmarks for other solutions.
