Firefox Update Lost Passwords and logons I don't use AVG or AVAST
I was browsing on Pandora and Firefox brought up a notification that said it was running slow, would you like Firefox to fix this. I said yes, when it restarted my logons page was blank
Chosen solution
I don't know what you tried, but: Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox? Look inside. Look for the folder with the latest creation date.

Hello tidbitsmov,
As you mention in other threads about lost logins that none of the suggestions solve your problem, I have asked someone to take a look at your case.

The first one was the solution I had to use. On a side-note, one of the previous solutions suggested uninstalling and reinstalling, which I did. Which in turn caused a registry error and links would not work from my email. This has been an extremely frustrating multi-day problem for someone (me) who does not program computers, and just uses them.
FredMcD thanks for your help! I was able to fix the problem with your input.
