I had backed up my data (bookmarks, tabs, history, add-ons, preferences) using Firefox sync. I formatted my PC and installed a FRESH copy of Firefox. But when I tried to restore the data using FF sync and after logging in successfully, I was shown a notification saying that "Firefox will begin syncing momentarily" but my data wasn't restored. What should I do in order to retrieve the data that I had saved?

Firefox Sync is not a back up service unfortunately. Please consider in the future backing up your profile locally before reformatting your computer. Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles

These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
