Formatted Windows, reset firefox password... can I still recover passwords/bookmarks from old files ?
Stupid mistakes were made - I reinstallted windows and when I opened firefox I realized, that I did not know my password and also was not sure about the mailadress. I finally found an account with my mailadress but reset the password - it said that all data in the account will be deleted if I do that.
I got the old files recovered, but everytime I copy paste the old key4, login and cert file... nothing changes withing the browser. If I copy the whole old profile folder and exchange it with the new one and then I open firefox it just says "profile could not be found" and then firefox closes.
Is there any chance of recovering my old saved passwords or did I screw up entirely ?

Hi
Are you copying the old profile in when Firefox is completely closed?
hi there, yes I am. I think I ruined it completely by resetting the password : ( i was so hyped for recuva being able to get the old data, but so far it does not work out at all, sadly.
