After Windows crashed, I installed a new system and logged into Firefox using my account. But all my history, passwords, bookmarks were erased. I also went to my phone and everything was gone. I didn't erase anything myself. Is there any way to restore the previous state of the account? Are there any backups on the Firefox Sync server?

Hi

Thank you for your question about the Firefox Sync service.

It appears from your question, that you are using Firefox Sync as a back up service. This is not what Sync is designed to do. The Firefox Sync service takes a copy of the data you wish to include and transfers it to a second device (typically a mobile device such as a tablet or a telephone) running a copy of Firefox. The storage in between all attached devices is both temporary and fragile and is not stable enough to be (and is not designed as) a reliable backup service.

If you have a copy of your Firefox profile for desktop Firefox, you may be able to recover your bookmarks and other data. Please have a read of this article.

If you have a copy of your data on a mobile version of Firefox, please follow these instructions to connect it to Firefox Sync to copy your data.

I had Firefox installed on my desktop with Sync enabled. Everything — passwords, bookmarks, browsing history — used to be reliably saved and restored. This time, however, everything is gone. Nothing was synced: no passwords, no bookmarks, no saved data at all. I signed in with the same Firefox account I've always used.

It seems Firefox, for some reason, failed to back up or sync my data — even though Sync was turned on as always. This is a serious loss of information that should not have happened with Sync enabled.

As mentioned previously, Firefox Sync is not a backup service.

Do you have a separate backup of your Firefox profile?

No, there was just a synchronization on firefox(
