Hi there, All the new password and password update I registered during approx. last year have disappeared from my account. Have checked about:profiles, nothing usefull there. Any idea what caused that and how to fix ? Make me questionned Firefox reliability and the use of another password manager. Thx a bunch, Viv

Hello,
You said you checked about:profiles, did you also checked about:logins ?
Yup sure. My old password are still there, but all thoses registered or updated in the last year disapeared
Go to about:profiles
Open Root Directory of your profile.
Check if you have logins-backup.json and/or logins.json.corrupt
/questions/1375713 How to recover passwords from logins.json-1.corrupt?
If you only have logins.json you can try on Windows (I think) Right-click: Properties > Previous Versions
questions/1085322 Yes! A million thanks. Got all my passwords back.
For people who find this answer: I opened my Profiles folder, right-clicked on logins.json, viewed Properties "Previous versions". It produced a list of three. In the list, right-clicked on one from last week, the only useful option was "Copy". Copied then pasted to desktop, where recovered logins.json appeared. Then copied current logins.json from Profiles to safe place (just it case), then deleted it from the Profiles folder and replaced it with the recovered version.
I think you should close Firefox and copy the full folder of you profile outside Firefox folder, just in case.
What is your operating system?
Do you use system backups (Timeshift, Time Machine, etc.)?
Do you use Firefox Sync?
