Why I can't sync firefox after using "restart with Addons disabled"? Why It's showing account not found?
I'm using firefox sync with multiple desktop and laptop, even with Linux and windows environments since long, without any problem. Recently, I've used "Restart with addons disabled" option. Since then I can't setup sync. It's showing account or usename not matching!!! When I've tried to reset the password then It's showing account not found!!! But I've checked several times about username and password. Interesting on my laptop Firefox sync works perfectly, without any issue.
I really need to solve this issue ASAP. I really , really want to continue using Firfox.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

Are you sure that you have the correct password for that account?
- https://services.mozilla.com/ Firefox Sync » Home

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

Is there still a name and password and Sync key saved in the Password Manager?
You can find the sync account password and the sync (recovery) key in the password manager on computers where a sync account with a specific e-mail address has been set up.
- Firefox/Tools > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
Look for:
- chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Password)
- chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase)
You can try to remove all services.sync lines from the prefs.js file in the Firefox profile folder and possibly delete or rename the Weave folder.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, problem is continuing. I'm posting the output of your suggestions accordingly :
1. I've no password saved by "password manager".
2. I've opened the "Profile Directory" and deleted the Weave folder and tried to sync again, but it's showing same error again. :(
Thanks.
